Great food and service! Cute little bar that seems like a popular spot for locals and visitors like us. Food was tasty - especially the California club with homemade chipotle mayo. Enjoyed a margarita and an old fashioned to complete our meal. Beer list is extensive! read more

We had the shrimp, fish and chicken tacos. All three were great, but if I had to choose one it would be the shrimp. The 1/2 loaded tater tots was too much for the two of us. Very good and plenty if you are very hungry. They have a big selection of beers. Our waitress was very nice, sadly I forgot her name. read more

Food was delish and service was friendly and timely. Look forward to checking it out again when I return in the warmer weather.

Every time we walked by this place it was busy, so that was a good sign. In fact, when we were ready to eat here it was too busy. No problem, we walked around downtown Madison a little more. We went back about a half hour later and got a table right away. It's in a great old building with high ceilings and charm galore. That's not uncommon in Madison, Indiana since it has 133 contiguous blocks of buildings on the national register of historic places, but it's still way cool. It's set up to have live music - too bad we weren't there on a weekend. It's a casual, friendly atmosphere, and it was popular for groups. I was pleased to see several thoughtful vegetarian options on the menu (and vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free options are well labeled). I was even happier to learn that their black bean burgers and chickpea patties are made in-house. That's definitely a good sign. I opted for the chickpea burger that isn't fried (Buffalo Chick-Pea Sandwich), and I got it on sourdough instead of the bun. The patty was really nice, though the barbecue sauce they used was too sweet and tangy for my taste. Still, a nice sandwich though. I thought about upgrading to fries, but I stuck with the chips, and I was glad I did. The house made chips are delicious! All in all, this is a great place, and I look forward to returning next time I am in Madison. read more

Stopped in for dinner here one night while in town. They have bar seating and regular tables too. Inside was cozy. Our waitress was friendly and knowledgeable. Food was wonderful and our orders were correct. My burger was well seasoned, and the homemade chips were fresh and crisp. Would eat here again if ever in town. Even though it was getting busy (fri night) we were never rushed. Small town goodness! read more

Very impressed. In Madison today for the Chautauqua. Had been reading about Off Broadway Taproom here on Yelp and decided to try it for lunch. Honestly, I was expecting something a bit more stuffy and upscale from the reviews. I was THRILLED to find that it's just a basic bar serving great food and beer. Amicable people work at this place. The woman checking IDs, the guy behind the bar, and the servers, were all super nice. Our drink order was taken right away. I asked for an IPA suggestion and ended up ordering a King Sue from Toppling Goliath. Really tasty beer. I ordered the Rosemary Chicken in a wrap with tots and my partner ordered a small salad with grilled chicken on top. So...they got my order wrong and mistakenly brought the greek chicken sandwich in a wrap but you know what? It was SO damn good I didn't even mention it to the server. The wrap was amazing. The ingredients worked well together and it was delicious. And you cannot go wrong with deep-fried tater tots. Loved the food, the beer, the atmosphere and the service. Look forward to returning next time I am in the area. read more

This place is super cool. The margaritas and tacos are amazing! I highly recommend the Thai taco and the fish taco. The buffalo chicken taco is pretty spicy but was also good. The tater tots and fries are amazing as well, and the service is super kind! Definitely worth visiting. read more

I had the sweetest server! Kennedy was so awesome! She is a good asset to your team! We will continue to come back, because of her!

Can't really describe this as pub food because it's soooo good! Had the Rosemary chicken sandwich and it was delicious! The service is great, even on a high traffic day like Hanover Homecoming. We are going back the very next day bvuz we heard from other patrons that the brunch is fantastic. read more

We camped at Clifty Falls for my birthday weekend and decided to grab dinner here after 7 miles of hiking. The taproom seems popular with locals and visitors alike, with the wait for a table quickly piling up. The servers ignored us and moved around us as we waited, didn't ask if we wanted drinks. The space has a considerable gap between the bar and the seating that could likely be used to fit a few extra high tops, but maybe people stand around more as the night creeps on. Once we secured a table, our server pointed us to the TV which had their beer selection. I selected a peaches and cream fruit beer that wasn't very peachy but did the job fine. For dinner, I ordered the pepper jelly burger and a side of tater tots. Piled high with avocado and the jelly soaked the bottom bun. I was hoping for some more heat, but the burger was good (and messy!) overall. read more

Not a bad spot at all. We stopped in for a drink or two. Staff seemed friendly. The place was clean for sure. Neighborhood bar for sure. My only negative would be that they are taking up precious customer real estate by cluttering bar space with bar inventory- napkin holders, etc. That goes in the prep area.....save that space for your customers. Love the seats by the window for people watching. read more

DAMN good tacos! Fish and shrimp tacos were incredible. Ordered a second helping. Nice staff and great vibe.

