As a handicapped individual i was holding the arm of a friend as i walked into the establishment. Apparently this is why the bartender (and self proclaimed manager) refused to serve me as my friends played pool. When I explained my disability she simply stated she was going to call the police. I looked her dead in the eye for 3 minutes after telling i was waiting for an apology i never got. I simply left the establishment never to return and to ensue my fellow handicapped friends follow suit. You should be ashamed of yourself!

This was my go-to bar when I lived in the Grand Rapids area. The staff knows how to adapt to every customer's personality and make them feel welcomed. I have also always appreciated the good food and drink knowledge of most of the bartenders.

River city is the place to be for good drinks, atmosphere, and fun. If you don't go to river city saloon; your integrity as an individual is compromised.

Its a ok dive bar, the bartender was lowkey rude but I understand that its late at night and a lot of drunk dudes are pain in the ass to deal with

If you advertise karaoke on Thursdays, you should have karaoke.
I’ve been coming to this bar since I was a kid (with family obviously, and I’m 35 now). After a 4 year break I came back and while it looks a bit new on the inside it still has the atmosphere and friendliness I remember and love, even under the new ownership. I came on a Thursday, I had the olive burger and it was the best olive burger I’ve ever had. The bartender was awesome (she had purple hair with pink/hot pink in front, I’m not the best at identifying unique colors).

Only had drinks but it felt pretty basic as far as bars go. Wasn't outstandingly clean in there and the open mic comics were 'meh'. Probably not a bad spot to kickback but not my first choice in this city.
