50 Best Coffee Shops near River Vale

“Vale Coffee Shoppe makes the best tasting almond milk lattes & flat whites ! I rarely miss a day at this spot. Tasty treats as well. Great service and there is often a special event like crafts & music. Forget Starbucks or Dunkin' - support an awesome local business !“

“Amazing experience at this Dunkin! The service was incredibly fast, and the staff was attentive and on point. Orders were taken quickly, made correctly, and handed off without any delay. You can really tell the team works efficiently while still paying attention to customers. Perfect stop when you’re in a rush—this location definitely gets it right!“

“Kenny’s Cafe and Grill has delicious and variety of burgers. They sell sandwiches and hot breakfast items also. Customer friendly and in-door setting. I recommend to try their burgers and sandwiches. You will LOVE it!!👍🏻“

“I bought three prepared bagels and coffee this morning. Adam’s bagels are the freshest and biggest bagels I’ve eaten. This is not my first time there. I’m never disappointed with Adam’s. See for yourself when you visit his Bagel Cafe’ in Rivervale NJ.“

“Great coffee, great pastries, great man. Sam is the nicest man there is. He invited me to come eat in his own home. His wife's homemade pastries are the best!“

“10/10 love this place … coffee is great, beer is great, the atmosphere at all hours of the day is always on point and the support for the local community just seals the deal.“

“The coffee is perfect and because they roast themselves it is better for you and it doesn’t bother my stomach. The blueberry muffins and chocolate chip cookie are the best I’ve ever had! Love this place.“

“Cappuccino & service is amazing.“

“Came here to get some work done and wasn’t disappointed. The service is really nice and accommodating. There’s limited seating but there was room on a late Friday morning and the seating was comfortable to sit for a few hours. I got the biscoff latte with oat milk since it was so recommended and it was pretty good. The espresso was good. The atmosphere was really cute and decorated in a comfy way (even the bathroom). It was pretty warm but they turned on the AC once they noticed.“

“Great brunch place with kids. Great service.“

“The best coffee ever and the desserts 5 stars“

“We pulled off the highway for a coffee and stumbled upon this gem. The pastry menu is filled with unique items and great flavor combinations. I had the ube pan de sal and the Kashmir cardamom latte with oat milk. I absolutely love both! The location seemed surprising at first, it’s located in a larger office complex, but inside it feels comfortable with warm lighting and plenty of seating. They also sell records and prepared wraps and desserts. Check it out if you’re in the area! I will be sure to stop by next time I’m passing through.“

“My new favorite coffee shop! Excellent service and product! Highly recommend to all coffee lovers.“

“Just Perfect“

“So if you’re looking for not just great coffee, but over the top helpful and knowledgeable staff. Then you’ve found the right place! The Barista’s Touch is a fantastic choice with fresh ideas and incredible tasting coffee beverages. The prices are competitive with other independent coffee shops in the area, but these guys are consistent in quality and ingenuity. They make some wild creations with and without coffee. They carry some fantastic local bakery specialties that Don just look delicious, but absolutely melt in your mouth. These folks are legit and I highly not just recommend but encourage you to stop by and pick up a cup of Java either hot or cold. I promise you won’t be disappointed and you’ll come back.“

“Great food options, I love to customize bowls from Yasas, Limesalt, or Royal Greens. Plenty of vegetarian options as well.
Tried the Indian place today, the veggie korma was pretty good.
Everything is fresh and good quality. Some dishes aren’t for me flavor-wise, but I have found my favorites that haven’t disappointed me yet.“

“I have not tired this coffee yet. But i roast my own and i know this coffee will be great. can't wait to try this coffee!“

“Stopped by Blue Ridge Cafe and was pleasantly surprised! I didn’t realize it was a Greek cafe OR that they served Greek treats and everything we tried was delicious. The spinach pie is absolutely to die for—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. The food, atmosphere, and service were all wonderful. Definitely looking forward to coming back and trying more from the menu!“

“Amazing chicken, pastas, wraps, deserts. Bingsoo with mango is fantastic, something you must have!!!“

“Such amazing coffee and the food looked really good. Will def return“

“Great cappuccino and cheesecake. Off the beaten path.“

“I've been coming here for about 5 years now. It's in my top 5 favorite places in the world. Great for business meetings, snacks, spot to work, best coffee around, best pastries around, beautiful/relaxing atmosphere, excellent service, and I could go on and on. Just being inside settles me and reduces my stress level. Anyone I bring states that it's one of their new favorite places. Try the spinach/cheese croissant, but leave one for me. :) 😀...Oh, and for my vegan and gluten free friends, there are loads of options for you here.“

“Amazing coffee and friendly, attentive staff!“

“Great food and exceptional customer service! I had an issue with my order, and I was genuinely impressed by how the manager handled it. They went out of their way to make things right and made sure I left satisfied. It’s rare to find a business that stands behind its customers the way they do.“

“I've been a regular here for a while! They have really great sushi, and it's also very affordable. The service is wonderful, and you can tell they really care about their customers. I'm always looking forward to my next visit.“

“A very pretty French place like being transported to a countryside in France. Moderate portion of food and very beautiful tasty drinks. Owner very detailed in decorating the place. Food not heavily seasoned but brought out the taste of ingredients as much as possible. Supposedly in-house baked croissants were good and went along with the brunch menu well. Mild, friendly, and lovely ladies working there. I appreciate the waitress giving us space and time but what I wish she checked up on us occasionally. Very responsive when asked for things though. I’d definitely go back.“

“Love their coffee and the small time vibe where it is located. Great service and people that work there!“

“Excellent ambiance, amazing drinks, and the best customer service !“

“Tried this place for the first time the other day and the coffee was smooth delicious. Juan, the barista was super friendly and knowledgeable. The two disappointing parts were no sugar free flavoring and the ham and cheese croissant. As someone with Type 1 Diabetes sugar free flavoring options are my only option so it’s saddening when there aren’t any. The croissant was tasteless and the ham wasn’t a normal color. As a whole, it was a positive experience and I will return for the coffee just not a pastry.“

“One of the best einspanners in Bergen County! Theres always a few people doing work or having conversations. The staff is friendly. If you’re looking for minimalistic and aesthetic vibe this is the place.

