    Philly steak sub with fries.
    Kenny S.

    The sub was delicious as all of the meals I've had here have been. Get the fries! The service was good too.

    While heading to Erie, I stopped by McKean Tavern (TAV) for lunch. The place has been in business for many years and the current ownership has done a great job in renovating this local hangout. The atmosphere inside is welcoming, very low key, and clean. I took a seat at a high top table in the front bar area, since all of the regulars were sitting up at the bar enjoying their beers and chatting about their fishing trips. There is also a back dining area and an outdoor patio area in the back. The bartender promptly brought me a menu and took my drink order. For lunch, I ordered the Turkey Club ($7.99 plus tax) served with kettle chips. My lunch was served to me in under 10 minutes. The stacked turkey club was HUGE, which had lots of sliced deli turkey, thick slices of bacon, American cheese (orange), tomato, lettuce, mayo between thick slices of toasted bread. The chips were crunchy and were salty. The turkey club was very good and priced very reasonably. I was very full afterwards. The check was brought over soon after I finished lunch. Overall, McKean Tavern (TAV) is a good friendly local bar and restaurant!

    Unwelcoming setting unless you know people there. Food and drinks overpriced, and management is a serious disappointment.

    We dine in as well as take out. The meals are always delicious. The new addition on the back is beautiful with a warming fireplace

At first I was concerned that they may have only the bud, coors, miller type of beer selections but they had some good ipas including goose island one one from west coast. The pierogies were delicious and had about 12 toppings to choose from including jalapeños, banana peppers and green peppers. Garden salad was pretty standard but very fresh. Didn't care for the bottled goopy Italian dressing but no biggie. The sandwiches looked fantastic and fries looked amazing!

You won't find any special local or craft beers here but you will find great deals on all the regular American beers that you'd expect to find on tap at a bar like this. The menu is pretty standard but they do a great job with the food. I always find a soup to enjoy, not to mention the mountains of fresh cut fries that come with the sandwiches. The outdoor area lets you enjoy some space during the warmer months and inside there is pool, darts, and karaoke on certain days. A great place to catch up with friends or even take the family. Service is always friendly and efficient and the prices cannot be beat across the board for drinks or food. Great neighborhood staple!
