Reviews of Kingston Coffee House (Coffee Shop)

Dana Roper

I stumbled upon this place and found more than 1 gluten free snack to go with my cappuccino! Quick and delicious. Cute gifts too. Def be returning!

Heaven-Leigh Labelle

Amazing staff and service! Delicious coffee with some of the cutest foam decorations. A lovely place with lovely staff and also a fantastic locally owned family business. I would highly recommend the Kingston Coffee House!

Mike Hector

Just as wonderful as the other location staff are always helpful and polite.

Linda Airey-Oksman

Great service, great coffee - free WiFi and seating

Ryan Rutter

Hot chocolate, tomato-mozzarella turnover and blueberry scone!

Janice Wilby

I've always had a fantastic experience here, whether it be the customer service as they help me learn and try new items, the drinks and foos, or the quiet and chill atmosphere while I catch up with a good friend. I usually come here for chai lattes for myself and a friend, as I've attached.

Joshua Cooper

Good coffee. Great staff.

Joan Mercier

I love the coffee. Most of the staff are nice but there’s one woman who never smiles, and not friendly at all (she seems like she wishes she could be anywhere else). I work in retail and I make an effort to talk to every guest. When I see here there I almost want to walk out. I find the space less cozy then I’d like but it’s convenient.

Perfect for lattes and sandwiches.

Ramses Morales

Great coffee. Good snacks. Good service.

Nicole Clarey

It's a very cute little shop with quite a few options.. not too many options on the cheeper side of things but you definitely get what you pay for. Very good coffee.

Gufran Faruki

Great coffee, friendly staff and very clean. Definitely worth a visit!

Natalie Graham

Best place for iced chai, staff are very friendly and I am so happy that they're open during Covid????????

Melissa Morris

The best coffee in Kingston! The service is always friendly and welcoming and the treats are delicious, too!

Jason Henderson

If you are looking to study there and need internet access I would rate 4 stars instead of 5 because it's a bit of a hassle connecting to the wifi. You have to ask the staff for a wifi code which is unique and can only service two devices for one hour. After that hour has passed you will need to ask the staff for another wifi code. If you can get past all that I would highly recommend going! The staff are friendly and the ambiance is really nice because of the large windows!!

Monika Kuzma

I went there several months ago with my three year old. The staff were amazing; the barista even made a little kitty face on my cappuccino, to the delight of me and my daughter! I would highly recommend this coffee shop.

JeninCanada

Know how to make coffee that is intense and flavourful, not a vaguely coffee flavoured cup of too much milk or water

Stephanie Van Belle

Friendly staff luv London fog

Di B

We got a moldy sandwich.

Sean Liddle

What a great Coffee House.

sneaky vlogger

Coffee really good Staff are simply wonderful No place better if you just need a moment for you even if the you is for two

Nikolas Jackson

I'm very picky about my coffee and Kingston Coffee House (Kingston Centre) consistently pours the perfect double espresso. Despite being quite busy the service is always friendly and fast; they've never messed up my order.

Lily Low

Wonderful cappicuino with homemade artwork in it. A little pricey but good atmosphere with wonderful and helpful staff. Interior could use a fresh coat of paint.

Barry Fry

Best pizza pizza in town

Ashley Loyst

Good service with amazing coffee. A little sad they switched from Monin syrup to Torani's and they should consider choosing a better type of soy milk. But it's fair trade organic coffee roasted in town and I'll definitely go back.

Kelly Greer

Best Americano’s in Kingston. Always very friendly staff. Impressed to see more local products in their store since the Covid-19 pandemic started. Businesses helping each other is always a good thing.

Neil Greenwald

Really nice staff good stuff fast service

Jordan I

i worked for the owner of coffeeco, he is a really humble guy and we made great coffee together, check them out!

