Best Brunch Restaurants in Cochrane

The service was efficient and everyone that interacted with us was kind and attentive. Love the atmosphere for Christmas lunch with friends. Food was scrumptious. Will definitely be returning.

The food was absolutely delicious. Shared many different plates with friends including the roasted carrots (to die for), the beets, the tomato burrata ( warmed and so much flavor), the cabbage, the ahi tuna, the chicken, the steak and the scallops. Finished with sharing a piece of coconut cake and the butterscotch pudding. All amazing!

From starting cocktail to shortbread with the check, everything on the chef’s tasting menu was fabulous. Wine pairings were spot on. Pacing of the meal and service were outstanding. Thank you for another beautiful Deane House evening.

It was a most wonderful lunch with a very dear friend! It was a celebration lunch of friendship and also the retirement of my surgical oncologist who I was going to one last time before he is done on December 23rd. I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate that than at the River Cafe!! I had the Flank Steak and my friend had the burger and they were both truly exceptional!! The steak just melted in my mouth and the accompaniments were perfect! The burger was scrumptious…complete with juices running down your fingers as you ate it, as every good burger should be! We didn’t have room for dessert but a delicious cappuccino was still in order! It truly is a magical place to be…wonderful atmosphere, attentive & friendly staff and always mouth watering food!!

Food was great. Everyone was happy with their meals. Top marks to the kitchen. Our server was pleasant and friendly but not attentive. We couldn’t tell if the team was short staffed as we only saw 2-3 servers looking after tables. However, that said our server seemed more interested in the table behind us. She stopped there several times to chat with a person in the side but only came by once to check on us. She seems to know the person. She wasn’t the also team member who stopped in multiple times to chat but not touch our table. It took about 20 min to get our check, we had to ask the other server. Also this not the first time I’ve experienced a server giving more attention to a table of friends, co-workers or someone they knew over a table I’ve been at. In fact my best service has been when I’ve been on my own versus coming in with my family. Food and beer selection are great and we want to come back so hopefully we can see this improved.
