Tapps Ale House

Great food! Bacon cheese fries are amazing. Great selection of drinks. Sandwiches were awesome. Great staff.

We’d heard positive things about Tapps but unfortunately, none of them applied to our lunch experience there. A Saturday afternoon lunchtime and their dining room front doors were locked and nobody was inside (dark and looked closed), but nope, entered through the bar entrance into a cold, clinical, concrete, and above all else, quiet building. Eerily quiet.
Our server was nice and attentive, but our food (for being one of maybe 2 tables dining) took quite awhile to arrive. $ 40 for two adults, a toddler and a child was ridiculous. Husband’s turkey/​bacon pita shouldn’t have had «bacon» listed in the title — what was there of it was little red squiggles in the bottom. My garden salad had neither the listed «mixed greens» (it was just romaine) nor grape tomatoes (3 sad slices of regular tomato.) The tastiest thing was the kid’s chicken fingers. If you want basic bar grub, I would say one exit sound Houndstooth or Jeffreys is a better choice, if not for the menu variety and prices, but for the liveliness. The tomb-​like quality of Tapps was just too weird.

I really wanted to like this place. A coworker told me about it and told me I’d love it. Unfortunately that wasn’t the case :-(
The bar area was full and so they sat us in the main dining area where we would be the only ones. Our waiter was very cool and attentive. I was disappointed by their drink selection. Nothing really to catch our eyes. And everything pretty expensive. We had 2 beers and my mom had to return her wine as it tasted old, without flavor.
We had: Philly cheesesteak, shrimp poboy, monster burger and Greek burger. The two burgers were good. The monster burger has the fried egg but they over cooked the egg so the yolk didn’t pop. The Greek burger was interesting, I like the tzatziki sauce. The phillycheesesteak and shrimp poboy weren’t bad but we felt it wasn’t enough. It was a lot of bread… All 4 entrees were served with fries and the fries were pretty good.

Went there for first time last night, and found it to be a great place to go too outside of the normal franchise places. Great Micro-​Beer selection, definitely recommend trying the Jalepeno stuffed Shrimp! As well as the Monster Burger !!!

Boring menu. Less than helpful staff. Just don’t.
Great location and large place. Sad such a great space isn’t being used to its full potential.

My favorite place to take guests from out of town. Food and service are consistently excellent.

Awesome! Went Monday evening and got the .50 cent wings… delicious, and happy hour beer on tap priced right! good! So glad this place is right down the street from me. Will be a repeat customer :) for sure!

Great service, awesome selection of brews & yummy food! You can’t go wrong with this spot.
