Buds On Jay

"This place peaked my interest because it is always jam packed when I come downtown on Sundays. Yesterday I decided to give it a try and all I can say is wow, I found my new favorite spot in Schenectady! I had a hard time choosing my Latte because so many sounded so good, but I went with one of their favorites on the chalk sign, the Baklava, YUM!!!! I got a banana muffin to go with it and a breakfast sandwich that had avocado and spring mix, and both were delicious. They told me the muffins are made there and you could tell, fresh and amazing. ♡ While I was waiting for my food (which was not long, surprising with the line). I heard one of the staff from the kitchen talking with people as she brought their food, and I loved she knew so many people by name. They obviously have a lot of regulars, and I can see why! The food was excellent and the service and atmosphere felt like being a guest in a friend's home. I'll definitely be back! Great job Bud's on Jay! - Lauren"

"I ordered a breakfast burrito with bacon, but received no bacon, barely any cheese, a ton of eggs and potatoes which were undercooked and flavorless. Gave it to my dog so the food wasn't wasted at least."

"This is one cool place where you can sit at any given time and enjoy your food and a great atmosphere around you this was my second time going there with my body and we love Buds on Jay, definitely a place you must check out."

"Great little spot for coffee & breakfast or lunch! Really happy to come here, they have a nice cozy spot at the start of Jay St, right across from Johnny’s. Perfect for a quick coffee or bite, or stay and relax and have a seat outside. I didn’t get the coffee this time but the breakfast sandwich was EXCELLENT and the bagel was delicious. Service was top notch, I really can’t wait to come back and try a latte!"

"Corned beef hash was decent but could stand to be crispy, was a bit mushy. Got bagel for avocado toast so it could survive delivery, but they didn't toast it. Also it could of used salt. Breakfast burrito was ok, could use some sorta sauce and crispier potatoes. A couple items were missing, but that could of been the door dashers fault Coffee was good!"
