We needed a spot with good fish before heading back home from our camp trip. This place has exceptional reviews so we decided to give it a try! We each got an order of fish and chips and a drink. The location is great right on the river with an awesome view. The food came out fairly quick and it was piping hot and delicious! The tartar sauce was outstanding and had great flavor and the fries had this seasoning on them that we couldn't get enough of! We loved it and will definitely be back! read more

Friendly service, out of this world fish and chips! Fish was perfectly crispy and still moist. Tartar sauce was so yummy too. Definitely recommend checking this place out and we will be back! read more

We stopped along the highway after reading reviews of Riverside -wanted a great Fish n Chips lunch and we couldn't have been more pleased. Sooo good. So flavorful. It took longer than we'd expected to get our food but it was worth the wait- just a busy afternoon. Give these guys a try - you won't regret it. read more

Oh my word... i dont often say this, but this is the best place. I have had. Fish. And. Chips... I think it has maxed the cod fish and chips scale. I know when you get past cod, you get better... yes, like many things. This for it lane, its level, has to be the best, yes the best... i have had. The crisp was like a sheet of puff pastry, it was like a heavenly cloud of love and grease in my grill. The fries, though frozen tasted fresh and were very very tasty. They have their oil on point and everything is amazing. The pulled pork grilled cheese, though expensive was very good, the sauce, and butter soaked bread was top notch. This is a must try in this area!! A must Thank me later!! Tip: get extra tartar sauce, its the shizz read more

Awesome little food truck. Every item was fresh and seasoned properly. Will return for sure.

Best fish and chips ever! Not dry fish, beautifully battered with extra crunchy fries and amazing coleslaw! Also the location is really nice, you can sit by the water and enjoy a nice view with a beer. read more

Riverside Fish n' Chips - Gorgeous view and incredible fish and chips. - Food Trucks Near Me - Nehalem, Oregon

The fish and chips here are perfect! Sometimes it's either the fish or the chip is good, but both of these are perfect. The pieces of fish are so big and the fries are seasoned and crispy and there are plenty of them. I got a two piece but had to take half of it home. I don't usually re- heat fish but it was still crispy and full of flavor! The atmosphere of being near the river , sitting at picnic tables, makes me nostalgic for camping trips of my youth but with way better food! Even the Cole slaw was good! Home made with spices and cranberries. These guys take pride in their food and you can taste it. read more

Hands down the best fish n chips on the Oregon coast! Their house made tartar sauce is incredible! Finally a place who makes some delicious slaw to go with the fish n chips as well! If you love fish n chips you can't go wrong at Riverside! read more

Amazing halibut fish and chips. Expect a wait during busy times, but it's well worth it. Nice seating by the river too!

Honestly, this is some of the best Fish & chips I have ever eaten!! I recently returned from Ireland and London where I searched for good fish and chips, thinking if you can't get good fish & chips here .....then where? ? Nehalem OR that's where!! Fresh ling cod lightly breaded and deep fried , crispy fresh chips with a side of slaw, delicious!! I will return! read more

Ridiculously good fish and chips from a food truck by the river. We drove a few minutes from Manzanita and would do it again! read more

Riverside Fish n' Chips - 3 piece cod and chips - Food Trucks Near Me - Nehalem, Oregon

Lots of great reviews and recommendations led me to try this place. I will start out by saying something I did not see in any other reviews when I searched "Credit Cards" they do in fact take them. Overall my to-go experience was hit & miss. We had 2 orders of the 3pc Cod Fish N chips, it was $29 before tip. They took our order by phone and gave us a time to pickup which was nice. Now onto the food scores: Tarter Sauce: 5/5 Was the best tarter sauce I've ever had, normal tarter sauce I do not eat, this one I did eat. They did not have ranch, but also gave ketchup/lemon/vinegar if you requested. Fries: 4/5 Nice seasoning, nice crunch, cooked well. Overall not much to complain about, but not 5* blow you away level but above average for sure. Coleslaw: Now a fan of slaw, but I did eat this and it was better than average. A little soupy at the very end kept this from 5/5, that and maybe a salt or pepper packet to go would have made it perfect. But as is, to-go I think this is a accurate score. Cod Fish Battered: 2/5 Maybe I am a Halibut snob, and not a fan of Cod? But these were very bland, very tasteless. The tarter helped. I tried them dry, with Ketchup, Ranch that I brought and the Tarter provided, still very bland. Needed salt or some seasoning similar to the fries, or something. They seemed cooked well. Smelled good. The taste lacked and this is suppose to be the star of the dish, that's why I give this place a overall 3/5 score. read more

Went for the 2nd time in the past year. Solid fish and chips fried in what you can tell is oil that gets charged on a regular basis. The chips are beer battered and crispy which add to the quality of the food. Staff is friendly and they offer a covered outdoor dining option (with heat lamps) if it is raining. Otherwise, you have the option of a peaceful river-side picnic table. Definitely a good spot for lunch or dinner - FYI I think they close at 6 pm. read more

We stopped for fish and chips on our way out of town on our last day visiting the area, and we were so glad we did! My husband and I shared a 3-piece fish & chips and also a grilled cheese sandwich, and both were fantastic (Who doesn't love local Tillamook cheese?! We asked for it 50/50 cheddar and pepper jack.). The fish was light and delicious with a perfect coating, the fries were amazing and some of the best I've had, and the grilled cheese was cooked to perfection. Sitting on the riverbank in the sun eating such delicious food...what could be better?! So sad we had to return to Seattle when we did, as I would happily have eaten there daily if we'd visited them on day one of our trip. We followed up our visit here with a stop at Buttercup Ice Cream and Chowders for an ice cream cone and also took several chowders home, all of which were great! read more

