The 39 best breakfast and brunch in Riga Region

The food here is delicious, the menu is pretty small and there is not much choice but what they do have is very nice. The waiter was rushing us with everything despite the restaurants being almost empty. What i enjoyed most is the atmosphere - it is a very cozy vibe and has a very aesthetic interior which is perfect to have good conversations.

8/10 Very interesting experience, me and my girlfriend came in off the street as we didn't know where to eat today. We where immideatly greeted by the waiter and sat down. As we got the menus I was delighted by the rich selection of food. The only problem was that the waiter kept bugging us and coming every other minute asking if we are ready to order again and again. We felt really rushed, this was a pattern throughout our experience, the waiter was very pushy. The food was absolutely amazing, although I don't recommend this for picky eaters the foods all have very very rich and flavourful tastes. A culinary experience but I can't say I'm eager to come back. Overall I would definitely recommend. :)

Fortuidously stumbled across this place while searching for "restaurants near me", what a divine inspiration it was. The food was incredible. Casper is a lovely human being and fabulous waiter. He provided recommendations and took very good care of us. Most respect to the Chef, you could tell from his food that he is passionate about what he does. We had the Burrata, the Civiche, the Pasta a Potato Pancake and the Strawberry Mousse with Olive Oil marinated Rhubarb. Wow! We'll definitely be back. Delightful service, exquisite food, cozy atmosphere. 💗🍴🙌🏼

Our small group went here for supper the other evening. We visited this restaurant quite some time ago and looked forward to our return. We were greeted kindly by staff and seated near the bar - comfy seats. The waiter took our drink and starters order and had them to our table very quickly. Both the antipasti plate and buratta were very good. We ordered our mains and enjoyed a few drinks while waiting. The waiter (also our bartender) was very friendly. He was suggesting drinks to suit our tastes and took time to explain how they were made. When our mains came out, the first thing to notice was the care taken for the presentation - they looked great. My risotto was rich and delicious, with the rice done perfectly. How good was it? Others at the table ordered one to share after their meal hahahaha. My wife's steak was cooked perfectly and tasted great. I would have to say everything was perfect at this point. The dessert choices were not quite what we were expecting. The chocolate chip cookie was a bit hard (almost like biscotti). The peanut butter cookie was good. I did order one of their main dessert selections - the Rhubarb Mousse. It was definitely something different - just not quite what I was expecting. Overall, this evening out was a great meal. The atmosphere, the food, the drinks, and service were great. Thanks for a great meal.

I visited this restaurant for lunch after reading several positive reviews, and I have to admit, the ambiance did make a good first impression. The interior is nicely decorated, with comfortable seating that creates a pleasant atmosphere. Unfortunately, the food didn’t live up to the reputation. I ordered the rabbit leg, which was completely lacking in seasoning and felt bland overall. The portion size was quite small compared to the price, making it feel overpriced for what was offered. The coffee I had afterward was also disappointing… Just average at best. On top of that, the staff didn’t come across as friendly or welcoming, which added to the underwhelming experience. Overall, I left surprised at how different my visit was compared to the glowing reviews I’d read beforehand. The ambiance is lovely, but the food and service definitely didn’t match the hype.

Exceptional breakfast buffet with a cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. The food selection was unique, high-quality, and beautifully presented. A perfect mix of classic and creative options. Highly recommend!

Small place with inside/outside seating (outside seating consists of 3 tables). It has low-lighting and cozy chairs creating an intimate atmosphere. There was only one waitress and she was hustling the entire time attending to every table. She was very polite, warm and accommodating. Having said this, I was felt rushed - not because she was busy - but because that is the vibe here. As for the food, I was not impressed. The edamame barely had any salt so I was essentially eating plain steamed edamame - no flavor just texture. The tuna tartare was unimpressive. The sweet potato puree was cold tasteless as was the tuna as it was thickly sliced and therefore the center was refrigerator-cold atop the cold puree and pesto. The highlight of this place for me was the relaxed vibe and cozy space. I would not recommend.

If you like great food at a reasonable price, the central market is waiting for you. SO MUCH FOOD! Everything was fresh and was as alluring to the nose as it was to the palate. So much variety, you will hardly know where to start. It's even fun if you're not hungry... just walk around and take it all in. Definitely recommend!

The best open market I’ve ever visited. Traditional meeting the modern in a wonderful mix. Vegetables, fruits, nuts fish, poultry, beef, clothes and lot of other things. I will be back.

I visited Riga Central Market, and it was such a vibrant experience. The market is huge and full of life you can find just about everything here, from fresh flowers and local foods to meats, cheeses, spices, and handmade goods. It’s a great place to discover authentic Latvian flavors and everyday life. The market is set inside historic old Zeppelin hangars, which gives it a unique and impressive atmosphere. Each pavilion specializes in different products, making it easy to explore and sample a wide variety of items. I especially enjoyed seeing the fresh produce stands and traditional Latvian treats. It’s not just a place to shop—it’s also a cultural experience, perfect for walking around, tasting, and soaking in the local vibe. Prices are fair, and you’ll find both locals and tourists enjoying the market. If you’re visiting Riga, this is definitely a must-see. 📍 Location: Nēģu iela 7, Riga, Latvia

Nice and quick lunch spot in the gastronomy market they have different restaurants where you can have local food and buy local cheeses and souvenirs. A nice quick stop in the city. Haven’t take any picture of the dumplings but they were very good.

Great place to sample the local food. There are plenty of fruit and veg stalls, flower stalls and clothing stalls as well as a food market inside. They sell all the traditional dishes for extremely reasonable prices so a great way to eat like the locals. It’s a vibrant, buzzing area that’s definitely worth a visit.

A very wide assortment of articles on offer in the five former zeppelin hangars and at stall outside. Numerous local specialities at sensible prices. The fish names were especially confusing. Just a short walk from the train station and bus stops.

Really big market with so much variety. There are different halls dedicated to different types of goods (the meat hall, the fish hall, etc). There's a hall that has eateries, and there are other retain shops throughout. Outside there are fresh fruits and vegetables as well as flowers. Definitely a must visit location for anyone visiting Riga.

Vegan desserts need some improvement, especially when they’re not cheap. I tried the raw cake and chia pudding and both were disappointing. The cake was way too sweet. The pudding lacked nice flavors and just tasted overwhelmingly of coconut. The place itself is very cozy and staff was friendly and pleasant.

Nice place!! I would recommend to reserve a table beforehand as it was quite popular around noon. The food was really delicious with several options. Four stars because the black coffee was really small and expensive.

I recently visited a charming breakfast spot in Riga that caught my eye with its cozy ambiance and delightful decor. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, but there's always room for a little fine-tuning. First off, the shakshuka – the presentation was on point, but the flavors left something to be desired. It felt like the spices took a vacation and forgot to come back. A little more seasoning would definitely give it the kick it needs to stand out. The coffee, while artfully presented, was a bit too acidic for my taste. Maybe it was just having a bad day, but a smoother blend would really complement the breakfast offerings better. One thing to note is the wait time. If you're planning a visit, bring along a good book or a chatty friend, because you'll have some time to kill before your food arrives. Patience is a virtue, right? All in all, it’s a lovely place with a great vibe, and despite the minor hiccups, it has a lot of potential. A few tweaks here and there, and it could easily become my go-to breakfast spot in Riga. Keep an eye on this place – it's definitely on the rise!

This is a great little gem in the heart of Riga. From all the brunch places we tried during our 4 day stay, this would definitely be one of the highlights. Healthy, delicious food that tastes fresh. There's something to be appreciated in the simplicity of the menu and the dishes - good, clean food. I had the bacon bowl and my wife had the hummus - both excellent choices. In fact, we liked it so much that we'll go tomorrow again. Also, the coffee was great.

Good food, fresh and tasty, forgot to take pictures of everything but it looks and tastes good. When crowded not the best option if you’re hungry and it can be crowded as the place is quite small.

I’ve tried shakshuka in many places around the city, but MR Fox truly makes the best one. The flavors are rich and balanced, the eggs cooked just right, and the fresh herbs bring it all together. It felt simple, honest, and absolutely delicious — the kind of dish that makes you want to come back.

Lovely place for breakfast. I had a salad and chocolate ball, both were very good. Communal table is comfy if you come on your own. Atmosphere is nice.

This place has an amazing atmosphere, with a beautiful interior and a warm, cozy vibe. I especially appreciated the indie pop/rock music playing in the background, it created a relaxed and enjoyable mood as I had my late breakfast and flat white. One of the highlights was the open workspace, where you can watch the staff baking fresh pastries and bread. It added a nice, authentic touch to the experience. The coffee was of good quality, though the cup was a bit on the small side. The food was delicious, I particularly loved the salted pastry with tomato and mozzarella, which was both flavorful and satisfying. The staff were friendly and helpful, and our coffees arrived very quickly, which we appreciated. We paid 24 euros for three pastries and two flat whites. It’s a bit on the pricey side, but considering the quality, atmosphere, and service, it felt well worth it. A very enjoyable experience overall.

