JACOB ALEJANDRO - Albany
Coffee Shop, Albany, NY
Crema's Take
“Jacob Alejandro brings creative, seasonal flavors to Albany's coffee scene with drinks like black sesame lattes and sweet corn lattes that go far beyond the basics. The modern space strikes a perfect balance with both cozy indoor vibes and a backyard patio area that fills up fast on weekends—ideal for lingering with friends or settling in solo. Beyond the excellent espresso, their chocolate chip cookies have earned rave reviews, making it a spot where people happily return twice in one weekend.”

Great coffee, vibes and flavors. Thankful to Kellie for her service! The black sesame latte was fantastic! ☕️🌿😊
I first learned about Jacob Alejandro from their stand at the Troy Farmers Market. We enjoyed our cold brews in the backyard space. We really enjoyed it here and have recommended it to our friends.
Beautiful atmosphere. There is a paio area but it fills up quickly on a weekend. I got the vanilla citrus iced latte and it was delicious. I like my coffee light and sweet and I didn't need to add anything to this it was the perfect amount of sweetness without being to much. I unfortunately did not try any food items but they looked delicious. Also right across from Washington Park which made for a great walk. I was able to enjoy the atmosphere then grab a to-go cup to walk the park.
Very modern/fancy looking coffee shop with outstanding espresso! I had the seasonal sweet corn latte and it was amazing! Plenty indoor and outdoor seating available to hang out as well. Service was friendly and helpful. There is also some baked good if you were looking for a quick bite (the chocolate chip cookie looked really good). Prices are on the higher side but I forgot about the price as soon as that first sip was taken.
The coffee and chocolate cookies were so good we had to run it back twice in the same weekend. The chocolate chip cookies were FANTASTIC, TERRIFIC, SPECTACULAR! The ambience was so beautiful, loved the green and bronze accents. Lots of seating in different areas throughout that gave different vibes, including outdoor seating. & the service was great. Staff were inviting, friendly, and patient. All signs of great customer service!
