One place that has kind of this atmosphere in Tivoli is Murray's, but the reviews state up front that it's loud, so that eliminates it. There's also a place nearby in Red Hook called Taste Budds which advertises "alternative foods, coffee, and confections" while calling itself a "Chocolate and Coffee Cafe."
Given what I know of Tivoli, I'm actually surprised there aren't more places like this around. It's a younger, more artistic community, so I'd think there were more trendy little coffee shops around, but either I'm missing them or they don't exist.
