Lemon Crinkle Cookies VEGAN + GLUTEN FREE! Now available at both locations ! While taking baby steps towards adding Vegan and Gluten free treats to the menu, our objective is always to use the best and freshest ingredients. These cookies have no artificial color or flavor, just the natural goodness of lemon juice and lemon zest along with organic maple syrup. If you like lemony treats, we highly recommend you try these! Tangy from the first bite #vegan #glutenfree #ygkvegan #veganisdelicioustoo #freshlybaked #bakedfromscratch

Hopefully we can have Nigel Bowen exhibit back in the cafe during summer months Kingston has so many great local artists, let's show them some love YGK !

This product changed my home coffee routine. The Moka pot also known as an Italian cafeteria, is a stovetop espresso maker. Mine is a 3 shot version pictured above. Fill the bottom chamber, add fine ground beans to the filter basket and heat on a stove plate at the lowest possible setting. Patience and grind mastery may be key to the game. But yes, the shot that comes out is so creamy and satisfying without some of the undesirable characteristics of high pressure/high temper...ature extraction. Trust me, if you get this right, you'll be as ardent a convert as I (vid) have become. 38 years too late. Did you know that you can buy this Canadian ( Cambridge, Ontario) based product right from this post. Free delivery in Kingston. Whats more, @groscheinternational supports some incredible safe water projects in 6 countries. #everycupfillsanother #italiansknowbetter

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 13.08.2020

Vid @rougharoundtheedge and Aahaan spent about 5 hours creating this video, starting from taking over 120 shaky shots to painstakingly adding, editing, storyboarding, captioning and final production. And this is what makes family business so fun and exciting. I'm sure there are way better tools and/or marketing firms that can do this for a lot less headache but then where's the fun in that. We also spent the evening decking up Kingston centre in festive gear. Tomorrow market square, but don't bet on it.

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 06.08.2020

How to turn an incredible chocolate bar into a shareable, gift-able work of art? Well if you are @alicjaconfections, you package your delectable chocolate bars with the most unique artwork and make the package postable. Yes you read that right. Each bar can be posted through regular post and has a postcard back that can convey your messages to your loved ones.... These creations were so unique and eye catching that we just had to have them on our shelves. Stay tuned as we introduce you to the fabulous lineup of flavors.

Calling all artists, makers, artisans, creati-preneurs based out of limestone city, Napanee, Bath, Frontenacs and the surrounding areas. Kingston Coffee House has been at the forefront of promoting local art, craft, food and beverage products as well as giftware and services. We have 2 retail locations (downtown and Kingston centre). With our convenient locations and community centric patrons (a big shoutout to the Kingston community), we are ideally suited to take your sale...s to the next level and provide you with an even wider reach and brand recognition. As we head into the gifting season and winters, we at Kingston Coffee House would be switching up our retail space to provide larger retail display at both locations as well as our website. So if you are someone who makes amazing products and can't wait for half of Kingston to access them from a convenient place get in touch with us today. Space is limited and a lot of the shelves are filling up fast with some of our long time loves. If you are an artist - photography, painting, digital art or an eclectic mix of all, we are currently lining up our artists of the month program for 2021. Tag your favorite makers if you think this would be of interest to them. Image courtesy @anthony.buttazoni

Say #hello or #woof to the most hardworking members of the KCH team. #nationaldogday is just another pretext for us to dress up @joey.shadow and shoot a million pictures. Joey is our 5 year old Yellow Lab and Shadow is a 3 year old Golden Retriever. On the other side of the rainbow bridge JD, our first kid who would have been 10 years old.

Sorry but Kingston Centre is closed for the day due to staff emergencies. We apologize for the inconvenience. We will be up and running regular hours from tomorrow (Monday). Market square is open as usual and we also are at the Love Kingston marketplace from 6pm to 9pm.

Happy Independence Day to India. Colonialism and Imperialism meant that a rich 6000 years old civilization is celebrating its 74th Independence Day, but we have hope, resilience and courage. These trying times would pass and you would come out with strength on the other end.... Vande Mataram. Jai Shri Ram.

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 28.11.2019

Never get tired of these sunny market days.

