Took nearly an hour to get food served on a Saturday lunchtime. Wasn't terribly busy but bar staff were a total cluster xxxk. Food when it arrived was actually very good indeed. Our server could sense our disappointment and took a beer off the bill (Thanks)
Nice location, great kitchen staff putting out good food, but severely let down by slooooow service out front.
Great food, nice selection of beer, and friendly staff.
Nice atmosphere, Lackadaisical Service, pricey drinks & food, food was horrible- misrepresented on menu, came out with cold fries, hard undercooked veggies & meat, very disappointed!
No one at our table of 6 will return!
If you have to eat here, stick with the pub grub, burgers, wings, etc.....
Fun place tho play bar trivia, great selection of beers, and one of the best burgers in western NY.
Only went for drinks but the service was great, the atmosphere was casual and the price was reasonable.
Good was good and so was the atmosphere, loved sitting in front of the fireplace
Friendly and prompt service in a historic train station.
This is a cute little bar and restaurant right next to the ice rink. It's a great place to hang out while your waiting for a game or to grab a bite with the team afterward. The staff is very friendly and they are able to handle an entire hockey team with ease. The food is delicious and there is something for every palate.
Burgers put of this world. Atmosphere just relaxed, a great place to unwind.
Great casual dining. Beautiful outdoor seating. Full menu and bar list.
Unique venue. Good menu selections. Try the beef on wick - awesome. Our server today was excellent, courteous and friendly.

Riley station has upped their game since I was last there! Full compliment of local beer and nice portions of beautifully presented and we'll prepared food. Burger was huge and prepared as ordered, Medium rare. The curly fries were interesting shape and cooked crisp and served hot.
Fish tacos for my friend and they were delicious too. Small fingers of crispy battered fish topped with crunchy Sriracha slaw and double taco and flour tortillas shell. We dined out back in the glassed in enclosure overlooking evergreens and green space. It will be lovely in the summer. Nice to have more classy options to dine.

Met friends for lunch. Service and food excellent. We had beef on deck with fries. Definitely will stop here for lunch next time we are in East Aurora.
Nice cozy dining experience. Would recommend it highly.
Great food, excellent service just a little high priced.
HORRIBLE decision to go to Rileys !! After going with my friend on Thursday night, not only did I end up with a stomach ache from dinner,Saturday morning I realized I didn't get my credit card back after signing for it. When I called this Saturday morning ,a day and a half later,I was put on the phone with an incredibly rude female manager . When I politely asked if they had my credit card? I gave them my name and the description of my card. She said they probably destroyed it!! when I asked why they would destroy it?? And if she remembered destroying it or not? She was very rude, loud, argumentative, and elusive and would not tell me.. saying she couldn't remember if she did or not.. Even though we had closed the place on Thursday and it was Saturday morning.. I mean come on, how many credit cards do you destroy in one night??! Even after she told me she was the person that handled those types of things in the office. When I asked why would you destroy it? She rudely answered well what would you like me to do with it!?? I said I thought you would hold it for at least a few days.. I said I worked in the bar industry and we have never destroyed a credit card when someone leaves it there?? Then she replied rudely again and raising her voice its not my fault you left your credit card somewhere!.. I gave her a few choice words and hung up on IT...I will never dine there again !!Riley's sucks!!!# ..BEWARE...don't forget your property...or Rielys will destroy it!!!..NOT JUST RETURN IT...I didn't want to go there in the first place and gave it one last chance. HORRIBLE decision to go to Rileys!
Love old train stations and when they're still in use..very cool space and drinks are good too ;) Staff was friendly and quick!
Cool place. Nice waitress and atmosphere. Food is good not great but a little on the expensive side for the fare.
We go here 4 to 5 times a year and have always had good food,drink and service..the staff has always been helpful and to us that is important
Keep up the great work!
Bar can be overcrowded at times, but great food, nice ambiance.
This was our first stop on the Delicious East Aurora food tour. Excellent food and we even hot to meet the chef! The restaurant is very nice!
