However, the food was just ok, portions were very small for the cost (see attached avocado toast for proof). The service was ok. We went for brunch in the summer and it was not busy at all, probably due to not being football season timing. I was disappointed with their drink options; no tea - ice or hot- and no Dr. Pepper or Vernors. I was equally annoyed that they did not have their full menu available and were only offering their brunch options (it was 12:30 pm ish). I would think since their brunch options were so limited they would have their normal menu available but sadly not. It is a good place to go for small bites. And no parking onsite, only valet with the hotel is available.

All for $14 which is a really good deal. The chicken was some of the best chicken I've had ever, it was drenched in their bbq sauce which I love, the Caesar was a good portion size and onion rings were crisp. There was a lot of TVs in the bar to watch sports, and had many great deals for food as well, highly recommended coming to eat here. I will be back

We visited late and really just stopped in to get a drink but the owner was there and gave us a quick tour. We explored the machines, barrels and containers used to make all spirits and learned about the process of creating their unique blend of spirits. The history of this place is very compelling and our drinks (flamingo) were crafted with perfection. We left with their Apple vodka and that bottle didn't make it through the weekend. The night we visited, no events occurred but the owner did mention they have live music and other events regularly. An overall cute spot I'd return to.

The wings were very good and worth the price in my opinion. The karaoke that night was fun, the line was super long, so we didn't do it but was fun listening to it.

Lines would wrap all the way around the block at times on Thursdays. Nate and I were in town recently and decided to stop in and catch part of the Lions game. I laughed out loud when they asked for our IDs to enter - but glad to see they're enforcing this for all patrons. They have Truly on tap, which I don't see very often. With the help of the bartender we ordered a pitcher of Truly to share - their pitchers are small, and this one was full of ice. I think they're about 30 ounces or so. There are a lot of TVs and fun neon signs for all your Instagram needs. There are two areas of the bar - a main seating area with the stage and pool tables (which were converted to water pong tables) and the side room with the bar. It was pretty early on a Sunday afternoon, so it was quiet with only a handful of other people at the bar, which was nice. I'm sure The Riv is still a busy place on evenings and weekends.