Most of pastries in this bakery are sweet, so if you want a savoury one, I would not recommend. At my first visit I got poppy seed croissant roll. It was pretty good but kinda boring. There were not much poppy seeds in the pastry. 7/10. The second time I was there I got pistachio croissant. It was very sweet. The filling was upsetting - it was not creamy, more like homemade icing (I could feel sugar crystals). So, if you are not into really sweet things, I wouldn’t recommend. 6/10. Service and atmosphere is excellent. Pretty busy both times I was here, but that’s not a problem for me.

Very nice, clean, and modern bakery with high-quality baked goods and drinks. The price is perhaps on the slightly high-end, but it is worth it for the quality that you get. There are also separate male/female toilets available at the cafe.

Great coffee and pastries! Was recommended to me by a Latvian friend and I'm only sad I did not go sooner. Staff was really nice. Had a coffee & pastry at the shop. Then loved it so much I got a second coffee to go plus a sandwich and another pastry to eat later.

One of the best bakeries in the city. Quality is very high and taste is great. The prices are quite high but worth the product. Service is kind. Best filled croissants in Riga. Bread is ok but not the best.

I’ve had the best pan au chocolat here, it was perfect with a cappucino. They also have a yummy tiramisu and their offer of products overall is impressive.

Excellent coffee, the pastries were very tasty and the staff friendly. Also a nice and stylish building, near/in the Art Nouveau / Jugendstil area. Loved it!

The place to go to find no nonsense wines and try new & interesting options. Food was lovely in a nice, relaxing atmosphere. Opted for a shrimp pasta dish paired with a refreshing white and a chocolate mousse with a smooth pinot noir to finish.

The cottage cheese pancakes were very good! They were moist and soft inside, with an even texture, and were served not just warm, but hot. Not to mention the super friendly staff! Very attentive and made you feel very welcome🙌 I enjoyed my time here.

I had mixed experiences. While the Eggs Benedict I ordered was perfect, the service was not much. It took quite a while to get the attention of the waitress to place my order, and I had to seek them again for the bill. Additionally, I requested a boiled egg but received something different instead. The cottage cheese pancake was just average. I also want to add the quantity of the food compared to the price is over priced.

Lovely atmosphere, tasty food, friendly staff, and an added bonus — an unexpected outside terrace (accessed through the café), where street sounds are barely audible. It was a nice experience. I’d definitely recommend it. Additional bonus for my dog receiving water without asking, thank you! :)

We came here for brunch and the meal was stunning. They seem to specialise in eggs and it was definitely worth the higher price point. Would recommend to anybody visiting Riga.

I stumbled upon Lowine in Riga and am so glad I did! The staff were incredibly friendly and guided me through a wine tasting to help choose the perfect wine. I tried the avocado and salmon on sourdough was delicious and made with fresh ingredients. The ambience was lovely, and I would highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting Riga.

While traveling through the Baltic Countries we started to notice behaviour and approach of service staff towards clients. In a book called “de Nomade” by Anja Niewierra we read of the homo sovieticus, lion set free but so condtioned by living in cages that trapped outside in a mental cage. The same we feel with service. The approach is so strange. No greetings, no welcoming words, just ignoring the client and even avoid eye contact. Conversation is kept to bare minimum. It will take generations to lose this no service approach. Let’s hope it will come, this kind of good food needs better and friendlier interaction by staff. Coffee was surprisingly old fashioned with a good amount of robusta, so high on bitterness and low in acid ity. Strange strange looking at the winelist and the password for the Wifi : Naturalwine

Perfect place for parents with young kids. That was a surprise when I came here (my bad not checking the reviews) but I was surprised that so many kids are running around here. This is an amazing place for parents who want to have a tasty food while kids are doing something else. The food was really good and tasty. Nothing particularly special, just a good food. Quite a big range of foods to choose from. Good location, near Gallery Riga and center. Service was.nice.and polite. They accept reservations and on busy times I'd recommend to have one. They have two menus - one for breakfast and one for lunch. We were just in time for breakfast menu. For me this was kinda ok experience (nothing great) as I waited for tranquil lunch (but as I said my bad for not checking out the place beforehand). Staff was polite and friendly. I'll come back once I'll have kids for sure.

Might be a good stop for parents as the place has a lot for kids. Unfortunately we visited when cool was way so only boxed salads, quiches or soup. Disappointing for kids expecting more choices including pasta meal - might have to give it a chance again. Decently priced meals. Coffee available.

Awesome rich breakfast plate. Just a minor issue with salmon not cut from its skin and bread should be rye bread instead of white toast bread. Staff was so kind. Matcha was also great.

super cozy place, especially if you are coming with kids! everyhting is kids friendly. for breakfast time I suggest reserving a table beforehand. super tasty! there are also tables where you can work on pc

I liked the place: stuff and atmosphere is very friendly, good location. But I can’t say that the food was fantastic, it was good but not amazing 🥲.

I really loved this place! Such a great getaway spot for parents, and I love that someone in the food industry actually takes kids’ needs into account. Beautifully designed, nice toys, great location, and good food!

An absolute gem! The place is catering for the needs of both parents and kids. There is a playroom; bathroom facilities are equipped for small customers; they even offer bibs for kids - very thoughtful. I liked every bit - customer service, food, design and the choice of music played - nice and relaxing. My only constructive feedback point is - cutlery - the knife was blunt and the fork/knife handles are so thin - it literally hurt my fingers to use them.

Cozy Breakfast Spot with Room to Improve A lovely place for breakfast with friendly service. The Francis omelet and avocado toast with mozzarella were delicious, beautifully presented, and made with quality ingredients. The American pancakes, although visually appealing, were very tough—so firm it was hard to cut them with a knife. Still, a nice spot overall, but the kitchen has some room to improve. 🍳🥑🥞

So far the best place in Riga's centre to have coffee (and work in my case)! Very nice and attentive staff, cozy atmosphere, soft music, and good coffee. Nice place for breakfast or lunch, as here you can find much bigger variety than in a usual coffee shop. Highly recommended!

Superb spot for a late brunch. The avocado toast with poached egg and salmon was delicious! Great Matcha latte also. Definitely recommend!

LP (8/7): The food was delicious and the staff service were excellent. I would like to recommend this café. Great location and walkable.

This place serves the best coffee I have had in Riga (so far, at least). The menu is accessed via QR code, which seems to be quite common here, but I expect there are other ways to order if you don't have a smartphone. The food was good (although there were no potatoes, and I love potatoes), and the atmosphere was great. The staff were very friendly and spoke excellent English.

Innocent Café was a decent stop for breakfast in Riga. The food leans more towards an American-style breakfast, and while nothing too unique, both the dishes and the coffee were tasty.

Although coffee is a bit expensive, 1€ extra for alternative milk this place is a gem. Waitresses are really friendly and food is awesome. I had a tunna sandwich for breakfast and then the daily menu which is only 7.99€ . Highly recommendable.

Cappuccino and Flat White was really good. Macaroon & Straciatella Cake was amazing too!

Definitely recommend this place, especially in warm weather! They have a charming inner open courtyard that’s perfect for working or relaxing. There’s even a cable available for electricity, so you can comfortably work on your laptop if you enjoy spending time in cafes. The menu has a great variety—not just coffee, but also a solid selection of teas. I also tried the cherry smoothie and it was absolute perfection. Special shout-out for their toilets—clean and really unordinary, in the best way! Highly recommended!

One of the best place in Riga to chill, rest and work. The great atmosphere, cosy terrace and adorable service! Very tasty coffee. Thank you very much! See you!

A lovely coffee shop right in the city center, decent for a quick stop with something sweet and a drink. I tried their very fresh cannolo with a regular Americano and left quite happy. Recommended!

I dropped by this café shortly before closing and was pleasantly surprised. The banana bread was tasty, and the atmosphere felt warm and comfortable. The bartender was friendly and attentive, which made the short visit enjoyable. A nice place for a quick stop if you’re in the area.

Lovely café with cute and helpful staff. I had “pancakes” filled with cheese and sour cream and drank black coffee, everything tasted great. If you are super hungry you should probably eat something more. The quiche was good too, according to my friend!

Relaxing with a great cappuccino on a casual Sunday morning. The outside setting was the perfect spot for a zen moment in the sunshine.

A few years ago it was a great place, I don’t know what happened, but it’s not the same anymore… The service is absolutely useless: the waitress took a very long time to bring the menu and didn’t take the order for a long time. Waiting for the food was also veeery long. The portions have become smaller and the prices higher. The appearance of the food doesn’t look very presentable. I was shocked to see a dirty sink and a dirty floor in a place like this. They present themselves as a fancy bakery/cafe, but in reality they’re lacking aesthetics, good quality and politeness.

