Good food. Would have been 5 stars but waitress was a little rude!
Rivertap Bar & Restaurant
The food here is so good! The Thai peanut wrap and chipotle chicken wrap are both to die for!! We have been here twice in the last month and will definitely be back.
High end fish and chips...really unexpected and excellent
Great food. Amazing atmosphere. Cheerful staff. Adorable patio. And most importantly DOG FRIENDLY.
Gone here a few times for date night and i always get the BBQ pulled pork. It's drooltastic! Servers make great drinks, cooks make fantastic food, and the environment is friendly!
2nd time here. Will not go a 3rd time. 1 hour to get a sandwich.
Nice outdoor seating, good beer selection, and the food is great. Perfect place to stop after hiking along the Columbia River Gorge, very easy to reach and find from I5 and pretty easy to get back onto I5.
Great food and atmosphere. Friendly staff. One of the best burgers I've ever had.
Great food and drink, downside is they are always crowded and the bands are horrible for such a small place.
Justin was our amazing server, offered taste tests of beers to find the right smooth dark beer...and the food was so good.
This Place is awesome! Great Food , Music, and prices!
The ambience, food, and drinks were all excellent. Super friendly waitress. I'm so sad that I don't live nearby, and will definitely return on future trips!
It's a alright place to eat and get a drink,beer or soft drink
Pretty good place, bloody great pizza Beers for a brewery were only good - not great Just my humble opinion Real good service from the very busy gent running it that evening.
The food, ambiance, and service were great. Decent beer selection, too. Really glad we stopped here.
Had lunch with our daughter, it was awesome. Service was too.
Their salad was made with weeds for salad greens. Not good! Reuben okay. Hot!!!
Food was spot on delicious, super fresh vegetables, you know its good when the tomato on the burger tastes fresh out of the garden. French fries are delicious, and the atmosphere is awesome for a pub. I like how roomy it is, music is fun and calm (for lunch time at least)
We were heading west on our social distancing road trip, and needed to stop for food. The place we originally found was closed, so we went across the street to Rivertap. The waitress was extremely personable, and the menus immediately grabbed our attention. We ordered a top sirloin burger, fish and chips, and two orders of beer mac n cheese. It was some of the best mac and cheese we had ever had: well-seasoned, with a mild kick, and we regretted we couldn't take more of it with us upon leaving. The raspberry lemon drop a member of our party ordered was also delicious. This place is a must-stop, for those living in town, or just passing by!
Friendly staff, ice cold brews and great food! Nice lunch stop .
Had the sirloin burger, good but a little dry. Great fries and atmosphere. Moderate prices with good service.
Great food, atmosphere and the staff was fantastic.
Service has really improved! Cant beat wing night and their huge steins. Great outdoor seating and plenty of indoor including room for the kiddos at all hours. Limited beer selection but they have one of almost everything.
Moderate priced good food and spirits. Noisy at times
very good atmosphere, waiters were very friendly, food was excellent, a little pricey but worth it
The food was okay, there was not a lot of variery of beer selection.
Friendly staff, seating suits drinking or dining. Eric is rad.
Our county just opened back up for in person dining and their food was amazing and great service
Great beer...good food....Live Loud music...what else is there..? Cool atmosphere. ..local musicians and singers participating in open mic jam night...
Great staff, location and menu. Could be warmer inside because everyone was forced to sit outside, due to the extreme low thermostat temperature.
Waitress took 30 minutes to pick up my card, other than that, outstanding food. The salami sandwich (made with local salami) is probably in my top three best sandwiches I ve ever had.
Great food, great staff, great setting; and an awesome selection of craft beers, ales and wines
Awesome food. Great live music. Sports on TVs. This is one of the better places to hang out in The Dalles.
We drove thru The Dalles on our way to Portland. Happy to find a local spot that provided a drive-thru option. We ordered the Kobe Sliders, Fish and Chips and a Grilled Cheese sandwich. All were delish. There were ony two issues: they were out of regular fries and could only offer sweet potato fries. The sweet potato fries were over cooked, so two disappointments. I had a salad with my sliders and it was fresh and tasty. All in all I would recommend the Rivertaap
Here St Patricks night and it was busy so I will give them a pass on slow service because they were all working hard to get stuff out. Good Vibe. Great hometown jams by Nolan and Alan. Everyone seems to be enjoying the night singing along with the entertainment.
Stopped by while traveling and got a growler of IPA to enjoy when I got home. Your beer is amazing and I can't wait to travel through the area again. Worth the stop!
Great people, great atmosphere, and great food. I ate the most flavorful house burger I've had in along time with their chowder. Delicious!
Service was a bit slow and the food wants to be good, it just misses the mark. I tried the cannonball which is a burger with pulled pork on top. The pork was good, but the burger seemed like a frozen patty they had to cook well done. It was lifeless as far as burgers go. They do have a full bar and ok selection of beers and ciders which is great. But only two bathrooms which seems like not enough. Overall it wasn't bad, but there is room for improvement.
Terrible service and terrible food. I haven't returned in over two years. There are just too many other places to choose from. Honestly, I'd rather eat at McDonalds.
The best part if this place is the live music. If you're working in the Dalles Oregon and have desire to get out if your hotel room this place has good music and over price food and beers. The menu is small and portions smaller and bill is shocking.
