I'm surprised it has taken me this long to eat at this spot! My friends and I came for brunch on a busy Saturday afternoon (so fun to find parking in Scarsdale Village!) We did have reservation and were seated fairly quickly. After a bit of time scanning the menu we were able to order. I decided on the Leo omelette. On the menu it did list that it came with home fries and a bagel but when I asked the waiter, she told us that didn't apply to it. In any case, I ordered it with multigrain bread. Also to note- home fries do not come with the omelettes, they are an additional charge. During the checking out process, the waiter was rushing us out and barely left us time to calculate what we each owed. I took off a star for that because I didn't like the feeling of being rushed and put on the spot. read more

Absolutely gross. First of all the place looks filthy. But we were starving and the village doesn't have much to offer so I ordered pancakes. I thought they had a nice texture ate 2 of them on the third I see something embedded and it was like a black string? Black twine? Absolutely disgusted. How in such a busy diner in the morning during a Saturday rush does that even happen? I tried to call and the line was busy to tell them and what's the point I mean they won't do anything about it anyways. Never ordering from there again read more

If there was a way to give less than one star I would. I would never come back here again. We ordered a tuna wrap and there was barely any tuna. It was all lettuce. So we asked if we could get more tuna and they wanted to charge me for it. My client said that that was unprofessional. We already paid for it and there wasn't enough tuna. So not only was the owner rude. Then his fiancé came over and yelled at my client in front of everyone because I guess my client said something to her fiancé. So unprofessional. I will never go back. And guess what, the food wasn't even good. read more

This place is a cornerstone of Scarsdale. This establishment has been here since I was a kid. This family owned establishment has excellent service and great omelettes. The pictures of the kids on the wall are now full grown and work here. I recommend the Avocado Omelette with egg whites. This place makes some of the best omelettes I have ever had!!! The ambiance is timeless diner vibes from the 80s and 90s. The upholstery was recently changed so the seats are comfortable. I highly recommend this place. read more

The best breakfast preparations in the area the omelettes are exceptionally good. The only drawback is,it is small and always crowded and sometimes a longish wait for a seat or table Our favorites are the Andy's omelettes and the various salads for lunch. I believe they close after lunch. read more

Service was awesome--attentive and proactive. Booths were smallish and if your a large person (which I am not) then you might be a little uncomfortable. The booths and the ambience was 1960s to 1960s feel. Lighting was fine and no music (hooray) but place was echoic nonetheless. Food was average to good. Omelette had plentiful ingredients and was nice sized. The muons and mushrooms seemed fresh and were dutifully cooked prior to placing in omelette. Thank you. The pesto salad was large and the large bread adornments with toasted Parmesan and pesto were soggy but tasted great. The dressing was pesto and Parmesan and was delicious--lots and lots of dressing (not a bad thing). The eggplant was not bitter and was cooked very nicely with some Parmesan. Nice portion. read more

The food is consistently not great. How could a diner ruin an omelette? By stuffing it with onions and peppers that were overcooked and supposedly with bacon, but couldn't even find one piece in there. Not recommended! read more

They discriminate against single diners and won't allow them to sit in empty booth. Apparently are money isn't as good. Why can't two customers sit at counter if all booths are filled up? read more

I was refused to be seated in a booth because I was single. Only couples on weekends the waiter said!

Quaint. Great offerings. We loved the outdoor seating area. Our waitress Maddy was fabulous, spot-on menu recommendations and extremely attentive and engaging. read more

I went here and the food was good, a little pricey, and service was good. The problem is that they are making really distasteful and disturbing political statements in the restaurant. They had displayed prominently a "Trump 2020" dollar bill indicating that they are supporters of the lie conspiracy theories that Trump won the 2020 election. I felt it was really inappropriate and indicates a lack of character in the part of the management which makes me never want to go back again. read more

Good food, good service, very in and out type of place in my opinion. It's a bit of a squeeze but it adds to the quirkiness. Recommend for early breakfast. read more