We used to visit Mulberry on Ausekļa street quite often, but unfortunately, the atmosphere there has noticeably deteriorated lately. One particularly unpleasant experience involved a person who appeared to be either the administrator or the manager - it doesn’t really matter who exactly. Swearing at staff members in front of guests is completely unacceptable. Such behavior shows a clear lack of respect for both the employees and the customers. I genuinely feel sorry for the staff who have to work in such conditions. The service has definitely declined, but given the management style, it’s not surprising. The food is tasty, but nothing exceptional. Prices are reasonable for the quiet center. The final straw was a situation where, due to a large number of guests, one of the female guests accidentally bumped into a table, and a vase broke. The manager’s reaction - shouting across the entire restaurant - came off as completely unprofessional and humiliating.

We visited Mulberry on Sunday and enjoyed coffee and dessert. However, I was surprised that when I asked for a glass of water, I was told this is not provided. In many places, serving water with coffee and sweets is seen as a small but important gesture of care and hospitality. Even a simple glass of tap water, especially when a guest asks for it, makes the experience feel more welcoming. It would be wonderful if Mulberry could consider this, as it really adds to the comfort of your guests and leaves a warmer impression.

Nice cafe. Wifi available. Extremely overpriced… probably could find someplace better in Riga than this. Service was okay. Coffee was not good but the cake was a hit better. They are beautifully made, but just too expensive (6€+ for a small cake??).

The sourdough bread, croissants, and pastries are good. Unfortunately, the service is terrible. You can stand at the counter for five minutes hoping someone will notice you, while several staff members are busy doing something else. And it's happening almost every time. Great bakery, but the service really ruins the experience.

Quality of service has dramatically dropped to the level when you have to choose another venue and just skip Mulberry at any cost. Owners - you got to make people you have newly employed actually notice customers and move around, not just stand. This is a disaster... Food is great though. But there are plenty other options around.

Tried something new today. A burnt pistachio eclair with a poor quality of chunky cream, is not what I expected. The regular buns are still good

One of Riga’s true gems ⭐️ Chambao has quickly become one of my absolute favorite spots in the city. Their breakfast menu is very tasty, with thoughtful options for kids and later in the day, they serve some of the most authentic Mexican flavors you’ll find in Riga. To top it off, the cocktails are simply exceptional—easily among the best I’ve ever had. A must-visit for food lovers and cocktail enthusiasts. And what’s also important - staff is always so friendly and nice!

Chambao delivered one of the best breakfasts of the stay. The décor was bright and stylish, giving the place real character from the moment you walked in. The food matched the setting, served fresh and well presented, with flavour and variety across the menu. The staff were enthusiastic and clearly enjoyed being part of the place, which made the service smooth and friendly. It felt like more than just a quick breakfast stop — it was an experience worth highlighting, and one of the stronger meals overall. Loved their eggs & potato pie!

Finnally I have found Mexican style place in Riga. First - attitude from employees: we come before breakfast time end and chef was kind enough to agree to take our non-breakfast order. I was afraid to take halapenjo starter, but I took it based on advise from waiter. It is the best starter, I have eaten. If you like spicy food, you should try it. And desert: my boyfriend, who ussualy dont eat deserts, ate it. Must come to visit, if you like Mexican food🎉💕✨

Tasty and well served food! Had my pancake day - first dish - potato pancakes and for desert - cottage cheese pancakes - love it, I recommend! Friendly and calm atmosphere! I will come back to try other food and to chill and relax! Thank You!

We went with friends for lunch, while making a reservation the waitress mentioned that they only were working until four, unfortunately she did forget to mention that they were only serving breakfast that day. Because of that even tho the food was good, it wasn’t what we had in mind when we made the reservation. The food was good ( we had the ranchero, guacamole roster with salmon and taste with strachatela ). I should also recommend the churros, they are served with homemade caramel and chocolate sauce.

This Mexican restaurant is the best I've ever visited. I will definitely return! The service is excellent, and the atmosphere is enjoyable. The location is outstanding. I loved the food so much, it was enjoyable with my eyes. But the taste is 10 out of 10. ⭐

come for a drink but eat somewhere else - the food is decent at best and there's a long waiting time from order to delivery (even when customers are few). if you have to eat here, avoid the raw tuna...

Really enjoyed my visit here. The service is very friendly and the coffee tastes great. They have a good vegetarian breakfast selection and also a nice choice of cakes. You can sit both inside and outside, and the modern interior makes it a cozy and stylish place to relax. A good spot whether you’re coming for breakfast or just for a coffee break. The porridge was ok, though it could have used a bit more fruit on top and was surprisingly firm to the bite for porridge. The avocado with egg was also fine, but not particularly overwhelming.

Lunch offer. Salad + soup = 8.50 €. Very light, not filling. Mango Marakuja cake 5 euro, taste 6/10.

Visited for breakfast and this place is a must-go in Riga!! Food was insanely delicious and service is top! Ordered the potato pancakes with chia caviar, and tofu salad for mains. Matcha latte for a drink, and a pistachio tart...which was heaven on the lips! Vegetarian place and these were all vegan options. Sat in the outside area as the weather was lovely.

Beautiful place and delicious food! It was such a pleasant surprise to find a place with so many vegan food options. I had a wrap with mushrooms 10/10 Also very kind staff and cozy atmosphere

Amazing food. After long deliberation i chose jackfruit 🌮 tacos..wow!! Side order of Nachos. My friend had mushroom burger and sweet potatoe fries...good choice all round..we took home a nutty 'snickers' bar' and a chocolate coconut bar...yum 🙌

visited for breakfast on our first day in Riga and glad we did. plenty of food options with allergens clearly listed which was helpful for me with a milk allergy. coffee and match a both high quality and delicious. staff were very friendly and helpful.

Very disappointing omelette, almost inedible from being so intensely greasy. Side salad was mostly frisee, which is good, yet makes for a very bare salad, especially with the cucumber sliced so thinly. Service was dull and sullen and I left with a queasy stomach. Grapefruit juice, at least, was fine. Was expecting much better from a place that touts being healthy.

I would say it it THE BEST coffee shop in Riga. It always full and there’re few reasons for this. There are few options of beans for espresso. I choose Ethiopia beans with fruity and sour taste. Next time I will try another option. Also, would be great to ask for different water proportions and grinding. I like 1 to 2 water proportion, it should make it less sour. My friend’s late art 🖼️ was beautiful 🤩 I wish see any other late art themes by request or pay 💰 Panini with chicken was very tasty. The right size. Great to have some gluten free options for people with lower tolerance and simply for healthier lifestyle. There are a lot of people with laptops. Great that there is such option. I like to visit such places, were feels a startup spirit. I wish Rocket Beans’ stocks to the moon 🚀🚀🚀

I wanted to check where all the cool kids hang out, so I went here. Great coffee in a huge space with sweet and savoury food options and wife. Well stocked retail side for your coffee needs.

Sometimes it’s packed to the brim, with barely a seat in sight, but honestly, that’s part of the charm. ❤️ The coffee is unmatched, especially the latte: smooth, velvety, and always exactly what you need, whether it’s 8am or 4 in the afternoon when life feels a bit too much. It’s a haven for students, dreamers, thinkers, anyone who needs a moment of peace or a place to feel inspired. The service is always kind, never rushed. Warm lighting, the soft hum of conversations and keyboards, the scent of freshly ground beans - it all makes Rocket Bean more than a café. It’s a ritual. A refuge. My safe place in the middle of the city ☕️

Cool place to have a coffee! It is also possible to work, many people does. I got the batch brew from Brazil but I wasn’t very impressed, the tones I got was reminder the vinegar most. It is a personal taste as well I am sure that they have other coffee beans more suitable to my taste. Mozzarella sandwich with rye bread was great though. Also the staff is very nice and helpful, they let me try also the other batch of the from Tanzania (which I also also didn’t like much because it has the citrus tones). I would recommend if you are in the neighbourhood. This is one of the best cafes in the town..

I wasn’t really a coffee person, but man, this place literally changed me! Great coffee, pastries as well as other drinks and foods. Plenty of seats, super welcoming staff and atmosphere, you can see the guys making your sandwich, roasting your coffee, location is among the best streets in the city. Gun to head, life on the line, I couldn’t name a single thing I dislike about this place!

Great place, very good coffee and pastry. Nice atmosphere, good music.

Great coffee and great pastries. Sometimes there's a little queue, but nothing that lasts too long. Lots of vegetarian options. The poppyseed bun was awesome and I'm craving that EVERYDAY now

We had a birthday party brunch, The salad bars were good The food in general was good, but the salmon wasn't fresh. For this place I hope to have more choice. The service wasn't friendly.

Tried the lunch offer — and it was a real mix of highs and lows. The pumpkin soup was awful: watery, bland, and without any real taste or spices. Honestly felt like blended pumpkin water — probably the worst soup I’ve had in a while. But the honey cake completely saved the meal — soft, moist, and full of flavor. Absolutely delicious!

