Excellent team of people working there. Delicious food amazing drinks, knowledgeable bartenders, wonderful atmosphere - friendly, local people at the bar!

I ate at somewhere else tavern on a Friday night, I had the waitress Bree. She was attentive, made accommodations to my drink preferences, funny, and cute! I ordered the Brussels for an appetizers and they were amazing! 10/10. Then I had the caeser frites and that was good as well not as good as the Brussels but still yummy and filling. I am going to become a Friday night regular! If I may make one suggestion, it is to start up some Friday night karaoke!

Really enjoyed this place. First time here, a little worried when we first pulled in, parking lot was jammed and place looked very small, bit we were seated right away. Very nice guy that seated us and waited on us. Checked on us several times , when i ordered my bacon blue burger i asked for tots for my side, he asked if i wanted them loaded, YES. My husband had one of the specials , chicken satay, came with 2 sides, when the waiter brought it out he said he was bringing him extra veggies, don’t know why there where plenty there but okay. Drinks were well made! Food was delicious, entertainment was very good, not too loud. 2 meals, 3 drinks &89.00 before tip.

Party of 4 for lunch. We started with some Onion rings which were nice and crispy and perfectly seasoned & French onion soup, so rich and tasty. Steak tips with mashed & asparagus,. Large portions of tip &bthe were cooked to perfection. Baked haddock with tri-fries & slaw. Very tasty, also cooked perfectly. Fish tacos were presented so beautifully & they took, were cooked to perfection & lastly I had the Mediterranean salad with a side of steak tips. It was so tasty, dressing was homemade & delicious & the tips were cooked perfectly. Our server was so nice, attentive & there if we needed her. This is a beautiful, cozy place & they get it right every time. Consistency is key. Kudos to everyone on their team to make this place run so smoothly.

Hidden gem on the south shore in a 10 sq mile radius of mediocre restaurants (with the exception of a few). I have lived here for years and came for the first time tonight. The atmosphere, the staff and the food is all amazing. I am so mad I didn’t come here sooner. Pictured is the coconut shrimp- which was the best I’ve ever had.

We had a great waitress, Bri Very pleasant, attentive, enjoyed her very much! The chef was also very attentive, caring. We needed something reheated. The setting is awesome, great wall pictures, (we took pics), nicely setup tables. We usually go to Hitching Post, glad this Tavern is their other restaurant. Two great restaurants.

I posted up these photos because I had nothing else, really. I didn't know that they would consider this ab eatery !! LOL

Came in on a Tuesday, had Jaimie for our bartender. Great appetizer, and she helped us pick out some entrees....we will definitely be back!
