During our standard happy hour we offer 50% off select apps. These include many cheesy shareables that pair well with beer or cocktails. Specific app eligibility can vary by location, so call to confirm before you arrive.

All pizzas are half off in the same hour window. Pizzas make a great centerpiece for two people or for groups who want one dish to share alongside apps.

  • Core value: half off select apps and half off all pizzas during happy hour.
  • How it fits the menu: combine apps and a pizza for variety and savings.
  • Pairing tip: stack these food deals with our drink specials to maximize savings without overcomplicating your order.

Happy Hour App Favorites to Order

For quick bites and big flavors, our happy hour lineup focuses on crowd-pleasing apps you can share. We name the exact items so you know what to ask for when ordering from the menu.

Dips and Cheese-Forward Shareables

Four Cheese Spinach Dip and Miguel’s Queso Dip lead this group. Both are warm, savory, and built for sharing.

Wisconsin Fried Cheese Curds appear here too for guests who want a true cheese-forward bite.

Nachos and Fresh-Topped Picks

Poke Nachos appear as a bright, seafood-forward option. Chicken Nachos stay classic and hearty.

These two choices contrast fresh and rich textures for different appetites.

Crispy Bites, Sliders, and Proteins

Fried Calamari, Hand-Battered Chicken Tenders, and Boneless Wings deliver crunch. Classic Sliders and Blackened Ahi Sashimi add savory and fresh profiles.

Gardein® Wings provide a plant-based option alongside traditional picks.

Small Plates with Global Notes

Crispy Brussels Sprouts, Chicken Lettuce Wraps, and Spicy Za’atar Hummus bring bold spice and bright herbs. These are great if you want lighter food to balance richer apps.

  • We group apps by type so it’s easy to mix dips, nachos, and crunchy plates.
  • Cheese lovers should try the dip trio or the fried curds during happy hour.
  • Availability and happy hour participation can vary by location; call if you need a specific item.
Category Examples Texture/Flavor
Dips & Cheese Four Cheese Spinach Dip, Miguel’s Queso, Wisconsin Curds Creamy, melty, savory

Draft Beer and Half Yards We Pour

We pour an expansive selection of draft beers that caters to casual sippers and serious fans alike.

What to expect from 100+ draft brews

Each location offers 100+ draft options, mixing local craft and imports. Rotation is frequent, so taps change with season and trends.

That variety means you can try new beers or find classic favorites on the same visit.

Half Yards and how they fit into happy hour savings

Half Yards are a larger-format pour made for groups and longer visits. They pair well with shared plates and slow conversation.

During late-night hours (Sun–Wed 10:00PM–close) we offer $4 off Half Yards. Choosing a Half Yard can be more economical than ordering several individual pours.

  • When to pick draft: when you want fresh tap flavor or seasonal brews.
  • When to pick other drinks: for cocktails or specific wine pours outside the tap list.
Item Typical Size When to Order
Pint 16 oz Single servings, standard tasting
Half Yard ~32–36 oz Group sharing, better value late-night
Sampler Flights 4 x 5 oz Compare several beers

Draft availability can change by tap and season. Ask our team for current pours and the best picks for the night.

Signature Cocktails to Pair With Your Meal

Our cocktail list brings thoughtful balance to the tap selection, giving every guest a crafted option to suit the night.

Each location pairs an array of cocktails with 100+ draft brews, so guests who prefer mixed drinks have just as many choices. We position these pours to complement appetizers, pizzas, burgers, tacos, and entrée plates without naming specific recipes.

Crafted cocktails alongside our draft list

Think of cocktails by flavor direction: citrus-forward for bright starters, spirit-forward for rich mains, refreshing for lighter seafood or salads, and bold for grilled or smoky dishes.

  • Complement apps and shareables with lighter, citrus or herbal cocktails.
  • Pair pizzas and burgers with spirit-forward or balanced mixed drinks.
  • Choose refreshing cocktails for tacos and seafood to cleanse the palate.
  • Pick bolder blends for hearty entrées and celebrations with larger groups at The River.

Refreshing Tacos, salads Light, palate-clearing

Menu Highlights: Burgers, Street Tacos, and More

If you’re deciding between hearty or shareable plates, our burgers and tacos stand out as go-to picks.

We build our grilled burgers to be approachable, filling, and easy to customize. Guests like them for steady flavors and simple swaps. Choose a burger when you want a full meal that pairs well with most draft pours.

Street tacos are ideal for sharing. They let you mix flavors at the table and add variety without a big commitment. Order a few taco options alongside apps for a social, sampler-style meal.

Use appetite and timing to choose. Pick burgers for a lunch or dinner main. Pick tacos when you want lighter bites or to graze between drinks. Our brief menu notes help you navigate these offerings without listing every item.

Category Best For Pairing Tip
Burgers Hearty appetite, single entrée Full-bodied beers or spirit-forward cocktails

Seafood, Steaks, Ribs, and Entrées Worth the Trip

For a special night out, pick from bright seafood choices or hearty steaks and ribs that stand as full-meal favorites. We group entrées so you can decide by flavor and occasion.

Seafood picks for lighter or bold flavors

Our seafood options favor fresh herbs, citrus, and bold preparations when you want brightness. Choose them for business dinners or when you want a lighter, refined plate.

Steaks and ribs for hearty cravings

Steaks and ribs aim for depth—char, slow-cook techniques, and savory sauces. They suit weekend outings or any time you want a filling entrée to share.

  • We point guests to entrée-level choices for full dinners.
  • Occasions: business meals, weekend nights, and visitors seeking a “worth the trip” plate at The River.
  • Availability may vary by location; call to confirm before you arrive.
Category Flavor Direction Best Occasions
Seafood Light, bright, herb-forward Business dinners, lighter appetites
Steaks Bold, charred, savory Weekend outings, celebrations
Ribs Slow-cooked, rich, shareable Groups, hearty cravings

Pair seafood with lighter drafts or citrus-forward cocktails. For steaks and ribs, pick fuller beers or spirit-forward cocktails to match the richness. These entrées are among our favorites and fit well within the yard house dining experience.

Fresh Ingredients and Chef-Crafted Twists

Quality ingredients and smart seasoning give each dish a clear, consistent identity you can taste.

Our focus starts with produce and proteins selected for texture and flavor. Chicken is never frozen and burgers use a prime beef blend for a juicier bite. These choices affect sear, mouthfeel, and overall balance.

A vibrant display of fresh ingredients laid out on a rustic wooden table, featuring an array of colorful vegetables including ripe tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, fragrant herbs like basil and cilantro, and bright bell peppers.

The middle ground highlights a beautiful basket overflowing with seasonal fruits, including avocados, oranges, and strawberries, all freshly harvested. In the background, soft natural light pours in through a nearby window, casting gentle shadows and creating an inviting, warm atmosphere. The scene captures the essence of freshness and creativity, perfect for a culinary context. No text, logos, or watermarks are present.

Why our ingredients taste different

We use real components and precise prep to keep flavors bright. White American cheese and other premium items lift classics into something distinct.

Trending flavors and chef twists

Expect global notes like za’atar or a Nashville Hot-style kick in rotating dishes. Examples include Poke Nachos and a Kurobuta Pork burger with spicy candied bacon, arugula, and house-made blueberry ketchup.

  • Concrete wins: never-frozen chicken, prime beef blend, Berkshire Kurobuta pork.
