It doesn't matter what I order off of their menu, it never disappoints. This time around I tried the buffalo chicken dip as a starter. There was a good ratio of chips to dip and it brought a little more heat then the traditional sauce. For my meal, I got the chicken BLT wrap. This had some of their famous tenders inside. You got to pick if you wanted them coated and in what. This really hit the spot. If you know anything about their tenders, it's that you only need a couple to fill you up. They don't skimp on the size! Smoked makes the only cornbread muffin that I will even think about eating, so of course I had to get one of those too. If it wasn't weird to eat the accompanying butter by the spoonful, I would. The sweet cinnamon blend is amazing! Food wise, Smoked is a 5 star all day. I gave it a four this time around because the waitress completely forgot to put one of my friend's orders in. Besides the bartender, it seemed she was the only one on the floor. I'm sure she had a lot on her mind and it was purely a mistake, but still worth noting.

Located on Forest Avenue well north of downtown, it's a sports bar with a long bar, several TVs, impressive sports beer signage, and a barbecue-and-wings-heavy menu that has something for everyone. A parking lot is another nice plus. I went with a half dozen wings, smoked and fried-- you can also get them breaded and fried-- with Buffalo sauce. Fairly close to the classic tangy Buffalo, with some modifications to make it just different enough. A little salty, but it works. Exteriors more firm than crispy. Interiors ranged from slightly moist to full-on juicy, depending on the piece. Blue cheese was mild and creamy. No chunks. Overall, good.

Twice in one week to see how things go at the bar. So far our visits seem to be at the same table…read morethe last two visits and now we finally got stools at the bar. Pub feel with the bar lined with regulars who are having an open conversation across the bar. The seats we took were in the "Splash zone" which we found to be a true story! Occasionally the taps will "burp" from air in the line and beer will splash up from the glass. Thankfully we did not have food yet but were resourceful making use of the condiments caddie. We had their Chicken cordon blue sandwich, I am a sucker for every time and hubby had their fish and chips. Side of gravy for our fries too. Quick timing for our food to come out and with no issues. Bun was not burnt nor was the chicken over done like the first trip here. Fish and chips were amazing! Batter was not dense or heavy, light and complimented the haddock. Sweet potato fries for my man were very good with the right amount of crispy outside and tender inside. Service was great with the bartender happy to answer my portion question around the fish sandwich and meal. Meal gives you more fish. Being that this establishment is literally around the block from us, they will be seeing more of us. Great job and again, Welcome to North Deering tavern folks

I had not been to North Deering Tavern yet since Samuel's had moved. I tried their brunch and…read moredinner options within the same week. For brunch I sat at the bar. They have different rotating specials which is great. That is in addition to their constant menu. Brunch options are a little limited but there is a variety in different options. When I went, I got the Irish Benedict. It came with homefries. My eggs were overcooked so the yolk unfortunately did not run, which they should when poached. Despite this, the corned beef hash and hollandaise were delicious. They have tons of options for hot sauce, tobacco, or sriracha which I love. The bartender was friendly, knowledgeable, and we had quick service. It was pretty quiet for a brunch place on the weekend. There is tons of free parking, tons of specials, and more. When I returned for dinner, we only had to wait about 15 mins to be seated. It was super busy as the Celtics were playing. Our service was quick and awesome. We got our drinks quickly followed by apps and then entrees. The whole process was smooth and quick. We tried the half veggie nachos, cheesesteak egg rolls, buffalo wings, and the meatball and cheese sandwich. Everything was delicious and worth the price. I definitely want to come back for Tuesday night trivia!

It's not the most spacious spot with a only handful of tables for 4 (I've seen people do 5 with someone on the end a bit awkwardly), but it's a cozy, well-kept local bar. Friendly bartenders and friendly folks that frequent the place with a solid cocktail list. They have hot dogs and a few smaller bites that I have not yet tried, but I am sure I will when I go back!

Great vibe if you're chill, like great rock, art, and a good drink. Cheers. I'll be back!read more

It's such a vibe for a late night drinking or grabbing a quick bite as they have such good food! They've made using the restroom fun as it's decorated with Polaroids from guests, and another funny item (you'll have to see for yourself) You need to get their espresso martini. The cold foam topping it off is the most delicious thing I've ever had.

Room for Improvement has been around for quite awhile at this point and I have heard nothing but positive about it. My wife and I finally made the time to come here and glad we did. With it being Halloween they have a special theme this week called Doom for Improvement so we thought it was the perfect time to visit! We showed up at opening for a spot to beat Halloween crowd on wharf street. I was reminded of Jager right away in the sense it felt familiar while also feeling new. They decked it out with Halloween decorations and bartenders were dressed up. We had Bojack Horseman serving us who was a top notch bartender, friendly, answered any questions and had good vibes! My wife tried their Pineapple Daiquiri and their Espresso Martini. I went with the Halloween themed drinks and got the Rest In Peeses that was a peanut butter (Reese's) themed Old Fashioned. Secondly I grabbed their Plenty Evil that was inspired by the Good & Plenty candy Absinthe Frappe. My wife's drinks were phenomenal and would both be go to orders for her and we both found a new favorite Espresso Martini. My first drink nailed the perfect mix of peanut butter flavor with a classic Old Fashioned. Secondly despite not being a huge licorice/good & plenty candy this drink was delicious! I look forward to returning for a non Halloween themed visit but we were both extremely impressed. If you are looking for a bar to grab drinks and want a nice and chill vibe this is your spot. Expect friendly bartenders who make high quality drinks!

Unfortunately we were not checked in on even once and looking around, we weren't the only ones. For the menu prices, I would have liked to at least be asked how my meal was.