Great atmosphere. Exceptional service, even during lunch rush. The bartender was very accommodating and mixed us some yummy blackberry mojitos. Can see where this would be fun with a group for an evening out hanging or with some music. Southwest salad was very good! read more

My boyfriend and I came into your restaurant early September for a quick bite. I got the Po Boy sandwich and he got a burger. Both of our main courses were amazing, however the Crawfish taco we split was not. Taste was good, however we woke up in the middle of the night with food poisoning; throwing up with stomach cramps. We really enjoyed our main meals and may give it a second try-- minus the Crawfish taco. read more

Outstanding food, service as well as ambiance! Was very impressed! Will definitely come back again.

We visited Madison for the day and decided to have lunch here. Food was good, but customer service was mediocre. The older gentleman acting as server was not as friendly as I hoped. He took our order and was so quick to walk away from our table before we were even finished placing our orders. He asked us twice what we wanted to drink because he had forgotten the first time. Maybe use a pen and a notepad in the future? I noticed he was interacting very well with what appeared to be his buddies, because he invested so much time to them and was so talkative to them. But I don't believe we received the same type of service. I tried making conversation with him, but he barely looked at me and quickly left our table. All I said to him was that the fried green tomatoes were the best I've ever had. I realize it gets busy at times when you work in a restaurant, but make a little effort to all your customers at least. Visitors and locals should be treated the same, especially in a business. The young man who brought our food to the table, however, was courteous. My tacos were okay, but the flour tortillas were cold. read more

It was a slow start to a Saturday morning. We were walking and saw the Off Broadway Taproom. We weren't in the door a half a minute and were greeted by the bartender, the hostess, and one family sitting down to eat their breakfast. Love the small-town charm! Our server was an absolute charmer, and even though he was busy, he took the time to make sure we knew what we were getting, as well as some of the specials they were offering. I had decided on my selection twice before he came over and I wound up changing it again after he came over! My wife ordered the Salmon Eggs Benedict, and I went with the Chicken & Waffles. Now, I'm not shorting the Chicken & Waffles - they were simply amazing - but she let me taste that blackened salmon with the hollandaise and oh my goodness did she ever win breakfast! Next time we're in town, you can bet we're eating at the Off Broadway Taproom! read more

Great place to have a drink or two, simple (but good!) bar food and meet a local or two. Busy at times, but still enjoyable

I can see why the many Shrimp tacos were excellent! Enjoyed the crawfish taco. Jeff had the Patti Melt and loved it. Fried green tomatoes yum yum This place is hopping read more

Food was great! Beer selection was great, too. Definitely recommend if you come to Madison!

Came by on a Friday night and it was very busy, but not too loud. Service was fantastic and attentive and the drinks were great. We ordered the cauliflower bites (garlic parm) for an appetizer and highly recommend. We also ordered the Greek Chicken wrap, which was good but very messy and the Veggie Burger which was a bit crumbly but very good. The tots could've used a bit of salt but otherwise we had a very nice meal here. read more

We stopped here for an early dinner and was not disappointed. It's a small building with limited seating but seemed to be a favorite for locals. We got the loaded chips as an appetizer and they were absolutely delicious. We only got a 1/2 order but wished we had gotten the full order to have more to enjoy. For dinner, I got the taproom burger and my husband got the western burger. Both were good and juicy but came in second to the loaded chips. We will definitely be back the next time we're in Madison. read more

Was in Madison working and wanted to have dinner someplace with a good beer selection. This place did not disappoint in that aspect. It was very busy for an early Monday evening but we managed to get the last available table. The waitress was excellence. I had a pork tenderloin and tots. Can't complain. Great prices and great beer choices. read more

We took another road trip and today from Louisville it's a easy drive up 71. Several options for lunch and a craft beer. We decided on Old Broadway Taproom. Great atmosphere. Seat yourself. Our server was Zach and he gave us the specials. We were in the mood for burgers Zach recommended the Pepper jelly and Forgive me I can't remember the name but it had bacon and a delicious cheddar dressed with crisp toppings. On weekend evening there is live bands. The walls are covered with popular musicians of all era's. Plenty of four top tables. Rustic hardwood floors. High copper ceilings. Awesome vide. The beer was rich and smooth our second had a bourbon rich flavor. Full bar of great flavor. This is a must stop! Service was attentive and pleasant. Street and back lot parking. Offering tastings. read more

The atmosphere is phenomenal and although it is a "bar food" menu, the quality is quite good. The Taproom Burger is one of the best burgers in town and we love the pretzel appetizer. The service can be slow at times, but that's usually because it is packed in there. Try and get a seat in the front windows if possible. It is great to see the people walking by on Main Street while enjoying a great meal and a cold beer. read more

Food reads like somewhat typical bar food, but it was definitely fresher and tastier. Casual dress, nice dark wood bar top with generous space between tables. Gave off "neighborhood bar" comfort feel. Fried green tomatoes were crisp, not greasy, tasty remoulade. Greek salad not typical Greek but it was tasty. Smoked wings with Parmesan garlic sauce- didn't taste the garlic but the wings themselves were tender inside and crisp on outside and of a larger size than typical. Bartender was running the entire room save a few tables, but service never suffered for that. read more

The lady with glasses servicing tonight is very rude and not nice. Food was ok but she was not nice at all.