I wanted to make a special visit due to the reviews I read on Yelp but it just didn't meet the expectations. I do want to say that the location is a tiny trailer behind a little antique store that I thought might be a clue that it was a hidden treasure. The weather was bad and the only place to sit is on the outside deck of the antique store where the trailer is parked. It's just a deck with some plastic chairs and not an area really designated for eating/dining. The person taking the orders was very friendly and helpful. We were almost not able to make the order because the POS system is set up with the store WiFi and it just wouldn't connect maybe due to the weather. We finally got our Fish & Chip order in. Frozen chips, small, very small, pieces of fish and even after eating, we were still hungry. Disappointing. read more

This location definitely deserves the 5 stars. Location is perfect with an adorable outdoor picnic area. Fish and chips was the best I've ever had and service was incredible! Highly recommend. read more

This is a great place to go with kids! They have a heated covered patio and open outdoor seating as well. One thing I learned over time was the length of the menu. When it's short you know it's good. That's Riverside. The fish was so fresh and the batter was perfect. Not greasy. The staff was friendly and super quick. Highly recommend. read more

Great place to stop! Fish and chips were excellent. Look for the location just off Hwy 101.

Really excellent fish and chips! And heated covered space in case it rains. We can't get enough.

I found this place by accident when I discovered Big Wave only offered inside seating and wasn't prepared for takeout. I'm so glad I did. The fish and chips, fries, and cole slaw were delicious. Despite an unexpectedly large crowd due to the unseasonably warm weather, the staff were cheery and efficient. Sitting at a picnic table by the river was just idyllic. We finished with ice cream cones from the Nehalem Food Mart across the street, which was also delicious. My favorite kind of meal. read more

Great atmosphere with picnic tables and chairs by the river. Fish n chips are crispy lightly breaded and the chips were flavorful with a generous portion. Wine and beer are canned. Really relaxing and delicious. read more

We were here two nights ago and everything was wonderful. Great fish and great fries. Not too salty. Tonight we came back. I could not eat the fries they were swimming in salt. The fish was great again. If salt is a concern for you, ask for no salt up front. I was still hungry when I left. read more

We went to the coast on the nicest weekend of spring break so every place was packed with a long wait to get food. We found this food truck along the river and saw it had good reviews. The fish & chips were so good! Such a relaxing chill spot with an antique store to shop at too. read more

Delicious! Interesting food truck behind an antique shop. Great food - we got the fish and chips (light and flaky with amazing seasoned fries!) and the pulled pork grilled cheese. The slaw tastes homemade and tastes great too. Outdoor seating available next to a river. Calm atmosphere. A bit of a wait - but worth it. read more

Hard to find but just what I was looking for! Near closing but caught them open about 20 min. Prior. Just what I was looking for - good fries, slaw. Fish was very good. Not sure if fried in previous oil but still pretty darn tasty. I would definitely recommend. Not a great selection that I could find along the coast here (surprisingly) of seafood eateries, but think I found the best of the best! Reasonable prices too! read more

Some of the best fish and chips I've ever had! Looking forward to returning to try more of the menu. read more

Prices have spiked.... yeah yeah... but this is some of the lightest, flakiest fish and chips on the North Coast. Bejind the main street in tiny Nehalem, you can sit on the river and enjoy these exceptional fish and chips. read more

Not sure if there's much to add from the other reviews but the kids got an order to split and they loved them! It did take about 25 mins to come out, but they said it was worth the wait! Love the cute outdoor patio area! read more

OK.... Might seem unfair to be "inclusive" in a review about one place. Riverside in Nehalem has the best Cod Fish n Chips I've ever had. I'm a former restaurant owner and we served Fish n Chips (cod). Ours were good, but no better, on a good day, than here. And we worked at it! I say inclusive because there are 3 on the North Oregon Coast. Ship Out in Warrenton, Bow Picker in Astoria, and this one. All are the best at what they do. Bowpicker the best tuna Fish n Chips (FC). Ship Out has a nice covered dining area, and a more diverse menu. They have the best Halibut FC, but I love their Calamari. And if they ever have fresh sturgeon, it's a must. Back to Riverside. I love coleslaw. My wife who doesn't, really likes theirs. Good news, they have pulled pork, for other than fish eaters, and they do their fish into fish tacos. Their eating area is very pretty and they have covered seating for wetter days. People are friendly and unlike either of the other 2, they have beer and wine. All in all, a destination spot. No ocean view, but very scenic and downright tasty. We go for a walk at Manzanita or Arcadia back by Cannon Beach and then come here. Last thing, if someone in your party really is not happy with Riverside's offerings, there's Buttercup Cafe that has yummy chowder and seafood soups that is right on the other side of the building. Never tried, but people rave. Like we can get past Riverside! You've missed something if you don't stop. read more

Amazing fish and chips, well worth the wait, and depending on what time you go, you will wait. Small truck and from what I could see everything is hand made to order. So if you need it your way right away, this may not be the place for you. If you have time, relax and grab a beer and enjoy the waterfront scenery and relaxed atmosphere and be prepared for a legit plate of fish and chips. A must stop if you are in the area. read more

We just were driving thru Nehalem and looked up fish n chips. Riverside popped up with many 5 star reviews and I now see why! Food was very good! I had the pulled pork tacos. Super amazing! The sauce compliments the pulled pork in an amazing way. My husband had the 3 piece fish n chips. He said they were great! Lightly breaded so you really taste the fish. It was a win win. Another fun tip is they have a " joke of the day" todays was " why didn't the lifeguard save the hippy?" So I had to ask why.... The answer: " cuz he was way too far out man!!" Great way to end a wonderful dinner. Highly recommend eating here. read more

Absolutely amazing from the food to the setting and ambiance. My family totally loved everything we ate, even our picky teenagers both loved it. Everything on the menu is great! read more
