Café & Bar · Schenectady, NY
Ready for a place that pours as much heart into every drink as you do into making tonight memorable?
From your morning pour-over to your evening cocktail, Uncle Ben's is your neighborhood destination on Front Street — where great coffee and craft cocktails share the same warm table.
Our Story
A spot that feels like home — with a much better cocktail list.
Uncle Ben's has been a Schenectady staple since day one. We started with a simple idea: create a place where the coffee is just as thoughtfully crafted as the cocktails, where the lighting is warm enough to linger, and where every guest is treated like family.
Whether you're grabbing a quick espresso before work, catching up with friends over brunch, or settling in for an evening of good conversation and a well-shaken Negroni — you'll always find your seat waiting for you at Uncle Ben's.
