About Ugly Duck Coffee

Specialty Coffee Shop and Pop-up Espresso Bar for Catering / Events

Located at 89 Charlotte St, Rochester, NY 14607, Ugly Duck Coffee operates as a cafe serving Rochester in New York. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it.

This group covers the non-Asian restaurants, cafes, bars and food businesses that also appear in a mixed-cuisine food scene, including American diners, pizza, Mexican food, burgers, steakhouses and bakeries. Standard US restaurant norms apply: lunch and dinner service with a quieter stretch between, cards and tap-to-pay accepted almost everywhere, and a tip of 15-20% customary for table service. Fast food and quick-service counters expect payment up front and tipping is optional. Bars check ID for anyone who looks under 30, and the drinking age is 21 nationwide. Many restaurants in this group take reservations online through third-party platforms, while casual and fast-food spots are walk-in only. Sales tax is added at the register on top of the menu price and varies by city and state, so the final total is usually a few percent higher than the posted prices suggest.

The business lists hours on 2 days of the week. Typical hours are 7 AM–5 PM. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (585) 371-8932. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. Its website is uglyduckcoffee.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

Customers rate it 4.7 out of 5 on Google across 931 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded cafes & coffee in Rochester.

Rochester is in New York, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Rochester follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

The frozen coffee was really good. The β€œBBL” coffee was disgusting. I dont know what banana syrup they used but I had to throw the drink away. $15 for 2 coffees not including tip. Barista was nice though, sad the syrup sucked. I’m sure their other drinks are prob good.

This shop is pretty tight inside and nice for a short stop to enjoy a coffee and a short conversation. What is most important is that they make exceptional espresso drinks. This place ranks right up there with places I’ve been to in the us, Europe, and Japan. Highly recommend the Gibraltar.

Coffee was fantastic! My husband got the Banana Bread Latte and I got "The Snug" which was molasses bitters, milk, espresso and maple syrup. They did not have any food items when we went. The woman working there told us they tend to have baked goods in the morning but they sell out quickly.

Wonderful, cozy atmosphere. A great coffee spot located right in Rochester and in walking distance from several apartments/condos. The menu is limited outside of drinks, but every drink tasted amazing and delicious so it didn’t matter. I highly recommend the BBL Latter (tastes like Banana Bread). The next time I am in Rochester, I will definitely be back!

Excellent! I stopped for a shot of espresso, just to check if I’d come back some other time or not. The first impression was great! Bob was friendly, acknowledged my presence at the register and I only waited 30 seconds to put my order. He’s definitely the light in the place. I also ordered a PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE scone and a MAPLE PECAN scone, that I tasted while waiting for my coffee. Total: $9.25. I didn’t wait more than five minutes for my coffee, that Bob brought to my table with a glass of sparkling water. Pastries and coffee were great. The place is tiny, so there might be a line all the way through the door and to the curb outside, but it moves quickly, and they made good use of the space providing proportionally plenty of seats. I’m definitely recommending this coffee shop and coming back soon.