Good beer selection and great pretzels! We just popped in for a cocktail and a snack--the pretzels were fantastic! We might try the wings tomorrow! read more

Went here for an early dinner (a little before 5pm) on a Saturday with my partner after a long day of hiking at Clifty Falls. We walked in and seated ourselves at a table, and were promptly greeted by our server. They didn't seem to know the tap menu off the top of their head, so we just checked out the screen above the bar to see what they had. My partner and I both ordered canned ciders, but they had what seemed to be a wide variety of beers on tap. For food, my partner ordered a burger with fried jalapeños on it and fries, and I ordered the veggie burger with tater tots. The food came out quickly and tasted great! There were some errors in our order; my partner asked for no tomato on their burger but they removed it from mine and not his. They also swapped our sides. However the food was really good. I loved the veggie burger patty; they can be very hit or miss and this one was definitely a hit! I really appreciated that they had a vegetarian section on the menu with multiple options. The menu itself was quite large and there were lots of choices that looked great; a wide variety of street tacos, sandwiches, burgers, and salads in particular. As far as ambience, this is definitely a "local" bar as other reviews stated. There isn't a clear or large sign that is visible from driving on the street so you could miss it. A lot of the patrons and workers seemed to know each other. That said, we didn't feel unwelcome or uncomfortable in any way. It did start to fill up as it got closer to 6pm. There is not a waiting area to sit to wait for a seat if everything is full. It's very much a fend for yourself/first come first served situation. Many people were walking in and immediately leaving when they saw everything was full. I'd recommend getting there early if you're set on eating here. read more

This was my first time venturing out for dinner and live music in months. Off Broadway did not disappoint! The waiters were accommodating when the band started set up, they moved us to a new table. There is no waiting inside for a table, so grab a drink (canned) and head outside to look at all the historic buildings until they call you. Upon sitting down the waiter came up and introduced us to the staff who would all be helping out. Wide variety of drinks at very affordable prices. The hot pretzel appetizer melts in your mouth. The recommendations by our waiter, Cameron, were excellent. I wasn't asked how I'd like my burger (mw) and it was well done, not much pepper jelly on it either. But overall all the toppings, the bun was fresh and fries were great. If you're ever in the area, I highly recommend stopping in for a great atmosphere, and good people. read more

Off Broadway Taproom - Hot Pretzels - Beer Bar Near Me - Madison, Indiana

Everything was great. We continually look for local places, even though we've been in the area for years. We decided to drop in, it was crowded and was seat yourself. Luckily there was a bar top table for 2 readily available. Server was very attentive, and was quick with 2 glasses of water w/o asking. It seems to be as the name says a taproom. BUT bey cool, Madison is known for its annual regatta, and at the end of the room was an unlimited hydroplane boat on the wall. So that was cool!! My wife had a California Chicken avocado wrap, and stated it was very good, so big she brought 1/2 home. I opted for the fish tacos which were excellent, on the side garnished with lime pieces and a pickled onion, they were light fried cod, and oh so tasty. I also ordered the house made chips, which were crispy, fried golden with very little salt. So don't be disappointed if you need to add some. I would rather they be less salty than the other way, you can always add. Needless to say we will be back. read more

Delicious tacos and burgers! It seemed that everyone at this place for dinner was getting tacos and burgers, also recommended by the staff both options. This place is nestled right on the main street in Madison. If you're here for a weekend stay, add this to the list. All about the fish tacos. I tried 3 different ones, fish, buffalo chicken and crawfish. All came fried (as expected) and with really good toppings for each flavor. We tried the fried green tomatoes as an appetizer and they were perfectly crisp and the tomatoes in the best state of "unripe" that they don't pull out the whole tomato when you bite into them. Yum! With the appetizer I would have been better off with 2 tacos, but my eyes were bigger than my stomach. Burger- jalapeno Jelly is one to try! A giant juicy burger served with your choice of side. Go with this or the fish tacos! read more

Afternoon appetizers with friends. Perfect place. We had loaded nachos and loaded tots. It was busy so we waited at the bar and as soon as a table opened up they cleared it right away for us. Waiter was a little chatty with other patrons so we did not get amazing service but it was fine. Food was over the top! read more

The Off Broadway Taproom is a Madison favorite. The tacos are so tasty it's tough to choose a favorite. You really can't go wrong with any of them. However, last night I had the summer salad for the first time. It was off the chart delicious! It didn't even need the dressing. I added the chicken, which provided enough warmth for the goat cheese to melt as I stirred the ingredients together. YUMMM... the mandarin oranges and candied nuts added just enough sweetness to give the complex sweet/salty flavor that lifted this dish to next level amazing! Give it a try if you're in the neighborhood. The only reason the rating was dropped to 4 stars was the ambience. While I love live music, playing it so loudly that patrons cannot hear the person across the table is too loud, in my opinion, (but I'm old!). The music could have been an attraction, but was, instead, a distraction. read more

Walked from our hotel based on a staff recommendation. Food was great, but service was even better. We can't wait to come back!
