Finally got to check out this place! We couldn't have picked a better night either, the weather was beautiful The fire ban stopped us from enjoying the fire pit, but we will definitely have to get out there again to experience it . Our server was Tiffanie and she was just the best, full of conversation and knowledge about the place. We had the perfect table along the river, lights were strung up at the tables for when the sun went down. If you dont get to sit along the river, you can sit under the beautiful huge pavillion they have. It's all wood and when I say it's gorgeous, I mean it! There is a bar there also. We stayed for a few hours and enjoyed the entertainment and had a few more drinks after dinner. We had the brisket blazing fries for an appetizer and then I had the chicken parm as my entree, Casey had the Piggy Pile-up sandwich. Everything was very good! They also have a game room with a pool table, juke box and games of chance. You could easily spend a few hours here. These guys are awesome, I just love reading their posts. for the food, for the service and for the environment, just loved it! Keep up the great work, The River Walk Saloon read more

The food was gross. We drove by this place and I said to my husband it looks like one of those places that are nicer than what the food will taste and that's exactly what it was. I ordered the tacos and asked for ground beef instead of the steak. And that was ok. My husband got the smoked wings and said they were gross. He got garlic parm and was not impressed. He loves smoked food but he said these had no flavor. It was freezing cold inside. The waitress was super friendly and was a pleasure. But I should have went to the cheese steak place that we were originally going to go to. Now I'm upset that I'm going home and spent $50 on absolutely nothing. Do yourself a favor and keep driving. read more

Very good food, huge portions. Wait staff is friendly and attentive. Prices are just right, except for the Old Fashioned, that was a bit high. We thoroughly enjoyed dinner there tonight!! read more

We actually pulled in and saw a hundred motorcycles and turned around and left thinking it would be crowded. The place we went to as an alternative was closed so we went back. Hostess was super friendly and seated us right by the "river" not crowded at all inside! Rum runner seemed to be orange/peach slushie. Didn't taste any Malibu at all in it. No price listed. Nachos were very good but not for $18! Ribs were delicious and tender and juicy - great smoky flavor. Fries were crisp. Smoked wings were very good but sitting in a pool of bbq sauce that wasn't anything special. Overall we would go back but it's pricey. read more

Meet our new friend Roger. Let me tell you a lil story. It is human nature for people to only post reviews when they have something negative to say. That is not the case here! This past Sat, Jenn and I decided to go for a ride. It was overcast so we checked the weather, not once, not twice, but about a dozen times between us.No rain in the forecast at all. We had an amazing ride up to Jim Thorpe where we had lunch and took in the sites. Just before we were going to leave we heard a huge clap of Thunder and the couple next to us told us a severe thundetsrorm was coming. We looked at the weather and south looked good so we made the decision to try to get south before the storm hit. BAD MOVE! As we climbed out of Jim Thorpe, the skies opened. It was probably the worst rain and wind I ever rode in certainly without any rain gear. It progressively got worse to the point I couldn't see... the rain was too hard, wind gusting, and getting hammered as cars hit puddles next us. We pulled into River Walck for shelter. There was a group of people calling to us and ushering us under cover and into shelter. This is when Roger, the manager and Christina a server stepped up to help. Roger immediately said let me get you some dry clothes and offered to dry the clothes we were wearing. Knowing we were miserable and Jenn was still hyper ventilating, Christina got us drinks to calm our nerves. Over the next hour, our clothes were dried and we were engaged in friendly conversation. The skies cleared, they gave us our clothes back and wished us a safe ride. It is really great to know there are still good people out there. Thank you Roger, Christina, and River Walck. We will be back! read more

I LOVE this place!! The food is Always good, we love the addition in the back it's so way cool like sitting outside in winter! And the bar in there has the most Davy barkeep that knows her business and makes the best BLOODYMARY I've ever had!! Best of all my pocketbook doesn't have a cardiac over the prices!! Very reasonable! read more

