They were really good, just not very strong. The food was the only letdown. The menu felt pretty basic and nothing really stood out. It's still worth stopping by for drinks and the atmosphere

The Perfect Pistachio Martini is SO good. And little did I know, we were there for happy hour, and…read moreit was only $7. I usually wouldn't give a place 5 stars if I was just there for a drink, but this pistachio martini was just too good, and I'm still thinking about it days later. And the interior of this place was cool. I want to come back the next time I'm in town. I got the Banana Bread Espresso Martini because I was interested... hadn't heard of it before. But it was just okay. It was kind of watery, and mine had pieces of ice in it. I guess it was just hard to go from the creaminess of the pistachio one to the more bitter banana bread one. All in all, cool place, great happy hour prices, and really delicious, unique pistachio martini! Go here even just for that. See ya next time; thanks for having me!

Much of the hot food was cool, the "fresh" fruit was fermented and they ran out of desserts. I was disappointed and embarrassed that I had made the arrangements to choose this place. The best part was the ambiance, the mighty Cuyahoga entertained us as we ate. Our server was pleasant and took good care of us. We won't return and we won't be recommending Beaus on the River to anyone.

I asked what kind of bourbon they had and was read a list of alcohol that wasn't bourbon. I finally just asked for a Woodford and ginger ale. My friend asked for a Jameson straight up. She got ice and I received a drink in a cup without ice (straight up). My drink tasted strange, so I thought maybe it was just warm or the type of ginger ale they used. Couldn't find our waitress anywhere so I walked up to the bar to get a cup of ice. When I poured my drink into the plastic cup with ice, I saw the culprit. SUDS. I was given a glass that had soap not rinsed out. I thought the original 'foam' was the soda but then realized the ginger ale was FLAT and the suds were soap. Waitress finally came back and I ordered a beer instead and sent it back. Then we ordered some appetizer which was less than stellar. Sorry kids but we won't be back.

She also dripped Bloody Mary juice on my friend's white purse/skirt on accident - could have been a little more conscientious with our items around and handing things to us. On the plus side, she was kind enough to bring my friend a birthday dessert for us to share, which was a nice touch.

Went online just to see if they had a menu but caught a glimpse of someone rating the restaurant which is right down the street from my home. I saw that they gave it a group rating of 4 stars so I went with my kids because it's close, and besides my daughter had eaten there before and told me the food was good( word of mouth is one of the greatest advertising technique that a chain has no control over because it's the customer who generates it). Now mind you, I'm reading reviews about farmer boy, so I'm expecting bad service/good food. When I arrived, I was greeted with a smile, and my server( Pebbles) was awesome and that's why I tipped her they way I did. The food was great( could've cooked the bacon a little bit more, but chef your food was delicious). I will be back for dinner after the wife gets home from work.

Has served many purposes over the many years. And is currently a restaurant... I say more a bar/diner. The very first impression I got upon entering was the smell of it's age. There was clearly a musty, mildew type odor all through the place. It never let you forget it, no matter how long you stayed. That's the sole reason for the 3 stars. Everything else was quite pleasant. The server was very nice. The menu had plenty of selection. The food was very good. As a matter of fact, my brother said his steak and eggs was the best he ever had. My BLT was very good, and I took half of it home. The problem was I could not get that smell out of my nose no matter how hard I tried to ignore it. So an easy 4 (maybe even a 5) has to be a 3. Sorry, I call 'em like I see 'em.

I was hoping for at least a fruit topping or the simplest garnish of whipped cream or something but nope, just a very thick regular waffle. I chose sausages as my meat side and they were skinny and burnt. BF got the biscuits and gravy and the gravy not only had no sausage, it was only thickened with flour so it was grey looking and pretty bland without the meat au jus. They didn't make their own jam or butter (some diners have whipped or flavored butter), or real maple syrup. Ingredients were cheaper and prices are higher here than expected. I did like the space and the building. Parking lot was really cramped but there was plenty of seating inside and it was nicely lit. We came at a normal brunch time on a Sunday and did not have to wait long at all!
