47 Best Cafes near Riverside

“One of our favorite places We always stop in for lunch when we’re in the area. Everything is always very fresh and staff is friendly and professional“

“Hands down the best restaurant in Westchester! This is a run, don’t walk, recommendation. From the moment you enter Cafe Deux, you’re transformed to another era. The owners, Carrie and Charlotte Denoyer, greet each customer with warmth as they accommodate every request—from seating, to craft cocktails, to gf/df/v options. With a chef who clearly “gets it”, each course feels so very special—as if prepared just for you! I’ve been visiting Cafe Deux since they’ve opened so picking my favorite dishes is near impossible, but…Breakfast-crustless farmers market quiche; Lunch- salad tuna nicoise; Dinner—mussels, the Deux wagyu burger, any fish special, and of course the fries, which take 48hrs to prepare). This place is perfection! Harrison sure is lucky to have them!“

“This place is AMAZING! Food is top level French patisserie quality, the atmosphere is fantastic with a pretty garden patio and the staff was super friendly to our family with little kids. This place should be way more popular/have more reviews than it actually does but I’m happy it wasn’t crowded yet when we passed through!“

“We were recommended to Dolce restaurant by a relative who used to live in the area and it did not disappoint. The atmosphere is rustic and classic. From the time we walked in the door, the service was extraordinary. We were seated right away and we received the perfect amount of attention throughout the entire meal. One diner had the tuna tar tar as an appetizer and he said it was the best he's ever had. For dinner we had the chicken Francaise and the Dolce salad. They both had generous portions and were absolutely delicious. The mashed potatoes and spinach sides were just as good as the entree. We would highly recommend this restaurant. Our waitress Jillian was amazing and had a lovely personality. Delicious food, great ambiance all for a fair price.“

“A cute shop with simple sandwiches & various sundries. I got the Grapepoint sandwich & it was great. I also got an iced caramel latte & it was just okay. Wasn’t strong enough but also wasn’t sweet. Would recommend, but maybe they can work a little on the lattes.“

“Tutto molto buono e posto gradevole“

“Their coffee is super awesome! I love it.“

“The roasted coconut vanilla coffee here is amazing! Rich, high-quality coffee flavor with a lovely aroma, and the toasted coconut flakes add such a great crunchy texture. So memorable — highly recommend!

I actually came back the very next day because I was so impressed by yesterday’s coffee! This time, I asked the owner to recommend something similar, and she introduced me to their new Strawberry Shortcake Latte. 🍓☕

It was beautiful, almost like a little piece of art, and absolutely delicious. The sweet strawberry flakes added a lovely fruity flavor without overpowering the coffee itself. You can still really taste and enjoy the coffee, which I loved.

Two visits in two days, and both drinks were fantastic. Definitely becoming one of my favorite coffee spots! ❤“

“Visited Neat, and I have to say the service was excellent, and the coffee was absolutely delicious and incredibly refreshing. We also tried the fluffy bread next door, which was just as enjoyable.

One thing to be aware of is that the ground flooring is very uneven, so it's worth watching your step while walking around the area. Unfortunately, our date was cut short due to an incident in the surrounding area shortly after we grabbed our coffee and food. Even so, the quality of the drinks, food, and friendly service left a positive impression.“

“Went there for the first time today with a friend and had a great time! Good food, great atmosphere and Paola is a sweetheart!! Def going back soon!!“

“A huge thank you to EB222 Cafe & Catering for your kindness today! ❤️🙏🏽
Today was an emotional day as my younger son underwent surgery. While we were at the hospital, someone else dropped my older son off at camp. In the middle of everything, I realized I had forgotten to pack his lunchbox. As a mom, I immediately worried that he wouldn't have anything to eat.
Thankfully, I was able to place a lunch order for him at the very last minute through EB222 Cafe & Catering. Knowing he had a good lunch while I stayed by my younger son's side brought me so much peace during an already stressful day.
Thank you for your kindness and for helping make a difficult day a little easier. Sometimes the smallest acts of care make the biggest difference. We are truly grateful! ❤️🙏🏽“

“Superb in-house roasted coffees, wonderful staff, comfortable setting. ...And the only place to be on C&C Sundays!“

