This place has amazing ambiance and atmosphere! Great space, with good use of seating, counters, and ordering. Stopped in to grab some coffees to go- an iced coffee, and caramel white chocolate latte, and kind of sad we didnt have too much time to sit and enjoy the space. If were ever back in the area we will need to do just that. The employees were very nice, and the service was really quick. Little to no wait, it seems like that great turnaround time, and they did have outdoor seating. Awesome place!

Got the morning kick and a blueberry scone. The kick was pretty big, had the perfect amount of spicy and tasted amazing! The bread they put it on was just so good. Scone was great also but I will have to finish that later. Fast and friendly service with a cool atmosphere.

Random stop wanted coffee. Was pleasantly surprised to see they roasted on site. Ordered a breakfast sandwich was amazing carrot cake had to try wow delicious order a side biscuit never had such a savory delicious biscuit needless to say by the time I finished sandwich and cake I took the biscuit home. Coffee was fresh and delicious dark roasted. Staff was great, friendly. Atmosphere was funky in a good way,not sure of music but I strangely enjoyed it. Definitely worth the stop. Support this place small business needs it

Loved the vibe of the place. Had good music playing and had great food. I had a spunky monkey drink, which was very good. It had a strong espresso flavor with bananas in it. The vegetable sandwich was very good and was loaded up. Highly recommend.

A little on the pricey side but overall good. I usually get the Morning Kick breakfast sandwich on their in-house made biscuits and its delicious. Definitely worth checking out!

Really nice atmosphere, the folks that helped us were fantastic, and the outdoor seating was nice. Sadly, the food was mediocre and the prices high for what you get. As someone doing a low carb diet they had few choices. And when they took off the delicious looking monster biscuit and put the egg and bacon on lettuce, charged me an additional $2 for it. I dont think 2 lettuce leaves are more expensive than a large home baked biscuit. I dont see myself going back any time soon.

Love the vibe and the selections. Friendly and helpful staff. If you love coffee, it’s a place to add to the list. Can’t wait for the night show when it is available!

Great room with quality music and excellent food, although a limited menu. Hot pastrami is a specialty and was great. Warm staff provided fine service. One large pillar leaves a good space behind it for dancing. An all around excellent, small venue for music.

The morning kick breakfast sandwich was unique and the biscuit was so good, I would go back for a sandwich every day if I could. All of the employees were kind, and do NOT even think of leaving without a slice of carrot cake if its there. Best I ever had!

My only complaint is Im there far too often! Even though I have high end espresso machine and buy their beans I still find myself going there for a cup of dark roast. Theyre by far the best coffee shop around.

Great coffee, great food, great people, and a nice place to be. A great place to grab breakfast or lunch and do a little teleworking from. Pre-Covid they also has great live music events with fantastic sound.

Great selection of coffees. Wish they wouldnt close kitchen so early. We were told at 4pm on Sundays kitchen closes, actual coffee place at 6pm.

Review №22

The latte was above average, the breakfast sandwich probably would have been better if I hadnt chosen a bagel, the bagel made the bread to not-bread ratio heavy on the bread side. Its a little late in the COVID game to still be making with the chairs on tables, follow the arrows routine. Its surprising how unwelcoming that whole schtick is at this point.

The Riverwalk cafe has great atmosphere to complement its equally good food and coffee. The cafe is only doing take-out service presently due to the pandemic. I hope you will join me in continuing to do business there - we do not want to lose this asset which is so valuable to Nashua.

Great coffee and breakfast sandwiches. Best cappacinos I have had in the area. I recommend the morning kick breakfast sandwich. Noteworthy that they make their own biscuits from scratch.

I recently moved from Nashua to Seattle, a city known for its nice cafes and coffee. Ive tried many places since coming here and truthfully, some might have had better coffee/espresso than here. But that doesnt matter. This place has an atmosphere and location that I have yet to find in Seattle. Something about it being near the top of main street with the excess of windows granting you a fairly comprehensive view of the main strip. Ill always hold fond memories of coming here every Sunday morning, getting the roast of the day, and sticking around with friends/family for hours. I would get work done, play chess with friends, or just enjoy a nice conversation. If we got hungry, we would just order a nice tasty homemade sandwich and stick around for even longer. That smaller, cozier area of the cafe was my mainstay, where I could sink into those fancy throne-like chairs and the sunlight warmed me up through the windows on a cold winter morning. It was peace. And thats only a part of this places identity. There are so many shows that go on at night with a bar to boot. I admittedly have not experienced that part of Riverwalk, but if it is remotely as nice as its cafe identity, its worth it.

We cannot forget our sense of humanity during these times. After a long drive, I arrived here early morning on my way up to the white mountains. The cafe was completely void customers when I arrived. There were 2 bathrooms on the premise, yet they were not permitting paying customers to use the bathrooms. I got my food, ate and watched 2 customers use the bathroom with no complaint from the staff. You will allow people to enter your restaurant and consume yet you do not allow them to use the facilities. Bad business practice; be more humane next time.

Spent a Sunday afternoon having tea and catching up with a close friend. The atmosphere was wonderful: clean, bright, and welcoming. The tea selection was rather good, though limited. The food was great. And they serve liquor in inexpensive 2 oz pours. And its a great selection. Better than the nearest bars. Highly recommend over your the Dunkin across the street.