Kelly

Very nice place

Chrystal Wilson

I wrote the owner of the coffee house recently to privately discuss that I sat in his cafe for several hours and watched several people come and go from the tables. The staff on shift did not once wipe down a table between customers, nor did they wipe down anything else. This happened on both occasions. These measures should be in place regardless of covid. In addition to that, the bathroom was out of hand soap for two weeks. After I wrote to the owner, he did not bother to reply. I won't be supporting this business anymore, and recommend you dont either, especially during covid.

Julia Phillips

Just a bit pricey (almost starbucks prices) but good stuff. The lady that made our coffees was so friendly.

Mihail Isopescu

Always a perfect cup of coffee for the ride home. Excellent service too!

Daniel Snider

Best cappuccino in kingston

Amun Chawla

The best pumpkin spice lattes!

Nicholas Jean

Delicious iced lattes for a treat on a hot day. Can also attest to their creamy smooth matcha lattes. Excellent, friendly service and fun latte art ???? ???? ???? Staff takes their time to create a beautiful cup, everytime. A favourite Kingston business!

Francis Wooby

Great coffee, Great service! So happy to have you back! Thank you for caring and being awesome!

J Beechu

They have the best Veg. Seamus I tried in Kingston. Real Indian way ( except put sweet corn!) But it is not Spicy...

Edward Allan

Amazing scones!

Wendy Mcdonald

Chill cafe, and they make a great Americano. Good location, easy parking.

Elizabeth Whenham

Amazing staff with a great sense of humour, the coffee is really good, and the pastries are to the same standard. If you want coffee better than Tims (not a stretch I know) and a latte beyond Starbucks this is the spot.

Ted Hsu

Great coffee

Michael Amesse

Fantastic coffee. Great service and atmosphere. I was in a large group and they let us rearrange tables. Overall a great experience! I will be coming back. Oh and the carrot cake is heavenly!

David Kim

Great lattes

Soroush A

Love the place

Florina Truica

Quality of the product is great! But I'm never going here again. Management responds to concerns in social media (here and Facebook) with snark and defensiveness, never kindness. It's unbecoming and is a major turnoff. More than that, there's a sign in store lamenting how price increases are due to employees having to be paid more. Don't blame your employees that your business model relies on paying them as little as legally possible.

Grace Laing

(Translated) Thank you all to the trading company for this shopping mall (Original) شكرا لكم جميعا إلى الشركة التجارية على هذا للتسوق عبر الماركت

Bryan Brassington

Always lovely customer service and delicious drinks! :)

Joseph Elliott

Free Wi-Fi, great fast service with a smile. Will be back. :)

Emilie Watson

Love Coffee House Kingston. Has been coming here since before the name change. Some of the best coffee around. London fogs (smogs) lattes, espresso and snacks are so good! Always something local that you can pick up and take home. Servers here are the best! Kudos to the only guy in YGK that I have met so far that can make animals and not just hearts! All locations are also very clean and comfortable! Perfect little coffee shop(both locations) Would recommend!

Rodolfo Santo

Stale cookies, great service

Kasia GT

very friendly staff, good espresso, and wonderful atmosphere. also, the latte art is fantastic here! always makes my day. i would give it 5 stars except their matcha tea latte’s are pretty terrible… everything else though is top notch. really good muffin selection too! they also sell a ton of local products from kingston and always advertise events going on in the community. a great addition to the kind of depressing atmosphere/mostly fast food places at the kingston centre.

Martha Williams

Staff always makes me feel genuinely welcome with their friendly attentiveness. I've tried a good number of their menu items, and have always been quite happy with them. Really nice place to enjoy some good coffee with friends, or on your own.

Instagib

Best coffee in town IMHO.

Sean S.

The tea I had was pretty flavorless and the atmosphere was dead. I could of heard a pin drop in the place, no music or sound of any kind, it was like sitting in a library. Pretty dirty as well, we had a silverfish crawling around our tabletop. It was pretty pricy as well, and I usually go to Starbucks, so that’s saying something.

Jasmine Estella

Convenient when you're in a rush to take the bus - it's only a few steps away from the bus terminals. Decent coffee, small but delicious selection of baked goods and friendly staff to boot.

