Great food, I accidentally left my invisible retainers and the staff was smart to not throw them away, saved them for me to pick up. Their tater tots taste great with the bacon jelly burger!

This is a great place to dine with kids. Always busy but not uncomfortably crowded. Picturesque on the river. We were able to book a table the night before right next to the play ground. The food/beverages are always delicious and service is friendly and quick. Always a favorite with our family.
Vegetarian options: Soup of the day is usually vegetarian. Plenty of vegetarian baked pies, quiches, salads etc Most not dairy milk options available for coffee.
