River's Euro American Bistro - Happy Hour, Chicago IL - September 11

Rating - 9.3

Had a few Friday afternoon cocktails before getting on the train with a co-worker. We arrived around 3:45 and got a seat on the terrace overlooking the river (in the shade) with no problem. The place was rocking, happy hour must have started EARLY on that day, and it was a beautiful day. The patio gets very crowded, but there always seems like there is plenty of room.

Sara was our server and she was excellent. Even though she had a bunch of tables we always had a cold drink and she got the bill for me in a hurray (I had already missed one train).

Only complaint was that drinks are premium priced (small draft beer about $5, and wine is $9) and are served in plastic cups (I cant really argue with that).

Fun spot for a beer before the train.
