The folks behind Southport Lanes & Billiards and Seven Ten Lanes are behind this Roscoe Village neighborhood tavern. The name is an homage to the Riverview amusement park, which was located in this neighborhood until the late '60s. Pub foods like burgers, sandwiches and salads dot the menu but heartier fare like fish and chips also make the menu. The front room holds a pool table, while the back room houses bubble hockey, darts and a Golden Tee video game. Sports fans can check out the game on 10 TVs, including six plasmas and a big screen.

"Terrible Service And Atmosphere"

By Wandering Chicago from Chicago, December 17, 2007

Beware of the Riverview, tavern lovers. And don't get drawn in by the Chicago-history steeped tavern name that references the former amusement park...

"Went there on a Saturday..."

Went there on a Saturday night. Not very impressed. Service was good even if the waitress looked pissed off the whole time. Did not get crowded ...