This place has a great atmosphere outdoors during the summer weather. Waiter was nice. Food was ok quality, but expected a bit better for this price. Serving not the quickest one. No parking available, some crossovers were parked on a curb. Just one toilet available.

A lovely calm space just outside Old Town, away from all the hustle of the tourist centre. Fabulous food served at a calm pace, with attentive and polite staff. The garden area is beautiful, as is the interior space. It was easily reached from Old Town by the regular and efficient bus service. We are so glad we tried it!

A nice and cozy place. I had a Sunday brunch here, everything was tasty. Nice people and accommodating. Great place to visit when in Riga 🥂

I will be completely honest bout this place and experience. We waited 1 and half hour for our main course. You couldn’t catch the staff attention for another drink if your life depended on it . The food is nothing special at all. The prices are outrageous. Here you have it. And they push it on you to leave a tip In a very slick way.

This place is amazing respite from the stress of city life, and just s short drive away. Great for families, couples, and even solo. You will not be disappointed! Go and enjoy the food, the atmosphere, the service.. It is just lovely.....

Great pastry and desert! The lady was the most amazing person I have encountered. I tried to order food with my poor Latvian, she not only was very patient and understanding but also corrected my mistakes in a very soft way. Nice and cozy environment for a cup of coffee and great food.

Nice breakfast (fabulous cream croissant) ,nice service and very good music (Harry Styles) It’s the perfect place!

Extremely bad quality and size for the price. Used to be great but now feels like spit in the face frankly. Perhaps a new owner? Could not go down fast enough.

Very tasty and fresh deserts for good price, cosy place. Recommend

Wonderful café! Absolutely lovely and helpful staff. Refreshing to see smiles and pride of what they serve. Amazing pastries both sweet and savory. 100% recommendable!

Pastries, cakes and coffee

Delicious sweets, great prices, relaxing atmosphere

Shocking service Dismissive and lazy waiters who were only attentive to a table full of dressed up females. Found the initial attentiveness positive however this changed. We had unlimited Prosecco but this was never topped up and the male waiters were more concerned with flirting with another table and constantly filling their drinks and no one else. Waiters asked several times if they could fill drinks and eventually they half filled glasses where again the table of females managed to get full glasses. Without asking. Will never recommend this place as it was terrible. Waiters also asked for coffee and half the orders missed. They were then rude or dismissive. Bill then arrived where they overcharged on some items. Shocking attitude and behaviour

Went for a Sunday brunch. Nice kitchen menu, friendly service, free bubbles 🥂 Also a virgin option! Great experience if you want something out of the ordinary.

Service was good, starter and main were served promptly together, the cauliflower was cold already…

We attended the pre Christmas brunch The service was terrible, food was good, atmosphere was ok. The service was appalling for this kind of place, the waiters were not attentive and there were not enough of them. We had to constantly ask to top up the glasses, meanwhile they would always top up table next to us. Waiters would not take the dirty plates fast enough, coffees were arriving slow and then they would forget to bring one coffee and would take ages. One waiter would forget something and then we would ask another waiter again. The quality of coffee was very bad, like water. The prosecco that was included in the brunch was not always the same and we would be topped up with different one, which is just not what you expect in a restaurant of this level. In the end we were overcharged on the bill. The drink some of us ordered was 12 euros on the menu, but they tried to charge 18. After confronting them they said it was an old menu and price is now higher. We refused to pay the difference. Another negative is that the staff only spoke english, which is unusual and annoying for locals that do not speak English. The pianist was playing nice music, so one of not many positives. The restaurant is trying to be classy and posh, but under delivers

Don’t even think about going there for a meal. Didn’t live up to the reputation of the hotel at all. The place was empty on a Friday night when we went there around 10pm and we had to walk around to find someone to get a table. Our waiter didn’t even have a smile on him and didn’t bother to even introduce the menu. He made us feel like we were a burden to them and I almost wanted to walk out but my parter wanted to try their food. And the food was NOT good at all. I had the scallops and prawns pasta which was very ordinary and the Duck my partner had was quite bland and boring. The chocolate cake desert was so dry and hard and had no character at all. The cream buley was served with fruits and a sorbet and it was such an unmatched confusion! The actual cream buley portion was so little and I was very upset. Kempinski needs to get the act together and hire a good chef with a creative mind and may be train their staff not only in service but social skills !

Tea ceremony is interesting

(Translated by Google) Was there during Riga Restaurant Week It's beautiful and pathetic inside As a welcome sign there was quince lemonade Compliment smoked tofu and tapioca pearls Tasty Crispy chicken, bao bun, sriracha mayonnaise, pickled cabbage, carrots Nothing wrong, there could have been more vegetables and sauce 7 out of 10 Teriyaki salmon, wakame seaweed, daikon, cucumber, broccoli I cook teriyaki salmon and it tastes better! Very few vegetables for such a portion of salmon, no sauce for vegetables, not impressed at all! 7 out of 10 Earl Gray tea cube, yuzu, lemon This nonsense that was called dessert was completely surprising! There was no Earl Gray cube, but a brioche bun, two fried cubes, champagne foam, yuzu cream and a couple of dried fruits. The bun was no good, the yuzu cream made my face hurt, it was so sour! Do they even taste it before serving it???!!! 3 out of 10 30€ Expensive, not tasty and nothing at all! And this is Kempinski?! After the first bad experience, The restaurant really values ​​its customers, and gave them a compliment by inviting them to lunch at the restaurant’s expense. Compliment from the chef, homemade hummus, tomato salsa I've never liked hummus, but this time it was amazing! A very tasty compliment 30 day aged beef ribeye, seasonal vegetables Beautiful presentation, tasty meat, tender, soft, but they didn’t come cooked well, I just ordered medium, got medium well, but not terrible, excellent grilled vegetables, bell peppers, broccoli, I especially liked the eggplant, good sauce 8 out of 10 This time I liked everything I'll definitely come again (Original) Был на рижскую неделю ресторанов Внутри красиво и пафосно В знак приветствия был лимонад из айвы Комплимент копчёный тофу и жемчуг из тапиоки Вкусно Хрустящий цыпленок, булочка Бао, шрирача-майонез, маринованная капуста, морковь Ничего так, овощей и соуса могло быть и больше 7 из 10 Лосось терияки, водоросли вакаме, дайкон, огурец, брокколи Я готовлю лосось терияки и то вкуснее! Очень мало овощей на такую порцию лосося, никакого соуса для овощей, вообще ничем не впечатлил! 7 из 10 Чайный куб Эрл Грей, юзу, лимон Эта несуразица которая называлась десертом вообще удивила! Никакого куба Эрл Грей не было, а была булочка бриошь два кубика из неё пожареные, пена из шампанского, юзу крем и пара сухофруктов. Булочка была никакая, от юзу крема сводило лицо какой он был кислый! Они вообще пробуют перед тем как подавать это???!!! 3 из 10 30€ Дорого, не вкусно и вообще никак! И это Kempinski?! После первого неудачного опыта, ресторан очень ценит своих клиентов, сделал комплимент пригласив на обед за счёт ресторана. Комплимент от шеф повара, домашний хумус, томатная сальса Мне вот никогда не нравился хумус, но в этот раз он был потрясающий! Очень вкусный комплимент Рибай из говядины 30 дневной выдержки, сезонные овощи Красивая подача, мясо вкусное, нежное, мягкое, вот только не попали с прожаркой, заказывал просто medium, получил medium well, но не страшно, отличные овощи с гриля, болгарский перец, брокколи, особенно понравился баклажан, хороший соус 8 из 10 В этот раз мне всё понравилось Обязательно зайду ещё

The Food was delicious, well seasoned and presented. Even tho the place was full when we arrived we got a table in a few minutes and the food didn’t take long. We had the cottage cheese pancakes with seasonal jam and the Benedict breakfast. The only thing I’d do next time be making a reservation.

After seeing Cafe Mimosa mentioned in almost every breakfast review before my trip to Riga, Latvia, I decided it had to be my first breakfast stop. My initial impression was positive, the simple, tasteful design gave it a better than average feel. I ordered their popular poached eggs with asparagus, as well as a poached egg on gravlax over a potato pancake. Both dishes were simply amazing in terms of taste and texture. That said, the portions were extremely small for real! We ended up ordering traditional pancakes just to avoid being hungry before starting our first long day exploring the city. I realize portion sizes in Riga are generally smaller, but it’s still worth mentioning! On the service side, I had to wait nearly 10 minutes for the bill before finally going to the counter to pay myself, as the request had been forgotten. For everything (the dishes above plus two regular coffees), the total came to €49! Overall, while the food was excellent, I’m not sure I’d recommend it to travelers on a tighter budget, given the portion sizes and overall value. I tried to make this review as honest as possible.

