History
Established in 2007.
It is the answer to — What am I going to do when I retire?
I decided to open the Crafted Kup and work for myself rather than get a job. The idea was to create a friendly comfortable place where people could meet that serves great coffee, tea, espresso drinks, pastries and bagels. To give people an alternative to the super chain coffee machines.
We offer locally produced tea from Harney & Sons, locally roasted coffee from J.B. Peel Inc. Our pastries, delivered fresh daily come from Bread Alone and bagels from Formisano Bakery. We offer Wild Hive Farm Bakery products, Moxie cupcakes and Gluten free pastries from Soul Dog.
Our trained baristas make each drink from scratch by hand. No fully automated espresso machine here. We can make just about any drink you want. You design it we’ll build it
The next time you are in the Arlington Town Center area of Poughkeepsie stop by and try the best coffee in Poughkeepsie.
You’ve tried the rest now try the BEST!

Business Owner
This is my second career after spending the past 36+ years working in Public Service. I retired from the position of Public Works Superintendent of the Village of Croton on Hudson in 2007 and started the Crafted Kup shortly thereafter. I retired from a stressful 40 hours a week job to a no stress 80 hours per week job & I love it.
