This place is a gem! We were staying at a cabin nearby and decided to check this place out--so glad we did! The fish and chips were excellent! A light layer of batter with a nice amount of crisp, and big thick juicy fish. The coleslaw was good like homemade, and you can get tots instead of fries, which were also crispy and delicious. The pizza is to die for! Seriously, the best pizza we've ever had, and we've ordered a lot of pizza from a lot of places. If this place were in my city, it would be the only pizza I would ever order! It was even awesome reheated for breakfast, and I am NOT a pizza for breakfast type of person, lol! The atmosphere is everything you would expect for a "cabin in the woods" and the service was friendly with a smile. We will definitely be making this a stop EVERY time we're up that way! :)

I LOVE this place! Stepping out of your car you can smell pine trees. The food is delicious, staff is incredible and it’s in a lovely location. Big windows so we saw a little squirrel running up the tree. Try the cobbler! You will definitely not be disappointed.

This place always has great food and friendly service. Love the Creekside Sauce on their chicken wings and the Bison Burger. Great patio and music when the weather is warm.

Walked in just before 6 on Saturday. I approached the bar / window at the front and the lady working asked if there was something she could help me with. I thought to myself that was an odd question to be asked walking into a restaurant, but I said we were looking to be seated, she asked “are you just getting here now?” I was pretty confused by the unwelcoming question and disposition she had from the start and suddenly I wondered if they were closing. Nope, open till 9 and live was music playing. No big deal, maybe she’s having an off night so we sat outside and waited for 15 minutes while her and 1 other server visited every table but ours repeatedly to check in with them and to serve food and drinks. We were walked past, looked at directly and then ignored multiple times until finally we ran out of patience to get served and walked out as they so clearly were hoping for.

We always stop at Creekside Tavern when we are on Vaction in Scottdale. This year, it's under new management. A++++.Our server Izzy. Hope that's right. Young lady still in high school. She has a great future in hospitality. My husband and I both ordered the bison burger. Izzy recommended. YummyWe should have split. Perfectly cooked medium. Loved the bacon jam. ?General Manger sat with us, updating on all the improvements.We will be back.

We are in Christopher Creek preparing to conduct an estate sale. After work we stopped here for dinner and it was so good. My husband and I split the Carne Asada Tacos and the Buffalo chicken sandwich with tater tots- so good! They were both delicious.Jamie was our server and she was such a sweetheart! Patient, polite and attentive. Would recommend anyone to stop by!