Unfortunately the service is what ruined this experience for me. It was a recommendation from a friend so I had high hopes. First off it was pouring down rain, we walked in and the server who also took about 10min before asking if we wanted menus outside? Like ummm no? I'm assuming he asked this as I had my service animal with me. He then said dogs are not allowed without even asking me if he was a service dog. I told him he was and he asked for paperwork. I showed him his badge and we sat down. After that we ordered our food and never saw our server again. We wait and waited and waited and had to flag down another worker who kept walking past to even get our bill. The food was just okay the fry's were probably the best part but I won't be coming back after that terrible service.
The chipotle chicken wrap is fresh and the sweet potato fries are a perfect side. Can t wait to drive through and visit again.
The food is ok, not awful, not great. The wait staff are friendly, but seem to disappear. It is always strange when you don't see them waiting other tables, but that don't stop by the table for more than 20 minutes. All in all the experience left me disappointed.
I sat at the bar and had great service. The standard American fare menu was well prepared.
Portland prices, terrible quality burger. I was blessed with 2 quarter size rounds of Roma tomato, shredded lettuce and a low quality beef that looks kind of white-ish when cooked, no discernable seasoning... Good bacon on it... But that was the only redeeming part. Excellent fries. Good IPA but the berry cider tasted like a weird wine cooler. We left partially finished plates, the waitress comped one burger. This wasn't just a bad experience, this is a structured "new" menu that demands very high prices for low quality, corner cutting food. This place was good six months ago, not anymore.
Excellent food, and we had a variety! From burgers, wraps, to pasta. All was a hit. The best part was Raspberry Lemon Drop Martini. Excellent with a home made twist!
Meatloaf!!! I'm not able to articulate how good the meatloaf was. I think it was a special or seasonal thing; but if you see it on the menu when you're there, get it. It's worth it.
Not enough staff and wait is sometimes long but it's worth it for the delicious food.
This is going to be the new pitstop on the way to and from Portland. Great food and beverages...including driver beverages.
Music, drinks, fellowship always a wonderful experience
Food is so tasty, and the beers were both great (one IPA, one Stout)... service was excellent from being seated, to paying the bill..and that was during the 6oclock hour on a Saturday after Vivid restrictions! We'll be back and recommend this place.
Another awesome Sunday jam session. Highly recommend it if you appreciate great music.
Great atmosphere, decent service, most of the food was fine ... just don't order fish and chips.
Nice people. Ok pub grub. Lots of Brew selections. After all, it is in OR.
Good food, has some live music which can be very loud and cancel any talking to people at your table, great selection of beer and cider.
Live music, good food and drinks. Friendly, efficient staff! Great place to enjoy a Friday evening!
Good food, great staff and a good assortment of beer
The staff were awesome, and the food was delicious!
Minnestroni soup was made in-house. Crisp veggies and beans were not over cooked. Not microwaved Food. Lots of vegetarian/vegan options!! Beer good. Phelps creek Pinot noir was very nice! Very good service. Try them out!
Always fantastic food. The thai wrap and the chipotle chicken wrap are to die for! The kid's burgers are GIGANTIC!!
Always fun to stop here. The food is great and the beer is too!
great food great music and good weather ! nice outdoor seating and music!! aolo man playing guitar and drums and singing
Quality food at an affordable price. Their fries are killer and they change the menu frequently so there is usually something new to try.
Great food and beer selection! I stop here for lunch every time I come through the Dalles.
Good food, good beer, great atmosphere. Friendly staff. Only negative was the kitchen had a long wait when I was there. I'll probably go back the next time I'm in The Dalles.
I worked there for a brief period of time. Not only were they discriminatory, but I saw mice on two occasions darting between the liquor bottles. Fake people and an unsanitary environment.
Lazy host great atmosphere mediocre food completely overpriced
Got there. Thought it was neat. Sat down. Waitress with skates spilled water on us. Just saying the food better be great.
So busy dealing with distancing. Great job! Fantastic menu
Server said she would come back to see if my drink was to spicey ( didn't happen) exchange for a Margarita ( didn't happen). My burger was well done( asked for mr) and dry. Someone else checked me out. So different from my first experience. Think that was a last for me. Not cheers.
Chill vibe downtown with friendly service. Had the Mac and cheese, it was just ok. Good beer selections!
Not the greatest beer or food but it's a nice place
Surprisingly great food selection. Lots of beer on tap but all IPA and dark, no amber or reds.
Service was ok. Fish and chips was recommended to us. We tried it but fish was dry and not very tasty.
Horrible service. Gave them multiple chances and the service never improves. Never comes to check on us, didnt bring salad, no apologies, forgot extra sauce. Had to flag server down to get any kind of service. Definitely wouldnt recommended going here
I went there with someone that has never been before expecting a great experience and it turned terrible as soon as we chose a spot to sit down. A waitress came up to me and very rudely said um ya so this is your bill from two months ago that you didn t pay and I KNOW it was you. This bill was dated back two months ago, I have never seen this waitress in my life nor would I have ordered what was on the bill. She then described who I was with and kept telling me she knows it was me. After putting the old tab down on the table so we could finish our food, we got our final tab which included the old tab. Not only was the staff very rude about this whole situation, they had no right to just assume it was me. It was in fact not me but they wouldn t take no for an answer. I was embarrassed in front of my friend for them pushing the old tab onto OUR new tab. This wouldn t have gone so badly if the staff was at least nice about it but they weren t. I will NEVER go back because of the way they treated me. And the other person I was with had a terrible first experience who will also never go back because of that.
