| - Riverbend Station, to me, reminds me of the pubs I use to frequent in NW Ontario. It is down to earth, unpretentious, and it has a fairly eclectic crowd. When you walk in, it is generally a blend of young and old, and blue collar and white color. I love the mix of folks here.
Despite its rustic general appearance, I got more than I expected when I walked in, looked around and then popped open the menu.
They actually had a few wines - i got the Yellowtail Shiraz Cab and it was awesome! Many pubs that I go into are big on beer, thin on wine. I was happy with the selection here.
The menu also had 13-14 different kinds of salads (yes really!), along with lots of healthy options. I love my pub food, but I also like to have a choice, so I can decide whether to be bad, or good.
The pub also has specials all the time. I have seen signage on 18th Street letting me know about Steak Sandwich specials, which is always a hit with this girl!
The only downside to this pub, is that it is jam packed! It is tough to get a table and parking can even be a nightmare at times.
However, this neighborhood pub is definately worth a second look, or even a third look... :)
