Answering the often-heard question of “what’s for dinner?” is easier for the families living at Riverstone, the master-planned community just north of Fresno. The dining options continue to grow at the community’s next-door retail district known as Riverwalk, which, when complete, is envisioned to become a 50-acre destination offering a live-work-shop-play dynamic unique to the North Fresno area.

Offering a new quick-serve market and a variety of fast casual dining options, the Riverwalk retail destination brings everyday convenience and great food close to home.
Featuring a contemporary-agrarian design aesthetic accented by creative landscaping and water features, Riverwalk is planned to include condominiums, offices, restaurants, retail stores and a movie theater.

The Dutch Bros. Coffee at Riverwalk continues to serve up its specialty coffee drinks and smoothies to people on the go, and it has become a hometown favorite of Riverstone residents. Dutch Bros. Coffee started as a single espresso pushcart in a small Oregon town, and today has more than 400 locations in nine western states. The company is also known for giving back. In fact, in 2011, Dutch Bros. Coffee donated over $1 million to nonprofit organizations, including local food banks and Boys & Girls Clubs of America.

Also at Riverwalk is Papi’s Mex Grill, a local favorite that has been serving authentic and delicious Mexican food in the Valley for almost a decade. The award-winning Papi’s focuses on grilled Mexican dishes like fajitas, seafood specialties and amazing tacos. Papi’s is also very well known for serving amazing margaritas with all-day happy hours on Sundays and Mondays.

Coming soon to Riverwalk will be Blast & Brew, an American eatery and tap house. The ever-popular restaurant is known for its innovative comfort food, and a wide selection of self-pour taps serving a variety of local and regional craft beers and wines. The eatery is also known for its intimate full-service bar inviting you to a fun and dynamic atmosphere. Situated right next door will be its famous sister company, Me-n-Ed’s Pizza. Destined to be a local favorite, Me-n-Ed’s will offer delivery and take-out for those who want to enjoy the delicious, award-winning, brick-oven-baked pizza from the comfort of their own homes.

“For many of our resident families, a big part of looking forward to life is coming together for a great meal at a local restaurant,” said Riverstone’s Tim Jones. “We wanted Riverwalk’s exciting and eclectic dining options to keep them happy…and always coming back for more.” Also anticipated to open soon at Riverwalk is Judy’s Donuts, another local favorite. Judy’s will offer its everyday collection of bars, twists, cakes, buttermilks, French crullers, classic glazed donuts—as well as specialty creations ideal for birthdays and anniversaries such as its Panda and Pink Unicorn donuts and decadent berry-and-cream-stuffed croissants.