Chris W

Amazing place! Amazing plants! Amazing food and drinks! Great place to sit and relax and chill.

Robert Thompson

Great coffee

Shahida Hoque

The best latte art in Kingston ! Freshly roasted organic coffee, delicious baked goods and a great collection of vegan and gluten friendly treats ! Love the vegan masala chickpea sandwich ❤

Mark O'Meara

Good customer service

Emily Mulligan

Great coffee and scones! Nice atmosphere, not too busy. Wifi code didn't work, but didn't bother us too much.

darren decoff

Friendly staff! Great service. Ordered a Capuccino that came with a cool Cat design on it. The baked goods were good too. Fast service, clean well kept store. Good seating and decor, nice environment to relax in

jesse

The staff has no idea how to make a cappuccino, let alone a dry cappuccino. One person told me they could not make it dry because it took to much milk... foam is full of air, it takes less. Another staff member told me this is how they are made at coffee shops... well it's the only coffee shop I have been in that continually and truly has no idea how to make a pretty simple beverage.

Catherine DeVreeze

Great coffee and baked goodies made with love.

Vincent Colussi (LiquidMetal92)

I had a wonderful experience. I must have met the friendliest barista going here.

Draven Gilpin

Hello, Could we have the email of the owner, we need to ask some question to do a marketing plan for the store? The problem that we can not be able to come between 07:30 to 02:30 pm because we have classes. Could you please help us to do a perfect marketing paln for your store? Thank you, Sultan

Sultan Asiri

Great place, support your local shops over the terrible quality of tim hortons/McDonald's coffee!

Sam Allan

I got a bear in my latte!!! That barista deserves a raise.

Altair Ioffe

Worst Americano ever. Weak. No Creama. Full of grinds.

Anja Troje

Amazing staff and customer service! They have a great selection of unique soups, sandwiches, and baked goods and a long list of drinks (hot and cold) to choose from. I’ve never ordered anything I didn’t like and they’re great at suggesting new drinks to try based on past orders. The staff have a great attention to detail and are amazing at what they do. They also make their own whipped cream in house!

Glenda Staddon

Very busy place.... Friendly and fast service ovo

nathan duffy

Been here 3 times, 1st 2 times it was great amazing coffee which is why I'm a repeat. Today the coffee was horrible. Old and cold. Loses a star for consistency. Starbucks has consistency for simple drip coffee to perfection. Will return.

Marcela S.

Amazing coffee

Rasa Krokys

Love this little coffee house-it has real community feel to it, and delicious cappuccinos with dairy, soy, or nut milk, which is more than I can say for some competitors. Great service always and delicious gluten free treats, vegetarian options and regular food.

Plenty watched Videos

Great service. Wish that the price for food and desserts was lower. Also, more choices of sweets. Cheese cake or ???? kind. A soup would be nice for lunch, too.

Katie M

While I have only been to your place once, it was a wonderful experience. In light of recent events at your establishment, it's important to me that I let you know that you have my support and that of all sensible, decent people. Do not be discouraged. We love you!

Mandeep Gabhi

Whenever I am in the area and need a coffee I stop into Kingston Coffee House. They always have a special drink that tastes amazing, and I grab a scone or two if there are any left. Great staff, friendly atmosphere.

Dustin DeP

The chai latte that I ordered was really good but the prices are too high

Adam & Jessie Cruickshank

Navdeep Sepla

I love the coffee and the atmosphere! The staff are wonderful! I recommend to people that haven't gone to this shop to go!!

Seek N. Destroy

It's a good coffee shop. The service has always been good too

Cat London

Somebody mentioned in one of the other comments about the snarky and petty condescending replies by the owner of this. I fully agree. "Management responds to concerns in social media (here and Facebook) with snark and defensiveness, never kindness. It's unbecoming and is a major turnoff."

Josie Cifala

Great service and wonderful snacks!

Valencia Bedard (V)

Always good coffee and customer experience dealing with these guys but it's especially a cut above the rest when Brad is behind the counter, making the whole store feel more welcoming as a whole and the coffee absolutely splendous. I look forward to supporting such a fantastic store and barista in the future!

