Great food. Super cute place. Heads up, Cash, Venmo or Zelle only and breakfast ends at the 11. Reasonable pricing. Apple Maps takes you to the back door so park in the front parking lot. We had breakfast but the whole menu looked delicious. Servers were very kind and allowed us to take our time with our meal. read more

We stopped in to grab a cup of coffee and a pastry. What an adorable place! We were greeted by a very friendly Lady who made us feel at home. The inside is pretty with linen table cloths and artwork done by local artists of Rye Beach and the Boardwalk. We ordered a cinnamon coffee cake, a cup of coffee, and an iced tea. The cinnamon coffee cake was hot and fresh out of the oven. Just delicious! Coffee was freshly brewed and the iced tea was perfect. We will be back for lunch soon! read more

One of my favorite breakfast places in Westchester. My fiancé and I usually go here and then head for a walk at the beach. Their pancakes are some of the best around. They taste delicious and are so fluffy and airy. They also have the best omelets and home fries. The cafe is run by a husband and wife. They are the sweetest and kindest people. Always remember us when we go and makes up feel special. Definitely try this place for your next Sunday breakfast. read more

This is, without question, the best restaurant in all of Westchester. The menus for breakfast or lunch are truly amazing. I truly believe that the people who own and run this incredible place should be given a medal for running this masterpiece. Try the sliced steak, no--try the Pasta, no--try the cheddar cheese steak, no--try the Beef Carpaccio, no--try the etc., they the etc., try the etc. When I say this place is amazing, I really mean it. It is truly incredible!!! read more

worst spot! only saw waiter twice - once to order food and then again when he dropped it off. i ordered the yogurt with granola on the side and fruit and he brought it with granola on it and said "oh the chef must have misunderstood" but didn't swap it out or make it right. never checked on us. would not recommend. sad. has potential and sweet environment but not good enough to have crappy service. better off going to the market next door. read more

Great food. Classic vibes. Relax ambiance. Very friendly. Worth visiting. Few of last places left with and old school feel.

Went here solo ordered the banana-walnut stack, the pancakes are dense but good! One star off because they still only have pork sides and cash only! Overall, I felt welcomed and the food was good, not too expensive either. Please get turkey substitute it would put you over the competition. read more

On The Way Cafe - Walnut and Banana Walnut Pancakes - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Rye, New York

If I could give it a zero, I would. The menus are filthy. Not a good look to start. The pancakes are thick, doughy, with a terrible aftertaste that lasted all afternoon. My dining companions, who ordered well-done scrambled eggs and toast, received a plate of gooey yellow stuff and soggy, cold toast. The server was rude, spoke in a loud voice, and seemed annoyed to have to take our orders. At meal's end, I took note that it was cash only and paid by Zelle, using the phone number listed on their website. It didn't go through. The manager gave me a completely different number, and then said use the QR code, which I finally did, holding up my party, who were anxious to get out of there after experiencing the filthy restroom. When I saw that the payment went through, the establishment had a different name: "We're On The Way." Come on, man--put your Zelle number on the check--make it easier to pay, at least! And clean up your act. It's probably safer to eat at Playland. read more

Love this place. Great location, family run with an intimate setting. The food and service was perfect. Fresh baked bread with the wrap was a plus and Philly cheese steak was yummy! Cash only buy they accept Zelle and Venmo. read more

Good home style cooking. Great value! Breakfast after church is never a disappointment. Service is great and food is cooked the way you ask.

My family and I stopped here on our way back to Maryland coming from Cape Cod. It was highly rated on yelp, so we decided to give it a go. We called about 30 minutes prior to inquire if they has space for a party of 9. When we arrived, our table was set up! We were greeted and escorted to our seats. The service was very friendly! The woman who explained the menu and specials to us seemed to be one of the owners. She made great recommendations. I decided on the crab and goat cheese omelet which was delicious! I am a huge fan of goat cheese, so I appreciated this addition. Others had pancakes and French toast which were said to be fresh and delicious. I enjoyed my experience here and would recommend checking them out when you are on your way ;). read more

Amazing spot in Rey, NY . We were in Rey for work conference, we discovered this place !! We had a great meal. Service was beyond awesome! Thank you, On WY Cafe for your hard work to satisfy your customers! Highly recommend! read more

So disappointing! I had read good reviews and was looking forward to trying this place. the service was pretty abysmal - for a place the specializes on breakfast, they did not seem ready for a Sunday crowd (and it wasn't even full). The bathroom was really dirty - the floor looked like it hadn't been mopped in months. We ordered the special eggs in purgatory - almost inedible. the tomato sauce was nothing special and the bread underneath was completely soggy. I had asked for my eggs to be cooked medium and they were super runny. Coffee was weak. We left and had to go home and eat breakfast again because we could only eat a few bites. I have heard the baked good are good, so maybe we just should have had scrambled eggs and a muffin. I won't be going back. read more

Friendly, clean, cute and comfortable environment. Feels like home. Our waitress was friendly. Food was delicious. They have the best home fries I've ever had. The soup of the day was tomato soup, I ordered a bowl of it and it was creamy and delicious. Pricey for a local place. I'd come here again. I didn't ask if they had dairy free milk. CASH only. It's worth it. read more

This intimate family run gem is consistently the very best breakfast (and lunch) offering in the tri-state area! The menu items are all delicious, and the homemade scones and pastries are incredible.

