Great location. Great staff (Tracy). Nice people, Easy in/out. Very convenient for Marin .

My family and I had reservations here for Mother's Day and we couldn't have picked a better place! The server was friendly and accommodating - we were a large group and slow to deciding what to order. Almost all of us enjoyed their beer and a lot of us shared menu items so that we could try more items. My Aunt, Grandma, and I shared the Korean fried chicken sandwich, the pesto pizza, and one of the mixed green salads. We all agreed that the chicken sandwich was our favorite! This restaurant/brewery is also massive on the inside. There are different rooms that you can rent, they have shuffleboard and other games to play, and TVs throughout so you can watch sports if you please. Overall, this was a pretty great first time here and I'm looking forward to returning. read more

Wish I had taken more pics of the food but we were hungry and everything looked/smelled delicious! Service was friendly and fast. We started with the Brussel Sprouts and Hushpuppies. My hubby and daughter had never had (or heard of) hush puppies before, but loved them. (Oh- and we loved the honey butter and pepper jam that came on the side!). We then shared a margherita pizza and flat iron steak. We finished with the strawberry streusal cake. We will definitely be back. read more

Update - here for World Cup, the bar pretzel remains a solid choice, nice and hot and the beer cheese and mustard are tasty too. No more French Dip on the menu, but the pub burger (meat, cheese and bacon) my spouse found very good and the French fries even better. The fish and chips remains my favorite in the area. Service is attentive and staff is working very hard to keep drinks coming and the food out on time. The vibe here is exciting, fun and social, great to see the numbers and people having fun! read more

We stopped by this place on our way back from Muir Woods. It's next to a Holiday Inn. The environment was very inviting. They have a big bar area with lots of TVs so people can watch sports. They also have a separate lounge section and a recreational section with billiard and other games. We ordered the potato pancakes to share. It was tasty with the chive dip but I felt it wasn't worth $13. For entree I had the porchetta cubana. The roll was nicely toasted, the fries were amazing! But the porchetta itself was a miss. I thought the pork gaminess was a bit strong. Maybe a bit more time spent marinating would help. The habanero hot sauce that it came with also didn't do much for me as it felt very mild and watered down. Overall I thought this place was solid. Prices were a bit high for what you get. Also avoid the porchetta. read more

Tam Tavern feels very similar to the old Floodwater--same general vibe, just with a slightly more casual staff and a new menu. The location is great, but the parking situation really should be better. Just know: it's not cozy or intimate. It still has that "sports bar from the past" energy, with pool, air hockey, tons of TVs, and a patio with a beer-garden feel. It also still has that hotel-restaurant atmosphere, but not quite in the appealing way you'd hope. The food was solid overall. The fried chicken was much spicier and saltier than expected, the Niçoise salad was pretty good, and the French dip was hearty. They do have a strong beer selection. Dessert, however, was disappointing--only three frozen options, none of which were worth it. The banana split was overly sweet with artificial-tasting red sauce, the "tiramisu" felt like a frozen cup, and the ice cream was just... ice cream. There's potential here, but a few upgrades--parking, atmosphere, and the dessert menu--would go a long way. read more

My partner has been wanted to try this place for a while and we both absolutely love East Brothers beer. We typically go to Richmond. We decided a Warriors and Lakers game would be the best time to try it out. It was busy and the Saturday before SuperBowl, so we knew it would be busy. We immediately walked up and sat at the bar with open seating. However, quickly realized we would rather enjoy a table. I walked back to the host and asked to be put on a list for a table (there were 3-4 open). I knew they accepted reservations and we may not be sat immediately. However, we were completely forgot about. No text, no call. By half time, the place was pretty open and we were disappointed we hadn't been contacted. I didn't feel it was my job to double check if we had been forgotten. By the time we left, we still didn't receive and recognition from the hostess (2 people working the stand). I know we were forgotten because I watched her write down my name and phone number on a paper, and as a customer, it sucked. We wanted a table to order dinner and have more room, but we just ate at the bar. I will be honest, I wanted to leave at half after this, but my partner was hungry, and that is the only reason we stayed. The beer is always good. The food is okay (too pricey) in our opinion. The French dip lacked flavor, but the fries were amazing. My partner said the burger was ok (also lacked seasoning). We will probably be back for happy hour, and for the atmosphere, but other than that we may have gone in with higher expectations. read more

