Boscos - River Market Little Rock

No Longer In Business

I know it's closed, review as I recall.

Oh dear. So, let’s start with some positives. The location’s great, right in the touristy part of downtown Little Rock near plenty of other drinking venues. The bartender was really nice and kept my glass of ice water topped up. That’s about the extent of the good things I have to say. It was probably a bad sign that the massive bar/restaurant was practically empty at 1:30pm on a Saturday afternoon. The beers were irredeemably poor. Awful. Almost every single one of the 8 beers I sampled were massive diacetyl bombs. They were so disgusting and strongly infected that my hands smelled like butter for the rest of the afternoon from holding the sample glasses. Either the brewer’s clueless or doesn’t care that they’re serving beer in that condition. Overall, shocking stuff. There’s too much good beer out there to bother with places like this.

Nice location right on the river, and next to a farmer’s market which is open on Saturdays. Parking is a problem, best to arrive on foot or by trolly. Large place, large U shaped bar, brery equipment visible. Huge back porch with a great view. Beers were buttery, didn’t care for any of them, sctually. We didn’t eat. Service was very friendly. Customers were scarce.

In a historic part of town with nice shops, overlooking the water, this a great location. Big with a big circular bar, this is setup well. Service was pretty good, but I was the only one there. Selection was their own beers which were unfortunately bad to mediocre. Food was sub par as well, but prices were good. I would give this a miss.

I can’t complain too much about this place since I didn’t pay for the meal. It’s located in a big building on the main drag but parking is a bit scarce so be prepared to pay cash. The beer is mediocre and the server didn’t seem to know much about it. The food was solid but not spectacular though they were pretty good with groups. I probably wouldn’t go back if I had to pay for it.

I didn’t eat there, but the food looked decent. The beers on the other hand ranged from bad to mediocre. 8 taps, but unfortunately, all house beers. Service was good. Lots of regular customers, so at least some people must like the beer.

Pretty chill place, even late on Friday night (unless they have an event). I couldn’t tell it was a chain, which I guess is how they like it. Knowledgeable and friendly staff, and I gave them "10" for selection since they have 8 of their beers on tap, which is pretty good for a brewpub (I usually see 4-5). The scottish ale was great, I want to go back and try some others!

Excellent food and well versed servers House brews, though not always in this brewery, that rotate around a core of 4 or 5 standard taps Great for business or family. Many regulars bond together around the mug club

I liked this place. Right in the heart of the River Market (which has a pretty small heart). The place has good food and solid beers. The had 8 of their own brews on tap when we visited it, which ranged from mediocre to solid (though they become much more solid when you compared them to what else is available in Arkansas). I’ll be back.

First one of these I have been too, apprently there are 4 of them. Decent selection of beer - about 6-7 of their own, pretty good quality. Food was good - had the cedar plank salmon, lots of flavor. This place did have a little bit of a "chain" kind of feel, but nice overall.
