Old Town Tavern — Restaurant in Ann Arbor

Start your lunch with a Gin ‘n’ Tonic (double lime!!) and a cup of homemade chili topped with scallions and shredded cheeses. .. Next, I ordered some taco chips with guacamole : I took some of my chips and put a spoonful of chili on top and added a guac-dollop and I created my very own Nachos Ruben!! Don’t forget to order the chicken quesadillas for your main entree! You’ll love the hint of Mexican spices as you bite into the perfectly grilled flour tortillas. I really liked the generous mix of grilled onions and red pepper that surrounded the chicken . My favorite hot sauces are Cholula and Clancy’s Fancy ... and they have both !! This quesadilla special is plenty for two to share! Finally, be sure to get cozy in one of the two booths at the front of the restaurant: they’re beautifully wood-framed and situated in a nook that’s centered in a large picture window with an excellent view of all the street action on Liberty. Enjoy your lunch!! Make sure you come on Sundays for the free music concerts. Paul Vorn Hagen Quartet is definitely worth catching! I love their rendering of Cuban and Mexican classics like “Sabor a mi.” Paul is the unofficial Latin Jazz Ambassador of Ann Arbor. He is most certainly a local cultural treasure whom you’ll want to give...

I was in Ann arbor and wanted a real pub without a lot of sports tv for a grown up cocktail. I ordered a dark and stormy (it's a smokey version of an old fashioned.) They didn't use a rock glass, didn't have the black strap rum that makes it dark and it tasted like like a tall ginger ale with some Bacardi in it . I switched to a Moscow mule, got the same tall glass of pop and they just switched it to vodka. Both cocktails were featured on the menu. My partner ordered a seabreeze that is supposed to be cranberry and grapefruit but the drink was brown and in the same tall pop glass with big wide plastic straws. I tasted before he did and it was rotten, literally. The food we didn't order was uninspired, tired, fried bar food then we saw going out to other tables. When we arrived,we were met at the door by a staff member and he said he had some room in the back and started leading the way, we thought, but he just kept walking back to the kitchen so we found a place ourselves. Anyway, someone has an awesome building in the heart of an awesome town and is really showing poorly. My own hometown has staff that do so much better and they care about their craft even though they don't have the rich heritage to pull from. Below is what a cocktail is supposed...

I used to come here all the time growing up as a kid, the service was always good, the food even better, and the staff was friendly. I recently took my significant other to old town for drinks and food hoping to recapture my childhood memories and possibly start her own. Upon arrival we sat down and remained ungreeted for quite sometime despite being two of the only four guest. This didn't phase me, I work in the industry I know how things go.

However after greeting our server with a friendly hello things went south. She took our drink order and returned with only mine. I didnt think any thing of it since I ordered a beer and my s.o. Ordered a white Russian. After a few minutes I asked about the white russian to which she replied she forgot. Moments later my s.o. receives her drink. It was very strong! We asked for a new one just less vodka, understanding the first one was made in a rush. Instead we were just handed our check with the Russian taken off, our server did not return to the table. A couple days ago I went again with a co worker around the same time of day to try and give it another chance; but received identical service. Really sad to see this place is not what...