Steady service, definitely there for efficiency vs super hospitable. Not in a bad way at all. The food was good - I loved the French dip, but my date thought the smash burger was lacking in flavor. The oatmeal stout might be one of the best stouts I've ever had. I would make the drive (over an hour) just to enjoy it again. read more

I was craving a beet salad on the way home from Stinson and Floodwater came up with strong reviews. We stopped by with our pup and sat on the outside patio with an umbrella. Started off with the blonde ale and the what a melon cocktail. Our server was a bit rude to start as my husband asked his opinion between two beers and the guy just said "they're two completely different things".... It made it so awkward! We ordered the sliders, garlic fries, and a pizza in addition to the salad. The sliders were the best thing we ordered. The pizza was fine, the beet salad was fine, the fries were nice and crunchy and the ketchup was good- but the sliders were the most tasty. Overall I think the servers weird attitude at the start kind of set things off downhill pretty early on. I enjoyed the dining atmosphere otherwise and the other staff members were friendly. read more

What a welcome addition to Mill Valley! Sports bar with plenty of big screen tvs- check! Lively beer garden with occasional live music - check! Delicious beer + cocktails - check check! Game room with pool table, shuffleboard, fussball - check check check! And most importantly, delicious food and a fun vibe. Highly recommend: -- The Schnitzel (who else in Marin does authentic German schnitzel, red cabbage and spaetzle?). -- The Double Smashburger -- the Pizzas (if you're a carnivore, definitely order the Molinari Meats!). -- the Beer Battered Fish & Chips -- Bavarian Pretzel with stout beer cheese and mustard -- Saigon wings While all of the above may sound like something you wouldn't want to share with your cardiologist, they have lighter options as well. Their salads are surprisingly fresh, delicious and satisfying (I'm partial to the grilled chimichurri steak). And I'm a fan of their hummus plate with Z'aatar flatbread, and their potato pancakes. While I miss Floodwater's ruben sandwich, Tam Tavern's French Dip is a worthy substitute. The staff is friendly and efficient; the pricing is reasonable; and it's both family-friendly + dog-friendly. Parking can be a bit of a challenge, but aside from that... this place is a winner! Looking forward to exploring more of their menu + Game Day fun. read more

I wanted to love Tam Tavern. We hadn't tried it since it switched over from Floodwater & ordered food to go. We got the smashburger with added bacon & the Cubano. Both came with fries. The burger was better before, & the bottom bun was all soggy. The Cubano was pretty good, I really enjoyed that. The fries were better before as well. But my main comment here, & it's one you will NEVER catch me using, was TOO MUCH SALT!! I love salt, add it to everything, but the fries were too salty as was the burger. read more

What a find! Tam tavern (which has a bunch of east brothers signs out front) is amazing! They have a nice cozy ambiance inside and a great dog friendly lawn outside. Perfect for a sunny day. Service is amazing. Our server, Maggie, went above and beyond to take care of us and our pup. We weren't going to eat, but it was taco Tuesday AND happy hour (4-6 weekdays) so we couldn't pass it up. Our tacos and garlic fries were incredible! Oh and yes, the beer is great. Highly recommend! read more

Way over priced!! $16 calamari that had small # of pieces - should have sent back. Just visited San Francisco nice restaurants that charged this for larger portion. Maybe 10 pieces for $16!! Had Diet Coke and asked for refill with iced tea instead and server said he had to charge for another drink. Ridiculous and unheard of! I spent $94 with tip for burger and bratwurst and 2 sodas for my son and me. Sadly I'd already given nice tip or would have taken it back! Very very disappointed for quality of food - very overpriced and unhappy!! read more

I've been here a few times already with my kids. They really liked the pizza and steak! I had a salad and wine. My salad was great. I thought overall the food has been an upgrade from the previous place. I like what they did to the outdoor area as it seems more usable and I can let my little ones run around. Looking forward to adding this place more into my family rotation! read more

Was just okay. Fish and chips fell flat on the pallet. Smash burger not very smashing. Asian chicken wings very good which is why I give it a 4 but the rest a 3. Salads very fresh and tasty as well. Was very hit and miss. Very over priced and drinks and wine as well. Service perfect. Sports bar loud. read more

