Reviews
The restaurant itself sits on a fairly large property with plenty of parking, indoor/shaded outdoor more intimate seating as well as community style tables and an outdoor bar around the side.
Both times we visited around 4pm or so and it was busy but not overflowing. One thing we both really appreciated was the staff here particularly their friendliness and how often they checked in on us. We never felt harassed nor ignored.
The food selection is classic pub fare with a few unique offerings like Jalapeño Poppers which we both loved along with Seasoned Waffle Fries! I particularly enjoyed their Pulled Pork Sandwich with Jalapeños. They also offer nicely portioned roasted chicken or beef bites for dogs, which was a real treat. For drinks they offer beer/cider along with a full service bar as well as non-alcoholic options like ice tea and sodas. Try their Mandarin Orange Lemon Drop if still available or their Skinny Mule!
Overall our experience here was quite nice on both occasions with one of the staff even remembering our dogs on the second visit. The food/drinks were reasonably priced, the staff were friendly, the restaurant was easily accessible and spacious and they cater quite nicely to dogs with water bowls and food offerings. Not much more we could have asked for!
the food itself was all good, but the portions served were not at all deserving of the price. seven “jumbo” shrimps that were actually only average sized and as if previously frozen for $14 was actually preposterous. 16 ounces of clam chowder that was in fact all chowder and not clam for $10 was disappointing. $13 crab cakes “with tartar sauce” did not come with tarter sauce and was no more than 10 ounces was absolutely unreasonable. burgers were ordered and regret was felt when bites revealed grey, distasteful patties. frankly, i would have been more satisfied with frozen food and a microwave, but what can i do when i’m hungry in an isolated part of civilization. they offer draft beer though
the servers were kind, though. it was easy to ask for utensils and condiments. there were proper clean up jobs here and there and constant bustling to keep trash from building up on our table. i also saw an adjacent table get water for their dogs. there is an automatic charge for big parties (we had 6 people)
the ambiance was pretty nice too. if you have kids, there’s a huge lawn, a sandbox, and cornholl for entertainment. there is both indoors and outdoors seating, both dressed to give that classic cozy hub vibe and obviously situated near the russian river in a dense thicket of foliage. the parking is just gravel path.
overall? not *awful*, but overrated and not worth a whole meal or experience. maybe they’re the best in the area, but that’s not to say you should settle if you want a good food oriented experience.
The service at the Russian River Pub was friendly and the space was beautiful. We sat outside and really enjoyed the picnic atmosphere. The sun was nearly setting and it was a very nice day.
Everyone in our party enjoyed their food (Prime Rib Sandwich !!!) and we were especially surprised by how nice the napkins were.
It’s a small detail to choose a quality napkin when you’re making your selections for your business, but it tells a lot about what they take seriously. Service, friendliness, good food and cleanliness. ‘They say’ cleanliness is second to godliness.
All that being said, what a wonderful experience to enjoy with our friends at the Russian River Pub. No doubt, we will be back.
I’ve been here before and had their dessert which is naive and unbelievably good. Didn’t have room this time but look forward to sharing it with family next time we are in the area.
They make a good-sized burger at a reasonable price, not something you’re likely to find often in Sonoma County, and all the other offerings, from their popular wings, to their crispy waffle fries and rotating specials, come in decent portions at reasonable prices.
The outdoor patio and beer garden is one of the best spots to be on a beautiful SoCo day. You can grab a beer from their extensive menu, and the river is close by, even if not right in view.
All this before mentioning that their staff is always friendly, attentive, and welcoming. It feels like a communal place when it’s all filled up, but the vibes are always right. Don’t miss stopping by the pub for some beer and grub.