I arrived very early for a business meeting in the area. With over an hour to spare breakfast sounded like a good decision. Yelp suggested Parkway Coffee Cafe, so I'm in. Yelps directions brought me to a residential neighborhood, but I persisted and drove about a mile further and found it. I corrected the location for future Yelping so we'll see what happens. Next, metered street parking only. This is Scarsdale so feed the meter. They don't fool around here. OK enough of this. Let's get to the food ... first this cafe is very small, just a handful of booths and counter service. I choose the counter for the sake of time. I ordered scrambled eggs with ham. I like my eggs scrambled loose. Sitting at the counter I got to watch the cook do his thing. My eggs: perfectly cooked. Ham, several slices and cooked nicely. No potatoes and I passed on the toast. I have to mention that when I walked in I was greeted immediately and my waitress was right there to take no order. I'm not one who likes to wait so right now I'm happy. So sounds perfect right? So why 4 Stars and not 5. OK, as I started with, parking can be a hassle. Lastly, I used the restroom before I left. Only one bathroom and to say small is an understatement. More like tiny. Standing your back is pushed tightly against the door and if you sit. Your knees will be forced against the door. Also, sink is outside the bathroom. A little unusual. Food definitely good, service, excellent. Would I come back.. Hmmm good question. read more

Sweet Potato. The only thing that caught my attention when I read about Parkway in 'Westchester Magazine' and enough for me to visit. And since my daughter was visiting for the weekend, down we went. Nice stone exterior- but with an odd, outside seating arrangement feet away from their entrance and right on the curb. Retro, shimmer booths, black cushioned-metal bar stools, even with several unusual, poster-size, framed baby photos above their flat top grill and counter. We waited no more than 5 minutes for a booth. One of the young guys was nice to bring us our menus and service after that- from our waitress, was extremely patchy. To note, their AC unit right above seating is exposed- just looked real off to me and felt it was blowing dust- didn't look cute. My daughter's vegetarian meal of fruit, sautéed veggies and hash browns, were good (you just can't mess those up). My 'Sweet Potato' pancakes- that I've been dreaming about, tasted nothing like it. Instead, they reminded me of a pumpkin pie- (that I'm not fond of- at all) with too much allspice. Though I will admit, they were moist and fluffy. My 2-Over Easy Eggs were doable. My Vanilla Egg Cream was nice and gets two thumbs up on that one. Again, there was intermittent slowness- from the time we began eating to getting our check. For Scarsdale standards prices are reasonable. Menu items looked ok but nothing out of this world. Three and half stars for me. For first time, Parkway was ok, but I tried and conquered. read more

I went here before Covid. Wow. What a sad transformation. Food was cheap greasy (low grade oil), the bagel sandwich was more of a mess than a meal, and the waitress forgot she took our bill and didn't bring back our change 24$ from a 50$) I want to support local business, but wow, are these new owners? I missing some information/what not to order off the menu? What gives? Sheesh. Another business bites the dust post-Covid for me and my family. Sorry, guys. ‍ read more

Great place for breakfast. The coffee is outstanding, bagels are fresh, and the eggs are cooked to perfection. It's a definite "locals" spot, with many regulars coming in every day. Nice staff and an overall friendly venue. read more

Small, crowded, bland food, a little dingy. Only redeeming factor was our kind waitress.

Met up with my daughter there for breakfast Sunday morning and Vinnie was awesome!! Service was on point and food was amazing!! Will def visit again. read more

This place has a great location for outside dining in the center of Scarsdale. Good breakfast and lunch food. Piper loves the bacon and the atmosphere. Sometimes crowds arrive all at once, so the patio can get a little behind and you should expect a line up around noon. read more

Service is absolutely horrible and not family friendly at all. Came in with a stroller and was told grab the first table however the inside is extremely small and not stroller accessible. When I asked about sitting outside noting my stroller I was told we can't help with that. Don't recommend for a family. read more