I stopped by for a last minute lunch. The interior was very pleasant and stylish, the staff were super friendly. Fantastic menu and food was served very quickly. I enjoyed every bite! Everything I ordered was delicious. I recommend oat porridge with coconut milk and cherry jam, this was the best. The alternative milk they had was Pea milk which is rare to find, well done. Highly recommend this place!

I loved the food quality and the way it was presented. Definitely worth taking pictures. The coconut porridge was good, but the portion was very small. The omelette is one of the best in town, in my opinion, but adding extra salmon and avocado makes it a bit pricey (17€+). Overall, it’s a lovely place with beautiful food and interior, but slightly overhyped.

I’ve been here twice. The interior is very stylish, and the location is convenient, close to the quiet center. Both times we came for breakfast, the place was fully packed, so it’s worth booking a table in advance to avoid waiting at the entrance. The first time, I tried the Eggs Benedict. Nothing special, though I was expecting more because of what my friends and the internet reviews said. The second time, I went for their chicken sandwiches - and those were truly unique and delicious. Everything came together perfectly: fresh cabbage, grilled chicken, spiciness, and a hint of sourness. It was simply magical. On the same day, I also tried my friend’s cottage cheese pancakes, and those were disappointing. They had a nice crispy crust on the outside, but the inside was slimy and runny. There are a lot of tables for such a small place, which sometimes makes it feel less cozy. I might come back again just for the sandwiches.

Food was excellent, found this place from recommendations via TikTok, but it really wasn’t overrated! Smaller portions however they were super delicious and flavorful, coffee was very good too. The vibe was great, super stylish people around

We had such a lovely time at Caffe Mimosa in Riga! 🥰 The place has a modern, fresh vibe that makes it perfect for a casual brunch or a relaxed meal in the city. We ordered the omelette with fried rice, a hearty chicken sandwich loaded with flavor, and fresh fruit drinks, and everything was absolutely delicious. The presentation was neat, portions were generous, and the taste didn’t disappoint at all. The drinks were especially refreshing and paired perfectly with the food. Service was friendly and quick, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. This café definitely knows how to do comfort food with style. ⭐ 10/10 Highly recommended!

This is such a beautiful, little restaurant especially when you’re surrounded by loud, touristy places. The food was fantastic, really fresh and the wait staff were super friendly and chatty and you could tell they liked their job. The downstairs outside seating area is tiny and it’s next to a hookah bar but they do have a roof terrace. It was closed because of a storm but I imagine it would be lovely up there.

We had a nice time sitting at the rooftop café in Riga’s Old Town. The place has seating on three levels: a bar on the first floor, restaurant tables on the second, and outdoor spots on the rooftop. Service was good and friendly. Recommend to visit.

Pretty cool n cozy place. Rooftop is small but very cozy. Just drinks, no food on rooftop, but I understand that it's very tough to serve people food up 4 floors of 500 year old narrow steep stairs. Worth a visit. I recommend.

Very cozy restaurant. Wine was great. Pheasant filet was a bit dry. We were served very fast but we also were the only guests. Sizes are small and expansive but if you like good dining, this is a good place. Nothing for families with kids. Staff was very good and fluent in english.

Small outdoor seating area, unfortunately next to a shisha smoking bar. Otherwise great place. The food was outstanding, so was the service. Prices are on the higher side.

A marvelous find while strolling through the streets of Riga. The interior is a cozy labyrinth of corners and rooms, with a warm, historical atmosphere. And the service? Absolutely stellar – warm, genuine, and wonderfully attentive. A memorable visit in every way!

We tried the scallops, the parrot fish and the octopus. Everything was nice. Service was good and it is quite lovely inside (especially when it is cold outside 😅).

I had mixed experiences. While the Eggs Benedict I ordered was perfect, the service was not much. It took quite a while to get the attention of the waitress to place my order, and I had to seek them again for the bill. Additionally, I requested a boiled egg but received something different instead. The cottage cheese pancake was just average. I also want to add the quantity of the food compared to the price is over priced.

The place to go to find no nonsense wines and try new & interesting options. Food was lovely in a nice, relaxing atmosphere. Opted for a shrimp pasta dish paired with a refreshing white and a chocolate mousse with a smooth pinot noir to finish.

Lovely atmosphere, tasty food, friendly staff, and an added bonus — an unexpected outside terrace (accessed through the café), where street sounds are barely audible. It was a nice experience. I’d definitely recommend it. Additional bonus for my dog receiving water without asking, thank you! :)

We came here for brunch and the meal was stunning. They seem to specialise in eggs and it was definitely worth the higher price point. Would recommend to anybody visiting Riga.

Lovely atmosphere, fresh place. The food was very good, we had two different potato pancakes, one with salmon and one with poached egg and bacon. For drinks we had lemonades. Definitely recommend for brunch/lunch.

I stumbled upon Lowine in Riga and am so glad I did! The staff were incredibly friendly and guided me through a wine tasting to help choose the perfect wine. I tried the avocado and salmon on sourdough was delicious and made with fresh ingredients. The ambience was lovely, and I would highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting Riga.

While traveling through the Baltic Countries we started to notice behaviour and approach of service staff towards clients. In a book called “de Nomade” by Anja Niewierra we read of the homo sovieticus, lion set free but so condtioned by living in cages that trapped outside in a mental cage. The same we feel with service. The approach is so strange. No greetings, no welcoming words, just ignoring the client and even avoid eye contact. Conversation is kept to bare minimum. It will take generations to lose this no service approach. Let’s hope it will come, this kind of good food needs better and friendlier interaction by staff. Coffee was surprisingly old fashioned with a good amount of robusta, so high on bitterness and low in acid ity. Strange strange looking at the winelist and the password for the Wifi : Naturalwine

Aesthetically pleasing coffee/chocolate spot with a well-thought-out design and attention to detail. However, the service was a bit slow.

Such a lovely little spot where every detail has been thought through. Wonderful service from the barista, who was really friendly and kind. Love the fact that the cafe is tucked away from the main streets of the city centre while still remaining central, definite adds to the charm.

This café is really overrated. Ordered two americanos, got them in paper mugs without even being asked if it's takeaway or not. Coffee was just ok, definitely not worth a slightly higher price than some other average place. All that would be perfectly normal. But the clearly unpleasant or even angry attitude of the person working at the café made the whole short visit just ridiculous. Why open a café if you don't like having customers? Just change the name to The End and close this place down. Latvian people are not very friendly in general, but this was over the top.

had the best a iced americano of my life here! super friendly chatty staff which you don’t find often in riga, and let me use their charger so a double slay. keep in mind - the cafe is quite small, so bigger tables to seat a larger company won’t be possible

Actually one of the best coffees I have had in a while- cappuccino decaf was just perfect. It was a little loud inside with the music and as the place is small and I was there at an hour when it was quiet, it was a bit akward haha. Design is cute, great tables and an outdoor terrace. Don’t expect a nice view as the buildings on the street are very run down.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The Ned is a gem! The filter coffee is absolutely delicious, and their vegan cakes are a must-try. The barista is incredibly friendly, making every visit enjoyable. Located on a quiet street, it offers a cozy atmosphere inside and a lovely terrace outside. Perfect spot to relax and enjoy some quality coffee and treats.

a very nice strength wise coffee 🤌🏻

Phenomenal place to stay in Riga. Beautiful, well maintained room. Communication was great. The included parking was near and a great bonus! Would definitely recommend.

(Translated by Google) Great accommodation! Cleanliness is hard to beat, no dust or dirt anywhere. The room is of very high quality, lots of small details and matching decoration make you feel comfortable. I have never stayed in such beautiful accommodation. (Original) Tolle Unterkunft! Sauberkeit kaum zu übertreffen, nirgends Staub oder Dreck. Das Zimmer ist sehr hochwertig, viele kleine Details und passende Dekoration machen ein wohliges Gefühl. Ich war noch nie in solch einer schönen Unterkunft untergebracht.

(Translated by Google) Smooth check-in, nice clean accommodation, parking nearby. (Original) Reibungsloser Check-in, schöne saubere Unterkunft, Parkplatz liegt in der Nähe.

Lovely stay and Miro was incredibly understanding and accommodating. Thank you, and I would recommend.

We heard that this place has good BBQ options, but due to our diet we had no option to experience it. Our friends had a fish with an octopus, we had all kinds of vegan salads. Everything tasted good except the lemonade (it was too sugary) and the seasonal bbq veggies (those were saggy). Otherwise the food was awesome, service was good as well. One small issue is that they charge €3.50 for a small sriracha sauce, they should have tell us in advance. I don’t recon a place where they charge for that. Might be back to try their BBQ if end up going to Jurmala again.

The appetizer soup was so delicious and my hopes were so high. Unfortunately the octopus wasn't that great. It felt like it was not properly cooked and the seasoning did not flavour it as much as it should. I requested for a sauce to be able to eat it. Others enjoyed their food so overall, it's a 4-star this time. Perhaps when we visit again we can have a better experience.