Love this spot -- but the FOOD NEEDS RESCUING fast!!! We were big fans of Floodwater, so we were excited to try Tam Tavern. Sadly, everything about the food has really slipped. Ingredients taste cheaper and the execution feels mediocre at best -- more greasy spoon than gastropub. The double smash burger had decent flavor, but the cheese was an overwhelming goopy mess, the bun got soggy, and the meat tasted like lower-grade grocery store beef. One bite was pure crunchy gristle. At $22, I'd rather smash two Super Duper burgers together any day of the week. The Mediterranean salad was forgettable -- except they forgot the olives, which made it not forgettable. The Brussels sprouts used to be delicious. Tonight, ours were dry. The addition of caramelized bacon made the dish more confusing and disappointing. Corn dogs are now a bit spicy and less juicy - so kids no longer inhale them. And the pizza tastes like a store-bought rising crust (very similar to Costco). The standout: the French Dip -- good flavor balance and solid au jus, though the meat still isn't premium. Here's the thing: we'll probably still come -- because the space is awesome. Four distinct seating areas (main dining, back lounge/den, game room, and outdoors) make it a perfect family hangout and one of the best meetup spots. But right now, people will come for the venue... and make the best of the food. We're genuinely rooting for Tam Tavern -- please invest in higher-quality ingredients and execution. This place could be great again with some intentional improvement. read more

Two stars is about all it is due. I'm an accomplished cook, so I have certain expectations about food. For example, roasted cauliflower should be browned and caramelized. It should also be crisp tender. It should be made from fresh cauliflower not frozen. The roasted cauliflower at Tam Tavern was none of these things. What we were served was clearly frozen cauliflower that had been microwaved and drizzled with curry catsup. (Which I suspect was from a bottle.). It was a mushy mess. No browning - just white. All I needed was an immersion blender to make faux-tatoes. So we started the meal with an F. We followed the cauliflower with the fish and chips which redeemed the kitchen. It wasn't the best fish and chips that I've ever eaten, but it was certainly solid. The batter was crisp, not greasy, and fully cooked - nothing worse than pockets of raw batter. The fish was properly done. I was disappointed that they choose to serve the malt vinegar in a small sauce container since it really made it hard to control the amounts used. (Although there are those who would disagree, but dipping fish of this sort into a small container is difficult at best.) The chips were fine. Not spectacular, but good. We gave our entrees a B. Overall we rated our dinner a D. (Two stars.) I expect more from a chef who has won a Michelin award. The restaurant is new and probably having growing pains so hopefully things in the kitchen will improve in time. The staff we interacted with were all very pleasant. The grassy area is a nice touch. Certainly an improvement over the many places that think people are interested in dining in a dust patch. read more

I made reservations for a Sunday night at 6 pm. It was fairly empty, so we didn't need reservations. I felt like our waiter didn't know how to read our table. We were still catching up and didn't even look at the menu. She had to come back several times because we weren't ready. She would also try to clear plates when we were clearly still picking on them. For drinks, we got the raspberry limeade and the pineapple spritz. Both were very sweet and needed to be watered down. We got the pork belly steamed buns and the Caesar salad to start. The buns were soggy like they microwaved it with a wet paper towel. The Caesar salad had too much dressing and wasn't evenly tossed. For our mains, we got the pan-seared petrale sole and the cheeseburger. The sole was on the sweeter side and the burger was good. It came with thick fries. We ended with the chocolate chip cookie (their take on the pizookie). I wish it came with a bigger scoop of ice cream. Good atmosphere, not too loud. They were playing sports on the TVs. read more

I walked in about 4 minutes before their "soft grand opening" and the staff was warm and welcoming. Apparently I'm officially their first customer. Lol! I can say this place is gorgeous, the menu looks incredibly inviting and the staff are fantastic (actually recognized a few from Playa and other local haunts). I can tell already I'll be a regular - I've been desperate for a nice sports bar/gastro-pub/restaurant in Marin County and this place checks all the boxes. read more

