The River Bar

I've been really interested in checking out The River Bar at Assembly Row ever since it opened.  The lure of couches and fire pits was quite alluring.  We finally had a reason to go towards the end of February.  We hadn't seen my dad in a while and he lives near Assembly Row so we picked him up and headed over to the River Bar.

It was too cold for couches and fire pits but we did get three seats at the bar.  They tried to seat us in their enclosed "winter" patio but it was pretty chilly.  I was glad they were ok with us changing locations.  I got the St. Cecilia cocktail, featuring gin, prosecco, cardamom, lime, and pomegranate.  It was delicious!  The food was only so-so, in my opinion.  The menu features an Asian fusion menu and I didn't love it, or the food prices, but I would go back for the cocktail!

It was a really cozy place, with a nice vibe, to hang out at.  It was nice catching up with my dad and I think he enjoyed getting out to somewhere different!