The food at this place is bad and also very overpriced. The meat that is used for things like pork sandwiches, taco salads, ribs etc...is almost always dry and lacking of any flavor. The last couple times I've been here, the server has started off by telling us that they are out of numerous items. How can you have such a small selection of items and still frequently be out of them? I wouldn't mind paying $15-$18 for burgers if they are good, but the quality of the food does not warrant the menu prices. When this place first opened, the menu was huge and the food was great, and it slowly has gone downhill since. At this point, I feel like they don't even care. As other people have mentioned, it's probably a decent place to have a drink on a nice day, but go somewhere else to eat. read more

this place definitely doesn't deserve more than 2 stars. i don't recommend you come here unless it's just to drink. enjoy these pros and cons. pros: - the outdoor area was beautiful. - the fries were perfect. - chicken tenders were fine, but also how could they mess that up? - the jumbo pretzel was good. - $4 vodka drinks! cons: - the chicken tacos had canned chicken and 0 flavor. had to douse that in ranch just to get through eating them. - that was a sorry excuse for loaded nachos. chunks of tomato were huge, so many black beans, liquid cheese instead of real melted cheese. proportions were all off. the guac was okay, however. - the fish sandwich came out with no coleslaw despite saying it was included. but the fish tasted okay. read more

Was grossly disappointed. Outside seating available in April but no indoor service? How is this a sensible business model? Server was friendly, but service was slow. Dirty Martini was undrinkable, consisting of just olive brine. Could not see thru the martini glass, no trace of vodka. Keibasa sandwich was two hot dogs, split in half. TexMex Burger was decent as was the Harley Hen sandwich. Fries were decent, just cold. Salsa was watered down with ketchup. Do not recommend and will not go back. read more

Is this place good? Not really... BUT there are a few positives 1. The outdoor pavilions are really nice and a great place to have a beer 2. The basics are pretty good, Pretzels and fries are good, Kielbasa sandwich is pretty good 3. Bartenders were attentive and delivered the food relatively quickly Negatives: 1. Ribs were BAD! Dry and chewy with some sweet baby rays 2. Mac and cheese was really bad, dry and mealy I would come back for appetizers and a good beer but I wouldn't order anything complicated. read more

Vibe is cool. Love the outdoor seating. The food is so, so, so bad though. Completely devoid of any seasoning. I've given it many chances just to see if they were having an off day or menu item. Nope, across the board terrible. How can you make a smash burger bland?!? Since I shared my saltiness, can you please throw it on the mac salad or something? If you need a chef, just me know. read more

We went for a quick bit to eat and the food was good. We had chicken fingers and fries we split it ! My new thing is it clean- and eating was outside was nice open air! Will be back soon!! The location for this place js also perfect for dogs! They are dog friendly!!! Guess what we have a 13 week old pup and she loved it ! It was a hot day out and we took her on the path down to the creek why we waited for our food My son is 12 and we played shuffleboard too while we waited. Dog got offered water more then we did! Haha Ok wasn't expecting this but the staff was amazing! People eating were kind and nice to my pup! Thank you! read more

Ate here on our way back to New York. The half chicken was very good, the meat was juicy and tender. Probably the best half chicken I've ordered at a bbq place. My fiancé ordered the half rack of ribs and his were tender and tasty. We also ordered 2 beers which were delivered to the table quickly. We also tried the fried green beans for a starter which were served with a ranch dipping sauce. Overall everything was very good we had an excellent experience. I also believe the prices were very reasonable for the amount of food we received. Would have spent way more dining in New York. read more

Great ribs good food. Can't wait to go back. Keep up the great work I would eat here everyday if I lived closer.

