Just tried this place. Kind of unassuming from the outside. Inside is very nicely appointed. Staff is super friendly, and you can tell care about JP's. The food was excellent! The weekend smoker/BBQ is GREAT!! It's nice to find a gem like this with good food, drinks, and service. I will be back.

Great brunch spot- we have come here multiple times for “Sunday funday” and we love the bloody Mary’s and the brunch menu. The “brunch burger” and home Fries are amazing. Family friendly establishment. Always clean. The service has exceeded expectation as well. Always treated well and have good conversation with the polite kind and knowledgable staff.

Waitress was wonderful and on top of everything with our group. The place was very clean and nice atmosphere. Definitely will be going back. Food tasted great! The bathroom was pretty nasty. Both toilets are old, handle broken or didn't work, etc. Very disappointed in bathroom. Appearance from the outside, I wouldn't have known much. Not too appealing. Great food! Great service!

Craft beer low prices and they have music bingo. I have been in the food and beverage industry for over twenty years I've worked with Chef's from All over the world and I must say I have never enjoyed food this much I'm Completely astonished. In my opinion this is not a Bar this is a five star restaurant with a vibrant atmosphere music for all ages. Hats off to staff chef's and owners you have out done yourself and thank you for keeping cost at a price everyone can afford food of a life time. Down River has a new treasure.

I've been here a few times and really enjoyed the experience. The drinks are priced according to supply and demand according to the board. It's kind of like the stock exchange. So you can drink beer that's very reasonably priced. As far as food, it all seems very fresh and homemade. I've yet to be disappointed. I've tried their wings, which were pretty good. They weren't the best I've ever had but still good quality and flavorful. I've also tried their fish and their chicken breasts. These two dishes were great. If I remember correctly, I think the fish was cod. The chicken breast dinner was boneless and came with mashed potatoes. It was very filling and had lots of flavor. Definitely worth the price too. The atmosphere is pretty nice too. There is a replica of a trolley located on one of the walls. Overall, their beer deals and quality food would definitely bring me back to this place.