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 18.11.2019

When you drive around and lug heavy stuff in the sun (like I @rougharoundtheedge do), you need your drink to be chilled, sweet and delectable. When you walk into Kingston Coffee House @ygkoffeehouse , DO NOT, EVER, be apologetic about how you want your drink. It's your drink for a reason. #extrasweetflavored #icetea #strawberry #orange #bringonthesugar #iceddrinks #summer #sunny #kingston #ygk #ygklove #yummy #downtownkingston #visitkingston #lovekingston #marketplace #buylocal #shoplocal #smallbusiness #weekend #peach #tea #tourismkingston #cityofkingston #paperstraw #sustainable #patio #amazing

Call us biased but the prettiest outdoor coffee stall is now running full tilt to keep you hydrated, fed and caffeinated through the lovely musical evenings at the #LoveKingston marketplace. Catch us 6 to 9pm on most nights and 11AM to 9PM on non market days. Summer isn't going to be here forever to do not stay in. The marketplace has seating options aplenty that are distanced and well sanitized.... #cityhall #cityofkingston #downtownkingston #kingstonecdev #tourismkingston #marketplace @ Springer Market Square

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 20.10.2019

Did you see the sky tonight? Just amazing. This was our first evening at the Love Kingston marketplace. @city.of.kingston, @downtownkingston and @kingstonecdev have done a commendable job of creating new ways of reviving tourist interest and bringing in music, arts and entertainment for our city dwellers to enjoy, while following social distancing. The numerous shaded patio tables on the square, the photo booths, the Adirondacks on market street are inviting, and are being ...diligently sanitized by city staff. Of course, the main attraction for us was not sales. We are across the square anyways. But this place offers us a chance to bring back some of our stellar staff into the workforce and also creates new and fun opportunities. We are taking this slowly but we will launch some really cool projects soon (unless we run out of money...which, as any local business knows, always happens) @ Springer Market Square

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 08.10.2019

Butter Chicken goodness on a naan A must have if you love the famous Indian curry , this sandwich is made following a slow and authentic recipe which ensures you get the classic butter chicken flavour!

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 05.10.2019

When the lockdown started mid-March, we were forced to pare down our staff from 15+ down to 2 (plus us @rougharoundtheedge @banerjeemitali ). @hurst2122 and @gunjanarora705 held down the fort, keeping doors open and businesses alive for the next two month. @hannahgreenwoood and @quinnsolar returned to the pack soon after.... As a business owner my focus is always on expanding services and business lines to increase employment and to have as much staff back to work as safely possible. It gives me so much pleasure that over the next week, we would be able to recall 3 more vital members of our small family. All Kingston Centre regulars would be absolutely delighted to see Hussein Maree back on shifts. Hussien brings his brand of cheer and his smile to his service. And yes we have some really awesome masks made locally by @awesome&beyond. Would you like to get these soft, filter pocketed and fun masks for yourself.

It has been 4 months Or 17 weeks+... Or 123 days Or 2952 hours Or 177,120 minutes Or 10,627,200 seconds Since you have had a latte with a bear in our cups inside our stores. Needless to say we have missed you. We have slowly, safely and cautiously chipped away 54% of this crazy year. We feel safe, optimistic and confident of our procedures and your support enough that starting tomorrow, Friday, both locations would open up to limited indoor seating space. We are ready to welcome you in, and serve the best coffee experience. We ask again that you be kind and patient as we serve you while following health guidelines. Masks are mandatory inside the store while approaching the counter, placing the orders, paying or getting served. Masks can be taken off while at your table. Groups are welcome too. Reservations are not required at this time. The phone number of one member of the table would be required as per the requirements of public health. Once again, we cant wait to start serving some insta worthy latte arts.

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 05.09.2019

Summer rains make the patio so much better. Washed, with that petrichor like smell and everything looking brighter. Drop by for a latte..pairs well with this mild summer weather. And stay tuned as we setup both cafes to have limited but much needed seating inside the cafe soon. As always, our processes would primarily focus on your safety and that of our staff as well as a relaxed cafe experience that you have come to expect. @ Kingston Coffee House Inc.

