Over the weekend I visited Hudson River Coffee for my first time. I sat down for a few hours and enjoyed a few Red Eyes and a Balboa sub, named after one of my great heroes, Rocky, the Italian Stallion. I was a little skeptical at first when my friend recommended the place to me, Average Joe usually doesn’t hang out at these trendy places, but I was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere when I got there. I have no arguments, they had great coffee, seating, lighting, and music which included some light jazz and even some Frank Sinatra.
The coffee tastes extremely fresh; the beans are grinded right there, and you can taste the difference. I only had a few Red Eyes, I will have to go back to try some of their more advanced specialty coffees, I don’t think I will be disappointed. The Balboa was a typical Italian sub, nothing extraordinary, but I definitely have no complaints.The Hudson River Coffee house is located on the corner of Hudson Ave and Quail Street in Albany. It opened up just last November and is still going strong with live entertainment from local musicians at night. The coffee house closes late and opens early everyday of the week.
