Village Hands Cafe
1010 NY-17M, Cold Spring, NY
Crema's Take
“Village Hands Cafe is a genuine small-town breakfast destination where the owner remembers your name and the harp player might serenade you while you eat—it's the kind of place that makes a detour worthwhile if you're anywhere near the Hudson Valley. The menu executes the classics (think perfectly cooked eggs and fresh pastries) without pretension, and the service strikes that rare balance between attentive and unhurried. Be prepared for a wait on weekends, but locals will tell you it's absolutely worth it.”
What to expect
Classic coffee drinks done right. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

This place is so cute and looks like my type of small town regular breakfast joint. I love the atmosphere and the servers are great. The lines and wait times have been pretty long every time I've come in though, even when it's not that busy, so I just try to accept that it's…