Black Sheep Thinking

Friendly staff, great food and drink!

Kyle Lacasse

Amazing people, amazing coffee!!

Michael Rankin

Great service, fresh and tasty food, and great tea lattes. The takeaway meals are absolutely delicious. The staff are friendly and everything is always clean and fresh. They are also doing a great job to keep customers and staff safe during the pandemic. Highly recommend.

Jesse Whale

Great coffee and very creative latte art. Very impressed.

Pierre Gaucher

Friendly staff, great coffee and cute latte art.

Stephen Ambury

Pleasant local coffee unit, with beautiful lattes, choice of teas, wide range of baked goods, sweets, sandwiches and local honey to top it up.

Garret Cree

Great coffee, very artsy latte I got today. Thanks guys. That made my day.

Lisa Gurran

A cozy atmosphere with great locally roasted coffee. The staff were friendly and openly answered any questions I had about the coffee they served, preparation methods, and roasting methods. Overall a great experience.

David Auger-Villanueva

Always being a fan of this coffee shop. Taking one star off cause the coffee quality is very inconsistent. You really need to know the right barista. The owner and Brad make good coffee. Others might disappoint you, deeply (my cappuccino and americano tasted horrible and grinds flowing all over instead foam).

JB

Nice place and friendly service, but overpriced.

Elmo 93

Amazing local coffee shop serving some of the best baked goods I’ve ever tasted and great coffee sourced with local ingredients. Definitely give them a try (with appropriate PPE) if you’re travelling through the Kingston Centre or waiting for a partner at one of the many stores around the area.

Jimmy Hassan

An old favourite for meetings

James Brown

Love it

Holden Breau

Went this morning to have coffee and do some work on my laptop. The latte was excellent but the way they handle wifi is really irritating. The hand out paper slips with a code. Primitive. Then when it expires after 1 hour and you need extra time, they demand a 2nd purchase or no additional time in the internet. Great way to lose customers. Not worth the latte. I’ll go elsewhere.

David Dufour

Good selection of teas, baked goods

Colin Ennis

Good coffee that is roasted locally. The pastries are so yummy

Dave Watts

Great coffee and service.

احمدمحمود حماده

Good coffee

Vidyut Banerjee

Great coffee and great service. Not Timmies prices, but way beyond Timmies coffee and goodies!! Worth a little bit extra (it's not all that much more either, yet wayy better).

Storm Ygk

Have been several times to both locations. The staff at both are friendly, enthusiastic, and make some friggen' beautiful latte art. Please not that the art in this photo is a little distorted because I got excited and started drinking it before I thought to take a photo, but I can confirm it tastes as good as it looked.

Alyson VN

Some staff were okay but others didn't make an effort to help when the WiFi codes did not work and after the 3rd they gave me, I was locked out from the internet. When the entire reason I come here is to have a place I can enjoy a coffee and work online, this is a big problem. I'd rather go somewhere like Crave downtown after this experience.

Mathew Wicksey

Great staff and delicious organic fair trade coffee!! Guilt free coffee! Support local.

David Currie

I keep going back because I like the service and atmosphere. Yesterday I tried the pesto chicken item; I liked it.

Laura Lamarche

Great holiday drinks. The Chai Nog was excellent!

Lisa

Great little spot with a homey feel and yummy treats.

David Fair

Great place, great service, great scones.

Glen Cowlan

Chai tea latte with almond milk was great ???? plus the happy hour between 5-6 for half priced hot drinks is nice. Ive had a few baked goods here and everything they taste hard and old .. And the inside could be a little cozier, really needs an update..new flooring and paint ..also the tables are usually super wobbly and can spin around. For being so expensive I would hope they could afford some renos..

Greg Simpson

Consistently Amazing!! ????????????????

