Connect with Top-Rated Restaurants in Lombard!

We're a casual dining spot located in the heart of historic downtown Lombard, specializing in fresh, simply prepared Midwestern comfort foods. Our intimate setting with vintage, conversation level music and a purposeful lack of televisions accommodates about fifty people inside and, on nice days, another thirty out. As Lombardians, we embrace our history and community. Subtle nods to both can be seen in our decor, menu and logo. We are crazy for lilacs and want to share our pride with everyone. We source our ingredients locally, including a few herbs and vegetables grown in our gardens, and aim for fresh, wholesome and homemade versus pre-prepared and frozen.

At Pinched on the River, experience the unique and eclectic Mediterranean-inspired food with a pinch of this and a pinch of that.

Our menu offers a variety of dishes, including bowls, sandwiches, and desserts, all made with fresh and flavorful ingredients.
