Caffe Riva’s doors are open to all! So whether wanting ‘un espresso’ and a read of the morning paper, a lunchtime ‘panino’, an early evening ‘aperitivo’ and ‘cicchetti’ (Italy’s answer to tapas) or a leisurely evening meal, Caffe Riva is there to serve.

Staff were nice. However we did have to wait a long time for food. Starters were good. Although my main was a bit cold. Pizza were delicious. Environment wise, table were sticky, otherwise clean. Wouldn't mind going again but probably try other places first before returning. Thank you to staff.

This place is a little gem, the food is absolutely outstanding and the prices are reasonable as well with quick service and friendly staff...

Good food with friendly staff, service a little bit slow. Over all a decent experience

First of all, not sure why the wait is 20 mins outside when they clearly have free table to accommodate meal inside, 🤔 seem like just just trying to milking it by making you order drink while you wait.The table was discusting that makes you want to stand up and leave, it was the stickiest table I have ever eaten on. Felt like it hasn't had a good wipe in years or something and we are in the middle of a pandemic...The food was below average and we couldn't even finish our meal... I have added one extra star for the pizza since it was the only thing that was good.

Food was tasty & hot with good service . We didn't have to wait long for a table after walk in no pre booking.

Incredible, authentic Italian meals packed full of flavour. The 4 Formaggi was perfect, the crust was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. And the combination of cheeses made for a flavour packed classic pizza

Well all I can say is well done. The food was amazing and the customer service was fantastic. I will Recommend Caffe Riva to everyone I know and will definitely be back

Overall very nice, we ordered calamari, bruchetta and caprese salad for starters, followed by a couple of pizzas and a risotto. The risotto was overcooked unfortunately and the mocktail we ordered was just okay. Even then I'd give it 4 stars as the food was fresh and service was friendly. Worth the visit if you want something other than fish n chips.

Would've given it a 5 star if the waiting wasn't too long.For starter we had potatoes which was lovely just slightly cold though.For main we had pizza and pasta, pasta was absolutely delicious, it had such great flavours, very yummy.Pizza was also very nice however we've had better pizza but that doesn't mean it wasn't nice, we still enjoyed it all.Hygiene level 10/10. Very clean and everyone serving had masks on.The time we went, it was very busy and you could tell the staff members were very stressed as they were trying to cater for everyone but it did get incredibly slow and we did have to wait a while inorder to get our food and even to pay.Would I come back? Yes, I certainly will because despite the wait, the food was lovely and delicious.

Such a lovely place. Our other reservation cancelled on us and we were left without a place to eat on a very busy night. Stumbled at Cafe Riva, and although it was fully booked, the lovely staff managed to squeeze us in.The service was terrific and we had delicious pizzas - would definitely recommend the Tris and the Quattro Formaggi, plus the Tiramisu.It’s dog friendly too, and we’ll definitely be back as they treated us so well.
