Oh Riverwood...
I am right around the corner, so this is my go to spot. They have really great food and a ridiculously cheap happy hour. Monday thru Friday from 4-9 all of their pints are $2 and they have a great selection on tap. And to take the sting out of Cleveland sports, they have $1 Coors Lights during all Tribe, Browns, & Cavs game, so by the end of the game, you don't care who won or lost.
Their tacos are probably the 2nd best on Detroit Ave. They are HUGE and you can get them any day of the week. On Wednesdays though, they are only $1. The beef is good, but if you're looking for something different, the chicken ones are spot on! They also have their award winning wings, Sweet Heat. They are perfect, and on Thursdays and during sports games, they are 40 cents.
Between the beers, tacos, and wings, I could live at the Riverwood. I might get very fat, but I'd be happy dammit! I frequent this place mostly for some day drinking or Browns games (when you'll more often than not be Kickin' it with Kenny), as it gets pretty crowded on weekend nights, and seems to lose its charm. There's a jukebox, pool table in the back, and the smallest restroom I have ever seen.
The old guys at the bar I work at like to tell me stories of the years they spent here when it was the Telstar. I love that this place has history, and remains a favorite in Lakewood.