I do not give many 5 stars, but I'm taking a lot of things into account for this one to get it. You really have to make this place a destination stop! It's not just a "biker bar". I have been here numerous times and have never seen people have any issues! No biker "colors". There is a person in the parking lot to help find parking (which makes it easier for sure). The food is very good! Today we got the loaded bacon fries, pork sandwich, nachos, and prime rib sandwich. It does get a little busy, but who can blame it...it's a great atmosphere, great people and a great responsible time! Cannot wait to go here again. read more

Been here for over an hour , place is steady but not full. Took me re-asking the waitress for the drinks we ordered. I'm sorry but we are out of burger- that wipes out a good portion of the menu. The atmosphere is pleasant. When the food did arrive it was a good size portion and prepared well read more

Come here to get Covid. Wish there were negative stars. So....I've been here maybe 8 times over the last 4 years. Come here in the summer for the outdoor ambience, which is great. The food, always mediocre and this time just horrible. On top of that, no server, bartender, or customer was wearing a mask. They tell you over the phone that you have to follow the state's guidelines. The guidelines put in place to keep people from getting sick. Obviously they don't care about keep people, they don't care about service and they don't care about serving anything passing as food. AVOID THIS PLACE! read more

My dad wanted to stop here on our way home from a football game. I do not like bar food, but I figured I would get tacos since, how do you mess up tacos? The tortilla had hard edges, one taco was missing sauce, and the meat was burnt, mushy, and seasoning. I don't like giving bad reviews, but I know this place can do better. Also, the glasses hanging above the bar were visibly dirty. read more

I've been coming here a few times a year for what might be a decade. The outdoor environment and design of the facilities along a tributary waterway leading into the Lehigh River is really terrific. I've never thought the food quality (bbq meat) lived up to the expectations, and lately, this assessment is consistent with most others who've eaten here. I stopped here for for my first tap/draft beer in 5/2020 in first Covid opening, so fond memories. Tonight, service at picturesque outdoor bar was pitiful. The first behind bar: no hello, no smile, no thank you. I was wondering why it was about 20% full on an absolutely stunning late summer night? I can now guess. Owners: get back to basics on expectations for hospitality. Unacceptable and a detriment to your prosperity, and after investing so much time/effort/money into creating a special canvas. Update: as I paid my tab, I told the server they needed to do a better job of engaging with their customers. She gave me a blank stare, turned her back on me and walked away. Yes, I picked up the over-tip I was going to give anyway. I walked out. Owners: please educate these kids on "customer service". read more

Great atmosphere over a sprawling property. Filled with lots of friendly people and it's fun. But just go for drinks. As everyone says here the food is subpar at best read more

Dookie food. Just cool outside. Go for a drink or two but not if you're hungry. This town lacks decent food

The food is not bad, with happy servers this place might rate better. Nice place to sit outside and enjoy the weather. I have been here 7 times now. The nachos are good, the gumbo is great. Bottles of BBQ sauce are always sticky. Find happier people that have food service skills. read more

What a great place to hang out with family and friends. The food and service was extremely great. Indoor outdoor,also catering for special events. And also enjoyed sitting outside by the fire pits. read more

I never finish my fries at restaurants- but I ate every single one of their Bay fries!! great surprise after my burger. View was beautiful read more

Great dive bar with indoor and outdoor seating, and a huge deck overlooking the river. We stumbled upon Riverwalck while camping and visiting friends in the Poconos and couldn't have been much happier. He had some wings and I had chicken fingers and then we sat out in Adirondack chairs watching the river while listening to music on the speakers and enjoying some drinks. They have a great, laid back atmosphere and nobody rushed us or seemed to care that we just wanted to hang out and enjoy the scenery. I was a little less pleased with our second visit because the deck was packed with smokers, and the secondhand smoke definitely detracted from the fresh air and relaxing vibe. Maybe a certain section for smokers would help, instead of allowing it in the whole outdoor space? I know it's supposed to dissipate outside but you get 30-40 people and that's still a lot of smoke. read more

