It's a lovely spot to catch-up with friends over food and/or drinks. Visited on a weekday and tried their $22 lunch special and decided to revisit with another friend within the same week! Love the atmosphere, very Melbourne being right next to the yarra. Delicious regular tequila. Good chips. Good portions! Friendly service. Some tables have QR codes so you can order straight from your table and pay separately. Some tables don't have codes but you can make your order separately at the bar area anyway.

My recent visit to Riverside Bar for their unlimited pizza and spritz offer was nothing short of spectacular. For two blissful hours, I indulged in a seemingly endless array of delicious pizzas, perfectly complemented by refreshing spritzes. The atmosphere was vibrant and inviting, making it an ideal spot for a relaxing evening out. A special shoutout to our young waiter, Jan, who truly made the experience exceptional. Jan's attentive and friendly service went above and beyond our expectations. He ensured our glasses were never empty and that we always had fresh, hot pizza to enjoy. His warm demeanor and impeccable service significantly enhanced our evening, making it one to remember. I highly recommend Riverside Bar for anyone looking for a fantastic dining experience. With delicious food, great drinks, and outstanding service, it’s a place I’ll definitely return to again and again.

Riverland is the perfect venue for a casual pre-game dinner. Conveniently located along the banks of Melbourne’s iconic Yarra River, Riverland offers plenty of casual dining spaces to kick back with friends, enjoy a drink, snack or something more substantial. The service was friendly, accommodating and efficient, whilst the vibes were chilled and laid back with a great mix of retro funk background music. On the menu was a great mix of snacks, platters, pizzas, burgers and classic staples, complemented by a fabulous selection of wines, beers and cocktails. We couldn’t fault the pizza, warm salad and fries and our wines were on point! Prices were reasonable and the service was fantastic! Highly recommended and definitely a healthier and tastier option than the cafeteria food on offer at the MCG for not much more!

Good place to catch up or meet other people. Centrally located with a great outlook over the Yarra River. $9 pints during happy hour is a bonus. You will need to book a table if you want to eat here, pizzas are good.

It is in a good spot. The tables were comfy. Can't comment on the drinks. The food was not great, I couldn't finish my egg plant Parama bitter and bland. Chips and other dishes were 'ok'. Wasn't cheap.
