A friend invited us on a Rail Trail walk. My wife and I have walked other parts of the rail trail but this part was new to us. You need to follow your GPS to find this parking lot. This area of the trail is great. We walked north past the Rosendale Trestle about 1.6 miles from the Cafe and then went a little south of the Cafe to round out our walk to 4 miles.
We had lunch at the Cafe. We had four individual pizza pies. Two “Simple” pizzas (tomato, cheese, fresh basil), one Super Green gluten free and one Greek Olive pie. We took home a Brian’s Burrito. Everything was delicious. There is a large wood fired oven which they cooked the pizzas and the Black Beans in.
The staff here were all so friendly. It’s such a cool place. I would love to come back to see a concert and also to take a longer walk.

In the middle of the trail, with live music in the middle of nature. I had a delicious pizza with basil.

The taste was great, the atmosphere was lovely and relaxing. Ordered 2 pies and after 35 minutes of waiting and seeing 3-4 people who ordered after getting their food. We asked if our order was coming only to find that they had made a mix up and not made our order, the comment on this was "you should've come up sooner" as if we had to manage the timing of our food. Nothing to make it right just a simple sorry we'll get working on that and almost 20 minutes later we got out pizzas. Like I said good pizzas but not worth almost an hour wait.

Scariest yet most welcoming place I’ve ever been to. Six hippies kept singing the same phrase over again. I think they wanted me to join their cult. Food was good tho and free water ?

I love the fact that you can get here from the rail trail. Vegan food options were super tasty and a pleasant surprise!

Great place right on the WVRT! In the middle of the woods!
Great stop off place while enjoying the rail trail. The coffee is delicious and fresh. They make wood fire pizzas. Staff were very friendly and inviting. Great location. Stop by on weekends there's music. Fantastic idea. You can access it walking, biking or drive off Spring town or River Rd.
Vegetarian options: Many vegetarian options.
Kid-friendliness: Great nature place for kids. There's camping areas.
Parking: Sufficient amount of spaces for the cafe as most people bike and walk rail trail.

The burrito was very average, "natural" (not so much) soda as well. I can't speak about the pizza and lollipops - those seem to be better, by their look.Music is hit and miss, really depends on what you're into.Staff is very friendly and service is great.

This cafe is a cute pit stop for hikers and bikers. However, the food was not that great, and their kombucha was disgusting. The brand Kevita has way better Kombucha, and you can find it in ShopRite or Amazon.To continue, two elderly women came to perform a song. I must say, the harpist had talent. Half way through the performance, a woman walks right up to my family, and says each of us MUST pay $10, there were 7 of us.We looked at her, put $20 in the basket and ran off. The audacity for her to force us to pay $70 when we already spent so much money on not even great food.I do not see myself coming back anytime soon.
