The River Coffee Company

The coffee is really good and everyone is so nice.

The River is my favorite Decatur coffee shop! Such a great atmosphere, peaceful and relaxing. The coffee is worth every penny! Great people, great coffee, great atmosphere.

Great cup of coffee, full body, great flavor, good value, very knowledgeable of coffee, friendly staff

Just passing through, staying at a hotel in Forsyth. Definitely worth the 12 minute drive to get "real", handmade coffee. Everything was outstanding, baristas were friendly and the atmosphere in the cafe was chill, hip and welcoming. Highly recommended!

Let's talk about the best coffee in Decatur, IL.
Granted it's not a to go type of shop. However, the best cup of coffee will obviously take time. I don't know many owners that take the time to get to know every customer, but this place does! Looking for a restful atmosphere with good coffee? Then check this place out!

I loved going here to do work over the weekends. The owners are very knowledgable about the drinks they provide and are dedicated to quality. I enjoyed everything I tried here and would strongly recommend their tumeric latte. I also enjoyed the friendly environment where while it was not uncommon to see people reading or discussing the bible and the music usually included Christian tracks it was by no means pushy or in your face. Overall would recommend to anyone who enjoys good warm beverages or a friendly Christian environment.

Always welcoming by myself or with friends. Great Amazing Coffee for any mood I’m in and any taste I want. My wife likes the teas and the atmosphere. The whole place is neat and clean from the front door to the bathrooms which have flowing faucets!

Beautiful café nestled in the downtown area of Decatur Illinois; Ideal spot for a meeting or reading a book or, in my case, both. Atmosphere is pleasant and relaxed, coffee is incredible and fresh, and connected next door is an eclectic shop with tonnes of cool items. EDIT: the shop has been moved to a new location and no longer has an attachment; while this is unfortunate, it is also to be expected when a building burns down - am I right?

The Ethiopian pour over was delicious. The best cup of coffee I’ve had since moving to Central Illinois. My wife’s sidecar (cappuccino with side shot) was also excellent. The space is well designed and the the noise level is not too loud. I just wish they had a second location in Springfield.

Not your average coffee shop! If you love coffee or you're someone like me who doesn't drink much coffee, stop in and the staff will find something you'll enjoy. They make their own flavor "syrups" and size their coffees off of traditional pours. It's a quaint shop that you might drive by if you didn't know it was there. Great people!
