About The Café at Wave Hill

Located at 675 W 249th St, Bronx, NY 10471, The Café at Wave Hill operates as a cafe serving Bronx in New York. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it. Google also lists it under restaurant, which is worth knowing if you are comparing several options in the area.

This group covers the non-Asian restaurants, cafes, bars and food businesses that also appear in a mixed-cuisine food scene, including American diners, pizza, Mexican food, burgers, steakhouses and bakeries. Standard US restaurant norms apply: lunch and dinner service with a quieter stretch between, cards and tap-to-pay accepted almost everywhere, and a tip of 15-20% customary for table service. Fast food and quick-service counters expect payment up front and tipping is optional. Bars check ID for anyone who looks under 30, and the drinking age is 21 nationwide. Many restaurants in this group take reservations online through third-party platforms, while casual and fast-food spots are walk-in only. Sales tax is added at the register on top of the menu price and varies by city and state, so the final total is usually a few percent higher than the posted prices suggest.

Hours are published for 2 days a week. Typical hours are 10:30 AM–4 PM. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (718) 796-8538. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, wavehill.org.

On Google it holds a rating of 4.3 out of 5 from 243 reviews, which is a strong result for a cafe in Bronx and suggests consistent service.

Bronx is in New York, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Bronx follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

My mom and I came to the Cafe at Wave Hill for afternoon tea. The experience was beyond our expectations. Anastassia was a wonderful hostess! Each item was curated specially for the afternoon tea. There was a great selection of sweet and savory items along with a lovely tea selection. We both enjoyed ourselves. There was an intimate atmosphere and the staff was kind and courteous! We would visit again. We highly recommend!

We were disappointed with the coffee at this café. We ordered three different drinks: a latte, a regular coffee, and a seasonal pumpkin latte. The coffee itself had almost no flavor. My seasonal drink was enjoyable only because of the added spices, but the coffee itself was quite unpleasant.

The Café at Wave Hill truly exceeded all my expectations! The portions are fair, tasty, fresh and generally well blanched. The fact that they use locally sourced ingredients is also a wonderful bonus. We had Cobb salad, chicken caesar wrap, and a breaded chicken sandwich. The indoor dining area is in a beautifully historic building and many of the meals offered are made by kitchen staff to order. It was clean and the workers were wonderful, even at peak hours, but the outside dinning section stole the show for us. Having a quick bite surrounded by nature enhances the whole experience.

What a lovely place to be. The cafe is a bit overpriced for small portions but the food is great, fresh and healthy. We had salads and lemonade but the best park of this is garden itself with mini hiking and lots of plants- the river view and the numerous benches and chairs

Great cafe with with outdoor seating vibrant space. Good vegetarian options and lemonades are delicious. This is part of the Wave Hill Park. The structure in which it is located is historic. Good break from walking around this beautiful park. A gem in Riverdale Section of Bronx. Only negative is one cannot go to just eat there without paying the fees for the park entrance.
