Riva Foodlounge - cafeteria meets beach club on the Merwede

At Gorinchem's most iconic spot, on the edge of Buiten de Waterpoort, you'll find Riva Foodlounge. A relaxed hotspot where the best of both worlds come together: the familiar cosiness of a cafeteria with the looks and laidback atmosphere of a modern beach club.

Inside, it's bright, spacious and stylishly finished. Outside, the terrace looks out over the Merwede, with passing boats as a backdrop. Here you can enjoy fresh chips, a tasty lunch, a luxury snack or just an ice-cold drink in the sun.

Start your day with a good cup of coffee and a genuine Gorcums pastry: the Waterpoortje. Between walks, bike rides or boat trips, sit down for something savoury. And at the end of the day you can end your day in a relaxed way on our spacious terrace, with friends, family or just by yourself.

Riva Foodlounge is accessible, warm and beautifully finished in every detail. Everyone quickly feels at home here: from city walkers to water lovers, from local residents to casual passers-by.

At Riva, it always feels a little bit like a holiday.
Come in, slide in and experience it for yourself.
