Reviews of Riv Chip Stand (Fish Shop)

Erika Szarka

Best chip stand in the North. Bar none. Make a special trip every time I'm in the area. Great smiles, friendly staff and amazing food.

Fadia Duquette

If I could give this more than 5-stars I would! Excellent food AND service. Some of the best poutine and corn dogs we have ever had. And the milkshakes were also very tasty (creamy and flavorful). Would definitely recommend!

Chris Purvis

Outstanding poutine. Good fast delicious food.

Tanya Schefter

Best Pogo I have ever had!!

Adam B

she made a smile out of mustard amazing staff

Lyne Gauthier

The poutine we ordered was freshly made and the cheese curds were very flavorful. We also ordered a twist cone which wasn't the creamiest but I did not expect much as this was not an ice cream place. A great stop to grab a quick bite.

andrew collins

Great Poutine! Gotta try both of the rival Poutines from these shops across the street from each other and find your fav.

PAUL MEYERS

The best Italian Poutine I have ever had. Love this place

Eric Evans

Exellent food as always. But washroom floor is disgusting

Yuvrit Sujan

best poutine ever!

Jason Jessup

Always great food. I always stop on my way through.

SABRINA JONES-MONETTE

There was a lot of hype around the place, but frankly it didn't live up. The fries and curds were pretty good( and you have the option to layer), but the gravy was too light, too thin, and not flavorful enough. Decent poutine place, but you can get a better one at a good pub.

Derek Sherman

We’re always happy leaving here. Perfect lunch in the summer when stopping through Sturgeon!

Lynn Leblanc

Tasty french fries

Mitch Haslehurst

amazing food, absolutely loved it the wait wasn't too long and the way they handled everything was great just a little expensive :)

Jennifer Charlebois

Damn Good Poutine with Chicken Gravy!

Steve Richer

Richardo Boochoon

Can't wait for summer...

Delicious as always. Best fries and pogo in Northern Ontario.

Kim Boudreau

The poutine is fantastic! I suggest you call ahead before placing your order. It can get very busy.

Ellen Molloy

So wonderful! The owner even explained to us they have moved over to fresh local ingredients. So.. healthier + gourmet + Canadien = amazing!!! Try the Pumpkin Spice Milkshake; honestly, I was hesitant, but WOW! Was incredible and again, house-made fresh Pumpkin Spice base with local ingredients and house-made Pumpkin Marshmallows on top (I wish I had photographed). Note seating is outside and this is a 3-season restaurant, so your time is limited, to enjoy for 2020, or you'll have to wait until Spring to enjoy this yumminess!!

Sam Cayen

Always great poutine

Craig Pakkala

Jenny Nicole

Great fries great shakes... chilli dog was extremely disappointing... regular no name wiener. Cheap bun and what tasted like canned chilli. 5 star fries and shakes 1 star chilli dog equals a 3star rating. You won't be disappointed as long as you stay with what they are good at,,, fries, poutine and shakes..

Julie Labelle

My wife likes the poutine

Daniel Fathers

Great food...friendly staff

Michael Colynuck

Dropped to 3 star from 4. The pogo was good but they use a small wiener not like other stands that use a bigger one for 50¢ more and the milkshake ok for syrup based.

Liam Rusty_

The best poutine I've ever tasted, albeit a bit pricey! Worth it as a treat once and a while though!

James Antinozzi

Fast and good service, quickly served and quality food. Definitely will be making the stop in sturgeon again for this place.

Mark T

Classic French fries served hot and fresh and many chip stand favorites. Portions are large and tasty. The eating area is weather shielded and clean. Sturgeon Falls boasts a couple of these. This one is a worthy competitor.

Krystyna Byers (KrystynaByersWriting)

There was another chip stand across the street, I walked by both, RIV asked me what I wanted, I said I was looking and wondered which stand had better fries. RIV said they (RIV) did... so I ordered RIV and never looked back.

Daniel Pineault

Excellent food

Eric Tennant (Redneck)

Food was fresh and tasty

We went for the Heartberry shake to support Residential School Survivors. Miigwetch RIV for such a lovely fundraiser, featuring local produce!

