“ Food, service, and atmosphere were fantastic!!!! A great spot to enjoy a laid back meal! Crab dip is amazing!! Burger was juicy and delicious! The pound cake with strawberries and ice cream was outstanding! We thoroughly enjoyed eating here!!!! ”
“ Crab dip is a must. Raw oysters are great....you'll probably have to ask for the crackers ;p but they have Tabasco on the table now which is a big plus for me. Fried oyster po boy was great. Very happy they have started offering oysters again, from Indian Pass most recently. Great draft beer selection. Hope that they start offering oyster city brewing company beer again once they open back up. Always has been a treat going here. Sad to see the grilled fish tacos and grilled fish "catch of the day" entrees are no longer offered. You can only get fried fish... Every place offers fried fish. This place used to offer some of the best grilled fish in the area, and it's a tragedy they don't anymore. ”
“ Went on a Thursday around 2pm, great time to really enjoy your peaceful environment and excellent food. I had the fish sandwich, whitetail fish, twice the size of my bun and very good, even the French fries were great. And the key lime cocktail just topped it off. Sitting inside or out. Outside your Sitting along the roof lines so you have an excellent view of the quait little town and the water. I definitely recommend stopping here to fill up and recharge . ”
“ Stopped in for some apps after Christmas tree lighting and Santa visit. Had the Duck Fried and crab dip. Both were better than expected but also very rich tasting. Good to share with a few people. Would return for regular fare. ”
“ Allison hands down, best at what she does, which was everything. She was the server, bartender, food runner and busser. She never missed a beat! There were hardly any empty seats and she took great care of everyone with the sweetest of personalities! I had Ernies fabulous Reuben and my husband had the scrumptious fish tacos. Our food came out quickly, hot and cooked to perfection. The Tap Room is always delicious, but today, Allison made it special! She is their biggest asset! ”
