I’m new to New Rochelle and stumbled upon this gem of a shop a couple months ago, and I can’t stop telling my friends about it since. I don’t write many reviews but just had to for this beautiful coffee shop. Love stopping by here on my way to work as it’s only a few minutes from the station. Absolutely adore this cafe. Their coffee and pastries are OUTSTANDING. 🤤🤤🤤 The matcha latte, cinnamon cappuccino, and iced chai latte are some of my favs and are made perfectly every time. The pastries are to die for too, so fresh and scrumptious. Try the chocolate almond croissant and homemade banana bread and you’ll see what I mean. They also have a great selection of teas. Amazing flavors. The apricot black tea is a must-try! Besides the drinks and food, I love this place for its warm, cozy vibes. Makes me feel right at home. It also has beautiful artwork on the walls, which they change every so often and sometimes they showcase the work of local artists. Every time I stop by, I’m always greeted by the friendliest staff and owner. Hey Andrea and Paulo👋 All in all, I’m very happy to have found this little gem after moving here. Hands down my fave cafe!!

I had the cappuccino and the bacon and egg brunch. The food was amazing. The bread was fresh. The staff were exceptionally nice and the food came very quickly for something made fresh. The atmosphere was also fantastic. It made you feel like you were on vacation at some European cafe.

A hidden gem in downtown New Rochelle! Curated selection of coffees, teas, bakery items (cookies, croissants, danishes) and a few food options. The quiches are delish! The 2-seater table in the front window is the prized spot (people stay at that table for hours). A couple of sofas either side of a coffee table, a communal table and a few 2-seater tables round out the seating. Parking is mainly metered, either on the the street or in public lots.

A relaxing cafe where you can enjoy a laid back atmosphere, delicious quiches, and great amercianos/chai lattes. We loved it there so much we became regulars. The local art for sale on the walls which changed reguarly added to the space. People there were courteous and friendly. We will miss this place.

Quiet tea and coffee shop. It has a lot of decorative art. The service is great and they offer a variety of pastries: chocolate, almond, and plain croissants, chocolate chip cookies, scones. They offer a variety of different milk, with oat milk as an option. Oat milk latte was good. The space offers a calm feeling and provides a cozy environment to do school work or just simply catch up with your friend over coffee. They also serve sandwiches if you’re looking for something other than coffee: grill cheese sandwich, Turkey sandwich, quiches. They also have soup! I really like this place!

The cutest French inspired cafe. The chocolate chip banana bread was absolutely delicious as were the coffees we tried (iced caramel latte, french vanilla cappuccino, french vanilla latte). Such a cozy place to have breakfast and relax.

Lovely little cafe. Great service and the goat cheese and herb quiche I had was delicious, especially enjoyed the buttery crust and that the herb wasn’t overpowering the goat cheese. Also had a scone which was good but tiny. Reasonably priced, had a delicious breakfast and a baked treat and an espresso beverage all for $16. The parking situation is less than ideal, it’s in a busy part of New Rochelle but found parking a block away in a public lot. Would definitely visit again and recommend this place!

Highly recommend, an adorable coffee shop with comfy seating and ambiance. Perfect for a catch up with the tables for 2 along the wall, or reading and enjoying a cup of coffee on the couch or the other tables. Service is kind, and my coffee (decaf americano) was very good and they have a nice broad menu of drinks. I didn't have the pastries, but they offered a variety of delicious looking ones. Enjoy this place, it is an absolute gem in town!

I usually go to R Café for its cozy French vibes- shelves of books, warm light, and that perfect slow-day charm. My regular is the Turkey Sandwich with apricot on the side, the crunch as you bite into the sandwich paired with warm soup and tea combined with sweet tart from the bites of the apricot. Magical!!. Their tea collection is absolutely lovely; I’m obsessed with the Apricot Noir and Blueberry Jasmine. It’s the kind of place you just want to sit, read, and unwind.