Charlotte Louttit-Kijekijik

Great service, they're doing all they can to keep each other and the public safe during the times but the poutine wasn't great (unpopular opinion)

Olivia Blais

Poutine merely average and the Montreal smoked meat sandwich should not be on the menu. Horrible. And, they charge $7.00 for it.

Richard Caissie (DEMONITE)

Very good food, friendly staff. Accurate order, no errors

Darien Taylor

We visit Sturgeon all the way from Sudbury several times during the summer for a pogo and poutine!

Omg. This place has the best poutine in the planet. I drove one hour with girlfriend to try it. She was 100% right. I love everything about this place. Staff is extremely courteous and helpful.

2021 Update: When Ford opened up travel in Ontario - allowing Ontarians to travel within our own province while being 100% respectful of COVID protocols, my accomplice and I drove from Ottawa to Sturgeon Falls for Riv chips. What a beautiful drive too (Ontario is such a beautiful piece of our planet). The Riv blew it out of the water!!! Best fries! The box was loaded - no way the lid could be closed on it. I always ask for mine extra crispy - and every chip was to perfection! My accomplice had fish with his. His must have been pretty good too - as he was completely unresponsive to conversation while he was eating his. -------------------------------------------------- Definately a good little place to drop in for some fast food fare when passing through Sturgeon Falls along the 17 (it's in the town proper and very close to the 17). Busy spot / lots of fast food options. Reasonably priced. They offer a decent veggie burger, and offer gluten-free hamburger buns. Reasonable prices.

Dals L

Great food clean place & fast service ????

Franc Gregorin

Very delicious! I recommend!

R Friesen

Legendary chip stand, puts Sturgeon Falls on the map. I've never had a bad experience or bad food from here 5/5 stars

Brent D.

Always good food here, but don't care for the new pogo batter they're using. Since pogo's are the main reason we go, this is an issue.

Daniel Rooke

Best pogos in town. Freshly hand dipped, deep-fried to a golden brown and painted with mustard. Poutine is also a winner. Worth the wait, or call in your order for pickup.

Best chips stand in northern Ontario

Mike Krueger

The best pogo's

Sam M

It is especially fun to watch the lineup at the competing chip stand across the road and imagine it like some kind of gang type situation where you've taken a side and the other side is fundamentally wrong and you hate them for it but probably their poutine is good too. I wouldn't know cause I'm no traitor.

Travis Gibbons

This was the small poutine! Rich gravy, crunchy fries good amount of cheese. Definately the best poutine in the area! I'll be back.

Chantal Gentili

Always love the food at Riv's. Always exceptional quality and care in everything they serve! The only thing I don't care for is the judgmental stares and comments I witness while waiting for my food. I mean, yes I'm fat, but you don't have to shame me because I'm ordering food just like you. On top of that, no I don't speak french, but I understand certain words so be kind to everyone people. Don't use your language to slander and degrade someone in secret. It's 2021 and that's not cool.

mike johnston

They make their own corn dogs! And have delicious fries, poutines and other meals. No vegan pogo's but you can't have everything, ah but you can have the fries!

Nancy Fontaine

I make it a point to stop here at least once a season. It is, in my opinion, the best chip stand in the area.

Debbie Ford

Tanya Whitford

Best poutine place around.

Eric Majalahti

It's ok nothing to write home about..kids cooking burgers and fries..

Ashley savard

It's a popular spot for fries, and a few other items, across the street from another fries seller. I'd heard about it from my sister and Mom who'd visited it in the past while driving between North Bay and Sault Ste. Marie. I was looking forward to the visit while vacationing in the area (at either chip seller). I ordered the Poutine (mixed) size medium, and a cold Pepsi. They were a bit busy so it took maybe 10 minutes to get the order. They called out my name, but it was the French version so I didn't initially react until I saw no one else was answering. I guess the large French population in the area can make that happen. Anyway, it was a reasonable sized box and was overflowing with fries, cheese curds and gravy. I'm sure there were enough calories for the whole day in that one serving! As for the taste, it was pretty bland frankly. The fries weren't that great on their own (I don't think they double-cook their fries to get them crispy) and the gravy was just brown, and not much else. The amount of cheese was okay. I think the French's Poutine gravy mix that I use at home is better than what I got that day. That being said, It's a nice spot to meet your friends on a summer day for lunch, but not on my list of places I have to eat at again.
