Cafe Aviva in New York

"Such a lovely experience coming here. The staff was exceptionally sweet moving around tables and chairs to make me and my father comfortable. We got a latte and americano and was some of the best coffee either of us have had. It’s also a very cute little place to sit and relax for a bit."

"A lovely new café on Roosevelt Island. The space is small but cozy, and I felt very comfortable during my visit. I went on a hot day, and the hazelnut affogato coffee was absolutely delicious. The café is also very friendly toward families with children."

"Great place, so clean and neat, staff almost knows already what each customer drinks and great them as they open the door. Very welcoming and happy we have it in the neighborhood"

"Roosevelt Island finally has a cafe option that’s better than the Starbucks! Superb baked goods, quality coffee, and friendly service. But above all: a beautiful space. Small but so well decorated and pleasant to be in. Only thing missing is a better view, but still plenty of light through floor to ceiling windows that face out on the cement or Main Street."

"The owner is super sweet and cares SO much about providing the best experience possible. He even makes his own non-dairy nut milk in-house!! Every item is made with love and ingredients are super fresh. this is just such a charming little cafe. Highly recommend (:"

"Seriously a secret gem! They have the best croissants in all of New York City, I promise. You couldn’t get a more perfect croissant even in France, they would be envious — they import supplies from France. The coffee is genuine Italian roast. Quality over quantity, a true Chef at work .. and it reflects! The owner and staff are honest, genuine, and passionate people — such a lovely experience. Not to mention all the other pastries, true flavor!! Enjoy."

"The sweetest little coffee shop. Wonderful homemade pastries, really good coffee, and the most welcoming owner and staff. It feels warm, cozy, and full of care. A place that instantly makes your day better."

"There’s finally a great coffee spot on the island, and I couldn’t be more grateful! The coffee hit all the right notes, and the pastries were just as delicious. The interior is warm and cozy, and the staff are respectful and genuinely kind. I definitely will be back!"
