Great little coffee shop just a couple of minutes from The Nest, in a wonderful old building next to the Rondout Creek. They recently opened a restaurant as well. They sell many interesting culinary provisions, plus fresh baked breads, bagels, pastries and treats. I ordered a croissant that tasted convincingly Parisian. Sure enough, they ARE French--shipped frozen, and baked on the premises!

Sightseeing and Things to do

Reputed to be the oldest street in the US with the original houses. New Paltz was settled in the 1600s by a group of twelve (the "Duzine") French Protestants who sought religious freedom here. The local Lenape tribes from whom they purchased the swath of land guided them to build in this spot, just on the east side of the Wallkill River. If you are interested in early American history, don't miss having a tour of these houses.

The original building was constructed in 1660. The church spiral is a local landmark which can be seen from miles off. Even if you don't go inside, you can meander through the 17th-century graveyard.

Hidden little treasure of a museum. This was the Bevier family homestead for more than 200 years. It started as one room stone structure and grew to become a large Victorian house. There is a fascinating collection of old tools, Civil War artifacts, a remarkable art and antique collection, and much more of historical interest. The colonial kitchen is fabulous! Very educational. Plus they often have interesting day-long courses. Worth a visit. Open Saturdays and Sundays 11 - 5 through October 24th, 2021.
