about

afternoon table is a small-batch food and goods brand made in saratoga springs, ny.

hi, i'm julia. i grew up in the capital region and after almost ten years away, i found myself back home and shortly after had the idea to start afternoon table.

i have always had a passion for food, style, hospitality, and connecting with others. after high school i moved to tampa for college, where i worked in my community and had many different roles in hospitality. i loved connecting with people and sharing my interests. then i moved into freelance brand marketing (which i still do now by day), helping small businesses share their visions.

all of this started with wanting to share the things i love to make. i have always loved to cook, to create things, to work a formula until it's right. and after years of marketing other people's brands, i realized i had everything i needed to build one of my own!

it began with lattes at home, which turned into the idea for latte butter, a spoonful of raw honey and spices you stir into the coffee you already make. then breakfast: overnight oats and chia puddings i was already making every week, with organic, real ingredients. then other refined sugar free creative sweet treats. i had been posting on social media for years and always had such good feedback. i wanted to be able to actually share what i was creating with everyone!

everything here starts the same way. i make it at home until i'm sure i'd want it again, then it goes to the cafe to see if you do. when i had the idea to launch afternoon table, nicholas byrne, owner of osteria danny, saw my vision right away and we ran with it. now here we are hosting a cafe, and i get the honor of creating some small-batch menu items that are served in the restaurant.

most weekend mornings you'll find me at the cafe, making coffee and other elixirs, setting out whatever i jarred that week. alongside the food sits other random curated objects for the kitchen, the table, and the closet, gathered slowly and offered as found. vintage collection coming soon.

afternoon table is the part of my life people kept asking about, made into something you can bring home.

xx Julia

how it works

everything is made fresh each week. order by thursday at 6pm and pick up at the cafe inside osteria danny, 26 henry street, saturday or sunday, 9am to 1pm. jars keep 4 to 6 days refrigerated. bring back your empty jars and i will give you $1 off your next jar. there's always select inventory on the counter for grab and go, but ordering ahead is the only way to be sure of a flavor. the full rhythm lives on the how it works page.
