Riverdel

Spend a ton of money here and stock up on luxurious vegan goods. Everything is expensive, but rendering cheese from nuts is arduous work. The breakfast sandwiches are satisfying and the freezer is full of goodies. I love their (VERY) spicy cheese spread. They’re delivery is fast if you order in the morning. While you pay a bit for the goods, the city needs places like this fill the voids. It’s tough to find everything this place has to offer anywhere in Queens or Northern Brooklyn.

In an overall vegan-friendly city, Riverdel nonetheless manages to surprise visitors with novel, fun vegan products. The sandwiches are great (though I miss The Greek!), and staff are courteous and show interest in feedback regarding the food. The products are not cheap, but I consider them to be a treat, so I don't take issue with this. Thank you, Riverdel, for always having Pride Enjoy rainbow cookies in stock :)

Very small place, but great selection of vegan cheeses and dairy. Super helpful staff! If you're looking for a specific brand or item I suggest calling ahead as stock changes weekly. Offers some great sandwiches and small bites, also has a soft serve machine although it was out of service last time I visited.

My favorite vegan spot hands down. They have amazinggggg sandwiches (The Greek is my favorite) and pastries too. The cinnamon bun is exquisite. They have a great selection fancy of vegan cheeses, meats, other vegan snacks, food, sauces & pantry items. The cheese used in the sandwiches tastes like real cheese. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. This place just hits the spot if you don’t eat dairy or want to cut down. Filling, healthy, cheesy, delicious. The place is small with limited seating so I suggest eating your deliciousness on the steps of nearby Brooklyn Museum or grab a bottle of twist off wine nearby and head with your sandwiches to Prospect Park for a little picnic. Or just devour on the spot. Great place to stock up on fancy cheeses and snacks if you're lactose intolerant and still want to have a wine & cheese night with friends or just craving a delicious sandwich or just coffee & a pastry.

I just recently became vegan due to dietary restrictions from some health issues and I was so excited to find Riverdel! Everything is vegan and they have an amazing selection of vegan meat and dairy substitutes. The hardest thing about being vegan was not being able to eat cheese, and this makes it so much easier (do yourself a favor and try the mac n cheese)

Riverdel is my go to vegan place when I'm too lazy to cook. The selection of vegan cheese and vegan products is AMAZING and the staff is always FRIENDLY. LOVE their Mac&Cheese, Croissantwich and Impossible burgers (which my non-vegan husband loves) <3 My guilty pleasure is the Boston cream donut. Check it out you won't be disappointed

Lovely little vegan shop that also has some space to eat in. I opted for the Impossible Cheeseburger and was not disappointed - the patty was cooked well and the condiments and bread fit perfectly - possibly the best burger I’ve eaten! Did not try the charcuterie board but the couple next to me did, and they gave it a lot of praise.