After taking a morning stroll in Scarsdale, we decided to eat at the Parkway Coffee Shop. We noticed that they had a 2 star average, so we actually knew what we were getting into beforehand, but we were too lazy and hungry to search out another spot, so Parkway it was. First and foremost, the food. They offer typical diner fare here, meaning lots of eggs, sandwiches, and salads. You'd think these kinds of dishes would be a slam dunk at a corner diner, but, no, everything was a total misfire. We got an omelette with mushrooms and tomatoes, a Reuben, fries, and 2 coffees, and, to be kind, it was nothing special. Flavorless eggs (saved by the really good hot sauce they had), and a soggy sandwich with overcooked fries. Also, big loss of points for the coffee, which was a monstrosity - basically the equivalent of drinking liquified soot with a dash of misery. Aside from the food, we agreed that pretty much everything else at this place was a calamity, like the service, which was very subpar. While pleasant, the servers were pretty lax and forgetful about some basics. For example, we never got the water we originally asked for, and after being served we had to wait quite a while for silverware and napkins. Shouldn't that be the first thing we get? It also took forever to get our food, easily 20 minutes. As for cleanliness, this place needs to get some sort of hygienic plan going, because it looked neglected, dirty, and sad. The outdoor table we sat at was incredibly dirty and sticky from previous customers, so much so that 4 out of 5 times that my arm hit the table, I recoiled in horror and grabbed one of my kids wet wipes to get the mystery goo off (Is it ketchup? Is it cream? Is it soda? Who knows!?) They tried to help by wiping it down, but it really needed a deep clean rather than a soiled rag, and unfortunately I don't think it was in the cards. Also, the bathrooms were absolutely hideous. I'm no manager, but when customers walk in to take a leak and are seeing liquid shit sprayed all over a bowl and seat, it's probably not so good for repeat business. Perhaps its time to look into fresh cleaning tactics and, in particular, a toilet brush of some sort. Finally, the tab was outrageously expensive, with the total coming to just over $40 for a very basic, and poorly executed lunch. Unfortunately the annoyances didn't end with the check. When I went to pay, I found out they don't take credit cards, only cash, something that was never disclosed prior to paying the bill. So, as I am ready to take off, I had to take a 10 minute detour and schlep over to the bank to get some loot. What an hassle. In the end, 2 stars is way, WAY too high for these guys. This place is truly one of the worst restaurants I've ever dined at in Westchester. It doesn't even deserve 1 star to be honest. read more

First, what is this cafe thinking treating it's customers like this??? People coming to downtown Scaradale for business don't want this type of service, I can assure you that. I came to Parkside Cafe on Friday morning on the way to a day-long meeting. I walked in at about 8:40 and, while the waitress acknowledged me, it was 15 minutes before I got my iced tea and I left without getting my blueberry muffin. When I tried my iced tea, it tasted off, as if it had been made with bad tap water or something. I was only able to drink a fee sips before I had to toss it out. What a waste of a nice cafe space along the train in Scarsdale - Scarsdale is supposed to be the "new" Westchester. This cafe does nothing to enhance Scarsdale. I recommend that it be replaced with a Financier. read more

Parkway Cafe - Inside of cafe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Scarsdale, New York

Hate iceberg lettuce . I know is healthy but is the cheapest green and the most tasteless . I wish they wound give 1/3 of the side salads they give with a different green . My smoked trout sandwich was rather good. Coffee is enough to get your caffeine fix but nothing special especially when Starbucks is a cross the street . ( not a Starbucks fanatic ) They only take cash or checks . ATM inside has a cost associated with it. 21 century and cash only ? read more

Parkway Cafe - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Scarsdale, New York

Have been coming to this diner for as long as I've been alive! The family that owns the place is extremely kind and friendly and the food is amazing! Always a good option for when you want any hot sandwiches. We always make the trek to Scarsdale just to come here to eat because we know it's going to be good. The coleslaw and sauerkraut are unmatched! Unfortunately we came in for lunch on Christmas Eve and were "greeted" by a hostess who was actually quite rude. She notified us that we'd be next in line for a table and there was a wait which is to be expected as it's a popular spot. In the past we've walked around and come back if the wait is long, so I asked how long it would be. You never know if the tables just sat and haven't been serviced it could be 30 mins but if people were wrapping up it could be just five minutes, so I figured I'd ask. She said fifteen minutes, I said okay we'll just pop next door and be right back. Wanted to say hi to a friend I saw literally next door... she proceeded to roll her eyes and tell me with a big attitude that "wellll I can't hold the table for you". Which is understandable, I just thought if it was fifteen minutes we could go next door for a minute to say hi. I didn't expect her to save a table for us but thought if it was a wait we'd be back within five minutes. Either way she could have said this nicely but that was not the case. She was not having us and never smiled and was just giving off an off putting vibe. As we were speaking a table was being cleared. She then told us well "if the people, who knows if they come back or not, if they don't then you'd sit like right now". But you could tell she was annoyed.. So we debated leaving, my family noted she was treating us poorly and didn't want to eat there... But I live for their sandwiches so I suggested we stay. She proceeded to go about her business answering the phone and then motioned for us to go to the table motioning with her wrist waving us over there quite exasperated.. I realized she was on the phone so she didn't need to say anything or converse with us but even eye contact would have been nice. Later a couple sat down at the bar and then after their interaction with her they left... just cus of the way she spoke to them ordering them to move over instead of just asking nicely. I've worked in the service industry and get that people can have a bad day but we came in happy and excited and her unpleasantness was pretty off putting... however that being said, the food was great (I suggest the Rachel) and our waiter was really friendly. read more

