“Looooved the atmosphere at this cute Puerto Rican owned cafe. The coquito latte?! AMAZING. My friend got the avocado toast and I got the breakfast sandwich on Mexican bread. 9/10! The only downfall was that people were comfortably seated and no one was really policing the tables, but my friend and I finally got a seat and were able to enjoy the experience a little better.“

“They have a variety of different foods to select from. The food was good put I was expecting it to be a little better quality and have more flavor, especially their Penne alla vodka. The salads were good and seemed fresh. This place is like a buffet with many options so do not get overwhelmed! I walked around and viewed all the options before I started creating my plate. I went during lunch time on a Thursday and it was busy. My photos are attached that show my experience and what I ordered. Thank you for your service!“

“Lifelong Palisades resident, and have loved the 9W Market/The Filling Station since it opened back in 2011! A HUGE improvement over the previous ownership when it was called the Palisades Market which opened in the spring of 2010 and was only open for a few months and then closed. I was so disappointed with the Palisades Market because it lacked a decent food selection and this community needed something so much more. Luckily, the owners of the 9W Market have done such an amazing job! I’ve never had a bad meal here! The ingredients are high quality and super fresh! The atmosphere and ambiance is very relaxing and tranquil! Love the bistro theme on the indoor side and picnic theme by the filling station burger stand. Not to mention, the burgers are the best I’ve ever had! Made with high quality grass fed beef! This is gourmet nyc restaurant style food right in our local neighborhood! Keep up the great work!“

“Fantastic! Met the owner. Very cool. They are expanding and offering full breakfast lunch. Check it out.“

“Great food my kids love going there. It’s really awesome and I support our local community too. Eat local, especially here.“

“I love everything about this place! The food is outstanding and the staff are amazing! Shout out to Christa, who is the soul of the place, and Cory, who goes above and beyond (crayons & paper for my little one). The cafe is a second home to me :-)“

“A cozy cafe, with stool chairs by the window, and an outside seating area is available. Menu selections pastries, wraps, salads and of course coffee, plus much more. Friendly and quick service. The entrance to the cafe has a small ramp to enter, making it accessible for the handicap. Roomy enough to pull up to the table, with a wheelchair.“

“the bread soup and pastries are excellent also the crumb cake none better“

“Nice little Cafe for breakfast or lunch. Self service counter with limited seating. Coffee is fantastic and they do have gluten free bread for toast to go with omelets or to make sandwiches. I would be careful if you're very sensitive as I'm not sure about cross contamination.“

“Great food and servers! definitely going back. Fresh squeezed OJ!“

“We just moved to the neighborhood and decided to try a new spot. We were not disappointed. Not only were they the nicest people when my husband went to pick up the food but the food was super delicious. Completely homemade and tasty and warm. When I don’t feel like cooking I know where we are going. Thank you Congers Diner!“

“I’m glad my daughter found this place, now I’m addicted to bubble drinks!! And the bubble waffle is awesome!!!!“

“Built in 1937 and originally known as “Lookout Inn, my partner and I decided to stop at the State Line Lookout Cafe after a nice hike for a bite. This casual establishment is a throwback to yesteryear inside a nice stone cabin with fireplaces to warm up during cold weather and the only restaurant/cafe around in the nearby area.

I was greeted by the young staff. Their simple menu is a little diverse, from breakfast sandwiches, various burgers, and hot dogs to fries, but nothing too fancy.

We decided on a cheeseburger, a tuna fish salad sandwich, large fries to share, and drinks for takeout.

Service was friendly and quick. Prices are quite reasonable, and the food was hot, freshly prepared, and tasty.

We can recommend it.“

“great place to have a breakfast and dinner“

“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.“

“Love this coffee shop/bakery in this converted old train ticket /waiting station. Their are still some announcements as trains pull in. Noticed some people working on their laptops. saw some families. Parking is a little tough and you have to pay metered parking via an app or coins. Once inside it is totally worth it. I highly recommend this place.“

“"Bites Cafe is a culinary gem that deserves every bit of praise! From the moment you step inside, you're enveloped in a cozy ambiance and greeted by friendly staff. The menu is a delightful fusion of flavors, offering a diverse array of options to satisfy any craving. Whether you're in the mood for a hearty breakfast, a satisfying lunch, or a delectable dessert, Bites Cafe has you covered. The quality of the ingredients is evident in every bite, and the presentation is nothing short of artful. Not to mention, their coffee and specialty drinks are absolute perfection!

“The name doesn’t tell you the reality of this place! The staff is lovely and they serve breakfast lunch and dinner in addition to being an ice cream shop. A wonderful place for a quick meal in the cutest little shop. It’s adorable. A true mom & pop hidden gem on Main Street. I love having breakfast & a coffee here.“

“We had a family dinner at Rockin Roots as the kick off to an event filled weekend. We wanted something more casual and fun with an elevated twist. We worked with Mike and he came up with a perfect menu to make our picky kids and adult foodies happy. When we arrived the table was set and delicious appetizers were ready to go!! They were followed by a delicious meal of chicken, salmon and awesome sides. Everyone had a great time and raved about the food.“

“The Best Culinary Thing to Happen to Pelham—Ever.
I am not exaggerating when I say The Pelican Room is the most exciting culinary addition Pelham has ever seen. Full stop.

