"My wife and I stopped in at this cool little restaurant in Rockaway this morning. The setting of this place is perfect....train tracks on one side and a river on the other. The woman serving us was very friendly and gave us details on a movie which had been filmed there. I ordered stuffed French toast and my wife had a build your own omelette. The food and coffee was very good. If you're in Rockaway, give this place a try!"
I was in the area around lunch time and checked my options on social media. Some of the reviews suggested that a take-out might be a better option then a sit-in. Too many people complained about a 30 min to an hour wait. Today could not be a 3 Martini two hour lunch so I opted for the take-out. The plus side was that the wait time was a short 10 minutes. The ingredients: ham, salami, lettuce, tomato, onion, oil and vinegar and bun were fresh on my Classic Italian Sub. They have a lot of sandwiches to choose from. Prices are fair but other restaurants are a bit cheaper in the area. The sub was $9 and it was not stuffed. The Rockaway River runes next to the cafe and they have outside seating....
We tried this place after not returning for two years due to poor service. We decided to try again to see if something has improved, nope! We waited 45 minutes for eggs and the girl forgot my toast. I had to ask her twice. A nearby customer saw my frustration and told the waitress to not forget my toast after receiving her coffee. The same nearby customer said, We know the service is terrible, but we like the food. However, we always leave super frustrated! When I did receive my toast, 15 minutes later, it was not even toasted. The waitress also responded with yeah to customer requests, was sloppy, and disorganized. The cooks in the kitchen are slow as molasses and are just goofing off and n...
A hole in the wall with very good food. First time here, next to a pretty river but without any views. I had crabcakes benedict which was fabulous! I alwys have my english muffin on the side. Also, the homefries are just cubed potatoes. Nothing to remark about as they were unremarkable. Not a quality muffin at all, but the review is truly about the main ingredients of the meal. Good homemade unsweetened iced tea. The person I was with had some sort of omelet that had sausage in it. He had eaten there many times before and always enjoyed it. I would go back there in a heart beat. Our server was an awesome woman who has been working there forever. Kudos to her :
This is the ideal local spot for a fantastic Sunday breakfast. The staff was incredibly friendly, and our waitress, Jean, was absolutely delightful! Definitely take her recommendations! My partner followed Jean's suggestion and ordered the homemade biscuits and gravy with over-easy eggs and wheat toast. He definitely didn’t regret it—she reminded him twice, saying "told ya!" which made us all laugh, along with other diners. I went for their Taylor ham, egg, and cheese with a side of home fries, and I was very pleased with my choice. The total bill came to around $25. We’ll definitely be returning—I’m ordering the biscuits and gravy next time!

This is the ideal spot to take a group of 10-15 friends for a lovely dinner. There's a cozy private room that has a charming Vermont getaway vibe, perfect for an intimate gathering. The space features vintage furniture, delightful wallpaper, and even a potbelly stove. We visited with three couples and their kids and had a fantastic evening enjoying the delicious food, which included plenty of great seafood options. Some standout dishes were the steamed clams, sugar salmon, and parmesan scallops. The prices were reasonable, especially considering it's BYOB. I would definitely return next time I have a large group to celebrate with!
Waited for my food for 30 minutes for my breakfast order (for 1). Then asked the waitress how much longer will it take. She had no idea. Said there are a couple of tickets before mine. I just left. There were very few people in the cafe and the priority was given to the to-go orders. I worked in several restaurants, priority is always given to the customer in-house. Heard couple of other people complaining in the cafe. It seemed like the staff didn 't care much about their in-house customers.
A 30 minute wait for a breakfast sandwich at 11am on a weekday, with only 2 other people in the shop? Please... This better be the best sandwich I have ever had. If it is, I will change the review. I am still waiting. They could have warned me, and not have me pay up front. This is ridiculous. Okay...got the bacon egg and cheese sandwich. The egg is overcooked, the bacon is undercooked, and the cheese must have been thrown on at the end...not melted at all. The oñe star stands.
Potbelly's Riverside Cafe is a must-visit spot in Rockaway Borough, offering fantastic food for dining in, takeout, or catering. Situated right next to the Rockaway River, this restaurant boasts exceptional outdoor seating. I’ve savored their burgers, Cuban sandwiches, sausage and peppers, and so much more. The menu includes kid-friendly options and features wonderful lunch and dinner specials. If you're in the area, I highly recommend trying Potbelly's Riverside Cafe.

The food was decent and reasonably priced but the service has a lot to be desired. We waited over an hour for our breakfast order and one order was completely missed making the wait even longer. Our server was in training but doing her best. No one checked in to see if we needed more coffee or beverages during our wait. I'm not sure if this simple establishment is worth second try, nothing to write home about. Disappointed :
