We were in town for a concert at The Biltmore. We were greeted at the door and quickly seated. The server who appeared to be the Manager/Owner came to our table and was very informative and asked for our drink order. We weren't quite sure what we wanted yet. So she happily gave us a menu and we were able to browse over a lot of concoctions that most pubs and some bars don't even have. We settled on a beer cocktail. It was new to the menu and tasted amazing. Very refreshing. A nice light beer with pineapple juice, rum and amaretto. The appetizers were fantastic and served quickly. Hot and fresh. Followed by our main course with constant visits to the table to make sure that everything was to our liking. Everyone was extremely courteous. The food was fantastic and even though we are living in Oakville... We will make the trip to Oshawa just to visit this restaurant again. Concert or not!

Sat on the back patio (bond side) it's nice and quiet (lunch time Sunday) Got the Rueben wrap with french onion soup.... Absolutely amazing. I would order both again and this is coming from someone to tends to order vegetarian while at a restaurant 😂 My fiance got the Mediterranean burger with the traditional Greek salad and was pleasantly surprised with how delicious they both were. Caesars could use some "jazzing up" very plain and no garnish with it. Adding a pickle or some olives or even a piece of bacon would have added alot to it. Thank you Andrew your service was perfect. You were there anytime we needed another drink or had a question and made sure not to approach the table to often.. will definitely be back.

This place has the best appetizer / share plate ever... a veggie platter! Just what we wanted after drinking all day & night. Same with peppers, carrots, celery and broccoli florets. I wish more bars had this. And it was very reasonably priced at that. Was the same as you'd buy a veggie tray at a grocery. Healthy option AND reasonably priced. 😋 We actually came to play pool. Staff was super friendly and everything seemed well priced. We went on a Saturday so it was a big college crowd, but we didn't feel like we should return to the nursing home. Not sure about other food, but a friend ordered the wings and they looked alright. Either way, I'll be back just for the veggie platter.

This was a really cool spot in Durham. I would've loved to see it busy for the weekend vibes. I actually enjoyed the food for a pub. Especially their poutine. Up on the second floor the pub also has an amazing pool table lounge. Our server was super sweet and nice but it was definetly hard to find parking so look ahead into that. Would definetly go back to try out more menu items.

This is my first time visiting Rileys, and I'm quite impressed. Ordered so many dishes and almost liked everything, especially wings. Place and nice and clean and well maintained.