Top 10 for Jūrmala. The service is exceptional. Well done to the chefs and service staff. I had dinner and breakfast here on two occasions!

Probably the best place in the area. The food was glorious! The staff are sharp, polite and delivered every single time. This is the place where I had probably the best pizza in my life. The Italians should come and learn how to do it! Advice for the management: make tipping possible via credit card.

Absolutely stunning food. We were so impressed by this restaurant. The lady who was serving us, was so polite and friendly. The food was amazing and we couldn't fault it. The place wasn't that busy, maybe it was off season. The drinks were perfect and the desserts were top class too. This place is located close to Jurmala, which is half an hour drive from Riga city. Overall a great place and would totally recommend.

Situated on the busy strip of Jomas Iela, there are plenty of eateries about here. The place looks rather welcoming, so why not. Initially couldn’t decide between a light lunch or a full on pig out. The decision was kind of made for me. This place needs some staff management, it was utter chaos. It was near impossible to get someone to take my order. Some of the staff could only seat people or clear tables but apparently not take your order. It’s a shame really. The food when it did make an appearance was rather good. I chose the tagliatelle with beef and boletus. The beef was well flavoured and the mushroom was both soft and muscular. Coating it all was this thick jus-like sauce which was very moreish. It was the perfect light lunch dish.

thank you for the extensive, creative and delicious vegan menu! I only wish the portions were larger ;)

Good selection for savory food for breakfast. We had for ex a pastry with salmon and leek. My mushroom omelette was tasty with cheese and darker bread with lots of seeds. There could have been more fresh tomatoes and cucumber. The fruity pastry was very good, not too sweet (like pastries very often do). Three workers at the konditory and none of them spoke english. There was no menu and all the names were only in latvian. Since the goods they sell have mostly the same name all the time, it should not be too much work to search the names in english and put them on a list.

A very nice bakery-coffeehouse right in the main street of Jurmala. Quite typical Latvian service though, but the fresh flavours of our delicacies compensated it.

Cute cafe with delicious food! Lots of options, there is no English on the menu but the staff were able to communicate. Great stop near the beach / train station

The best cakes I've tried in a long time. Honestly. Friendly and polite staff, which is also very important. Will definitely be back!

Nice place for a drink and snack. We had coffee and savoury pastries midday, then returned for tea and cakes because the cakes looked fresher than other places in town. The apple tart was delicious. Staff were helpful and spoke good English. The washroom (one, shared gender) was fairly clean).

Great coffee and pastries at affordable prices, even being at the heart of the touristic area! Very cozy setup!

Good selection of cakes. Double espresso 3,70€ Friendly service.

Fine dining in a welcoming atmosphere is what you find at Elements. With a menu of many delicious plates made it difficult to chose for me and my friend when we had dinner here. The restaurant design is great at night with dim lighting making it feel intimate and relaxed. For starters I loved the tuna tartare with soba noodles sesame chips, tarragon jelly, and wasabi cucumber spaghetti, as it was fresh, tender and the wasabi added a spiciness that paired well with the fish. My friend chose the aged-beef carpaccio with rocket salad, homemade olive tapénade, grissini, and fresh grated cheese as her starter, saying the mix of tart tapenade and mature cheese were the perfect addition to the beef. For my main dish, I chose the duck breast truffle-flavoured mashed potatoes, Brussels sprouts, pickled onions, cherry sauce on a black rock grill. The filet melted in my mouth after I cooked it on the grill on the table, it was fun way to eat the duck. My friend went for the rack of lamb roasted-garlic mashed potatoes, plum chutney, herb almond crumbs and she was more than happy with her choice. For dessert, I just had to try the lemon lava cake caramelized meringue, chocolate soil, and dried raspberries, much better than the usual chocolate cake on offer. But the crushed pistachios, blackcurrant marshmallow, sea-buckthorn ice-cream, rhubarb, and vanilla sauce, I loved even more.

We had an excellent dinner at this restaurant! At first they send us a small appetizer for free which was very delicious. We also enjoyed our first and main course. Just be aware that the prices are higher than average and the size of the main course were not big. We were full after dinner but only because we had a first course before.

Brunch on Sundays. I left with a feeling that there is no clear vision as to what style of food should be served. There were spicy chicken wings and deep fried onion rings alongside quiche and quinoa salad. I get that you might want to please a wider audience, but many will be left confused. My omelette made by the chef was tasteless, octopus was chewy, ravioli were hard. I would think twice before going there again.

Tiger prawn and sea scallop broth with mussels, shitake mushrooms, green peas and onions was absolutely beatiful dish! Propably the best soup ever I've tasted! Also chocolade fondant was delicious...

Worth visiting and a very good value for money. One of the best places to eat in Riga. Do note that some waiters however may be slow.

I recommend this restaurant to everyone. I was here for lunch. I chose from the business lunch menu and paid for 8 € (main meal + dessert). The service was amazing and the restaurant was at a very high level overall. I'm sure to visit this restaurant again when I'm in Riga.

Excellent 3 courses business lunch, both in quality and service. 3 alternatives (1 vegetarian) for starters and main courses, 2 for the dessert. High quality/ price ratio.

We had a late lunch here. Coffee good but not very hot. Popular with students and younger crowd. Salmon/cream cheese bagel beautifully light, soft and full of flavour, thanks

Horrible industrial cappuccino full of foam and burnt coffee beans that they serve in a cardboard cup full of pride propaganda. Seating isn't very comfortable either and the staff look like they'd prefer to be somewhere else. These are all students who are not trained and are just there to kill time. The cappuccino was a fair price at €3.10, but I'd rather pay €5 and be able to recognise what it was. How are the coffee standards so brutally bad in Latvia. Avoid this place like the plague.

I remember Caffeine cafés as a very nice places. That still holds true largely. This visit however wasn't that pleasant. The service wasn't too nice in my opinion. Also, the coffee wasn't that good. I ordered flat white. Given the price (3.10€), this could have had at least some late-art. I got it in a paper cup, although I wanted to stay, sit and enjoy. They didn't ask. My overall feeling was as if they wanted to spend as little time on me as possible. But hey, it's still coffee. It wasn't so bad, just the overall experience was mediocre. The interior is very nice and centrally located.

Truly unforgettable. If you’ve ever wondered what a cold, dry, unbaked panini tastes like, this is your chance. Why bother using a grill when you can just slap some sad ingredients between two slices of bread and call it a day? Tables weren’t cleaned after previous guests, but hey — nothing sets the mood like someone else’s crumbs. As for the staff, they were easy to find… just look for the cloud of smoke outside.

Spacious cafe with comfortable seats, decent selection of food and drinks. Located near Riga Bus Station with nice facilities like free wifi, water to drink and a toilet, so it's perfect to chill here, take a few calls and get some work done 😚 Friendly staff too!

Several cool coffee options! Tasted popcorn ice latte, want to taste Cinnamon bun latte next time :) Tasty pastry

Caffeine, a popular coffee shop in Old Town Riga, is known for its vibrant yet cozy ambiance with sky-blue walls and comfortable leather seating. It’s a favorite among both locals and visitors, attracting a lively mix of young people who often come to enjoy its strong Wi-Fi and comfortable atmosphere, ideal for working on laptops or unwinding with friends. This spot serves a variety of drinks, with coffee as the star of the menu, consistently praised for its quality and flavor. However, the service can sometimes be on the slower side, which may not be ideal if you're in a hurry. The food offerings include light snacks such as quiche, sandwiches, and baked treats, though reviews suggest the flavors and portions might feel fairly standard. It's a great place to grab a coffee and relax, but if you're looking for a quick or especially memorable meal, there are other nearby options as well. Nevertheless, Caffeine’s relaxed vibe, free Wi-Fi, and prime location make it a convenient stop during a stroll through Riga’s historic center

Enjoyed the Latvian wine tasting. 5 fruit wines 14 euros. Lots if information from staff. Great addition to our yrip

This shop has an excellent range of Latvian handicrafts including clothing, foods and souvenirs. At the back is a small café with 4 tables where we enjoyed an excellent coffee and snack.

Looking for authentic, locally sourced, and Latvian-designed products for loved ones? This is that unique store you are looking for! Unlike all the generic souvenir stores around the old town, this place is special in many ways: the quality and variety of products; the intent in designing the ambience and feel of the space itself; and of course the excellent customer service the two ladies exhibited when they helped me. Highly recommended if you are visiting Old Town Riga! Enjoy!

We felt more than welcome here. The wine tasting was the highlight of our day. The atmosphere and customer service earn this place a 5/5!

Fantastic store with lovely people working in it You can find here handmade 100% wool sweaters/ dresses and 100% linen blouses/shirts/dresses - all of them modern looking and well fitting. On top of that 100% woolen blankets/socks, creative ceramics, paper products, organic products, local products and many more. Make sure to step inside if you are seeking natural and beautiful products or more conscious souvenirs and want to support small businesses! Bonus: this place has a lovely hidden cafe inside serving coffee and cakes. Clean toilet accessible from a ground level, large mirrors, card payment, vegan options.

