Reviews of Pondfield Cafe
The food was really good It was freshly cooked and it tasted freshly cooked. This diner gives you the feel that you are getting a home cook meal. The waitress and all the staff they working there were very nice. The wait for the food was not very long considering I think they make everything on the spot. As you wait someone comes around and tops your coffee off quite frequently so it allows for more enjoyable experience.
I ordered their blueberry pancakes with a scrambled eggs and cheese. The blueberry pancakes were not sweet even with the syrup. But their eggs tasted delicious. And the service was nice. It’s a quaint little spot and isn’t too hard to find with street meter parking.
Went to this cute little cafe for breakfast with my uncle. Expect a wait but service and food were great and priced reasonably. I had a chorizo hash with eggs and it reminded of fresh (not canned) corn beef hash. If forgot what egg dish my uncle had but he loved it and we shared the oat panacakes with peaches which were really good. Will definitely go back.
The food was absolutely amazing. Maureen, was the absolute best waitress will definitely Com back when I’m in NY
INCREDIBLE food. Ask for their specials, dishes are delightful. My son loved their Mickey Mouse shaped hot cakes
Old school breakfast diner with home style dishes and 1950's prices. Neighborhood favorite not to be missed if your in the area.
We were party of five, waited maybe 15 mins, seated separately for few minutes until we got a bigger table! The stuff were so accommodating! The waitress was so nice! We got the food really quickly and it was so delicious! This is amazing place and I am sure will be here more often when visiting daughter in college!
This place is always busy bc they have amazing food! Offers daily breakfast specials. It's very hard to get in on the weekends. Shoot for weekdays, even though still crowded due to their small space.
Excellent service, and delicious, well-prepared food. The server Mori makes it feel just like home. My partner and I are regulars at this establishment and see no reason to change this behavior.
Small, busy and the most delicious bfast. Friendly fast service and great coffee. I loved the coconut whole wheat pancakes with warm peaches! Yummm!
Gem of a place, not easy to find but worth the effort. One of the best omelettes I’ve had in a long time, great service, reasonably available parking nearby. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!
Well kept secret... Is it supposed to be?
This place is great.
Wait time was around 10 minutes.
Service was fast and correct.
Order to table time was like... 10 minutes.
We ate for about 25 minutes. We were on the road that day, couldn't stay long.
In and out within an hour.
Fast paced. You shouldn't sit there for too long. Not large space, so not very many seats.
Everything was organized and clean.
Great Ambient and flow.
Food & the staff are great at this local eatery! Their "Fuego" sandwich is delicious with some heat and chipotle creaminess. The omelettes are fluffy and their potatoes are delicious. The pancakes and french toast are so good! At times pancakes & french toast are flamed just right with a sweet, delicious char! Great spot!
Very good food, very unique home fries. Service can vary and patrons seem to hang out forever even when customers are waiting. Small quant busy little place
Small cafe/eatery- always busy but well worth the wait. Breakfast is my favorite but they also have amazing lunch options. Staff is very friendly. Note- this is a cash-only establishment so come prepared.
This lovely cafe is open late on Thursdays for dinner. I have the meatloaf with mash and carrots. My girlfriend had the chicken, also with mash and carrots. Totally filling, and totally awesome. I love the atmosphere here. Good people and good food. Can't ask for anything more than that.
Great breakfasts some with a Latino twist. Excellent lunch dishes and the Thursday dinner is a must try if you are local
The waitress and owners were really nice . My food was really bland and unseasoned. The coffee was good.
Our favorite cafe for Sunday brunch. Every thing is excellent. 20 min wait is expected but worth it! Excellent, simply excellent!
Loved their carnitas breakfast bowl and staff were friendly and attentive
A small place, great food, worth going back. Note, cash only!
Small, cash only, but what a vibe.....staff is so nice and food is amazing
This place is amazing. From the staff to the food! Definitely a must try.
Great food at an affordable price. A bit of a long wait so come prepared but well worth it though.
Cute little breakfast/brunch spot in a quiet area with easy parking. Didn’t even know this little gem existed so close to home. The portion sizes are good and the food is excellent. Many different choices for kids and adults. We will look forward to enjoying the pancakes and eggs!
Great local, inexpensive breakfast spot. The restaurant is not very large so on weekends, you're pretty much guaranteed to wait. The staff is great and they always have something unusual and tasty on the specials.
This café has a wonderful local ambiance, and great food.
Epic!! This place is freaking awesome. Very small, and they only accept cash. That might didn’t know some people but for the quality of food and the small town local atmosphere, I know I’ll be back.
