    A Saint Paul staple. Easy, simple, fair prices, great service and delicious food. Known for the pizza and burgers, I recently learned the red pizza sauce is the same recipe as former Old World Pizza (a 50-year old shop if you know you know). Ambiance is your typical dive bar: dim lights, dated decor and super chill. Come in your sweat pants and crocs type of energy. The BBQ pizza was solid as well as the taco salad. Shout out to Sarah K. who serves on Friday's. She's the best! Ask for her.

    PBR on tap!! Shuttles to games and concerts!! Great staff!! We stopped before a concert. First time here. Very busy. Dive bar atmosphere. Nice menu. I had a BLT that was very good. The jojos were ok. My wife had the Philly and loved it! Another st our table had the club sandwich which was good. My daughter had the taco special, one chicken, one beef. Very particular diner and she liked them both very much. Great server, very busy but communicated well and were well taken care of. Need to go back for pizza. Hand made crusts visible in kitchen from our table. I love these places.

    Italian Fries

    I heard good things about skinners from a few people, and went for the first time last weekend. I tried the Italian fries and wings - 1/2 Cajun and 1/2 BBQ. The Cajun wings were pretty good, but not a lot of meat on those suckers. The Italian fries were great. I appreciated the amount of cheese they use. Our service/server was awful. She had a bad attitude and never refilled drinks unless asked. I love myself a dive bar, but in my opinion, I'd rather go to a place that serves a smile and friendly service over what we got.

    Do you member the old fashioned JoJo potatoes? Well they have them here!!! Delicious burgers, fresh made pizza factory pizzas, fried chicken, daily soups too! Sunday was half price wings which were cooked perfectly and plenty of sauce. Busy little corner bar with great service and prices. Bar area and dining room. Best of both worlds.

    Wednesday special Steak.

    George & The Dragon is a super cool restaurant that my hubby and I tried for a double date night…read morewith our friends. We came on a Monday night at 6:15pm. This place does get busy so definitely keep that in mind. Luckily I made reservations ahead of time so we had a table waiting for us, otherwise we would have been put on a waiting list since it's a small space. They put us in a corner booth which was nice and spacious enough for 4 people so I'd definitely recommend asking for a booth verse a table if you're planning to come with a larger group. The servers are all very friendly and helpful. I appreciated their attentiveness and sharing what they like best, especially for what's in season based on the time of year. The menu has quite a bit of variety too which is sometimes unexpected when you come to a pub-style location. For appetizers we got Onion Ring and Fried Pickles. They were both really good and served with dipping sauces. Definitely both shareable items so if you're in a group they'd be great options! My entree I chose the Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon served with lemon soy marinade, creamy cucumbers, and jasmine rice -- it was SO good!! I loved the creaminess of the cucumbers especially with the rice and than the lemon soy marinade was just a unique touch to the salmon. Toned the flavors down without overpowering acidity. And the salmon was so dreamy, a beautiful pink color that you just knew it wasn't a farm raised salmon. Plus the portion was very generous!! I'd definitely recommend the Alaskan Sockeye Salmon to anyone interested in visiting here. #eatwildsavewild The only negatives (which are more so just knowledge bombs for you): * Restaurant is VERY loud. It's hard to hear because it is one small room that everyone plus the bar is in. I wished I would have took a picture to show what I mean. Just know that if it's an intimate setting you're looking for this is not the place. So be prepared to talk loudly over the loudness and ask "excuse me?" or "repeat that" many times throughout your visit because you're not going to hear everything. * Timed eating. Because this place is a hit with limited seating, once you get a table and complete your meal/payment you'll kindly be asked to leave so that they can clean up and open the table to next in line. Totally get that and am not put off by this at all, but I could see how it could catch some folks off guard especially if you are out for a meal with folks you may not see frequently-- so just keep that in mind. This is not the place to sit and talk post meal. * Parking is limited. Be prepared to walk a few blocks as the road parking in front of the business is pretty limited especially with the other stores and restaurants in the area. Regardless of those few bullets I highly recommend folks visit George & The Dragon. It's a really cool spot and the food was great! Plus theirs a malt shop right next door that looks yummy too, so definitely worth visiting and getting malts after for dessert.

With bars on every floor and an outdoor patio that feels like half the city decided to pop 'round, it's the kind of place where "just one pint" turns into a full-blown social expedition. For more than 30 years, this downtown British pub has been the city's unofficial living room--on game days, the crowd spills onto the sprawling patio, where sports enthusiasts gather around the giant outdoor screen like moths to a very rowdy flame. This pub has perfected the art of feeding a crowd--especially when it comes to their fan-favourite burgers and dangerously delicious white cheddar mac and cheese. The burgers are bold and satisfying, the mac is creamy and crave-worthy, and every dish arrives courtesy of a team so attentive you'll wonder if they've secretly known you for years. Being at this pub feels like stepping straight into the center of the city's heartbeat. Inside, every cheer, clink, and burst of laughter wraps around you like you've joined a long-running celebration. Cheers!

But as the new owners have taken over, things shifted. Generally it was fine but in the last couple months things have gone downhill. The last straw was when I went in for a single drink with a friend, early in the evening and when we got our tabs, we filled out our receipts and left our tips and went on with our evening. The next morning, I was called by my bank about a suspicious tip amount that I had recently left (aka the evening before). These cheapskate cheaters and thieves working at the bar had changed my tip amount egregiously. On one single pint, I think I paid $7/$8? And my tip amount was over $30 making my one beer almost $40. If that is what tappers has become, it is no longer that quaint and unique neighborhood dive bar that Chris and Steve had bought back in the early 2010s. The icing on the top was that one of the owners was actually our bar tender that evening. Slimey and shady and when we called to inquire, we were hung up on. Let this place go back to the dogs. At least the drunks and townies that used to call Tappers their neighborhood pub weren't stiffing the customers.
