Blossoms Café: Laid-Back Breakfast and Lunch in Riverhead
Blossoms Café, on the Coatesville-Riverhead Highway in Riverhead, describes itself simply as a laid-back café with a patio — featuring breakfast, sandwiches and salads, plus coffee, wine and beer.
Breakfast built for lingering
The breakfast menu covers a lot of ground, from a simple toasted bagel with homemade lemon curd or berry jam through to heartier plates like the Big Breakfast, with eggs, bacon, sausages, tomatoes and hash brown on toast. Eggs Benedict is served on Turkish flat bread with hollandaise, with a choice of ham, bacon, salmon or a vegetarian option, and the café's own Vudu Breakfast pairs poached eggs and grilled mushrooms with sour cream and pesto. Pancakes, French toast, homemade muesli and a breakfast salad round out the options for something lighter or sweeter.
Lunch moves things up a notch
Once lunch service kicks in, the menu shifts toward more substantial plates. There's a seafood chowder served with a chunk of Pandoro bread, fresh snapper and chips, and a chicken burger with bacon, brie and homemade tamarillo chutney. The beef burger comes with bacon, avocado and homemade tomato sauce, while the B.L.A.T sits on herb focaccia. For something different, the Blossoms Panini combines ham, chicken, avocado, pineapple, onion, cheese and tomato, and the Classic Mince on Toast brings beef mince, poached eggs and green peas together on ciabatta.
Salads and lighter options
Alongside the heartier lunch plates, Blossoms offers a Pumpkin & Kumara Salad served warm with sprouts and avocado, a Chicken Salad with roasted pumpkin seeds, and a Regal Salmon Salad with smoked salmon and vinaigrette. Calamari is served with a fresh garden salad, aioli and fries for anyone after something in between.
Coffee, wine and beer
Beyond the food, Blossoms Café serves coffee alongside wine and beer, making it a spot that works equally well for a quick morning coffee or a more relaxed lunch with a drink.