I've been coming to the Pondfield Cafe going on 20 years at least, traveling by the 26 bus or the Metro North choo-choo from The Bronx, even for take-out during Covid, such is my dedication to the place.
I tell people who are waiting for a table when it's crowded and counter seating is available that the food is better at the counter. Why? Because you can watch them prepare your order!
Great service. Great food. Absolute hidden gem. Can’t believe it took me 2 years to find this place! Amazing.
First the food is great. I have eaten here a few times and they've never missed a beat! But what brings me back is Maureen. She is the corner stone of this great establishment. She remembers you and your name. She always is up beat full of life and man can she move. The speed at which she moves challenges any top runner.
Her warm caring nature is the life of this eatery. Thank you Maureen ♥️!
This place is small but the food was so good!
My husband and I came here a few days ago and I would’ve never imagined how great the food and the service is. Definitely recommend it to anyone in town! I’ll definitely be coming back! Thank you!
Great food! A bit more than an hour wait on a Sunday late morning, but worth the wait. The pancakes with fresh blueberries were delicious, as was the eggs, sausage, and bacon. And the coffee was great! Attentive servers, would definitely go back.
Amazing breakfast. I just moved into the neighborhood and my girlfriend and I went for the first time. We each had a breakfast burrito and it was amazing and HUGE! They come with 3 eggs each and your choice of bacon, ham, or sausage. We got a side of corned beef hash and that was delicious too. Sue and Maureen are super friendly! There isn't much seating, since it is small, so you might have to wait a few minutes for a table. The prices are fair although it is cash only. Thursday nights is BYOB dinner specials. Can't wait to try that out.
Parking is on the streets. Sunday it's free, but we found a spot fast and close. If you don't like tiny places this isn't for you. Even sitting next to my boyfriend at the counter it felt crowded. Everything looked clean from the dining part to the kitchen. All the dishes I saw looked amazing. It looked like only 1 waitress on for the whole place so we waited about 5 minutes till she could take our order. The staff was very vibrant and working very hard. Love the home fries. They're like soft potatoe slides. Good was good.
The staff is super friendly and the food is so very good. This is what I want when visiting friends and family, unpretentious food that's filling and cooked with love. I had the French toast special with two eggs, two strip of turkey bacon and a turkey sausage patty. Hubby had the pancake special with two eggs, two strips of pork bacon and a pork sausage patty.
Great breakfast really good fresh fruit on delicious French toast!!!
One of the best spots in Westchester for breakfast. Wonderful staff, from the hostess to the cooks. Food is always good, fresh and plentiful -- don't miss the specials, they're awesome. Always full, usually with the same people who come back every weekend (and I assume weekdays too -- though we've only been on the weekends). Highly recommend.
This is my favorite breakfast spot in Westchester. The Huevos Rancheros are the best here!! The staff is very pleasant. The service is fast. The cafe is small and, usually pretty busy. There is a wait here most anytime I've been here with that said the food is worth the wait. I always enjoy having breakfast here with a good friend.
Quaint little place, crowded and loud on a Saturday morning. Had to sit at the counter because the wait for a table would've been at least a half hour. (Don't sit here if you're taller than 5' 2" though; your knees will be pressed against the counter wall!) Food was good and served quickly. Lastly, don't bring your credit or debit card, they only accept cash.
Amazing service and food! From Yonkers boy living in Atlanta. Thank you to my home town!😊👍 …
From my daughter: "My dad and I went to this place. I had a wrap, and Daddy had the two pancake special. When I took my first bite, I was amazed by the food. It was delicious!" From me: great food and service, even with a packed house on a Tuesday morning, and the guy actually made the bacon crispy, a concept which no one else seems to understand! Will absolutely be back.
Food was a little pricey but it was fast service, great waitress and perfect taste.
Their lamb burger are to die for. If you are lucky enough to be ther on the day they have, try them. Outstanding. On Thursday evening try their short ribs or rack of lamb, sooooooo good. For lunch there are great omelettes, my favourite is Turkey Chili Omelette or just TurkeyChili. Just the right amount of spice to make to take notice. Pancakes with blueberries, forget about it. You have died and gone to heaven. All in all, don’t miss the Pondfield Cafe.
One of the best breakfasts/brunches I have had eating out. Definitely going to keep eating here with my friends until we are tired of it. And then we will still keep going here! Keep in mind, accepts cash only.
They have the best blueberry pancakes. They add fresh berries to the batter after it is poured onto the griddle. It is ALWAYS busy.