After walking East Aurora, we decided to come here for lunch. Their French Onion soup is always delicious. So were the rest of our meals. We always tend to stop here to eat when we come to town.
Great service and really great food. Always a treat to go there.
Upon our arrival we were told it would be about 15 minutes for a table for 6. We were finally seated 45 minutes later. The entrees were quite pricey given the portion size. Took forever for the food to come. Ordered the marinated chicken breast, served cold. Waitress apologized and said she'd have them make another. She never took my plate, returned 10 minutes later with a chicken breast on a small plate. The whole dinner was cold, I don't understand why she would not have taken the whole plate back to the kitchen to begin with. At that point I told her to forget it since everyone was done eating except for one other person in out party that ordered a piece of bread with some dry Cole slaw on it with a side of cold French fries.
If you decide to dine here, turn around at the door and cross the street to Arribas Tortilla for some great food and drink. Won't be returning to Riley St Station.
Good food, good selection of beers on tap,.good service.
The food was AMAZING! Its very well priced, you get a large amount, and its delicious. My only complaint would be that the service was a bit slow.
Food was very good. Service was excellent. A little expensive though.
Ok bar food. Close to ice rink next door. Very expensive for typical pub grub.
Great place! Kind of pricey if you're there for drinks.
Yummy but pricey for the food offered. Good and cordial staff.
Bar service was terrible. I ordered a PLAIN cheeseburger. Stressed nothing on it but the cheese. Came out not only fully dressed but burnt as well. Husband ordered nachos which arrived with the melted cheese fully hardened. New bartender at change of shift was no better than the first one. Sad when Pizza Hut would have been a much better choice for lunch!
Good food, drinks and atmosphere. The service was also very fast and the waitress was friendly. Would highly recommend this place and will return.
First time here, burger was awesome and so were the chicken wings!!!
Great service and meals. Nice location and ambience. I will be back on my next trip to visit my family.
Really good spot in East Aurora. Stopped here on our way to Buffalo for a Bills weekend. Very large, nice bar. Food was good and it was a fun atmosphere. I'd go back again if I was in East Aurora.
My daughter went with my parents and absolutely loved it. I have yet to try but definitely will soon. She said "it was awesome".
Loved the atmosphere of the bar, decent selection of drinks.
Wonderful atmosphere, friendly staff.. and a menu that is deliciously off the beaten path..making this a unique spot for lunch or dinner
Just in for a beer stop. Ok selection. Nothing outstanding. Haven't eaten there recently but it was quite good. Rating would have been higher had I eaten.
Friendly staff, quaint ambiance and food was delicious.
The staff was friendly and the food was good. My only complaint is the water glass the waitress brought me clearly had lipstick on it still.
Great scenery..service...food.
.prices! Love this place!
Went there after the East Aurora car show. Riley's had a margarita party. Now granted, the bar was busy. But the female bartender was just plan nasty! Now making a margarita is a little time consuming, but waiting at least 20 minutes for a drink is unacceptable. After finally getting her attention, my wife said, politely "When you have a chance, could we get another drink".She said " I don't think so"! We left! If your staff can't handle a Margarita night, because your bartender can't handle it, or is incompetent, then have a shot and beer night! Will never go there again. I strongly suggest everyone else does the same. Many other places to go to in East Aurora !!!
Visited here last night. While the food and drinks were good, our waitress was incredibly rude, from the start. She handed us our menus and told us to hurry up and order because the kitchen was "pretty much staying open for us". We ordered wings to keep it easy, knowing that it was late. After she brought them out, we had each had one or two wings, she came back and asked if we wanted a box. We told her we were still eating. Five minutes go by and she's back again. So we agreed to the box and assumed the restaurant was closing, since it was 1030. She brought us the check then told us to "hurry up and pay because they were closing". So we did. But when we walked through the patio, the bar was open and busy and the front patio was also full. I asked the bartender how long they were open and was told until at least 1. Awful service.
Place was cool inside but the prices are high for the food. Service was fine. Good drink selection.
