- Drew JaynesDecember 31, 2014Avoid the live music on Tuesday nights. Great musicians, terrible vocals.
Annie ODecember 18, 2011They started not letting people in because of "fire codes," but I think it's because they were on Top Chef and are trying to be exclusive now. So sad that they do that in an unsafe location.
SarahDecember 31, 2011Great place for an afternoon beer but the Tavern has a limited food selection.