Avoid this place at all costs. Beer is mediocre and the food is even worse. The parking situation is an absolute mess. We drove around, entering through the left and wrapped around to find a spot. When we did, there was no signs saying no parking. Two hours later my car is stolen (towed) and I'm out $700+. To top it off, the tow company they used made fun of my visual disability when we went to retrieve the car. read more

The restaurant was packed on a Saturday night. It's a cool little spot low-key you can dress however you show up and feel comfortable. Nice bar and great food. BUT our waiter NEVER came back to the table to check in, no drink refills, no opportunity to ask for condiments, nor extra napkins etc. I only expect the bare minimum... but I spent a lot $$$ on dinner, I feel like we could have had better service. We would have loved a second cocktail, and the kids would have loved a refill on their soda. read more

I lived in Marin for years and this was my first time here. We showed up on Superbowl Sunday with no reservation and managed to get a rail seat! It was perfect timing and a perfect afternoon. We didn't try any food but enjoyed drinks and the huge TVs! The ambiance was great, my bloody was amazing and the vibe for the game was fun. Our server was very attentive and kept his cool through the rush during the game. I would definitely return when I'm back in town. read more

I really was hoping to like Tam Tavern but unfortunately the food was disappointing. The good Beer options are excellent Atmosphere is fun including the outdoor space, games, and the room with the sofas Great to have another option to watch sports Fun spot to bring the entire family Service was very attentive Opportunities I understand the food is elevated bar food but I was hoping for at least a few options that weren't fried, greasy and typical bar food. The beer batterer fish was over fried; Brussels sprouts were over sauced as was the warm winter salad. Hoping they will expand and improve the food. Otherwise, it's more of a place to go drink and watch sports or hang out by the fire pit for us. read more

We stopped in on our way back from the city. My friend and I were both starving! It was a busy night of football but they were able to get us a table and our server Maggie was sooooo great! We ordered the pretzel, I'm pretty sure I can never have another from a different place, it was fantastic and came out very quickly. We also ordered the fish and chips, and the steak salad but subbed the steak for ahi (my friend is a pescatarian). All the food was great, even the fries were crispy and delightful. Maggie was prompt and friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Will be going back! read more

Really nice sports bar, lots of space, solid food and lots of tvs. It's upscale and unique for Marin which doesn't have a lot of this.

Service was pretty attentive but definitely slowed towards the end of the game. read more

We had a large party reserved for a birthday celebration. The service was subpar, the waiter seemed irritated to be waiting on a large table. He refused to split the check for us and scoffed when we asked - we sat for an extra 10-15 minutes itemizing the bill. Side note: $3 per person for a cake fee even if the restaurant does not cut the cake or provide plates, automatic 20% gratuity added for large parties, and a 4% livable wage tax. The food was alright. I did not particularly enjoy their Mac n Cheese or their Funghi Pizza. However, the latkes were delicious! Also the bartender made an INCREDIBLE Kill Bill Margarita! This gave me the impression this restaurant is more of a bar food joint. I truly felt the food was overpriced for the quality received. I can't say I'm dying to come back. I would come here again for appetizers and drinks but was ultimately disappointed in their entrees. read more

Food is solid. Cocktails are too. Service was friendly and accommodating. It was busy on Tuesday and they had just opened 5 days earlier. They are off to a strong start. The menu is different than Floodwater's but familiar at the same time. I had the French dip and fries but miss the Reuben that was on the menu from Floodwater. That Reuben was so dang good. My only ding is that I did not enjoy paying $5 for valet parking plus tip (parking in the same spaces that were free when they operated as Floodwater). It would also be great if they could add some veggie sides to the menu. read more

Wow! Tam Tavern x East Brother Beer just opened this week, and I was blown away. The owners of Floodwater teamed up with the East Brother Beer crew to create the perfect pub-meets-tavern casual restaurant that this area was missing. The food was fantastic across the board--think wood-fired pizza, Cubano, truffle fries, pretzel, and of course a classic brat--paired with a full selection of East Brother Beer, wine, and cocktails. The space has been beautifully refreshed with a cozy, relaxed vibe that makes it easy to linger longer than planned, and the new outdoor area is such a fun addition. On top of that, the staff was incredible--warm, friendly, and genuinely excited to welcome everyone in. Thrilled to have a new go-to spot in Mill Valley! read more
