love the environment of this establishment. All of the employees are so nice and informative. Great place to go with your family or friends. They also are very accepting of my service animal.

The people who talk down on Riverside Taphouse don't come here as often as me and my wife does. Me and my wife live right across the road from this establishment. We met at the taphouse. My wife and I both grew up in this same area. We met here. This is the most comfortable, clean and people oriented establishment. We would rather come here over Jiggy rays in elizabethton or numans in Johnson city tn any day. They are family friendly and pet oriented. We have brought our pets here and they treat our pets and our kids like they are our their own. The incident that happened with the crazy lady in the parking lot was handled by the owners of riverside and the ELIZABETHTON POLICE DEPT. Nothing ever happens at riverside that should require police so that incident was only brought on by the lady who wanted to act childish. We love Cheri, Michael and Hunter. They are family to us and to others in the community.

Downtown Elizabethtons first tap house! Outstanding service and friendly patrons and staff. Totally worth the visit if you're looking for fun craft options or a tasty wellness or na option!

This is not a safe place for real locals. I don't like to discuss or make anything political, but this establishment allowed a man to make fun of a local senior male veteran wearing a veteran's cap and a Trump shirt. The same man was allowed to put his hands on a female and offered no help when she requested it. The owners and bartenders were very rude to the seniors. When the seniors left due to unsafe conditions, the female owner and several young women followed the two senior women to their car and got in their faces making threats in a parking lot off premises. The police were called. The female owner and women with her lied to the officers telling them that the seniors started the problem and were followed to their car because they took beer off premises and were intoxicated.
The police believed the owner and young women although the senior women tried to explain that they were verbally and physically assaulted along with the elderly senior veteran. It's very sad that local people are treated so poorly in this establishment. This is an extremely liberal establishment that does not appreciate the culture of local patrons.

Lord where do I begin. We probably wouldn't be down here for a lot of the work Michael & Cheri has done for our downtown Elizabethton! They serve up all kinds of drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic). They literally probably have more non alcoholic options than they do alcoholic options!

They do tap take overs plus all kinds of events.

They helped our community during the flooding of Hurricane Helene!

Great friends & great people. They are one of the anchors of downtown nightlife!

Great beer selection and great staff. They don't serve food but I still gave 5 stars because they had an awesome food truck out front. Blonde guy and the girl with bangs were awesome. We will be back!

My wife and niece visited the Riverside Taphouse for a XUL Beer Co. tap takeover! We were able to try a nice variety of the XUL brews much to our delight! ... and yes the PB&J Mixtape was available!
We also ordered a variety of items from
the Food Truck... including the Chimichuri fries, Gruyere and onion grilled cheese and cheese steak sandwich! Everything was delicious and served piping 🔥 hot!
The Taphouse is a safe, friendly establishment... stop in for a beverage!

Been a regular here for a couple years, and it's easily the best place to get a beer in the Tri-Cities for my money! Great selection, warm, friendly atmosphere, and just the best owners and staff. Come a stranger, leave a part of the family!

A great place to hangout with friends, try an exotic beer, listen to music, and play board games.

Underwhelming. The beer was great, but the outside seating area was like going to Cootie Browns, and really just not my thing.