This shop has slot of hands maid crafts, clothes and traditional furniture house and also kitchen ceramics set, And the best delicious herbs tea, you should not miss it and must try it on very quite nice sofa set will never forget it.

Delicious cookie, excellent cappuccino, confortable and cozy place to relax and check out cute crafts, so much better than the other souvenir shops around 🤩

Stumbled upon this cafe early morning, had been in once and had a latte to take out which had been lovely, smooth and not too strong. Had a second visit the following day and decided to stay in, had a large latte again, once again smooth and nice. Had some music playing in the background not too loud or quiet. Had some people in and they had left. Nice environment, very casual. Barista had spoken English which helps. Coffee between €1.90-€4.10 but goes to €4.90.

Since theres a construction infront of the caffeine the place is like sanctuary. When i arrived there, there was only two people: bartender and one customer. I ordered salted caramel macchiato and sat down. The coffee was amazingly made by the bartender like 10/10 never had better caramel macchiato. I stayed there for 1 hour and by the time only 3 locals came by so it was really nice that it was quiet all the time Definitely worth to visit just dont get crowded here to not destroy the quietness of this place 😉

Offensively slow and understaffed. Slowness is accepted at cafe where the intention is to enjoy there or the drink is of extraordinary quality. Here it is neither. For a cafe with a to-go format, speed is paramount. Unpleasant lighting. Good location maybe

Many choices for hot and iced coffees. Frappes also available and specials. Few choices of sweet and savory items. From savory they offer stuffed croissants and quiches and on sweet side there are few cakes, pastries and cookies. Would have expected more choices. Coffee was good but they oversugared it. Muffin was dry but croissant tasty. It is super busy in there but atmosphere quite cozy. Servers should know English better as one if them did not understand what was ordered, it is central location and people working there should know basics. Overall good for coffee and quick bite.

The humidty is too high so there is a heavy smell. The floor need to be changed. Service is good.

It’s a cozy place with great coffee and relaxing vibes. The barista was helpful and patient with me being in two minds of which coffee I want. Marzipan-chocolate muffin is a must by the way. The restroom could be cleaner though

The coffee is great. I think the coffee art is pretty too. They are enough space to find a nice seat. The decoration is quite cozy took. My favorite is the carrot cake, it’s very tasty! Everything were better than Starbuck. Now it’s my favorite place to get my coffee especially during cold days.

Even though the food was alright(average) and the place is almost clean, the service was terrible! The cashier has been very rude to us, and it made our visit way worse. Rolling her eyes and talking back was very impolite of her and I hope the administration does something to change that.

The coffee price is insanely high! 4.80€ for a cappuccino, and it tasted awful. What a disappointment.

Nice little cafe. Our first stop at Riga. Nice enough little cafe. Affordable prices. Great variety of cakes and coffees.

Good bakery, nice desserts. However, coffee is definitely overpriced. Recommend taking out. Summer terrace is delightful.

Great little place for a break from walking

Nice & cozy place! Really good coffee for small price, especially after paying almost 3 euros for horrible coffee in the airport. Variety of pastries, that are also cheap (many less than euro)!

Not very clean place.

Eggs like mom makes them fluffy and cheesy served with a buttery croissant and fresh greens its a real cozy café that takes its pastries seriously yummy and crunchy freshly baked 1 million% recommended

Very nice and cute place. The atmosphere and decorations are amazing even the exterior. Deserts are delicious. Coffee was a little bit rough for me but it had a nice heart shape milk-froth decor😊 quite and nice place, definitely recommend it.

The cakes all looked fantastic, and the ones we tried were absolutely outstanding — as was the coffee. Unfortunately, the music was dreadful and really took away from the otherwise great experience.

I found the potato pancakes generally average, so was disappointed after reading that reviews. Fresh OJ tasted mediocre, so perhaps was squeezed a few days prior or mixed with water. Service was friendly.

Always the best healthy breakfast in Riga! Omelette with salad is the best (you can ask not to include the sausage and croissant for the most healthy option. Same kind of breakfast that you’d expect to see in anywhere in the USA :) Strangely this is the only place in Riga that’s this good And the prices are so great! I can eat here with my wife for half the price we pay at other places in Riga for breakfast

Cappuccino not bad at all but Chocolate tartalette was a little bit strange - too hard. Maybe at the end of the day but also strange service and no atmosphere.

Pleasantly surprised! We stopped by while exploring the area and found a great selection of delicious pastries and desserts, all at affordable prices. The interior of the cafe isn't that fancy, but it's cozy and inviting.

Went in hoping it would at least be above average. 'Austiņa' was disgusting, felt like it was undercooked and just left to sit there for 3 days. You can get better pastries in Lidl for a fraction of the price.

Alīna today was so rude and unpleasant. Food is dry, no sauces available and too expensive. I'm not coming back. No one smiles or is kind

I have ordered before via Wolt sausages, pelbmeni, soups, fresh meat, this time I tried some of their marinate meats, really tasty, fresh, not salty like all other stores are marinating, these marinates are high quality on fresh meat, of course, price is higher than standard but it's worth. I recommend.

It’s unbelievably delicious here. Probably the best place for foodies in Riga. It’s far from where I live, in a very center, but it definitely worth driving. It’s a high end buffet with a huge variety of food. Soups, salads, appetizers, meat, fish, deserts, berry drinks and much more. You also can get bread and pastries here.

Fantastic almond croissants, best on the planet, but staff could improve on customer service

Great and fresh food. Pricey for lunch. Usually queues and you will wait some time. Parking next is usually full.

I’d been wanting to come here for the whole time I’ve been in Latvia. I pass it on the bus and the window displays are awesome. The Christmas window was so impressive, so I’ve always been intrigued by it. Today I went for coffee and cake and wasn’t disappointed. What an amazing delicatessen it is. The cakes are out of this world with an amazing array of colours and mirror glaze work. This place really has the WOW factor and needs to be visited. I’m a vegetarian, but I did pop my head into the butcher’s section for my husband and he would be very happy to visit here. The breads look fabulous too. My cake was so stunning, but very rich to manage the whole lot, but I gave it a good go, it’s delicious! Definitely worth 5 stars.

Awesome cafe with breakfast and lunch options (small sandwiches and cakes). We were here on a rainy day. The price was low and the staff behaved very friendly. The cakes and coffees were delicious, and you could add syrups. This is not wheelchair accessible.

Neat selection for breakfasts. Good value for money in the area. Patient waitress with perfect English 👌

The best place for a quick and nice breakfast. I love sitting in front of the window with a sandwich and caramel hot chocolate❤️ Don't forget your ISIC for a discount!

Staff ok. Cafe with milk not good Taste was warm water with milk. Toilet not was clean,miss hand gel.

Best place to have coffee and croissant. Have variety of bakery items and cakes.nice cosy seating arrangements.

The staff is quite friendly. I really like the sandwiches. The French croissant was too sweet and not soft in the center or flaky outside.

Price vs quality More than excellent. Perfect place for Snack between meals

Very tasty pastries and coffee. Cheap prices, nice and cosy place.

Service is amazing! Good WiFi and have some spare electric outlets for nomads.

Came for the first time and the pastries were absolutely delicious, also the lady who served me was very polite and friendly. Highly recommended 💯

super delicious and cheap breakfast there. i really enjoyed the stay and the atmosphere.

With its retro interior details, the place has a very homely feel, it's almost like visiting a dear aunt or granny. Bred rolls, cakes, biscuits, and bread come fresh from the bakery .

Delicious pastries and coffee. Friendly staff, which is unusual around here. Kids friendly.

Nice family place, since lots of kids

The bagels here are freshly made, chewy and so satisfying! Great to have so many vegan options. However, on our second visit they gave us regular cream cheese instead of vegan cream cheese so just be super careful when placing your order. Would have been 5 stars if it wasn't for this mistake. We took it back to our accommodation to eat so it was too late to let them know.

Absolutely amazing selection of bagels. Highly recommend you try this place. Lots of vegan and vegetarian options to! Reasonable prices. My favorite was the Vegetarian in Barbados!! It is quite crowded in the mornings, took my order to go and ate at the hotel.

This is a small sandwich shop serving everything on a bagel. The food is great and reasonably priced. There isn't a lot of seating so it can get crowded during peak times but it's definitely worth it. I had the BLT and it was delicious. And they were kind enough to hold the mustard and cheese, which came standard.

This little bagel place is amazing. The place itself is really cool - check the ceiling out. The coffee is excellent, the bagel options are excellent and the staff are amazing. We had our first and final Riga meal here and there are no regrets!

Big but actually good bagels! Very good location, friendly stuff and atmosphere, very fair prices. If you are in Riga this might be a great place to start your day with breakfast or brunch. Totally recommend!

Went here 2 times. Both times were great. The bagels are made fresh in the back, all the ingredients taste nice. Reasonable prices. Their cofee was quite good as well. Recommend for a brunch.

