If you choose to pay by credit card, debit card, or over the phone, Cafe Riviera will add a 4% surcharge to your billâwithout informing you in advance. This is not only poor customer service but also a violation of New York law, which requires businesses to clearly and conspicuously display the total price, including any credit card surcharge, before the customer completes the transaction. Additionally , it is not legal in New York to charge a fee for debit card payments, surcharging debit cards is prohibited. I used debit card to pay for the product.
It takes years of hard work to earn loyal customers, but it only takes one careless moment to lose them. This isnât about the $1âitâs about how you treat customers . Your customers are the reason your business exists and thrives. Respect them.
By the way... Since you say it's only one dollar (that's not that much) why don't you cover the transaction costs?)

The bakery has tasty treats for a good price and plenty of seating. The hours are also ideal if you want to meet up with someone after work.

Now these are seriously good pastries! Fresh and not overly sweet. If you, like me, arenât really into the super sugary American desserts (sorry key lime pie, apologies donuts) - look no farther! Iâve had poppy seed roll, strawberry danish and peach danish (my favorite). Everything was perfect. Honestly, just the best. They have a great selection of teas too. The prices are very reasonable and the place is very popular with locals.
Some good some not,a lot of people hanging hours with one coffee and making gossips when I came with dogs ( I was long time costumer) boss w freaking out because of dogs, but all kinds of disgusting people sitting there and is ok!!!,also they are very disrespectful they can skip you to serve person behind you just to show their power, very inappropriate behavior done by owners!! Apple they use from can, cheese cake is hard and not tasty. I am feeling not welcome not being treated fairly and nicely.

Small cozy place with delicious fresh bakery. Always fresh, you won't be disappointed
Best tiramisu and macaroons in Brooklyn. The apple pie is typical Polish style and out of this world. Try cappuccino and caramel macaroons and vanilla & strawberry!

Have been coming here for years and never disappoints. The cakes and cookies are always very tasty and fresh. I recommend the apple cake, walnut cookies, and cheese and blueberry danishes, and macaroons, but everything is fantastic!

Be careful what youâre paying for.
If you choose to pay by credit card, debit card, or over the phone, Cafe Riviera will add a 4% surcharge to your billâwithout informing you in advance. This is not only poor customer service but also a violation of New York law, which requires businesses to clearly and conspicuously display the total price, including any credit card surcharge, before the customer completes the transaction.

When I brought this up to the owner, she responded sarcastically, saying, âHow much extra did you have to pay? One dollar?â Is only one dollar! She also claimed that they always inform customers about the fee. Thatâs simply not true. Iâve been to this cafĂ© multiple times and have never been informed about this surcharge until I questioned it myself.
To the owner:
