After seeing a movie, my wife and I stopped in for a beer and something to eat. No issues with parking, as there is a huge parking lot out front. The inside was large, too. Plenty of seats at a very spacious bar, which was well staffed by a very attentative bar staff; many hi tops and tables. One small detail for the ladies, there are 'hooks' under the bar top for pocketbooks and handbags to be hung. There were many choices for beer, and you can also get flights. The food was amazing ... with the 'wow' factor definitely working. I ordered a 'Fungi' burger ... now don't go barfing at the name; fungi is the scientific name for mushrooms. That burger also had caramelized onions, Swiss Cheese, with a Peppercorn Demi. French fries were also on the plate; I might add a very generous portion. The burger was cooked to perfection, which I ordered medium rare. My wife ordered the Fish Tacos ... I really don't need to say anything, just look at that picture! I will definitely return, as I want to try out some other food items, and I highly recommend the Tap House Grill.

Where should I start…looked at the menu and decided on either the baked haddock or the margherita flatbread. It all was determined by the vegetable of the day for the haddock. Only waited 10 minutes to be seated but waited 17 minutes before someone came around for our beverage order. We opted for water with lemon. I asked what the vegetable of the day was. I was happily informed that it was butternut squash. With that I decided in the baked haddock with butternut squash and wild rice, like described on the menu. Husband ordered baked haddock as well but opted for fresh vegetables to dip. Water came quickly but no lemon. It tasted like pool water…super chlorine tasting. The lemon for our waters arrived with our meals. I looked at the meal and asked the waitress about the butternut squash. She said that apparently they changed the vegetable. I kindly told Her that my meal decision was based on the vegetable and was originally going for the margherita flatbread. I also noticed that the meal had mashed potato’s and not wild rice (not as if a substitute was asked). She told me that she would order me the margherita flatbread and I could take it home (no charge). My husbands also came with mashed potatoes but he didn’t mind. Now onto the food. My husband said his meal was cooked perfectly and tasted good. I asked him to fast my haddock. He agreed that it tasted different than his. I ended up leaving the haddock on the plate and packaged up with vegetables and potatoes (in my own take home container). I was brought a dish of wild rice about 5 minutes after my meal was delivered. So my dinner consisted of wild rice 😡. My flatbread came and I did not inspect it. Wasn’t until I got home I realized that they gave me the Buffalo chicken flatbread and NOT my margherita one I originally wanted. Don’t think we’ll be going back here anytime soon. SUPER DISAPPOINTED IN THE WHOLE MEAL. Don’t know how it is that they are getting ready to celebrate their 10 years in business.

I came across this place on my way to play pool and it looked interesting. I went because I was looking for dinner with company and this place had good reviews already. Overall, the atmosphere was great and the staff is super friendly. However the wait was atrocious and the food was something I could not bare to finish. I ordered the BBQ brisket so I already knew it was going to take awhile, but my table waited an hour since ordering. It was just the brisket and two burgers that were coming to our table. When the brisket came, it looked tasty at first. I had a generous slab on my plate, but it was extremely dry, tough, and it barely had any BBQ on it other than the slim spread that was covering the top of this squared meat. Not to mention that the fries that came with it were soggy, ironically. This meal soon became one of the few plates that I ever left unfinished. I did not order another plate as I was worried it may take a long time as well and/or turn out to be unsavory. Given my situation, my SO was kind enough to let me have a couple bites of the smokehouse burger he ordered. This is where things changed. I admit, the burger was pretty good so maybe it was just the plate I ordered? I don't know. Regardless, I let the waitress know and after she offered to bring something else of which I declined, she brought the check without charging for the $15 brisket. She was kind and I tipped her on the check as if the brisket was included. She provided excellent service keeping our drinks filled and checking in on us throughout our dinner. I have to say, I did not have the best first impression but given the staff and the other food I tried, I think I'll return. I'll just have to order something else on the menu which won't be a problem because there were so many other options I wanted to try before chosing the brisket. I'll update this review after giving it another shot.

This place has decent food. We had been driving by it for the better part of a year and finally decided to try it. My boyfriend enjoyed his drink very much, and the cornbread appetizer they offered us when our food was late was tasty enough. It felt kind of like a chain streak house trying to be something a bit more than they were. Don't get me wrong, we each enjoyed our meals well enough, but when they'd forgotten to place our orders, and tried to cover it with the complimentary cornbread, and then forgot my boyfriend's chili and tried to charge us for it... It just seemed like maybe the management flow wasn't as smooth as it could be. I think we agreed we would both go back again if it wasn't so busy, but it would also be because we wanted to stay local and not go far. I don't think it would necessarily be either of our first choices if we could go anywhere.
