Discovering The River's Edge Bar & Grill

Welcome to The River's Edge Bar & Grill, a treasured gem located along the scenic Alafia River in Gibsonton, Florida. Here, every meal is an experience, enlivened by the beautiful waterfront view that sets the perfect backdrop for both relaxation and enjoyment. As a food reviewer for Cafe-Encore, I’m excited to introduce you to this laid-back haven where delicious food meets a vibrant atmosphere.

Delightful Offerings

The menu at The River's Edge is designed to satisfy every palate. Start your culinary journey with their appetizing Cheese Fries, a crowd favorite, available in several indulgent variations, including the Bacon Chili Cheese Fries at just $6.79. If you’re in the mood for something heartier, dive into their signature "Edge" Burger or the flavorful Mushroom Swiss Burger, both served with crispy fries and brimming with fresh ingredients.

Seafood Sensations

The seafood selections are equally impressive. Diners rave about the Peel & Eat Shrimp, which are perfectly boiled and seasoned with Old Bay—a must-try for any seafood lover. Other highlights include Stuffed Crabs and perfectly fried Clam Strips, each served with generous portions of fries that make for a delightful meal on the water.

A Relaxing Atmosphere

More than just great food, The River's Edge Bar & Grill offers an inviting environment. The ambience is enhanced by live music on Sundays, creating a vibrant and fun atmosphere. Customers appreciate the friendly service and the ability to unwind while overlooking the river, a feature that sets this establishment apart. As one customer noted, it’s a “perfect place to go and relax on a weekend afternoon,” witnessing the boats gently glide by while enjoying a cold beer or a delectable meal.

Customer Satisfaction

The reviews paint a clear picture: patrons not only enjoy the food but also the overall experience. From the welcoming staff to the spacious outdoor seating, it's easy to see why visitors keep coming back. As one diner stated, “the view is excellent,” making The River's Edge a perfect spot for gathering with friends or family.

    Amazing place by the water, with lots of bikers and live music (visited Sundays). Great atmosphere if you like it rustic and real. I loved it there, very chilled, cold beer and food. Great place to hang out and watch and enjoy your time... 5 stars absolutely...