Parkway is a nice, quaint, and reliable place in the middle of the village. The waiters have always been extremely nice and attentive, and the seating area gives small diner vibes, and it's clean and comfortable. The breakfast food is alright, and I'm personally a fan of the BLT sandwich/wrap. The food quality is not remarkable, but you'll be able to get a good meal for the price, especially compared to the other restaurants in Scarsdale village. read more

Has anyone noticed that the 2 guys cooking all the food don't wear the necessary gloves for food preparation? In between one of them cooking , he was on his phone , and we all know how dirty cell phones are. This is a clear food safety issue that should be dealt with. We won't be back until the owner posts that his kitchen crew starts wearing food safety prep gloves. Ugh.? read more

This place is a throwback to the good ole days when cafes and diners were the heart of the neighborhood. You walk in and expect to see Grandpappy and Meema whipping up their family's famous pancake recipe...except today it's Daniel and Jose. This Tuesday Morning was stop #2 on the Westchester Diner Tour for me and my bro and we were not disappointed. I had the pancake deluxe with scrambled eggs and bacon - everything was cooked with the proper amount of butter and lovin' and was very satisfying. My brother had the ole fashioned French toast and sausage and was not overly excited about it. He's a French toast snob and prefers Challah French Toast so we won't hold that against the good folks at the Parkway Cafe. All in all we had a great business breakfast with wonderful service. 7.1/10 we recommend. - Two Brothers of Westchester Diner Reviews read more

Really great customer service. The staff is very friendly and provide a warm environment for the customers. The place is small, but I think that is part of the appeal. Even though they sell food, it is not a diner or restaurant - it's a small cafe. The prices are extremely reasonable. I came for breakfast - the banana pancakes are bomb. I mean they are worth coming for. Warm, and delicious. Not like an average diner's pancakes. They truly are amazing and worth coming back for alone. Everything else with my breakfast was good as well - except the bacon was a little dry kind of tasted frozen. But everything else was delicious. I definitely am coming back again - those pancakes are life itself!! read more

Absolutely disgusting place! Filthy food and rude people, DONT GO! Nobody wears gloves and they touch everything with bare hands. Gross. I've been in the food industry my whole life, when I pointed out the lack of gloves worn I was told, "yeah, sometimes they wear them". read more

The best short order cooks in Westchester by far. Don't miss this spot! Omelettes cooked they way you want. Salads fantastic. read more

I ordered an egg white omelette with veggies and added feta cheese on top. Added English muffin instead of toast. With a coffee. Total came to $16 Pros: food portion was good the waitress was efficient and nice the decor was pleasant, gave the feeling I was at an established place - no need for formalities, eventually they will know your name and start your order as soon as your eyes meet. (not the case that I experienced, but I the people who worked there seemed friendly enough for that kind of report to develop) Cons: too much oil in the omelette, vegetables were soggy, taste was not worth the price people could have been friendlier read more

Rudest. Worst service. Mean owner/manager. Saw him make some people move from an outside table for no reason. Bad neighbor. Don't go there.

This is a great neighborhood staple. The food is always great, the chopped salads, omelettes and French fries are awesome. The place is cramped during peak lunch hours otherwise getting a seat is ok. Think old school diner decor. During the summer it's nice they have tables outside too. I gave it 4 stars because it is pricy and they only take cash. I will continue to go back because the food is just that good! read more

I'll keep it short and sweet... Great triple-decker Turkey Club... Turkey is cut fresh off-the-bird... Bacon cooked perfectly, and some of the greenest lettuce I've ever seen... Now for the atmosphere and prices... Very crowded, and stuffy... They cram you in here like sardines... The place is noisy and full of obnoxious stay-at-home mom's that flaunt there ginormous Louis Vuitton handbags that look more like shopping bags! And for the prices... They only accept cash, and charge almost double the norm for everything. But I guess when you are in the land of the one-percenters, you can get away with highway robbery. The food was good so I'll afford it 3-Stars... Just be prepared for some sticker-shock when the check arrives. read more

After visiting my deontologist around the corner, my husband and I stopped to eat a this small gracious place, good customer service, food fairly Ok. Family oriented Italian warm atmosphere, lovely pictures on the walls, two young fellows beautifully running business. Only one embarrassing moment, it's a cash only business, no signs posted, our first time there, we had to run to the bank and get cash because plastic money is not accepted (checks or cash only) read more

I've been to the Parkway Coffee Shop a few times in the past. I wasn't anxious to go back, but some friends wanted to go to breakfast there. The booths are cramped. The food is OK, but overpriced. The service is variable. It was satisfactory when we were there, but I have had bad meals there. There are better options out there. read more