My family moved to Pelham from Williamsburg, Brooklyn fifteen years ago—back when every corner had a hidden gem, every block had a vibe, and great food was just expected. We’ve always loved Pelham, but we definitely missed that city energy, that edge, that level of craft. For years, Bistro Rollin filled that void with its warm bistro soul—a place that actually reminded us of Pastis and Balthazar.

But The Pelican Room?
It’s on a whole other level.

From the moment you walk in, the décor is absolutely stunning—resplendent, intentional, elegant without being stuffy, and effortlessly cool. You instantly feel transported. It’s the first place in Pelham that genuinely gives off that “you are somewhere special” vibe.

And the food… my God. Every plate is perfection. Not just good—top-notch, dialed-in, chef-driven, thoughtful in every detail. The flavors have depth. The presentations are gorgeous. You can taste the confidence and creativity in every bite.

This is the first time in 15 years that I’ve said, with total sincerity:
We finally have a restaurant that rivals (and in many ways surpasses) the best of NYC.

Pelham needed this.
Pelham deserves this.
And The Pelican Room delivers beyond all expectations.

If you haven’t been yet, go—immediately.
If you have, you already know: this is not just a restaurant.
It is a gift to our town.

Welcome to Pelham, Pelican Room. We’re obsessed already.“

“THE FOOD IS EXCELLENT!!“

“Always one of places to hit when I am back in North Jersey“

“We placed an order for delivery through GrubHub for a corporate lunch for 8 people. Sam was great in helping us plan ahead, accommodate dietary restrictions, and ensure everything went smoothly. Everyone was really impressed with the healthy, delicious food!“

“Mon Amour in the mornings feel like best way to start the day. Calm music, friendly staff, good coffee with like minded people looking for a peaceful environment. Got to try their cappuccinos. I’m a frequent go-er. Best coffee shop in 238th.“

“I unfortunately had an episode where I passed out while waiting for a table. Not only was every single person who worked in the restaurant so caring and helpful but they also comped my meal for having had a scary experience. It was scary but the kind folks at the ParkwayCafe made it less so. Thank you!!! I highly recommend their amazing and delicious pancakes too which I ended up ordering after my ordeal. Love this place and will always come back.“

“Delicious Caesar salad, chicken pot pie (and chocolate donut). Coffee was really good too.“

“Great customer service. The people who work there are knowledgeable and they have the best stock of bikes around. At 5’1” no one ever has bikes in my size. Not only did Piermont have a bike, they had 4 for me to test. Sunny also told me the size I originally thought I needed was too big and his recommendation for the smaller frame was spot on. I ended up with a 44 cm Cannondale Evo and couldn’t be happier.“

“I loved my experience today. Merry Christmas! The friendly staff to start. I ordered the French Onion Soup which was absolutely delicious. The bread 🥖 was really great too!! ❤️“

“This deli functions and operates beautifully 😍 I love coming in here the employees are great from the deli guys to the counter guys THEY ARE ALL GREAT,NICE SERVICES AND NICE EXPERIENCE...“

“So happy to have Jack’s Cafe back! We went this morning and I had their famous corned beef hash! I can’t tell you how much I missed it! So glad to have you back in the area!“

“Tasty food, great art, wonderful proprietor! 😁“

“What a gem! So happy to of discovered this cafe on our way out of town! Ryan was incredibly helpful and gave us great customer service! Food was amazing and the coffee was great! Will definitely be back the next time we are in town!“

“This is not just a sugar bomb tea cafe. I tried the Thai hot tea no bubble things and it was pleasantly not sweet but tasty. Service is a bit of a wait but it’s pleasant. Children seem to really like the teas here. You should try it. And if you are looking for adult beverages there is a nice wine/liquor store across the street. Parking is nearby and convenient and inexpensive.“

“This place is super duper clean!!!!! They clean the whole place every 50 minutes. Durning playtime you will see staff wiping down toys too. Bathrooms are clean. There are adults bathroom and kids bathroom too. There is a changing room table too to change diapers. There is hand sanitizer stations. Staff is very friendly and they try to get to know the kids. They are always happy and smiling. The eating area is clean. You can order snacks or small hot food to eat. We love the Mickey Mouse waffle on the stick. It’s super cute for the kids to eat. If we lived closer or if my kid doesn’t freak out in a car ride, we would come here everyday to play. It’s an amazing place for the kids to play. We love everything in this place.“

“Just be mindful that the restaurant is located inside the golf academy, once you enter the building the entrance is on your left.Overall had an amazing experience, they will give you an extraordinary service and treat you like a valued customer at all time. All the dishes are delicious, yet low sodium, fresh ingredients. They have a seasonal menu and it's the best to follow what the owner suggest. They usually have very traditional, healthy dishes.“

“ambiance, quality of coffee and sandwiches, friendly barista, good location!“

“They had me at lavender latte. Then add the lovely people who work there, the relaxing ambience, and the delicious goodies. 🥰“

“I just had lunch here. I ordered the cherry mango twist and the mango protein bowl. Both were absolutely amazing! I'm definitely going back there!“
