Reviews for Sugar & Spice Cafe and Spice Catering in Poughkeepsie, NY

I get takeout from this restaurant once or twice a month and it is always excellent! Good portions! Once in a while, I go into... the restaurant and have some thing to eat in. The staff are so friendly and helpful! This is the first time when getting takeoutthat I was somewhat disappointing! I ordered a salad and I ordered chicken gumbo soup! I?m not quite sure if they were short ofchicken!? There was hardly any chicken on my salad and there were two of the tiniest pieces of chicken in my soup! First timeever disappointment, and all the times I have gone! I will add, I will continue to go, because I feel it was an off day ! Read more

We hired Sugar & Spice to cater our daughters baby shower. They called a week before to make sure there were no changes to the... menu, delivered the food to our house, and were punctual . Everything we ordered was amazing. There were nothing butcompliments from all who attended the shower. I was told someone who was at the shower went to the restaurant and told theowner the sweet mashed potatoes were wonderful. My husband wanted the recipe. BTW, this is Karla not Steve. Read more

I am shocked with the lack of customer service at this place. Myself and co workers called in a decent size lunch order. Being... 25 min away, one of the ladies went to go pick it up. After getting back to our office and opening our meals every salad wasmissing dressing! I gave the store a call and asked to speak with a manager, when the rude young lady put me on hold and getsback on the phone, NOT THE MANAGER, and states we can offer you a credit of .50 cents towards each salad for the missingdressing. I truly laughed and said I would like to speak with the manager. Another woman now gets on the phone and says "i'mnot quite sure what else you would be looking for." You received the salads and the rest of the ingredients in each salad. Myresponse was, "it's quite inconvenient to receive a dry salad while on a lunch break and now unable to eat it. Would you eat drylettuce? The manager responded she can provide me with an extra $2 credit, totaling $3.5. It's not about the money its the lackof respect and customer service at this place that has now driven me away and I would never recommend them. Read more

I really don?t like it when you tip first before you could get a service. Who?s brilliant idea was that? So food came after... 45min and it?s just basic food like toasted avocado and omelette. It?s not even that busy at all! I think if they don?t see yougive a tip after paying at the counter they will let you suffer from hunger and wait a long time to serve your food. Coz the 5people behind us got their food before us. I?m also annoyed that they put too much butter in my croissant. I just wanted a plainone, why would you decide to put a butter on it? Just give a butter on the side. Home fried wasn?t good it?s not appealing atall. Won?t come back. Read more

Spice Catering is a wedding dream come true. Billy, Brandon and the entire Spice Catering team are diligent, detail oriented,... and we?re truly invested in making sure our day went perfectly - and it did! From Day 1 Billy treated us like family. I calledhim all the way back in September 2020, almost a full 2 years (COVID engagement) before our actual wedding day. The moment wetalked through my vision I knew I was working with an expert in the craft, and the kindest human being. These two things keptthings moving and warmed our hearts through what can be a stressful process again and again. In the weeks leading up to thewedding we worked more and more with Brandon who is an absolutely super hero of a human. Brandon is organized, has fantasticcommunication skills, and works to get every last detail from the timing to the decorations to the people movement absolutelyperfect. People kept telling me ?be prepared for things to go wrong? but you know what, they DIDN?T. The Spice team workstirelessly to keep people?s glasses full, their appetizers bottomless, and the timeline flawless. If you?re on the fence, doyourself the favor to just sign with Spice. A direct quote from one of our guests was ?there are good weddings, and there areexcellent weddings, but this wedding might be one of the best ones I?ve been to.? Read more

Billy, thecatering director, worked with me throughout the entire process with amazing detail and patience. I could not be happier andcannot recommend them enough. Thank you guys for the best day ever!! Read more

I came here on Friday night, and it wasn't too busy. I order a tuna melt(highly recommend) and a sugar cookie. The tuna melt... was very good, and the fries were extraordinary! The sugar cookie was soft and sweet. The ambiance is very welcoming, a greatspot to have a lunch date. Teagan was very polite and attentive to taking my order. Overall I had a pleasant time, and plan oncoming again. Read more

Always love it here. Friendly staff, great food and the atmosphere is awesome. I had the special wrap and it was AH-Mazing. So... good I got my husband one to bring home. I love the fried here a little too much lol. If you see any of their rice crispyconcoctions with cereals etc don't think about it. Just get it. Owners are awesome and staff is too. 2 private unisex bathroomsthat are spacious and nicely appointed. Even had a full length mirror so I could check myself head to toe. Have peed here manytimes. Will most definitely be peeing here again. Follow me for more reviews of where I have been and where I have gone. ???? Read more
