Rooted + Rind Cafe — Restaurant in Town of Bethlehem

I been to this location in the past and it was okay in person. But today I decided to try delivery through their website not only did the dasher not deliver one of the drinks but my partner tried the bagel and said it was burnt and tasted like paper. Also, he didn't enjoy the pumpkin spiced latte it tasted his words like garbage water. It didn't taste like pumpkin spice or coffee to him. My croissant was disappointingly small and oddly shaped in a square which is not a traditional croissant (I get some "croissants" are like this but I pictured it to be more in a crescent shape as that is what the word translates from French to English, what was served was a variation of Cubed Danish or Le Cube) and the chocolate there was hardly any in it, was very disappointed. I can't say what my drink tasted like as I never received it due to the delivery driver. Very disappointed over all in the quality of beverages and food for the prices...

I was very pleasantly pleased to discover that there is now a plant based spot in town, which is something that this region is lacking in across the board. I can say that it did not disappoint, the food is delicious. I like the layout of the inside as well, would be a nice place for a coffee chat. Overall, I think this place stacks up with some of the best vegan cafes that I go to in NYC, it would be foolish to overlook this gem.

Additionally, regarding the one star review that was left, I am constantly shocked that people don’t understand that orders are called in advance, reservations made, and some items being quicker to make than others.

I will be coming back here when...

This was a cute little stop that we took on our bike ride on the Helderberg to Hudson bike trail (Albany county rail trail) they have coffee, smoothies and breakfast sandwiches along with a variety of other things on the menu. There is a really nice outdoor space for eating with ample bike racks to park your bike. While we were there, 3 or 4 other groups of bikers stopped by. Food was good...staff was very friendly and we'd definitely...