Lots of outdoor seating, fire pit. The seats are really uncomfortable. They were not serving tapped beers just mixed drinks and bottled beer, mostly domestic. Each table has a number assigned and that's what you use to order your food and drinks with at one of the bars, there are no waitresses. They do have runners serving food. So in our case where the burger was well instead of medium and the pork/kielbasa sandwich had no slaw as the menu read it should and the taco fries had no taco seasoning about them, they were quite bland. Basically your stuck with whatever and however they.give it to you. Again, I think this place gets packed due to ambiance more than it does quality of food and service. read more

Great staff, awesome atmosphere and good food. Good drink selection and the outdoor seating is great, right on the water and just overall a gun place to go. read more

I found this place while randomly driving from Jim Thorpe to my uncle's house in Newfoundland. It's now my absolute favorite bar. Food is very good and a big selection of stuff to drink. I had the "mountain man" wings and GF had chicken tenders. My wings were smokey and flavor was great. She was happy with the tenders. The inside of the bar looks like a cool biker enclave. Service was good. The outside has a big camp fire, a river, and tons of seating in wooden chairs. It's all integrated very well from inside to outside. There are several bars outside. There are speakers in the rocks which was real cool. We sat back, sipped a few drinks, and listened to some CCR while watching the river. Life is good! Definitely happy we stopped by on a total whim. I'll be stopping by every time I am passing through. Great scenery, nice people, fantastic BBQ... what more can you ask for? read more

Ok... this is a 2nd review/update. I spoke SO highly of these guys in the past, have been back 1/2 a dozen times, made excuse after excuse after excuse. This place needs to be avoided. The food is marginal at best (who the heck sells a garbage steak sandwich!?!). Had ribs that were tough to eat....they do burgers well, though (hard to mess THAT up). The food's not the issue, though....the attraction is of being near the river which overcomes the food's mediocrity.....it's the God-awful service that's the issue!! You'd THINK that because of covid and the lower attendance, servers would be "on top of it".... they're not. They're somewhat bitter that they have to work instead of joining ONLYFANS for that easy dough (they're not hot at all, but I'm told below-average-country-looking-dumpy broads can make money on there, so......). My last visit (I'm never returning) was bringing a group of people there.....we sat there for almost thirty minutes before I went to the bar asking if anyone was going to take our order.....I was told and I'm not making this up, I was told that she - the bartender - could take my order. I responded a little harshly, "ma'am....I've got a GROUP of people with me". She thought it through, realized I was getting irritated by her ambivalence and decided to actually do her job. I wanted to pay - just so I could express my disgust with her by leaving ZERO tip, but I had payed the previous 5 times....so my buddy paid. I begged him NOT to leave a tip, but I didn't see the final bill. If you go here, don't expect decent service.... they're too busy partying to notice you. Don't go for the food....it's high priced mediocrity....the only thing that saves them is: no other venue smokes their food and the ambience. Other than that AVOID THIS PLACE.... you'll get better service and food in either direction. read more

I was there over the weekend, and the food was pretty amazing. We had nachos and wings. It was really fast even though the place was packed. The vibe of the place is great. You can sit and overlook the water. tMy only complaint is the parking. Since there are a lot of motorcycles, it was hard to get our truck around the parking lot. read more

This is an okay place, awesome outdoor and what not. I'm writing because they charged me an additional 41 dollars after incorrectly charging me 60 dollars and won't pick up their phones. All things aside I had a decent time here, decent food, decent vibe but what kind of shady bs establishment doesn't have an operable phone? Or won't respond on Facebook or messenger? This is terrible. My bank will take care of it, already submitted a claim, but it would be nice if manager could maybe step up and be easier to contact. So now I have to go through this whole load of crap and be returned with nothing. read more

Like a fool we've been here for a second time and the service still sucks and the food still sucks. Not only sucks but grossly over priced. The place is nothing but a geriatric biker bar. read more

Love this place, cool crowd and great music, cute waitresses and barenders the food is awesome,no matter what you get it's always good...

