GONGU
GŌNGU is one of the most interesting new openings in Riga right now – a Japanese–Peruvian (Izakaya Nikkei) restaurant and cocktail bar in the Old Town / riverfront area. Set in a three-level historic building with interconnected, super-stylish spaces: antique brick, hand-painted murals, a rusty-chic spiral staircase, and views towards the river.From Neiburgs Hotel's guide.
-
Mulberry
Mulberry is a stylish bakery–café and breakfast spot in central Riga, somewhere between a patisserie, a brunch place, and a neighbourhood living room. Interior is bright, modern, and quite “Instagram-ready”, but the atmosphere is still relaxed and family-friendly rather than hyper-trendy. It’s explicitly kids- and pet-friendly. Great if you want a pretty breakfast or brunch, good pastry, and a calm place to sit, or if you need a reliable cake source for birthdays and small events.From A22 Hotel's guide.

Cafe Mimosa
Cafe Mimosa is a design-y all-day breakfast spot in Riga’s Art Nouveau district – very “weekend brunch but on a Tuesday”. Designed by The Catch Family (the same team behind other stylish Riga spots), with around 118 m² of space. Expect a clean, contemporary look that fits the Art Nouveau neighborhood without being old-fashioned. The menu is quite short but deliberately curated: think elevated eggs, pancakes, sandwiches, bowls, and a few sweet plates rather than a huge “book” of options.From A22 Hotel's guide.
-
Better Bread Lab
A fully 100% gluten-free bakery and café. Everything—breads, pastries, cakes—is made without gluten, refined sugar or “junk” additives. The founders trained in Italy, England and Germany and position it as a gourmet gluten-free spot, not a compromise. Expect proper espresso drinks made on serious equipment (Linea-style machine), plant-based milks, and take-coffee-seriously baristas.From A22 Hotel's guide.
-
Potami
POTAMI is a modern Greek restaurant on the Daugava riverfront in Riga — think “Greek island meets contemporary design” rather than a classic taverna. Greek/Mediterranean cuisine with seafood, grills, and meze-style starters; ingredients like olive oil, cheeses, seafood, and herbs are brought in directly from Greece. Expect things like dips, filo pastries, grilled fish and octopus, lamb, salads, plus Greek-leaning desserts.From A22 Hotel's guide.
-
Shoyu
An authentic ramen shop / izakaya-style restaurant on Ausekļa iela 20, in the so-called “Silent Centre” of Riga. The place specialises in classic ramen with rich, slow-cooked broths and house-made noodles, as well as Japanese starters and a selection of rice bowls. Shōyu holds a MICHELIN Bib Gourmand for offering outstanding quality at good value – one of just a few places in Latvia with this distinction.From A22 Hotel's guide.
