Hidden Gem to catch a Summer's Breeze! If you want to chill on the river, this is the place! Huge indoor and outdoor seating areas, great dock space to pull your boat in and enjoy a few beverages and a meal (you can even call in ahead and grab and go! Live music Every Saturday night in the Spring & Summer.

This was an awesome laid back place on the river. Staff was super friendly, the owner was friendly, everyone was working their butss off. There is plenty of space if you have a big group. You can dock and get food also. Food was good. Their Cincinnati chili is legit and definitely worth making a trip here for. Watch the hill on the way in and out. It's a bit steep!

Loved my visit here!!! The view was great and relaxing. Typical bar food type restaurant. The fish, onion rings and fried pickles were excellent. Waiter was friendly! Can’t wait to come back!

Great service and really good meals. The view from the deck of the river is relaxing. The fish, fries and onion rings were all served hot and were tasty. Easiest access is by boat docking just off the deck. The access is steep but manageable from the street and parking lot.

My first time here accompanied by my girlfriend, who has frequented here in the past. We did a 2x date on a Saturday night. We had a blast! We got to sit outside (missed the rain) and still benefit from the live band inside. The food was quick and delicious. We did have a delay in getting our checks, but no worries that night. We enjoyed the night! They had a vegetarian entree and several veggie apps. There were NA beers available as well. We will be back!
