Coffee is good but they are NOT gluten-free. I was told they only have gluten-free options on occasion. It also appeared as though the gluten-free options would be kept with the other pastries

Fantastic coffee house that serves a good choice of hot drinks and a yummy selection of pies, quiches and baked goods.
We ordered the Gluten free Coconut Cream Pie that was absolutely delicious. Chai latte and Sunup Coffee were good.
The fabulous artwork dotted around the cafe is for sale too.
Extra seating is available upstairs.
Bathroom was immaculate.
Parking was a tad squishy.

As a part of my Rochester Coffee Crawl, I tried Hydra Coffee. I got the bananas foster latte (iced with almond milk) and it was really good! The merch and the vibes of this place is adorable. I loved the atmosphere and the fact that they had an upstairs area as well.
I’m a sucker for cold foam and creative/artsy lattes but this latte was definitely doable! It was all of the requirements of what you need in an authentic latte. When I come back to Rochester I could definitely see myself coming back to get some coffee!
Of course, I didn’t leave without grabbing a gluten free strawberry jam bar (which was absolutely excellent) and a sweatshirt! The staff was so kind here as well and gave me great recommendations on what to get and what they like from the menu!