The Bagels were so good and heavy. Coffee was very good as well. Best place for breakfast in Riga! But sometimes it’s quit busy and you have to wait up to 20min.

We ordered cake for baby gender reveal party and asked if possible to do it for tomorrow and they did it. And taste, decoration, cream everything was fantastic 😍 Number one cake in Riga denifitely👍👍 Highly recommend

Awesome place with nice fresh food, delicious desserts and baked goods. Everything is clean, there is good strong WiFi, it's a nice place to have a lunch or a dinner with your friends or family. Price is also very good, it is medium (not too high, not too low) for excellent quality and service.

Amazing little coffee shop with delicious cakes and food. High recommended for a quick coffee or lunch with a friend. Could be busy on week day during lunch hour.

Everyone keeps asking where I bought them the pastry I bring over. Tasty stuff

Small place that is perfect for lunch and baked stuff. Take away is possible. I highly recommend the CreamSoups there.

Perfekt place for a breakfast and mire authentic than in the centre. Cheap and very good!

Nice family owned cafe. Magnificent cakes and deliciuos lunch offer.

What a lovely breakfast we had there! Very cozy atmosphere with books, nice coffee and excellent breakfast options.

Excellent and friendly service, we had three things and all were absolutely beautiful to eat and to look at... Nice location and ambience and a lovely bookstore across the hall...the pistachio cream puff was exceptional in a global sense

If you are in Riga and seeking a delightful breakfast, brunch, or a quality cup of coffee, I highly recommend Zvaigzne CAFE. The culinary offerings are exceptional, the service is among the finest in Riga, and the ambiance is cozy and inviting. Additionally, you can enjoy a good book while savoring your meal.

Very friendly and cozy. Had a matcha, not sure if it s good since it my second match but was a nice little pit stop

By far this is the greatest café I have ever had the joy of being in. Everything is truly great and at a reasonable price. Usually breakfast is available from 8-11am and its divine (try the porridge you won't be disappointed) and lunch each day from 12pm. Breakfast menu doesn't change but each day there are different deserts and a lunch menu. The staff is incredibly friendly. The atmosphere is cute and not pretentious in any way. Though above all I must commend their standards, I've been going there daily for months now and not once have I been disappointed by anything. In my humble opinion this is a must visit in Riga. :))

Lovely café with good coffee and nice snacks. We had a very friendly service and a good time there

Me and my wife went there for breakfast on my birthday after a recommendation from our relatives and it really was a place to start a birthday well. Food was delicious and portions were good size and variety too. The buratta dish was extensive as these things tend to be, but the rest was great! Even the price for freshly squeezed orange juice was friendly. we recommend it 5/5

Fair 4.3 Place has a good type of coffee and nice warriaty of sweet waffles. However, I was a bit disappointed with the size of sour waffles itself, 3 pieces seemed to be a small portion compared with sweet waffle size. Also I would like to see an option for a waffle with the "kick". Add some siraccha source and a bit of lime's zest in the dipping along with salmon, and we have a really nice option to try. Don't stop improving sour waffles 🧇

Absolutely loved Pipa Wafels! The waffles are super fresh — crispy on the outside, soft and warm inside, and beautifully presented. You can really taste the quality ingredients. The coffee is excellent too — rich, smooth, and perfectly made. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, with a modern touch that makes it a great spot to relax or catch up with friends. The staff are friendly and clearly care about what they do. Definitely one of my new favorite places in Riga for a sweet treat and good coffee! ☕🧇

Really lovely atmosphere of the café, cute, bright, inviting, and cozy. Fair prices for a unique and fun breakfast (11 euros for a cappuccino and salty waffles). Savory waffles were tasty and can’t wait to try their sweet ones another time. I recommend!

My favourite waffle spot in Riga! They serve just waffles and drinks, but you need nothing more than that. The Belgium waffles with salted caramel are the ones to die for... My guiltiest and tastiest pleasure on weekly basis 😅. The cheese waffles (if you haven't tried it yet) are something you will never forget... This place is a foodie hidden gem! I love them from the very beginning 4-5 years ago and I think I will love them forever 😍

Atmosphere is amazing, service is amazing, food is amazing. Overall this place is a must-go when you’re in Riga. Don’t miss out on their matcha as well it’s hand whisked with good quality powder. I got the honey cinnamon matcha which was divine (so tasty that I went back for the next 2 mornings to order it again). I’ve since left Riga and miss this place dearly.

What an amazing find here in Latvia. Quaint little Waffle restaurant serving of probably the most delicious waffles I've ever had. It's a must go to when you're in Latvia.

We craved for a sweet bite and this place delivered! Really good waffles with delicious options to top it off. Also enjoyed their drinks. Clean, fresh and modern interior

Quiet and spacious cafe with a more or less nice menu and different food options. We were not very lucky with the cakes that time, since it seemed they never bake them at the place but just buy some factory ones, so we decided to have a salad, which was delicious and fresh (so fresh, that I also found a cute little spider in a bowl, haha, but I did not care much about it being there). Bonus star for the coffee which was of a good quality. Surely I would not sit in again but I think I might pick up some take away coffee from there one day.

Very tasty cappuccino. Please next time prepare milk separately for each cappuccino. There were missing foam for second one.

Food ok, no doubts not super not bad. Servis - rude and not shy. If you eant to ruine your nice breakfest with kid or friend - that is write place. If you really hungry and it us last chance to eat, filling yourself ok with rude service- welcome)

Visited twice. Both times the service was beyond terrible. For a mediocre meal, there are better places to check out in town.

Nothing to complain , nice service and above average meals it was insane

Very good service, went there with a large group and they were very accommodating. The coffee ( trusted Illy) and food were both great. They had lots of different breakfast options, from pastries to traditional curd cheese pancakes.

During our 2 week stay in Riga, this was breakfast most mornings. Huge menu options, great coffee, great service. One morning we tried another place, the ndxt morning we were bacm. A good choice.

Very tasty roasted coffee beans from many countries and farms. You can also have a cup of coffee to taste in place with a delicious kind of desserts

Very cosy place :) I'd recommend to order sweet roll - it's amazing. Coffee also good.

Staff barely knows how to say 'hello', 'thank you', and 'youre welcome'. The young man just stared into their smartphone during most of our interaction.. Coffee is okay, but not great.

Sad to say but black coffee is terrible

Great coffee house. They sell high quality roasted coffee beans from around the globe. Highly recommended! A+++

Very charming place outside the city centre. Nice service, tasty coffee and delicious little cookies. Highly recommend.

I ordered a coffee machine from you on 15th June. You have not shipped this out yet even though you stated I would have it in 3-5 days. Can you please refund my money asap

Nice cafe, cozy atmosphare, tasty bakery products . I wish seller would be more motivated to take orders :)

Lovely place, nice personal. Great "VecRiga" cake with cappuccino. Definitely will come here again when visiting Latvia.

Are you looking for morning coffee and some nice, freshly baked sweetness? Or quick pizzalike food? Just a perfect morning start could be at this place when city is still sleeping and lazy, you sit there at the side of one of the busiest streets in Riga, but the street is just having a day off, because its saturday morning. People passing by, but there is no rush in their faces. You sit there and enjoy your first sips of coffee and start a day with a bite of one of their tasty cakes. It feels like a perfect combination for urban environment. And even if you are short on money, here you can get something with 50% off. Yes, that stuff is from yesterday. But yesterday was just few hours ago and everything feels fresh anyway. All together what is displayed on my table cost me just 3 something euro. And tasted amazing.

Tasty buns, reasonable price for the size of buns.

A place that looks very fancy and cozy from the outside. Actually very aesthetic, so my friends and I wanted to give it a try and visited. The first weird thing happened before we even entered this place: The door was locked. Shortly after that, it was opened by a very angry and unmotivated woman (who was obviously employed there). We took our orders, and that process of us taking our orders made this very employee even angrier, even though we were friendly and uncomplicated towards her. Our order consisted of two eclaires two hot chocolates and - as far as I remember - a coffee. I can not complain about the fact that we did receive them very quickly. We sat down about a minute after our order, in a very comfortable corner. Then we, of course, had to try the ordered products. The eclaires were drier than the Sahara desert, filled by a fairly weird cream that at least did taste good. One of my friends was especially shocked, being a skilled baker herself. The hot chocolate was okay, I would give it 3.6 stars, not the best, but not very bad either. However, we did not stay in there for very long due to the angry employee who gave the entire place a very unpleasant atmosphere. Luckily, the door was not locked when we got out, so the need of having one more potential interaction with this person was abolished. In short: If the staff was in a better mood, it would be an absolutely enjoyable place, despite the dry eclaires!

It's small bakery and baked goods shop, very cosy. Prices are very reasonable and the products are freshly baked in the same shop.

Good coffee, best Vecriga cakes. Nice looking pastry worth to taste
