  Great little coffee shop with a variety of confectionery delights. Our coffees were gourmet with specialty ingredients such as rose and cardamom. The interior of the shop was much smaller than anticipated, though cozy. I also erroneously thought there would be a selection of food options, like sandwiches, but there appeared to only be a burrito available the day we visited. The coffees were expensive but that was expected since this wasn't an everyday coffee place; worth the experience.

  I wish I lived nearby, because this is my new favorite coffee shop. I’ve been vegan for ten years and I can’t recall ever finding a completely vegan coffee shop, let alone a confectionary! There were so many options I found it impossible to choose and we had to go back later. I had the rose cardamom latte and a chipotle cream cheese croissant, and I can’t recommend them both enough. I also love their ethics, and felt so comforted and at home with the decor. Noelle rang us up and was knowledgeable and friendly, and Avalon made our drinks so skillfully (really good microfoam on those lattes!) I’m gonna try to squeeze in another visit before we leave the area because it’s by far my favorite place we’ve gone. There is only one negative thing I have to say- it is great that they are so up front about using a lot of nuts, and make you aware about cross contamination. That being said, it would be nice to know exactly what nuts are in which items. My boyfriend is fine with cross contamination, he just can’t eat a few kinds of nuts directly. It would be nice to know whether it’s, say, almonds (which he can eat), or pecans (which he cannot). I wanted to share my food with him and was a little sad I couldn’t. But other than that my experience was perfect!

  During my visit to Lagusta's Luscious last fall, I had an extraordinary encounter with their chocolate confections that continues to linger in my memories. As a vegan for six years, finding delectable vegan chocolate hasn't been an easy task, but Lagusta has managed to master it. I can't quite recall the specific chocolates I ordered from my curated box of eight, but each piece was an explosion of flavor, decadence, and pure delight. Not only were the chocolates incredible, but the staff at Lagusta's were also friendly, patient, and eager to assist. They graciously answered our numerous questions, ensuring we felt valued and well-informed. The warm and inviting atmosphere of the place added to the overall enjoyment of the experience. I am so enthralled by Lagusta's Luscious chocolates that I would willingly make a special trip to New Paltz just to indulge in their delectable creations. Whether you are a chocolate enthusiast or a vegan seeking a remarkable treat, Lagusta's Luscious is an absolute must-visit destination.

  Took a trip from Fishkill to New Paltz to try Lagusta’s which has been on my list for a while. My daughter has been vegan for 5 years and I love chocolate and this was a perfect combination of our passions. We purchased a box of 8 truffles/bonbons, a chocolate bar, and two deliciously tart lemonades. My daughter was excited to have so many caramel options as she hasn’t had a good caramel in a long time. Their Mitzvah wall is awesome and the inspirational signs in the bathroom are, well, inspirational.

  Very tasty chocolates - and amazing that they’re vegan! A bit pricey, but they make amazing gifts.
