A consistently exceptional food experience at The River Kitchen. Maria & her team create delicious treats like the boiled eggs & toast soldiers with personality. The scones are excellent and the coffee is always hot & strong. Love the golden book menu story about the flavours of the Mighty Waikato region too. A definite Hamilton ‘must do’ for breakfast, brunch, lunch or catering too.

Awesome service from Liam! One of the best wait staff we've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Super friendly, efficient and always ensuring everything was perfect. 10/10 would come back just thanks to Liam's amazing service. Thanks again!
Great choice of locally sourced food and can cater for any dietary requirements. Plus fast friendly service.
Decided to drop in Saturday morning for breakfast with my daughter . The service started well offering to find me a table and asked me to wait while it was cleaned. Then once the table was clean, I was left waiting while two other customers that were sat outside were invited to sit inside. I went and sat at the next table and waited to be served. No one approached with water or to take an order and after some time I decided to have a take away coffee instead, that way I might actually get served. To be honest it looked like most of the customers were waiting quite a while on food orders. I placed an order at the counter for a coffee and cake to take away. The guy serving seemed to struggle with taking a basic order and working the tablet but got there in the end. Coffee was served as a small instead of large that was requested but by then I just wanted to get going and so let it fly. Got home and the cakes were so dry, clearly been in the cabinet too long. I am surprised by this poor service considering the good reviews the cafe has but I wont be returning.
I had the big breakfast the tomato chutney was very tart and the sour dough toast was so small it was the same size as the egg circumference my sausage was cut in half tomatoes were a bit burnt so that taste took over the tomato flavour, eggs were cooked perfectly. Coffee is great service was great. FYI...I cut the egg before taking this pic
Had a cappuccino, had an interesting flavor and I couldn't quite tell what it was but it felt like it was dancing on my tongue. Quite strong. The Hotcakes were amazing and I couldn't get enough. My partner and I are definitely coming here again.
Food is tasty, fresh and quality. The Zealong Tea is well known in town. The service is brilliant as they always have a big smile on their caring faces. The cafe’s ambience is warmly welcomed My recommendation is try to pair green tea or any tea with a scone you like before or after the meal. You might fall in love ️
Dropped in for lunch while passing through. Excellent service and the meal was fantastic. Well worth it. We went looking for The River Kitchen and had a very nice experience. Excellent service and food Would highly recommend. Little points on the service to improve such as additional water with the long black etc, spoon arriving with the porridge. thanks
