Chagrin Tavern on the River
is a family-friendly restaurant and bar located right on the Chagrin River. We are chef-driven, service oriented and committed to excellence!
We aren’t happy unless you’re happy!
There is always something to look forward to here. From our Daily Specials and Happy Hour during the week, to Special Events, and Live Entertainment on Friday and Saturday Nights!
And did we mention the amazing views?!
Enjoy the sun setting on the river as the boats sail by and enjoy the breeze through our open bay doors leading to our oasis patio.

We loved our dinner here! There were a lot of really great options and we found them all to be good! The portion sizes were great as well! While the food was good, we did think it was overpriced, though nothing was bad.
We had one really lovely, younger girl who was a great server (She seemed to still be in training, but was doing a great job.). We also had another waitress who was kind of rude to us at the table, and when we mentioned that part of our order was wrong, she seemed very frustrated. everyone at the table felt the same way about how she treated us.
The atmosphere the restaurant is wonderful. The view of the harbor and the options for indoor and outdoor seating were great. we were so glad to have visited.

A real “find” for us. We love a good patio and near water and this neat, welcoming tavern on the river fit our wants so well. Greeted by a friendly hostess who sat us in their covered patio because it was sooo hot. Perfect spot to watch the river go by while we ate very tasty food for a quick lunch. I had the Lobster/Bacon/Taters and she had Beet Salad. Both had a lot of flavor and were a very nice size for small plates. The staff was great to talk to and quick to check on us. This is a place we will be happy to come back to.

Wonderful restaurant. No wait for tables, quiet atmosphere – great for having a conversation with friends. Very clean. Great food and drinks. And our server, Alexa, was fantastic. Very sweet & personable. Wasn’t rushed or hurried to leave. Will definitely come back. And maybe a little later on Wednesday to do the Music Trivia!

This place has some bomb mussels, I actually never had them before trying them at Chagrin Tavern. Each dish we ordered was delicious. The view is so serene… sitting on Chagrin River you can enjoy it from the window during the colder months or the patio in the warmer months. The prices are very affordable and for the taste and portions it’s definitely worth trying. Now I’m not from the Eastlake area so to me this place wasn’t easy to find, something like a hidden gem. I had to use my gps to locate it, but I was far from disappointed each time we visited. This place was recommended to me and I was not let down.

If you want a great time, delicious food, kind-hearted staff, a beautiful view of the lake, and some live performances (depending on day and time), then this is your place.
Summer, a wonderfully pleasant and sweetheart of a hostess, greated us and brought us to a lovely table near the lake. Our waitress was an amazing woman, and everyone was enjoying themselves.

We live out of state but visit family not far from here. My family comes here every chance we get. Food is always fast and perfect. The staff remembers us and makes us feel welcome. The facility is clean and the bands that play are amazing. Enjoy great views and great times!! Will be back again!

We’ve been to Chagrin Tavern a few times now, and we’re always impressed! I absolutely love the margarita pizza with grilled chicken—it’s a must-try. The atmosphere, food and service are all fantastic, totally deserving of a 5-star rating. Plus, the patio overlooks the beautiful Chagrin River, making for a perfect setting. We’ll definitely be coming back!

It’s always nice to eat overlooking the water.
We enjoyed a very relaxed Sunday brunch. I chose the meat lover’s omelette. It is a hearty choice, so bring your appetite.
My wife chose the corned beef breakfast. It was a generous portion.
In both orders, we received a single slice of toast, which was a surprise. Also, the toast was not as toasted as we would prefer.
We will come back as the view is worth the price of admission.

First time visiting this restaurant and loved everything about it. Sat on the covered patio and was a great view. I ordered the braised short rib over cheesy grits and I was phenomenal! Server was also fantastic. Can’t wait to visit again.

OK, so this place is fricken awesome. Driving down to the place, you don’t think it’s going to be as nice as it is. All redone and super clean and patio is massive. We are currently here for the wife’s work Xmas party. The party room is a great space and ready to accommodate 50 or more pretty darn comfy. The food was fantastic. We had multiple different pizzas (all amazing), the calamari (fresh and whatever the sauce on it is…damm!!) Burger was juicy and double C thicc! Made specialty drinks for Xmas. 10/10 will come again, and I definitely recommend a try!