This family operated Cafe is great for sat or sun brunch. Parties greater than 4 be ready to wait, there are only 2 tables to accommodate you. The food comes fast & hot. Staff always has a smile. I recommend coming before 1pm on wknds or you won't get a table.
The question has now been answered. Why the line inside in a spot you could easily drive by or walk by and not even notice. And, why so few photos available as well. The answer to both is easy "the Food". My wife and I both ordered the special which I hope is always available because when placed in front of me I immediately started eating totally forgetting that I wanted to take a photo.
Pondfield Cafe is a must stop if you are in the area. Delicious food, daily specials and wonderful staff that always put a smile on your face! I suggest anything on the special menu - never disappoints, neither will the service from Maureen!!
I love coming here because the head waitress is so friendly and the breakfast is on point. Homefries are hands down my favorite, followed by the corn muffins and banana cream oatmeal for the little one.
The food is outstanding! I am a creature of habit and almost always order 1 or 2 scrambled eggs (moist & fluffy!), bacon well done (crispy & tasty!) and potatoes (flavorless & just okay). (I wish they had hash browns.) I love that I can get a side of sliced avocado when I'm in the mood for it, and it's always perfectly ripe.
I don't drink coffee but my friend says it's typical diner coffee. The staff is busy but attentive and friendly.
EXCELLENT! Great breakfast spot! Very good menu and fast, pleasant service. Will definitely be back here.
Great little place! Tiny, so be prepared for a wait if you come during a busy time like brunch, and cash only. But worth it! Excellent breakfast and really nice service.
It's a good little dinner for the neighborhood, but I wouldn't say the food is particularly good, there are pictures on the wall of the area which is nice otherwise the decorations are ok at best, and the service is good but not great. My coffee went empty for half the meal. But it's inexpensive and does the trick. CASH ONLY.
This is a hidden treasure in the corner of the Yonkers. Polite, good food. Great for breakfast or lunch. It is cozy, warm and filled with neighborhood people. It is basically the last cafe in Yonkers that borders Bronxville just before the Bronx River Parkway on Pondfield Road. It always smells great and that is from the cooking. They even have great deserts and good coffee. I take my mom there because the dentist is right across the street. The Pondfield cafe is worth a visit. See you there soon!!
Omg amazing!!!
Even though we came relatively early, the place was packed. We put our name on the waiting list and only waited twenty minutes to be seated. We remembered from our previous visit to walk with cash since they do not accept credit or debit cards at the establishment. I don't have any qualms with this place and I'm sure we will be back again
I've been a semi regular here for a few years now so it's only appropriate that I give them the praise they deserve for providing hands down the best breakfast you can get in bronxville (I've never been for the Thursday dinner but I hear it's equally awesome.) Everything I've had on the menu I've enjoyed, but mostly I get one of their omelettes because they're huge and guaranteed to fill you up.
The best breakfast place. Everything is delicious. Service is amazing. Coffee perfect. Love their scallop potatoes. Just hard to find parking and always packed.
Such a great place to eat. Always fresh and delicious! The staff is wonderful.
Great flavorful Breakfast. Sure it is usually busy, but the small wait time is worth it. Susan and the team are wonderful and the food is delicious Every single time!
Weekend Mexican breakfast specials are always amazing!
Nice breakfast, cash only
The Pondfield Home fries are legendary so a nice Bronx cheer to the potato haters. The specials are superb. (Popeye BF special!) One of the best short order cooks on the planet and the staff is always on no matter how busy. Try the tomatillo sauce, the Egg Salad Sammy, Eggs in a Nest, bacon, Pancakes. Dinner hours on Thursday. My only complaint is that this place is not closer to my kitchen.
Absolutely delicious! You can tell this place is well loved - for the food and the people.
Family style, great traditional food, friendliest of service, mixes all types of people and that's fun and nice to meet others, great ambiance. Would love to see the introduction of more organic food as well.
A good morning indeed! Excellent local spot for a quick breakfast n cup of joe! Sit at the breakfast bar, meet a friend or chat with the friendly staff. I gave them 4 stars bc they're cash only but other than that, they're right on the money!
Cute place for breakfast. Not sure about the potatoes they call hash browns they are just flat french fries. Kinda weird but ok. Waitstaff super friendly.
Decent location for a coffee and breakfast 😋
Omg AMAZING!!! Worth every penny! The banana nut pancakes are killer. I drove from the Bronx for this and I will be back. Anyone who has something bad to say about this place is miserable!!
