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.

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.....

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.
