Lagusta's Luscious
25 N Front St, New Paltz, NY
Crema's Take
“The vegan hot chocolate here is genuinely exceptional—rich, silky, and made with the same artisan precision as the house-made chocolates that line the shelves—making this as much a destination for chocolate lovers as coffee drinkers. The sprawling outdoor terrace and thoughtful design create an irresistible Hudson Valley vibe perfect for lingering with a book, and the staff's genuine warmth matches the quality of what's in your cup. If you're after traditional coffee drinks you'll find them, but you'd be missing the point; come for the chocolate, stay for the whole experience.”
What to expect
Specialty coffee, with creative signature drinks. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu. Family friendly. Parking available.

After years of ordering chocolates and having them shipped to Florida, I was finally able to walk in to this adorable chocolate shop and enjoy the space. I have never tried anything I didn’t absolutely love. Their chocolates are out of this world. Love the vibes, the kind…