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 03.09.2019

We love the green vibes that the plants from @rerootfoundation have brought in that we might just consider making plants a permanent fixture. Honestly though, I'm so in love with these retriever themed beer steins that if you dont buy them in the next few days, I'll take them back to join my insane dog themed collection. Did you know, Vid @rougharoundtheedge has spent the last 5 years building up a pretty amazing and eclectic collection of articles that span a variety of mat...erials, styles and periods. The pothos is just to make your girlfriend happy.

The patio, the myth, the legend. Myth as it's the first and only appearance. it's not likely to make a comeback next year. And of course the views are legendary.... Bear with us while we eke out a few chairs and cushions and umbrella from our covid struck cashflows (no kidding). But we do promise the same extra ordinary hygiene and health measures that you come to expect of us. And plants. Having a patio is just another excuse for @banerjeemitali to buy more plants so more the merrier. The bees are loving it already and so are we. Patio trials today. Slower than usual service expected. @ Kingston Coffee House Inc.

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 08.08.2019

Happy Canada Day. We are open 8 to 6 at both locations.

Even our latte art bears have masks on. A big Thanks to all the customers who have taken the right steps in the common fight to stay safe. Remember to be kind to us, and all food and retail workers, healthcare professionals and service providers. Be kind to yourself as well. Big day tomorrow as the market makes a comeback. Also some really exciting news coming soon. Think coffee on the patio with the best views ;-) Masked bear latte art -> @quinnsolar

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 02.07.2019

Yesterday, June 27th was Multiculturalism Day Canada. Ironically it was also the day an Indian staff member was racially abused and cafe property was improperly handled by an irate customer who was directed to mask up before entering the premises. This post is not about that.... This post is about the reaffirmation of my beliefs and about my choices. I have been in Kingston since 2014 December, as a student and a worker, and later as a business owner and a community member. Yes there have been ongoing instances that have racial undertones and those singular instances are hard to come to terms with. But after that one incident, which I shared with considerable anger and dismay, I was quickly surrounded by members of the Kingston community. The outpouring of support, love and kindness and the collective sense of shame and apology over that one person's behavior was immense. Over a 1 day period, more than 33 thousand people watched the story on Facebook alone. Businesses, customers, friends, acquaintances and people from far and wide, called, dropped in, messaged, shared and commented. Our phones kept buzzing continuously. We were overwhelmed. This outpouring of support is amazing. We in turn did something for the staff that was a good way of getting the sentiment of the community across to her. We painstakingly printed out all comments received till 9 pm and have them put up as an installation at Kingston centre. I'm sure the situation makes some people uncomfortable. But I am no longer going to stay silent. This is not the first time things of such nature have happened in the community and it certainly wouldn't be the last. But we are here. We are watching. And we will be calling people out. ( shoutout to "SeekN.destroy" on Google for never having stepped inside Kingston coffee house but leaving a 1 star review on some moral grounds that are better suited south of the border ) @ Kingston, Ontario

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 22.06.2019

Is it not enough that business owners have to contend with troubling and uncertain times? Weighing survival of the business and employees against our own health and lives ? Is it not enough that we have to deal with confusing directives from provincial and municipal levels who on one hand are asking we do our best to open up patios, and serve customers from outside our region and on the other, are asking us to ramp up the sanitation and work for 8 hour shifts with masks on ? ...Is it not enough that following the protocols leads to slower service and irate customers who then leave a lasting 1 star review on google that impacts what's left of the business? Apparently NOT. We at Kingston Coffee House are deeply hurt and angered by what one of our staff member had to face this morning. She is from India and has been with us since 2018. @KFLAPH has made masks mandatory starting from today and we are imposing the same on every customer who enters the premises. One caucasian woman entered Kingston Center location today and was asked by our employee to wear a mask. In return, she waited for other customers to leave and started banging the tables and abusing the employee by saying : "you are a bloody Indian who should not be here, your mom and dad haven't raised you well". NO , THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE! As a BIPOC owned business, we would do our best to track her down and make her responsible. Bringing race into the picture was uncalled for and the ensuing racial slurs were horrid and inhuman. You can thank your lucky stars Karen that I wasnt personally at the store. You would've got more than your fair share of an earful had I been on site. ( We understand not everyone wants to follow rules and they are entitled to their opinions. We are only trying to enforce what has been made a guideline. PLEASE BE POLITE to every person trying to serve you in these confusing and challenging times. You have to wear a mask for a few minutes when you come in, our staff is wearing it ALL DAY ! ) @ Kingston Coffee House Inc.