Amanda Wilson

Really good cappuccino with almond milk, friendly staff, relaxed place

Fariz piruzpey

I like this place. A nice neighborhood coffee shop with a friendly feel. Coffee and food are always top notch. Place is spotless! Great covid protocols. Staff are amazing. In fact I dropped my phone in the parking lot and someone turned it into the staff. They figured out how to message me to say they had it and it was safe. Above and beyond and I am truly grateful!

Sherie

Wasn't very busy while I was there, service was slow

TUCK YIONG

Great coffee. Staff are always friendly. Always disappointed when my shopping trips happen outside their hours.

Jennifer

Terrible! Expensive! I bought 1 lb coffee for $ 22,5. I also want to try a ground coffee besides whole beans. I especially asked them that is your grinder perfect? Does it ground uniformly? They told me yes! However, it was terrible. You cannot use their coffee with nonpressurized basket, even for pressurized basket. Reply: Thank you for your reply. First of all, I am not saying anything about the cafe since I never try it. I am only saying about the price of your coffee and the quality of your ground coffee. I am sharing two photos for your ground coffee. One of them is with tamping, the other is not. Just tell me are you thinking it is a really uniform? Do you need a video record with this coffee when I try to shot an espresso? With a nonpressurized basket I claim that it is impossible. Since my grinder was broken at that time, I needed a ground coffee for my espresso machine.

Jason S.

Great service, and a good atmosphere to sit in and have tea on a rainy day

David Smith

Nathan Holwell

I was just wasting time waiting for my car to be finished and walked by and saw it was opened. Decided to try an Italian soda. The guy working was really nice, and the soda actually tastes like I'm eating fresh raspberries! So good. :)

Mark Petty

Coffee@its best

Darrian Forth

Noisy no control of children in premise

Holly Craig

I always love coming here. The atmosphere is so warm and inviting, plus the huge windows mean it's nice and bright inside. The live plants are a good touch.

Jose

Nice place.

Naoko N.

Small menu and no cold drink options. Good coffee

M-C Montreal Local - Food Lover

Good coffee. Nice little snacks. Attentive service.

Ian Bayne

Mediocre service. Mediocre coffee.

C J

Hands down.... THE BEST coffee in town! They have all the milk options you can think of, a warm and very clean/tidy atmosphere, and such a friendly group of staff. I love this company :)

Annie Peralty

Love the coffee, and treats this is my go to place!

Ro Green

I went in thinking that I would be able to get a chai latte one of the simplest drinks that I tend to order at every coffee shop but I was wrong. I ordered my chai latte and got frothed milk, the only spice to it was the ones I added, definitely not worth the 4.75. I also ordered a blueberry scone, I don't know if they know what a scone is supposed to be like, this was not a scone the best descriptor I have is a massive corn pop with blue berries as the taste and the texture was that of a puff pastry. I would suggest staying away, definitely not worth the over priced drinks or food.

HARUN KIR

Great place, friendly staff and wonderful coffee house vibe. Matcha Latte for the win! Holy cow was that delicious!

Jim Wadleigh

Coffee harsh and bitter; ambiance sterile. I wouldn’t likely return

Jen Storring

They have the yummiest Italian sodas and samosas!! I picked up some coffee and chocolate biscottis as well and they were a huge hit with my friends. Very sweet and helpful staff!!

Fitzzz

This place seems to always have someone there from the community to chat with, often just busy enough to know their good with enough seating, and the staff are friendly and fast. Well worth a good tip and a nice thank you. The coffee and treats are fresh and fabulous everytime you go.

Entrepid

Perfect espresso/americano, and great staff.

Jamie Cotter

Awesome coffee, friendly staff, good vibes????

This is the best coffee and tea place in town. Excellent service, delicious homemade food and amazing homey atmosphere. Looking for a place to meet friends or business associates? Look no further. For downtown location check out the Kingston Coffee on King St.

Laura Riopelle

Organic coffee choices, an A+ option for me! Tasty options but limited menu.

Kale L

Amazing and friendly staff, tasty sandwiches and great beverages. This is a favourite of mine.

Mukesh Kumar

Great coffee and friendly baristas!
