Riverside Cafe
1289 Lincoln Ave, Steamboat Springs, CO
Crema's Take
“Tucked into a cozy library nook in Steamboat Springs, Riverside Cafe feels like a secret that locals have been keeping to themselves—a place where Sophie and Henry craft thoughtfully composed dishes like white bean miso and wild rice bowls alongside expertly brewed coffee and homemade chai blends that cater beautifully to dietary sensitivities. The vibe is genuinely unhurried, perfect for lingering over matcha tea or a leisurely breakfast, with the kind of attention to detail that shows in everything from freshly baked bread to specialty drinks that go far beyond the typical café fare.”
What to expect
Strong matcha and tea selection. A slow-sit, outdoor seating spot, good for meetings. Full breakfast, pastries, and light food on the menu.
