Walked in and the staff doesn’t greet you. They all look visibly annoyed that my group even walked in. No wonder they’re not busy on a Saturday night. This place sucks. Avoid.

Amazing place with outdoor seating and fire place with river view. Relax and enjoy after a good shoping experience in the nearby outlets

They didn't have any vegan options, so my friend had to have literally a pile of leaves. No other veggies, from what I recall. They didn't even have dressing for it. It was just dry leaves. Our server was great, though. He never seemed annoyed by us, and even when I asked why the mushroom toast couldn't be made vegan he knew why off the top of his head. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive! I had checked the menu the night prior, and there were one or 2 options that seemed like they could be changed into something vegan, but literally the day we went happened to be a menu change and they took away those options! The mushroom toast wasn't even amazing, and the topping is pre-mixed and not made-to-order. I'd still go back for the atmosphere, but if you're looking for something super awesome this isn't it. River Bar could be so much better. At least the server was great! I think his name is Josh. (: If he hadn't provided as good of service as he did, I don't think I'd be willing to go back for a very long time. I'm a server myself, so I thoroughly appreciate and understand good service.

I’ve been here several times. Beautiful spot however this last time was not a good experience. The bartender was not attentive to the customers at all. Her friends were at the bar and they seemed to be the only people getting service. The music was way too loud and it felt uncomfortable. We won’t be back.

Wonderful place to grab a drink and have some food. Friendly atmosphere that makes it seem like a small town bar. Would recommend it to anybody!

Came in on a cold Thurs night and was happy to find the warmers were on full blast - it was so cozy! Kim Mica and Josh - the manager and bartenders- were so much fun and welcoming. This is the perfect place for after dinner or post shopping drinks!
