At arrival this restaurant it was very busy. You would have to join a wait list and there is nowhere for you to stand while waiting for your table to be ready. Me and my family had to go back to the car. The lady at the front desk did get our number wrong. A few times for the wait list, so we had to go back inside to verify. When it was our time to be seated, we came back in, and there was a belligerent drunk in the front of the restaurant who was refusing to leave at this point. We were concerned, but we feel bad for the staff as they were all female. Being that we came here to celebrate a birthday. We were a little bit uneasy. But the staff was really nice and was able to get our orders pretty quick. I think, because everybody was a little bit shaken up things were a little messy, but the drinks were amazing and the vibe was good after the guy left. The food, however, was pretty basic.I think that the drinks had a better representation than the meals themselves. Both the lattes and the alcoholic drinks were good. They were able to surprise our grandmother with a nice cupcake and sparkler, and I think that that experience made up for the beginning of our dining concerns. We will return, upon returning I’ll update this review accordingly.

Such a cute cafe! We got Mickey Mouse pancakes , a breakfast burrito, and a breakfast sandwich. Loved it! They had a special brunch menu and it was super busy, so you need reservations or to plan ahead. We wanted a cinnamon roll, but they were sold out, but what we *did* get was delicious. Definitely recommend it.

Second time visiting Cafe Diem and the food is great. For lunch my wife and I got the breakfast bowl, chicken bacon panini, and the Nutella French toast and the food was exquisite.
We live nearby and we will be frequenting this place more often. I hope they get expand to a bigger location in the future.
Highly recommended and reasonably priced.
It tends to get busy and its a small restaurant so be prepared to wait.

Been here a few times for breakfast that we loved but today tried it for dinner and WOW! Food was excellent, we had the appetizer special (Philly Cheesesteak egg rolls) and for dinner I had steak tacos, and my husband had the vodka pasta and we loved them! Kerri was a great server, attentive and super friendly!

Finally made it here and was so happy with my experience!!! Food was incredible, drinks were lovely, the staff was nice, and the place was (cramped) but so beautiful. I’m so happy. We got two autumn special coffees; I got the breakfast bowl (very filling), and a scone; my friend got the French Toast with a side of sausage, all for around $60. It’s expensive but it’s fancy breakfast and so delicious!

Café Diem is hands down my favorite spot in Pearl River! Whether it’s for coffee, breakfast, or lunch, everything here is always delicious. The menu has so many amazing options, I never know what to pick! We also recently celebrated a special dinner here, and the staff went above and beyond to make it unforgettable! The atmosphere is cozy, the service is friendly, and I can’t recommend this place enough!

While visiting friends, we stopped at Café Diem and had a great meal. Started with the Caesar salad and roasted Brussels sprouts…both really tasty. Then we shared the steak tacos and chicken francese. Portions were generous, flavors were on point, and the service was terrific. A neighborhood gem worth checking out.

Generous portions of delicious food at great prices with cheerful and friendly service in a tastefully decorated cozy space. What more can one want from a little cafe that exceeds all your expectations? My daughter and I found ourselves in the Pearl River post office one day. We saw this cafe across the road and decided to give it a try. I was hungry so I chose the “Mistletoe Benedict” on their holiday season menu. My daughter was not hungry so she picked the “Frickles” (batter fried pickles with aioli dip) snack. When my dish turned up I was quite amazed that there was about an entire avocado sliced on top of at least a dozen stalks of asparagus! We wouldn’t have gotten such a generous serving of freshness for the listed price in any other establishment that we frequent in this area. Same goes for the Frickles – daughter commented that they really supplied her with the money’s worth of pickles :-). The eggs were flawlessly poached, the Hollandaise sauce was just the right thickness and amount (it’s so easy to over do it), and every bite was perfect. What a nice way to warm up our stomachs and hearts during the holiday season! Will definitely go back for other items on the menu!