“Super friendly staff, clean shop, and generous with the schmere !! I asked for a nice portion of cream cheese and they did not disappoint :) not sure why people are saying this is expensive? it’s no more than UCBC and all I get is a bad attitude when I go there.. .. I’ve paid more for a cookie … Totally worth it!!!!“

“Had a delightful lunch today at the 41st St location. Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. The dressing on the greens that comes with the sandwiches was to die for! Atmosphere was quaint and inviting. Staff was exceptionally attentive and polite even though it was busy! We can’t wait to go back!“

“Great food great staff I never had a problem with the food or service All the times I went TNT luncheonette this place is awesome!!!!“

“The food and the atmosphere were amazing. The employees were super nice and patient. The only problem is that there is a heavy amount of drain flies at the bar section. I think they need to apply insecticide to all the drains and clean them thoroughly, and not to leave wet towels because that could attract them.“

“Delicious grilled cheese and hot cocoa!!“

“All around just a great place to get food. I’m always looking for a healthy option and green & tonic is exactly that. They have so many delicious options on their menu (fresh and premade) And they also have a lot of options if you have dietary restrictions. Aside from the food always being great, service is very quick with little wait, and the costumer service is amazing. All of the staff are very polite and friendly especially Renne and Olivia.“

“Number one the customer service received is always immaculate! The staff is extremely friendly, welcoming and next the food is amazing! Whatever they put in their simple chicken and potatoes with rice special is to die for! No complaints whatsoever, if you’re in the area don’t hesitate to place an order!“

“I go there to write and meet my friends“

“Had the Pho with chicken. Absolutely delectable. Head chef came out to take our orders and make sure everything was good, even made custom sauces! My one gripe is that you have to buy the board games they have and can’t just use them. They have a VIP only table and a bar, with a few other tables for dining in. The owners were lovely and extremely helpful. Overall would absolutely go again!“

“Cafe Luna has quickly become one of my favorite spots, and it’s all thanks to the outstanding quality of their coffee. Every cup feels like it’s crafted with care—from the rich aroma that fills the air to the perfectly balanced flavors. Whether it’s their smooth espresso or a velvety latte, the coffee here is always on point. You can really taste the freshness of the beans they use. Plus, the cozy, welcoming vibe makes it the perfect place to relax, chat, or even get some work done. If you appreciate great coffee, Cafe Luna won’t disappoint!“

“Delicious coffee , wine and friendly staff“

“always a smile to greet you with your order“

“My favorite everyday coffee is an extra large iced coffee. The owner John knows you by your name and gives exceptional customer service. John also has great taste and knowledge in Music and is always playing interesting music.. I give Sunshine Coffee Roasters a 6 out 5 stars!“

“Todo muy delicioso buen sevicio y super limpio espacio muy acogedor 👍se los recomiendo“

“Good Italian bake goods, gelato, and coffee.“

“Another amazing visit to Green & Tonic! My family and I come in almost every day, and every single staff member is wonderful, but I wanted to give a special shoutout to Morris and Domenica.

Morris is truly one of the kindest and most professional employees I have ever encountered. He is beyond polite, respectful, welcoming, and consistently provides exceptional customer service. Today, he even took the time to update my preferences since I’m such a frequent customer so the team knows exactly how I like my orders. That level of attentiveness made me feel genuinely valued and shows how much he cares about creating a positive customer experience.

What stands out most about Morris is his initiative, attention to detail, reliability, and ability to make every customer feel important. He is an excellent communicator, always maintains a positive attitude, and represents the company incredibly well. Employees like Morris are the reason customers become loyal regulars. He demonstrates the qualities of a true leader and someone any organization would be fortunate to have on their team.

Domenica is equally incredible. She is one of the sweetest, most gracious people I’ve met and is always beyond polite. She consistently brings such positive energy and professionalism, and her work ethic is outstanding. Every interaction with her is pleasant, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about both her customers and her work.

The entire team creates such a welcoming atmosphere, which is one of the many reasons we keep coming back. Green & Tonic is lucky to have employees like Morris and Domenica. Thank you all for making every visit such a great experience!“
