![]() With 32 outdoor seats facing spectacular views of the Fox River dam’s roaring rapids, River Tyme Bistro cheekily claims to have the “best dam view” in Appleton. This bistro is the new creation from the owners of Fox River Tours, Christine Williams and Candice Mortara, and is the year-round “sister” to the riverboats River Tyme and River Tyme Too. One of these new additions which opened June 19 is River Tyme Bistro in Appleton’s Atlas Mill. Though COVID-19 has caused many setbacks, it hasn’t stopped new businesses from opening and providing more fun, unique dining opportunities in the Fox Cities. Feel free to bring your pets and dine in style with Rye’s first come, first served outdoor seating and experience the food and view that will always make the Fox Cities home. Rye is hoping to keep this seating, possibly adding live entertainment in the future. Wanting to plan ahead? Rye has online ordering through Facebook, Instagram and their website, allowing customers to plan up to seven days in advance. The eight outdoor tables are each equipped with a QR code, allowing customers to opt for online ordering and payment, yet with servers still waiting on each table. New sanitation methods, redesigning and fresh paint have accompanied their reopening which occurred May 26. “The whole restaurant has become a new concept,” Morse says. Yet these new tables are not the only changes Rye made in response to COVID. Chef Nick Morse described the project as “team-building” as the entire kitchen staff hand-built custom, wooden dividers as “a way to create a physical-barrier between tables.” Decked out with vibrant flowers and bold black and white umbrellas, these tables offer beautiful dining and a close-up view of Appleton’s bustling downtown. Yet this classy seating was no easy feat. Walking downtown in Appleton, “spur of the moment” and “pandemic-related” would be the last phrases used to describe the newly added outdoor seating at Rye Restaurant.
