Black Sheep Kitchen & Cocktails

A gastropub in downtown Riverbank on Santa Fe Street serving an upscale-casual menu alongside cocktails, one of the more distinctive dining options in town and its most nightlife-appropriate spot. The menu runs toward elevated pub food, burgers and shareable plates done with more care than a standard bar kitchen, paired with a real cocktail list rather than just beer and wine. It draws a mixed crowd of locals looking for a proper night out and visitors passing through, and it's busy enough on weekends that a wait is possible.