Freakin Awesome. The pulled pork piggy sandwich was the bomb! I will definitely make this a trip!

Since I first went to their opening up until recent they've vastly improved and adjusted to serving great food. At first, they had a Tex-Mex ad but wasn't close to Tex Mex. Now, they stuck to hood Ol' BBQ and other staples that they have clearly made excellent and their own. Along with a great atmosphere where you can relax and enjoy outdoor lounge area; by a fire pit or surrounded by nature, it's a way to go if you're looking for a change of dining experience from the stuffy indoors restaurants. There's a nice bar area where you can also choose to enjoy open to the outside or inside and enjoy watching sports or other on their screen set-up. Overall it's worth the visit. Just expect the prices within mid-range $$$. Otherwise worth it. read more

2 WORDS- FUCKEN DISGUSTIN now y'all before I give u my honest review about my last visit ... let me tell ya this place used to be one of my faves. It was worth the drive to bumble fuck just to eat tacos (which ain't on the menu anymore smh) and enjoy the river walck saloon atmosphere. Went here last weekend n all I can say is this place went straight to hell in a bucket baby. We're living in the time of CORONA n I thought dining on the outdoor patio was a safe option....IT WASNT!!! Not a mask in sight- not even the people serving me my damn drinks n food. Was already disappointed that they didn't have my got damn tacos on da menu ... so I ordered a taco salad. My 15 yr old boy server stumbled around the patio searching for my table ... breathing his corona breath on my salad the whole time. When my food finally got there tasted like ... honestly nothing... don't even remember that flavorless sorry excuse for a meal. Let's put it simply .. it fuckin sucked. Not a single server or bartender was wearing a mask. Well they had a mask but it was down around their damn neck. Word of advice y'all- masks work better when you wear them around ur mouth n nose... just sayin I was so grossed out by the lack of hygiene and the shitty salad I couldn't wait to make my way past the countless motorcycles and fuckin book it on my Harley back to tatamy. I never drove so fast in my life. Fuck this place. Stay safe y'all Peace n blessings Xoxo TAMMY read more

This was our first visit and it was great!! They were very COVID sensitive so I have no idea why all these other visitors down graded them! It is very unfair to judge a restaurant by who they support politically! It's a shame that is what this country has become. This place had good food and good service. Coming back soon! read more

Took a ride on the bike today from the Scranton area hoping to perhaps sit outside and enjoy a meal. We have been there many times before and always had an enjoyable experience. Today, hundreds of cars in the parking lot. Absolutely no social distancing whatsoever. People in line to get in, literally on top of each other. No crowd control whatsoever and not a mask in sight. I am so disappointed in the lack of responsibility and respect for people that want to patronize your establishment appropriately. Total disservice to your community and we will not go back and will spread the word of your irresponsible management of the situation. read more

If you want a great rating then serve the ppl great ! Always wanted to check this place out looks like a nice place. First off Service Blew there ! 20 minutes to get drinks ... 45 minutes for a plate of nachos appetizers??? If your busy. Too bad hire more help. We had to yell out to waitress several times to get anything. Not my problem especially I am paying the bill. Anyway dinner finally came out over an hour after we sat down. This is unacceptable... remember I'm paying for this service n dinner ! One n done do not recommend to anyone unless they change. read more

You should defiantly check this place out. All the out side seating right next to the river with the various fire pits and the rustic look of everything promotes a good relaxing vibe. Drinking beer around the fire pit at night promotes a really interesting night with interesting people also. Plus the waitresses are HOT. The service was very good also. I almost love this place if it wasn't for the quality of the food. It wasn't nothing horrible but it was just ok and for a really cool place like this I feel the the food should be able to blow you away just as much as the country/biker style opulence of this place. I had 3 or 4 different samples of various platters only because I bother everybody in my party to give me some of theirs so I got a good taste of what they have to offer. read more
