I had such a lovely experience at River at Cafe! I ordered an iced latte with their in-house brown sugar, and it was absolutely delicious—perfectly balanced and just the right amount of sweetness. I also tried their breakfast croissant and s’mores cookie, both of which were fresh and flavorful. The employee who helped me was so sweet and welcoming, which made the visit even better. One of my favorite touches was the small children’s corner—they had books and toys that kept my daughter happily entertained while I enjoyed my coffee. Such a cozy, thoughtful spot—I’ll definitely be coming back!

You feel like you're part of a community. The atmosphere is great. We have games so you could play with your kids and you almost have a hard time leaving and the food is very comforting

Dined on a Friday evening for dinner and it was exceptional! Service was friendly and quick. We ordered a couple of pizzas, a kids cheeseburger meal, poutine, and cookies from the case. Everything was so delicious! The cafe itself is clean, designed well, and spacious. Would come again!

Great food! We especially liked the pineapple Express Pizza. Very clean. Great for eat-in our take-out. We've eaten here a few times now and it's always been a great experience.

I love stopping by River Street Cafe! The vibe is super cozy, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. I grabbed a breakfast sandwich last time, and it was fresh and hit the spot. I’ve also tried their pizza, and it’s seriously good—crispy crust, lots of toppings, and just the right amount of sauce. They’ve got a nice mix of breakfast and lunch options, so it’s a great spot whether you’re in the mood for something quick or want to hang out for a bit. The prices are fair, and the service is always quick. Definitely a go-to place in Haverhill. Can’t wait to try more from the menu!

Staff and owners were very kind and welcoming. The loft seating looked cozy, but I sat downstairs. Got the chicken caesar syrian on their recommendation and it pulled me through the rest of the day. The bread was delicious. They also have amazing cookies. I tried the Take 5 cookie now I’m hooked. Their pizza is good too. Planning to come more often. ***Had to edit. This place may be making some of the best pizza in the area. The crust is crispy and the dough tastes amazing. Had the Margherita and cheese slices and loved it.

Found this gem next to Jaffarian Toyota! Lets start with the place: the place looks amazing I rarely have the “feel like home” feeling at restaurants or pizzerias. The decoration and display are 10/10 the place are kids friendly and kids books are available! The cleanliness: 10/10 rarely see a pizza restaurant with modern design. River Street Cafe locate in a parking lot so you can park to eat or pick up to go 10/10. The wait time for us is 15 minutes 10/10, when I make a pizza at home it took more than 15 minutes just to put it in the oven . The food is 10/10!!! We order half cheese and half meat lover, the taste is amazing. The texture of the crust is between thin crust and normal crust. The price is very reasonable: 9/10. Overall that’s a 9.8/10 place!!! My family and I really enjoy the food and the environment this fantastic place offered!!
