“ Our absolute favorite local coffee shop! We love the staff at the downtown/on the square location. We will drive in the opposite direction of where we’re going just to go to that one specifically. We go there so much, they know us and are like family now! My daughter stopped there today to get us coffees and the lovely Keirie sent this awesome note home to me! And if you’re ever there when Maggie is working, she’s the sweetest soul! ”
“ Fun local coffeehouse with amazing service and hospitality! We had egg croissants and coffee / tea. Cute outside eating in the front overlooking the quaint Newark square. Highly recommend!!! ”
“ This coffee shop is a fantastic find! While street parking can be tricky, there’s plenty of parking in the back. Inside, the space is roomy and beautifully designed, with an open layout and lots of seating options-perfect for catching up with friends or getting some work done. And of course, the coffee was great! Definitely worth a visit. ”
“ This River Road Coffee location is an amazing community coffee house. Tucked in downtown Newark, it’s a great place for food, latte hot or cold, or to sit down and have a great conversation with new or old friends. They have an amazing seating and quick order time. I am very thankful for the work they have done for helping move this section of town in a more positive direction! ”
“ I can't say enough about River Road Coffeehouses...there are 3 we frequent: on the Square, 21st St, and River Road. They are all delicious, with so many great menu options, including sugar-free, if that's what you like. Various milk options such as soy, coconut, low-fat, etc. And LOTS of flavors! There are nice places to sit and relax, chat with friends, or play/work on your computer with free wi-fi available. We are moving from the area, and will miss our "date night" spot. ”