If you live in Rye, or you are visiting the neighborhood, this is a really excellent breakfast, brunch and lunch restaurant. The menu offers a wide choice of meals at reasonable prices; and the service and food quality is first class. I really enjoy eating here. This place has great ambiance and is a local gem. read more

Have been here twice and thought it was alright both times. Definitely pricey for what you get. I got the parmesan and chive omelette with home fries and toast, all of which was good. My husband ordered the buffalo omelette, which sounds interesting, except it was just eggs with cholula hot sauce poured over it, womp womp. Also, the portion sizes are waaay small; serving the meal on square plates that were far too big made the amount of food look almost comical. We also ordered a short stack of banana walnut pancakes, which they are known for. The pancakes themselves were good, on the small side (of course), and priced at what a full stack should be. And the syrup we were given was weirdly not sweet? I don't even know how it's possible to have unsweet maple syrup, but here we are and that unfortunately kind of ruined it. On the previous occasion, my husband ordered a corned beef sandwich he thought was great, however my meal wasn't as memorable as I can't recall it. The food itself is not the issue, it's the portion sizes, especially for the price, and having a cantankerous waiter didn't help either. I was debating between 2 or 3 stars, but then the image of my husband eating my toast to try and feel full popped in my head and that's just unacceptable. Sorry, but it's not like they are serving truffles and caviar. Throwing in an extra egg and some potatoes would be cheap enough and keep customers coming back. read more

Wonderful food and service . Had the frittata - delicious. And it is in a cute house

Wow!! We stopped here from CT on the way to FL!! This place did not disappoint the six of us including two kids!! Phenomenal food and service!! You must stop in if your in the area!! read more

What a gem. Service was friendly and food was spot on. My only complaint was finding it, as its hidden behind a gas station and GPS took me to the back door which has a small sign. That said best Banana walnut pancakes ever and coffee was exceptional. Will be back read more

What a quaint little cafe whether you are headed north or south or anywhere in between. The food was delicious, as everything is locally grown. I had a delicious egg white goat cheese frittata and for dessert my friend and I shared a blueberry crumb cake which had blueberries inside and it was still warm. The service, the ambiance and the food were all terrific. Why only 4 stars you ask - they only accept cash and I wish they had later hours but we can't have everything we want, can we read more

On the way cafe is definitely not on the go cafe. We tried to sit and eat and we're told everyone that arrived ahead had to place their order before they could even take our order even if the other tables were not ready to order. Don't go if you don't have all day. read more

I wish I was local so I could go more often. I went here while I was in New Cannan for work and we were looking for a solid, hardy breakfast --- something that isn't easy to find when traveling for work with a small timeline. I ordered a dish that was on the specials list and I will say, it has changed my entire way of eating eggs. They made poached eggs but instead of using just water to boil and poach, they did it in tomato sauce. It added flavor, spice and was a delicious sauce to accompany my breakfast. Since then, it inspired me to do the same and even take it a step further, salsa/hot sauce. This cafe was delightful. Great mum and pop vibe, kind servers and cashier, great food with a wonderful taste and not too hard on the pocketbook. Again, if I could, I would be a regular! read more

Great little diner type restaurant, but with a fine dining twist. Really glad to have found this place! I came on a recommendation and was instantly impressed. Recently saw that it got a nice right up in the Times, so Im sure many more folks will be grabbing a seat at the counter. I came for lunch, however I'll be back soon to check out the breakfast menu. It is located just across the street from the entrance to Playland Park, which means you can go for a stroll along the boardwalk after you chow down. I tried the tomato soup special and built my own burger. The burger was scrumptious and very well cooked. Parking is a little tight for this location out front, but there is a lot around back if you go down the side street behind the market next door. And think about riding your bike because the roads around here are very bicycle friendly. Looking forward to making this a regular spot on my future brunch adventures :) read more

On The Way Cafe - Delicious Tomato Soup~ - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Rye, New York

We were looking for something quiet & quaint for breakfast. We found it at the On The Way. Cash only so bring some $$. There is an ATM if needed. The menu isn't huge but everything looks amazing. I had the Tuscan egg dish & it was delish. I heard the blueberry pancakes are very good too, I would recommend it to anyone in the Rye area. read more

On The Way Cafe - Check out the color of that yolk! So fresh tasting - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Rye, New York

7/30/21: NOTE: Cash only as well, but they have an ATM inside. INSIDE: Can accommodate a decent amount of people. Old school look and feel, but clean. STAFF: Cordial, and give you space to relax and eat. Came a couple of times to ask if we needed refills of coffee. FOOD: SHORT STACK PANCAKES: $9.00 The short stack was 2 3/4" thick pancakes for $9.00. Expensive for the amount of food. Definitely something to order if you aren't really hungry and are looking to just have a light meal to start the day. Not sure why it's even called a stack...Isn't a stack 3? "THREE" EGG OMELET: $14.00 The omelet, which is stated on the menu to be a three egg omelet, is the smallest three egg omelet I've ever ordered. And at $14.00 it is really a bit ridiculous. The amount of home fries was small as well. Even the size of the slides of rye toast are small. Tasted fine but nothing memorable. SIDE OF SAUSAGE: $5.00 In addition, I ordered a side of sausage for $5.00. Three jones pork sausage sized sausages. At $1.66 each, and tasting similar to jones pork sausages, no value or quantity here to justify $5.00. For $34.00 total (without tip) for a "three" egg omelet, toast, 3 sausage links, four or five forks fulls of home fries, 2 short stack pancakes and coffee: it's a "Rye" type of place to have breakfast. Unfortunately will not return for a $40.00 breakfast for two with tip, where I was hungry after I left. read more
