about by the river

by the river, formerly known as The Blue Room, has always been recognised as a fixture in Ballina’s fine dining. For the past two years it has solely catered to private functions. However, we want to make this a venue which the public can enjoy on a regular basis.

Therefore we have remodelled it as a groovy lounge & tapas bar serving delicious food accompanied by a great wine and cocktail selection.

By The River is undoubtedly the place to be to enjoy Ballina’s best sunsets and uninterruptable views of the Richmond River. Whenever you want to have something to eat or just sip your cocktail or wine while listening to pleasant tunes, come join us to watch the setting sun disappear.
