Roadkill burger
Marla K.

DELICIOUS!! Best juicy Lucy's around!! We tried the roadkill, the saucy sally and one other I can't remember. It was so good. Onion rings and sweet potato fries were amazing too. Our waitress was amazing and friendly and had the coolest blue eye shadow! She kept checking in with us. Loved her. Thanks for a great experience!!

Really great burgers that live up to why they were Voted #1 in St. Paul/Minneapolis. Getting to this place can be a challenge and the parking lot needs a bit of work around it, but it was well worth the trip for these great Juicy Lucy's right near the MSP airport. The place is nostalgic and definitely has some history of being here. The food came out fresh, hot, and fresh. Our waitress was very nice, and joked around about us being from out of town which half of us were. They were very impressed with the Juicy Lucy's flavor and crispy French fries. Beer was cold and refreshing. The only drawback is the location of getting there in a direct route which is location, location, location. Definitely would recommend trying these burgers here. I miss seeing the Pulltabs here as well as they stopped selling them after Covid

Bleu Cheese Burger
Katrina M.

Came on a Thursday afternoon around 5pm. Easy to find seating in the bar area. Happy hour all day on Thursday!! Jalapeño margarita was good. Exactly what you'd expect. I had the classic bleu cheese burger. Good My boyfriend had the roadhouse juicy Lucy with sweet potato fries that had marshmallow bleu sauce that came with it. Personally I thought the sauce was gross, but he loved it. Overall, it's a good spot to stop in and grab a burger and have a cheap drink. Good pricing.

American Juicy Lucy

The service was fast and great. Very friendly bar staff. The fries were hot, fresh, and seasoned perfectly. I went out on a limb to try the juicy lucy that everyone raved about but that is the bad part of the experience. The burger was dry all the way through (very overcooked) and was just extremely disappointing. I hope to try it again one day and have a different experience as the hype is not just local

Patty melt
Nancy W.

It's been a long time since I've been here, and now I remember why I stopped coming. It had been so long, I thought perhaps things had improved. It's honestly even worse now. I can think of nothing good to say about this meal. I arrived hungry, and left hungry because the food was so unappetizing I stopped eating after a few bites. I ordered a patty melt, which is my burger of choice. This has to be the smallest burger I've ever encountered; the burger patty wasn't much larger than a slider burger. To add insult to injury, the patty was also served well done and tasted burned. The fries that came with the burger were cold and had an off taste, making me think they were cooked in rancid or old fry oil. The waitress was unwelcoming and curt. The table we were seated at was sticky and hadn't been wiped down. They try and force you to download an app to scan and pay the bill, which I wasn't about to do. I honestly would have gotten a tastier and cheaper meal at McDonalds, which sets a pretty low bar.

Broasted chicken is hot and fresh, it's always my go to unless I'm in the mood for a juicy Lucy. I've never had a negative experience here.

Second try and it was fantastic. Rainy day at the pub, having some beers and tried the Deluxe…read moreConey Island Pizza. Now we have a conundrum the next time we have to choose a pizza type because it was fantastic! Which do we get next time? Both? The sausage and jalapeno was spicy and savory, and the Coney Island was like a hotdog and a pizza had a baby and the best traits of both parents went into it! The Coney pizza ..for those who are curious...is a pizza with a Coney sauce base, cut up Ambassador dogs (the best kind), plenty of mozzarella and cheddar cheeses, and then topped with chopped onions and mustard. It literally tasted like a hotdog...only it was pizza. Just terrific! It was a good day and we'll be back again and again. Again, it's not a fancy place...it's a comfortable and friendly place where you enjoy an afternoon or evening with your fellow humans. The best kind of place :)

Oh man. Where to begin... I've been going to tappers since 2010, before I was even 21. It was the…read morespot for the neighborhood usuals and it was a great atmosphere. But as the new owners have taken over, things shifted. Generally it was fine but in the last couple months things have gone downhill. The last straw was when I went in for a single drink with a friend, early in the evening and when we got our tabs, we filled out our receipts and left our tips and went on with our evening. The next morning, I was called by my bank about a suspicious tip amount that I had recently left (aka the evening before). These cheapskate cheaters and thieves working at the bar had changed my tip amount egregiously. On one single pint, I think I paid $7/$8? And my tip amount was over $30 making my one beer almost $40. If that is what tappers has become, it is no longer that quaint and unique neighborhood dive bar that Chris and Steve had bought back in the early 2010s. The icing on the top was that one of the owners was actually our bar tender that evening. Slimey and shady and when we called to inquire, we were hung up on. Let this place go back to the dogs. At least the drunks and townies that used to call Tappers their neighborhood pub weren't stiffing the customers.

On a Sunday night we got the added bonus of Happy Hour drinks and (all day) and $3 off all appetizers. We started with the cheese curds, Walleye fingers, fried pickles, and the free popcorn which was surprisingly some of the best I've ever had! Freshly made with coconut oil, it was light, crunchy and perfectly salted! All the fried foods including the gigantic onion rings were battered thin and crispy. Our server Ashley, was super, friendly, helpful, efficient, and accommodating! We were able to do family style so we could all try everything. The turkey and wild rice soup was thick and creamy. The pan fried walleye was a nice white, moist fish. Our choice of side was the sweet potato waffle fries which exceeded my expectations. We finally got to try a "juicy Lucy" (Juicy Lulu here) which was American cheese oozing between two thin beef patties served in a big soft bun. Everything was great including the prices here with short beers for only $3! 4.5 stars for food. 5 stars for service and gener portions. Thank you for fulfilling our Minnesota experience!

The vibes were also off be square we inadvertently went there during Thur night bingo and it was super crowded and just not a fun scene. I hope to not come back here.

Here are some things I have tried in the past and enjoyed: Southwest Power Bowl, Fried Pickles, and…read moreCheese Curds. I've had a lot of things here over the years. I guess I just never reviewed this place until now. There's an outside patio area where you can look at the river and watch the boats. After you're finished with your meal, as your leaving the marina go straight at the stop sign and park in that parking lot. Take a walk down the trail and check out the old swing bridge. It's a nice view. They also have live music on the patio sometimes and also have corn hole/bean bag toss leagues and competitions. This day I came to have a beer, and enjoy the weather. I had the black and bleu tenderloin salad. It was good, satisfying. Not amazing, but good. The only thing I didn't like was that the steak came out on a skewer. Nothing wrong with it really I just would have preferred it in the salad so I didn't have to pull it off the skewer. I also ordered the fried pickles which I have had before but enjoy very much. They are very cheesy but I think the pickle balances the cheese out or something. Usually if something is really cheesy like that it kind of grosses me out, but this doesn't. As I sat enjoying my beer and food, I overheard the guy at the neighboring table say that this place has his favorite Bloody Mary/the best Bloody Mary he said, (except for the casino, he said that one is good too, not sure what casino but hey). I have a different opinion on their Bloody Mary. It is not my favorite. When I had it in the past, I thought it was watered down, lacking flavor, but maybe it was just that day. Who knows! However my mom tried one of the coffee cocktails at the same visit and had a similar experience. So, I just stick to beer when I come here.

The ambiance was your typical marine pub with the exception of what appeared to be a regular who was very loud, foul mouthed and quite obnoxious. Even though the food is good and the service friendly we won't return. I feel sorry for the staff that have to put up with such a crude, foul, loud patron. Obviously he was never taught to use his "INSIDE VOICE".
