The Eleven at Lark Hall
351 Hudson Ave, Albany, NY
Crema's Take
“Tucked inside Lark Hall, The Eleven blends coffee culture with a vibrant music venue atmosphere, complete with Grateful Dead-themed decor and a creative menu that ranges from thoughtful espresso drinks to inventive brunch items like their celebrated Stella Blue grilled cheese. The space strikes that rare balance of being both a serious spot for specialty coffee and cocktails and a genuinely welcoming hangout for families, groups, and solo travelers—especially if you're catching a show next door and want to settle in for a while beforehand.”

The Eleven is a great place witha fantastic staff. Very good beer selection! Really enjoy hanging out there before a show at Lark Hall! Highly recommend!!
Ordered an espresso “martini”, $16, served in a pint glass 2/3 full with ice. Learned afterward the unfriendly bartender was the owner, Jen. You would think a bar owner would know better and do better. Drink was good, not great. Nice atmosphere but stop with the overpriced, half assed, incorrectly made drinks.
In town for the weekend- this place was one of my must do’s. Brought family here for brunch- the waffles and cocktails were amazing! Love the Grateful Dead themed menu and music memorabilia. We sat in the back room - awesome vibe and ambiance. It was my Mom’s 80th birthday - they brought us a complimentary waffle for all of us to share. Truly an amazing experience- we will back! ✌🏼⚡️🎸
I'm so excited for this place! I only went for drinks tonight, but after looking at the menu (with Vegan options) and experiencing the vibe I'm coming back soon!! The staff were great, the space is welcoming and it has a lot to offer. Not only do I need to come back for their evening menu items, I'll need to come back during the day to check out the coffee shop! Like I said at the beginning, I'm so excited for The Eleven!
Everything was great! Me & a group got one of everything and shared because we just couldn’t pick- & it was all amazing! My favorite was the Stella blue grilled cheese, & the burrata was delicious!
