    My wife and I were very excited to try out this new cafe in town and we're not disappointed! The quaint cafe is filled with loads of natural light that make the freshly baked goods look even better! We both got a great cappuccino and a small breakfast, which hit the spot. The food was very fresh and reasonably priced. We can't wait to go back and try their homemade soup! Definitely give this place a try if you are in the area

    So yummy!! I’m not often in the area but my work brought me here for a bit and I’m so glad. I got the lavender hive iced coffee and a matcha muffin. My coffee was so good and at this point it was honestly one of the best I’ve ever had!! The cafe itself and the interior design itself was an experience, very delightful and beautiful. This place was just as a coffee shop should be. 5 stars!!!

    Went to Connecticut for a girls weekend and decided to try this cafe - we loved it so much we started every morning here! Highly recommend the Caramel Apple Butter latte and the cheddar and chive scone! The people were super friendly and they also sell cute tshirts and pins.

    I took a friend there today for lunch to celebrate her birthday. She's a real foodie and enjoys cooking and reading cookbooks, so I knew the bar was high. But we loved our meals! They were delicious, the staff was friendly and accommodating, and the desserts were wonderful. My favorite part though was the pineapple-watermelon lemonade that I had. It was out of this world!

    River & Rail is my go-to coffee and lunch stop in downtown New Milford. Their superior quality food and beverage offerings, welcoming atmosphere, and courteous staff made this space a quick and frequent favorite of mine. The vegetarian and vegan offerings are a welcome sight on their menu and give me several options to enjoy in one location. Make sure to check them out! Photos both pre and post-pandemic. I've been eating at R&R since they opened and can't believe it's taken me this long to leave them a review.

    Quality coffee, friendly staff, and y’all, they make their own syrup for chai lattes! Not only is River and Rail a great place to stop into, they’re also a great catering option. On the morning of my wedding, the staff set up coffee and bagels for me and my bridesmaids who were getting ready at a salon down the street. Then they brought sandwiches over to the venue for lunch. Ethan, the manager, helped us craft the menu for the day. We had a few allergies among the bridal party, and we wanted to avoid anything that could possibly smudge or smear on our outfits. Ethan came up with great options that everyone enjoyed. Several groomsmen went back for seconds—or thirds! You just can’t go wrong with River and Rail.

    The atmosphere is very small but very quaint. Menu is also small, but the food was pretty good! Nothing blew us away by any means (besides the home fries!) but it was decent and it was fuel for the day! Before going , I was reading reviews and wasn’t able to find a coffee menu anywhere. So for those wondering, they do classic espresso bar drinks (drip coffee, lattes, americanos, cappuccinos, mochas , etc.. hot or iced, and they do offer flavorings as well). Had an iced vanilla latte and it wasn’t bad ! Friendly staff and centrally located in a busy little area of town!

    Saw a lot of great reviews on their breakfast. We ordered pancakes, the farmers breakfast, the Vermonter sandwich & a Mexican hot chocolate . Our total was $65 I personally do not feel that it was worth the $$. The pancakes had way too much vanilla bean extract in it giving them a terribly bitter after taste. Along with the texture I was not pleased with. The way the fries were prepared with the Vermonter they used way too much dried rosemary which gave a very over powering taste. I love the concept it’s a very “homey” vibe here. I’m sure they have other great things on the menu it was very busy inside so the food could have been rushed however I would not return.
