River Run Restaurant - Chicken tortilla soup - American Near Me - Hancock, New York

See all

The Riverrun it is one of the best restaurants in the Delaware county area. The location overlooks the Delaware river. The building is a log cabin type structure with a large open dining room. The centerpiece of the dining room is a stone fireplace which is used in the colder weather. There is a second dining area downstairs which is more of a pub type setting.There is a large outdoor patio seating area which is wonderful in the warmer weather. The menu is fairly limited for the entrées but there is a large selection of interesting appetizers. Drinks are well-made and fairly inexpensive. I usually get the chicken or pasta dish, the steaks are hit and miss, But usually good. Service is always quick and attentive.You should always call first, since some nights are only for private parties. They are also closed on Monday and Tuesday. read more

I love this restaurant. Period! We could not be seated the first night we tried to have dinner there so we made a reservation for the following evening. Cutting right to the chase, the food here is consistently excellent but I'd like to comment more on the staff. It was clear that there were only two waitresses on duty and one person to clear the tables. These three people took care of the inside dining room, the outside deck seating, clearing tables and the one waitress was also the bartender. It was amazing to watch them take care of business all the while being under so much pressure and still being so very pleasant and attentive. HATS OFF TO THAT CREW!!! What we saw that evening was astonishing. True professionals. And by the way, the kitchen crew must have been stressed too but the food, as usual was just delicious. read more

Great service, great atmosphere, delicious food, and overall a worthy stop if you're in the area. Only downsides is their location that is kind of off the beaten trail, and their limited seasonal opening. Other than that though their food has always been good quality, portions are decently sized for the price, and they've got some great options for most people who come. Defiantly worth it! read more

Since I am the first to review, this is gonna be long and packed with info! Firsts! My family and I have been coming to the River Run for years when we stay at our cabin in the adjacent town of Deposit. We usually make it our "nice night out" location, as there's not many classy choices in the area. The River Run is a really neat place, it's part of the West Branch Angler fly fishing resort, so it's right on the Delaware river with an amazing mountain view. Great location scenery wise, but it's WAY off the beaten path! Use your GPS to find it for sure, as you trek down some remote backroads on the way. Probably since it's so remote, they have limited menus on certain nights. Check the website and don't try to call for reservations or info, cause they don't answer the phone (maybe too small of a staff?). Granted, our chosen night was a Tuesday, so this all might be different on a weekend. Regardless, they have an upstairs dining room and downstairs bar area, and if it's a "limited menu (bar menu)" night, you're gonna be in the bar area. This is good though, cause the bar has better atmosphere than the dining room! The service was good, our server was fun - and considering they were not expecting a large number of people this particular Tuesday night - can be considered excellent! Our food came out fast and our drinks refilled often. The beer choices were above average, with the common domestics of course - however - with a few local brews added in. This made the difference between having two beers to having none for me as I am a beer snob! The menu here is great, whether it's the "regular" (busy night) or "limited" (slow night) menu. Our limited menu offered a nice variety of burgers/sandwiches, a few salads, soups, and some nice appetizers and sides. I chose the haddock sandwich and fries. The haddock was fried and crispy, and had a nice remoulade sauce. I asked for more sauce for a dip on each bite. The fries are awesome! Probably double fried or battered cause they were really thick and crispy. The rest of our order was a Salmon topped Salad, Cajun Shrimp topped salad, and all-american cheeseburger. The salads were nicely done spring greens and not all cheap iceberg lettuce. The burger was handmade and not generic, which is important to anyone who wants quality. Prices are average, some low cost plates and some higher, but the menu reflects this. You're not gonna pay $20 for a burger, but maybe a steak. This is acceptable as the atmosphere and location must've cost the owners more than a small storefront would. All in all, I enjoy coming here and recommend it to someone looking for a good meal off the beaten path. Enjoy! read more

One hour and forty minute wait for food, poor over all service. My French onion soup was salty for me, and I'm a guy who adds salt to cup of noodle. Strip steak was really tough to cut through, much more connective tissue than I'm used to. read more
