    Best burgers in the area
    Kyle L.

    Best burgers and service in the area. Staff is terrific and welcoming. Better than any other bar in the area for burgers and beer.

    a happy hour sign

    Let me start by saying that I LOVE A DIVE BAR! And this place is the text book definition of a dive bar. This place is what looks like an addition to someones home. You walk in and it is noisy in a good way.....people laughing and having conversations, the jukebox, the TVs..... It's really small in this bar, with a long bar and a few small tables. The one thing that made me tilt my head in disbelief was there are no bar stools! I've never been in a bar without bar stools! The drinks are more than reasonably priced. A regular told us about the food and informed us that the kitchen hours are a little goofy, but if we are in the area during the times that the kitchen is open, we need to stop in for a burger. (Just for the record, I am a sucker for a great burger!) I hope they never change the way they do things.... Except maybe the bar stool thing. Only thing I wasn't okay with.

    A couple folks at the bar.

    But don't let that deter you from visiting this historical gem, which in its history has been a farm/ hotel/ midway point between Eerie and Pittsburgh where stagecoaches stopped in yonder years.

Well, today was the day, and we had high expectations based on the photos and other Yelp reviews that we saw before dinner. It, unfortunately, did not live up to our expectations. The outdoor seating area is nice, and the entire restaurant gives off an upscale Primanti's vibe. We ordered the Pabst burger, Fried chicken sandwich, buffalo wings, and kids' chicken tenders. The French fries ended up being the favorite part of our meals. Everything else was so-so. Warning on the wings... They came out incredibly hot. I ate everything else in my meal and came back to them, but they were still almost too hot to eat. The service was solid, and the food came to our table quickly. I understand that "Tap House" is directly in the restaurant's name, but the patrons at the table next to us were enjoying Happy Hour heavily, and their conversation, during our time there, eroded into a significant amount of loud cussing. It definitely made me second-guess whether I would go here with my kids again. I think we'll give it another try, and I hope that today was just an off day.

The owners are friendly and see to it that everyone is enjoying themselves and relaxing. They care about the community and often have fund raisers to help various causes. The popcorn machine is one of my favorite features and puts out a great FREE snack to go with your beer. And the beer is ALWAYS COLD which I love any day of the year !! They have an area with pool tables televisions and seating so you can watch your friends play. I would give them a "10" if they had a full working kitchen ! But they do put out various sandwiches, fries, fresh deli subs...that everyone seems to enjoy. The place is huge with plenty of room at the bar so you don't have to worry about not having a seat. They have a party like atmosphere for sports games to watch on 1 of the MANY t.v.s and even puts out a free buffet for when teams reach playoffs ! And they have a Jolly Roger flag that they raise with the help of patrons to pose with when our Pirates win ! There is always 1 or more of the 3 owners there mingling with the patrons and seeing to everyone's comfort!

    I would put zero star if I could. Got thrown out of the bar with the waitress yelling " get out of…read moremy bar " just because one of my friend had a foreign ID. My friend was over 21 (23 in fact) and would have been ok to order soft. The waitress was just rude and inappropriate. Drunk? I came a couple times in the past because I am a local but I will never come back.