The food was good and the customer service as well but the place is always crowded there is not parking, not enough space inside for anything, the waiting time is very long. If you are not in a hurry I can recommend this place.
Excellent food bussy breakfast...worth the wait never leave hungry
Great Neighborhood Gem! Wonderful breakfasts, good menu, friendly service and reasonably priced! This place is my favorite breakfast spot in the area!
It's a great breakfast place. The only downsides are that the parking is metered, it's very small inside and gets crowded quickly, and they are a cash-only establishment which is just really inconvenient.
It’s simple diner fare, but quality service and probably the most personable place in Bronxville. Cash only though, but should not be an issue at their prices.
This place is a gem- located in the heart of Bronxville. You need to get there early for breakfast to get a seat. The food quality is amazing. They also do dinners on Thursdays.
The diner itself is tiny and doesn't seat many people so get there early or you'll be waiting a while, but the food is worth the wait! Everything was delicious.
We drive 20 minutes in the wrong direction to have breakfast here. Quaint and always busy. Staff is friendly and attentive. The omelettes are stuffed and delicious.
I wish i could give 100 stars. Love this place food is always delicious! Great service! Best breakfast in Westchester.
Staff is wonderful and friendly! Cute, cozy and inviting. Food taste amazing I just wish the portion was a little larger.
Simply THE BEST! Amazing food, old school neighborhood joint. We eat here 3x week.
If you are looking for Mexican breakfast dishes this is the place to go. Always excellent and the wait staff is great, especially Sue. Tiny place so expect a wait on the weekends.
I like it! Had the corned beef hash and devoured it. Really good food, great staff. First time visit but I'll be back.
Great little spot for a meal, typical diner fare with some great breakfast specials that lean towards Mexican flavor. Check the website for their hours, and be aware parking in the neighborhood can sometimes be tough to find.
Everything I've had a very good I'm just not happy about the home fries is just fried potatoes other than that their specials are awesome and very tasteful. Nice menu!
Nice local place. Good food and service.
Best cooks. Great service. Food is plentiful and delicious. A gracious place to dine with friends and neighbors. A+++
One of the best little secrets for breakfast in town. Super reasonable, great selection, nicest people. Awesome coffee, too. Their homefries are delicious.
Nice place, good bagels, outdoor tables BUT, you CAN'T take bagels to go, kind of surprising..
We enjoyed the experience, so much fun, we're everybody knows your name.!! Much love from California
Okay I love this place so much, I call it a "vacation" breakfast place. However, I would love if they have 1 or 2 vegan options because ordering fruit, bread, and potatoes is fun, but would to amp it up to amazing...vegan pancakes anyone?
Nice small place. Very welcoming and staff was polite and efficient. Good food. Decent prices.
Delicious breakfast. Inexpensive. Good food. Good menu. 10 minutes to be seated. Very popular.
Excellent food that comes out quickly. Service with a smile and you always get a genuine "Good Morning" when you walk in. Very cozy.
Very busy place, excellent food and staff.
Best bfast in the 914!! Try the pancake special with a side of home fires. Off tha hook! Omelettes are great too.
They make the best omelette ever and the only place I know that have gluten free bread. Love, love, love this place. Wonderful staff.
Super friendly. We were just passing through, but treated like the regulars. Loved the banana nut pancakes.
Always great food and great service, we have found our favorite local breakfast stop.
Great breakfast, customer service and prices. It gets packed on the weekends, but it's worth the wait!
friendly staff, good food.
Small place so impossible to social distance
I ordered eggs, ham, bacon and potatoes. Everything was 100% Delicious! This place is a must try!
Great taste but really uncomfortable to eat there and some of the guys working there should have more training on how to treat custumers because they were rude.
Local Joint where everyone knows everyone.I was an outsider yet Maureen treated me,(only African-American), in the place as though I were her Brother.Food on scale of 1 to 10 was a 9 and Maureen Pesronality was way over a 10 👍 👍 👍 …
Great spot to get good food at a good price. Great staff!
Tiny place but big with the tastiest breakfasts & always-friendly service
Had to wait a while for seating, but food was nice, so was the server
Fantastic diner! Breakfast is outstanding, and Thursday dinner is superb.
Close knit family restaurant. I like going here because of the diversity of the menu. I usually have breakfast.
Tried the turkey chili, great coffee and service. Exceptional cafe in Bronxville. Great value.
Really good. The staff is so nice and the food is delicious.
It is like CHEERS! A very friendly place that serves excellent meals.
Grilled swiss with tomato on wheat is to die for! A bit small and somewhat noisy but good food
