Stopped on our way from the Catskills to Brooklyn. We saw the billboard and then almost drove by. The “pizza” flag demarcated the entrance. Friendly, hospitable service. The French Dip was delightful, the roll was crusty and soft, perfect. The deck out back by the creek gave a real ambience to this rustic little cafe. What a find.

Everything about Up the Creek Cafe is excellent. We are so delighted to find this place. I had eggplant rollatini and the eggplant was crisp and SO flavorful, the sauce and the ricotta were perfect. The owners are so friendly and welcoming, and you can tell that their standards are high. We will definitely be back.

Always forget this place delivers so probably haven’t tried them as much as we should. Garlic knots are amazing. Honestly, they’re swimming in oil usually, not sure if that’s a by product of ordering delivery, never had them in house. That being said, a quick roll over a paper towel before serving it up and delicious. Marinara sauce is very good. Love the flavor. Pizza is decent. Good dough, quality cheese, and toppings are fresh. One star off for the sauce though. Somehow, its alil sweet yet very acidic all at the same time adding a bit of a sour taste. Personal opinion, pizza could be really good with some tweaking of the sauce. Have had the “award winning” cheesecake. Its good, but really dont see the big deal that separates it from other good cheesecakes, still makes for a tasty dessert. Staff and delivery people are always friendly and polite. Overall, foods pretty good, could use alil tweaking with certain things but definitely worth stopping in or picking up the phone and ordering up. They get a from me.

What a lovely stop. You are welcomed as you walk in the door with smiles. We could not have asked for better service or food. Plan your visit before 2:30 and after 4:30 because they close two hours every day to clean and sanitize. ❤️

The women working is very friendly and kind. The food on the other hand is not great. The sandwiches would be a lot better with higher quality bread. Also, our food came out quite cold. Overall okay.

I left this review over a month ago and I just had to come back and edit it due to my recent stop at up the creek. The pizza is just amazing thin and delicious the crust and sauce is flavorful and perfect imo. Perfect small pizza / deli/cafe with great prices and awesome friendly staff definitely worth your stop. Added the picture after I ate half of it. I just had to share how delicious it looks / was.

Their pizza is a gem in northern Sussex county! Brought home a couple slices of their award winning cheesecake, and I have to say, one of the best I ever had!
