The River Rock Cafe in Bay City has always been a beloved local gem, and its recent reopening under the familiar stewardship of Greg has been a delightful revival. Stepping into the bar feels like a warm embrace from the past, with its chill and classic atmosphere instantly welcoming you.
Greg's return as the owner has brought back some of the classic dishes that had long been missed by the regulars. The food, rich in flavor and steeped in tradition, is a reminder of the bar's legacy and its enduring appeal. It's a joy to see these favorites grace the menu once again.
A notable and highly appreciated addition is the extensive variety of wines now available. Whether you're a connoisseur or just dabbling in the world of wines, there's something here to satisfy your palate. This new selection complements the classic bar ambiance perfectly, offering a sophisticated twist to the traditional bar experience.
The service at River Rock Cafe is, quite simply, top-notch. The staff are attentive, friendly, and genuinely invested in ensuring a great experience for every guest. This level of service, combined with the establishment's pristine cleanliness, sets the bar high and contributes significantly to the overall enjoyment of the visit.
In conclusion, the River Rock Cafe remains a shining beacon in Bay City's nightlife. Its combination of nostalgic charm, delicious food, exquisite wine selection, and exceptional service makes it a must-visit. I highly recommend dropping by to experience this revitalized classic for yourself. Whether you're looking for a relaxed evening out or a taste of the bar's storied past, River Rock Cafe won't disappoint.

Had a wonderful and very tasty Cali Rueben. Excellent wine list with reasonably priced glasses and bottles. You can buy the bottles right there as well. Our service was excellent, friendly and prompt. Great job to everyone that re-opened and re-vamped it. A great local place to grab a bite and a glass!

I have yet to try something I haven't liked. Everything is delicious, good portions, great service. Food comes out quick and a great selection of alcohol. My husband and I come regularly. It's a very cozy and welcoming atmosphere.

This place has always had a great vibe, but I wanted to check it out since new owners took over. Our waitress was great, but the kitchen was a little slow, which is expected with new staff. Also, the food menu is a lot smaller, so hopefully, a few new things are eventually added to it. We'll definitely be back.

RiverRock Cafe used to have the best cheeseburgers in town. Between using ground sirloin (which is dry no matter how it is prepared due to lack of fat content), the cheese (which now sucks compared to the old preparation), the size (1/3 lb. before cook which is ridiculously small for the price) and the bun (untoasted and blah) I will never come here for a burger again. The atmosphere and the service was an A+. $13 for a 1/3 lb. burger served with chips with a $2.50 up charge for fries, $1.50 up charge for bacon and $1 up charge for cheese is embarrassing. I will pay whatever all day long for the old food at this establishment but someone decided to ruin it that has absolutely no idea what they are doing.