For someone with a sweet tooth, I enjoy the Lotus Biscoff Latte and Matcha einspanner ☺“

“My first time trying them was amazing, my aunt, cousins along with myself did a coffee tasting there and everything was great!! I had the FFF (Triple F) with a HEC on brioche 🔥! Service was exceptional as well, definitely a comeback whenever I’m in NJ again“

“Delectable baked goods!! Inviting atmosphere and the best of service. Paying $15.44 a cheese and spinach pastry and a medium coffee was a surprise.“

“I read their amazing reviews, I had to add me 2 cents. Definitely try their French toast. Brings back my memories of being a kid, and filling as f...... Great for breakfast, lunch or dinner!!!“

“Big fans of the coffee drinks both cold and hot and the muffins, croissants, cookies and other baked goods are delicious and fresh baked on the premises!“

“Today I walked in by curiosity and it was the best decision yet.. I ordered the most delicious bagel with Swiss cheese, turkey , tomato and an iced matcha latte that was made freshly in front of me with a coffee with regular milk .. best breakfast by far ! Will be a regular her for sure!“

“Great menu and quality food“

“awesome food friendly owner“

“I have to give a big shout out to this cafe! It has a very homey feel and every time I am in there I'm always greeted by the baristas and they make me feel so happy to be just grabbing a cup of coffee. My go-to is my iced matcha with oat milk and I know it's going to be on point when the barista with the awesome arm tattoos makes my drink! She never misses! I HIGHLY recommend this cafe!!“

“EXCELLENT SANDWICHES, GOOD COFFEE“

“Very good bakery. Nice ambience.“

“My only complaint is that the lone worker today, when I was paying with a credit card (without tap) took my card and tried to use tap. Before she took my card I was going to put it into the card processor. When I pointed out that it doesn’t have tap, she (2x’s) typed my card information into the register screen and it was declined (plenty of credit was available because I got gas with it shortly after). I then used my debit card which she just took from me and again tried to use tap (again not a feature on that card either). She was finally able to put my card information for the debit card and it went through. If she had let me put my card in in the first place there would have been no problem with the original transaction attempt. I feel some of the staff might need better/more training on using the register.“

“This is a great coffee shop. They make the best cappuccino in town and the service is always excellent, you can tell they care about making sure you enjoy your visit. All the coffee items are delicious and there are plenty of pastries, but the key to your visit here is to make sure you try whatever homemade items are available, they’re simply delicious, all of them.“

“Love this little gem . Delicious food and coffee💕🎺❤️and great service 🙏🏻⚔️🎺“

“Wow! Heard great things about Double Bubble and finally was able to make it there today! The window and the fun floaties outside got all four of our kids so excited! The interior was so fun! Little and big rubber ducks everywhere, fun seats that looked like desserts for kids to sit on, some table top games...and of course we were greeted by the owner himself, Tony! We ordered the bubble waffles with ice cream and toppings, brownies and adults had lattes and probably the best espresso I ever had....BROWN SUGAR SHAKEN ESPRESSO (I asked for almond milk). I don't normally like sugar in my coffee, but this was absolutely the best espresso I honestly ever had. It was such a kid and family friendly spot and the perfect ending to our lunch!

I can safely say, we are absolutely going back and bringing more friends. Highly recommend!“

“one of the best coffee I had.. if I have to compare it's better than dunkin donut“

“A huge variety coffee,and tea Awsome! its exactly what we needed in the area.“

“Boxer Donut is a charming, small coffee shop located just off Main Street that packs a big punch in quality and flavor. Despite its modest size, this spot stands out for its excellent lattes and freshly made donuts. The coffee is rich and carefully crafted, with a smooth texture that makes each latte a delight—perfect for anyone who appreciates a well-made cup of coffee. Equally, the donuts crafted on-site offer a unique twist, reflecting the care and creativity behind every treat.

The ambiance inside Boxer Donut is relaxed and inviting, making it an ideal destination whether you’re looking for a quiet moment to enjoy your coffee or a friendly meeting spot. With its convenient location near Main Street, the coffee shop is an accessible gem for local residents and visitors alike. The efficient service further enhances the overall experience.“

“Beautiful people like Jessika brightens your day with a wonderful welcome. My coffee is very important in the morning, that is why I come to a wonderful place like Dunkin’. However beautiful people like Jessika make the difference in your day. SHE IS THE BEST!!!!“

“Simply Beautiful!❤️ Great atmosphere, WiFi, Peaceful, Spacious, Airy in Summer, Superb location by the Hudson, Convenient travel stop for a bite, The most wonderful selection of freshly baked goods daily + healthy snacks, Expert baristas, Friendly kind & efficient serving amazingly good coffees teas and a wide choice of beverages. Supporting local small business, what could be better?!“

“Friendly staff, great music, delicious coffee. They’re happy to fill your reusable mug as well, which is always a plus. Coffee is great, but I wouldn’t recommend the matcha, it was overly sweet and not very strong. Nice ambiance especially when the fireplace is going. Good space to work or hang out with friends, but be aware that on the weekends it can get pretty packed with the cyclist crowd - though they’re very friendly, they take up a lot of seating!“