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 16.06.2019

Dear Patrons, In view of the current outbreak and the Health department's directive, Kingston Coffee House will NOT be serving any customer without masks that are properly put on (covering mouth and nose). We have been open throughout the pandemic and possibly have a better understanding of what it means to conduct business safely during this period while enforcing social distancing measures within the premises. ... We will continue to operate under stringent hygiene standards and cleaning measures. We ask that you do not come into the stores without masks on. Stay safe and vigilant. Kingston is an amazing community and we will quickly have the numbers down to open more comfortably.

Kingston Coffee House Inc. 11.06.2019

We are overwhelmed by the love and support for the curated plants sale in support of Rerootfoundation @rerootfoundation . While the first batch of plants and cuttings sold out in 3 days, we are happy to inform you that limited numbers of these would continue to be on sale from the stores. The latest batch dropped off today has some gorgeous plants and terrariums as well as cacti.... And yes our cafe looks so much nicer due to the plants. @ Kingston Coffee House Inc.

If the beautiful summer, the stunning views and the impressive drinks menu weren't enough, we now have plants for sale Kingston Coffee House. As a BIPOC and recent immigrant, I have never felt a stronger urge to create a group that helps new canadians, immigrants and minorities, settle down to a life of respect and comfort in Canada. Reroot foundation @rerootfoundation is my attempt at solving some of the challenges that new immigrants face. ( who are also BIPOC for most pa...rt* Statscan numbers from 2011,2015 ) Reroot Foundation @rerootfoundation has lofty goals and ideals. Sometimes I feel very alone in this, but baby steps in the right direction are better than nothing. The plant sale is to raise money for the organization, with 25% of the proceeds going to the cause. To top it all, each tag with the plant gives you a dollar off on your next purchase at Kingston Coffee House locations. Need more reasons to buy ? The plant pots are thrifted and repurposed. All of them were handpicked by me. Most of them have unique qualities. The tags are recycled paper. And Father's Day is just around the corner! @ Kingston Coffee House Inc.

I realised that our feed is missing the most important secret ingredient at our cafes. Meet Joey and Shadow. Joey is a 5 year old yellow Lab. He is best for long drives, sleeping and staying at home. ... Shadow is a 3 year old golden retriever. He is an angel but needs a human petting him every waking second. @joey.shadow take a bow. @ Kingston, Ontario

#pennyforyourthoughts #pennyforyourposts Not saying that social media activism does not bring about change. But here's a fact, if everytime the hashtag #blacklivesmatter was used, a micro transaction of 1 cent went as a donation to a centralized cause/group, they'd receive 180,000. And that's only on Instagram.... If every time a black screen was put up yesterday, an auto donation of 10 cents was made, the amount would be 280,000. Imagine the changes that could happen be brought about. Here's a link to donate to a fund for George Floyd's daughter. https://gf.me/u/x6mn68 There are many similar suitable campaigns. The amount doesn not matter. The INTENT does. @ Kingston, Ontario

We cannot and must not stay silent any more. This is 2020. This wasnt ok in Pre-independence India, this wasnt ok in colonized Africa. How many Arbery, how many Floyd before we say THIS STOPS NOW. As a new immigrant and a POC in Canada we are grateful for the opportunities that Canada provides but we will not remain silent on the issues affecting humanity south of the border. ... And yes we face incidences in our own community. Fewer does not equal none. #blacklivesmatter #saythename #lookitup #georgefloyd @ Kingston Coffee House Inc.

The drink is a maple iced cappuccino and it tastes heavenly. But that's not what we want you to focus on today. We are happy to announce that over our experiments last summer, we have selected our choice of environment friendly paper straws that do not melt away.... Kingston coffee house is permanently moving away from plastic straws to these individually wrapped paper straws that are completely compostable and bio degradable (degrading to cellulose and plant based glue in 3 days). Our bit towards cleaner oceans and happier turtles. @ Kingston Coffee House Inc.