Edit: 5 stars because its really a wonderful little coffee shop and I am highly impressed by the feedback taken by them. Dont miss out on stopping in. Food and coffee are delicious and place is spotless and bathrooms are open!!(Redacted: Food and coffee is great but the bathrooms are closed so you cant go in and wash your hands before eating. Kind of a big deal during a global pandemic.)

I love this place. Very nice place to have some coffee or tea and do you work on your laptop or diary. The vibe is so calm and peaceful with soft music. I once had the chance to see live performances by some bands on a fine fall morning. The banana bread, carrot cake and the cookies are so good. Tea selection is awesome for tea lovers

I usually add sugar to my coffee, but the espresso there has such an amazing flavor that its better with nothing added than any other coffee Ive had. I miss the Thursday night dances and the wonderful people who work there.

While the prices are a little high, it is certainly worth the quality. If I want to go to a café, this where I usually go. I do miss the live music, but I guess that cant be helped nowadays...

The Riverwalk Cafe & Music Bar offers occasional entertainment and some free offerings. It is a pleasant little place, but it was not fully prepared for the rush of folks who came to the Oct 2 free preview of Symphony New Hampshire. However, we enjoyed the time spent there, met some new people, had a tasty sandwich & beer. Overall, it was enjoyable!

Riverwalk cafe is a bit much on the hipster culture, but everything that they make is top notch quality. Coffee is potent and deliciously flavored. Biscuits are dense and rich. They also have musical performances in the evenings. Good place for a relaxed hangout with your friends.

This is a FANTASTIC place!! Staff was super nice and chill. Coffee was completely on point (coming from my wife - the coffee diva). Food was super tasty and ambiance was perfect on a rainy and chilly Autumn day. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area.

Review №63

The River walk is the place to go in Nashua for a unique and memorable atmosphere: a very hipster vibe. It beats out bonhoeffers and Buckleys for best espresso in the Nashua - Merrimack area. The breakfast sandwiches are superb. Good service, but nothing to elaborate on. However, it is quite pricey, and the coffee and tea are not as good as others.

Love this place. Excellent variety of breakfast sandwiches. We typically get a regular bacon egg and cheese on their biscuit bread and the girlfriend gets the feta cheese breakfast sandwich. We dont know how the coffee is but the chocolate is good enough for us snobs.

This is what a coffee house should be. The coffee is wonderful the bakery items are delicious and the atmosphere is one where you feel comfortable sitting and talking for as long as you wish.Although I have never been there they do offer live music in the evenings it is something I hope to have the chance to return for.

El
Review №69

This place is awesome. They definitely prioritize the music over say convo/ambience, but Im into that. If you want to come to talk, then Id probably recommend researching the type of music being played to be sure its not gonna ruin your evening OR coming early when there isnt a show in progress. That aside, personally this is my go to place to have a night out in Nashua. The music has been great but thats not the only reason I come. There is a great selection of food, drinks, and desserts, and the service is great. Highly recommend to anyone passing through or living in the area.

I visited Riverwalk Cafe & Music Bar on a Saturday night while staying in Nashua, NH. There was two bands playing there that evening so there was a $10.00 cover charge. Music was great in a small intimate setting. There is a limited menu of food/desserts you can buy - pot stickers and carrot cake both were excellent. Beer wine and of course coffee were available. If ever you are in Nashua, I highly recommend you check out the entertainment and the food.

I love this café - definitely my favorite place to get a specialty pick-me-up in downtown Nashua. Great selection of various teas and coffee drinks, desserts, and sandwiches with allergy/diet friendly options - highly recommend the Toffee Lovers latte with almond milk! Wonderful location with a spacious seating area and eclectic decor.

Very quiet place. Great for a quick sandwhich or soup alone and to get some work done. I love the eclectic style of the place and the chalk board walls. Very new age. The food items are excellent as well. They have all local beers and a large selection of coffee drinks as well as spirits. All around great lunch spot! Been here 3 times now

I come to Riverwalk when I have papers to write, and have never been dissatisfied. The staff are friendly and polite, the food is scrumptious (consisting of a selection of breakfast sandwiches, wraps, and lunchy sandwiches). I really like the coffee - ice coffee refills are $1 and are medium roast. The espresso beverages arent anything super special, but well made and tasty. The Riverwalk is also home to a modest selection of local crafts (jewelry, prints, cards, charms and trinkets) that is not overpriced. I have yet to attend a live music event, but it seems like there is plenty of space and seating.

Riverwalk Café is a wonderful little cafe. The breakfasts are really good and filling - they make their own homemade biscuits, very vegetarian friendly, but with many choices for omnivores too. They roast their own coffee, make delicious mocha lattes, and have many teas. They serve liquor, so you can get mimosas with your breakfast. They also have live music at night, and a nice dinner menu. Plenty of outlets for those who like to work from a coffee shop. I love it here, and visit about once a week with friends.

I salute this venue for being an outlet for talented local music! I drove an hour and a half to get there to see a particular band. Plan to be back to see other bands in the future. The food was yummy and the wait staff was friendly and fun. Parking was interesting... There was no parking right outside the venue. I ended up on the street about 2 blocks away.
