From the same owner as Alderman's, Emmet's Tavern (formerly Joby C's Midtown Tavern) is a new establishment on Leavenworth street. For reference, it's across the street from 11-worth Cafe (because all Yelpers know where that is!). Mark, the owner of Emmet's, has made some major changes to the place already and there are big plans for this place to make it your next new hangout.
Plentiful tables in this wide open place. It's much bigger inside than what it looks from the outside. A roller door is along the front to let fresh air in on a nice day/night. A billiards table is here along with a couple of dart boards for those cricket fans out there. Another room behind the bar has shuffleboard. Cool, huh?
Great staff here and a decent selection of your favorite brew and a good selection of distilled spirits. The bar, where the bartender stands, is good sized while flat screen TVs adorn the walls above said bar. Sure you have the old school beers (Old Style, PBR) but also some of the more classy ones (Lagunitas IPA and others).
This place will become popular; it just has that vibe to it already! I'll be back again soon. read more
