Happy Hour After Shopping at Tap 42 Craft Kitchen & Bar Aventura Mall! My boyfriend and I stopped by Tap 42 at Aventura Mall after a little shopping for happy hour, and it was the perfect way to wind down! We decided to sit at the bar, which had a great atmosphere and made for a fun, relaxed date night. For drinks, we ordered the Lemon Drop cocktails, which were delicious and beautifully presented! For food, we tried the flame-grilled wings, truffle fries, and salmon rice cakes. Everything was great! The wings were flavorful, the truffle fries were the perfect snack to share, and the salmon rice cakes were a delicious addition to the table. The service was great as well, which always makes the experience even better! It was actually my boyfriend's first time visiting Tap 42, and he really enjoyed it. I love introducing him to new spots, especially when the food, drinks, and atmosphere all deliver. Whether you're looking for a casual date night, a happy-hour stop after shopping, or a place to grab good food and cocktails with friends, Tap 42 at Aventura Mall is definitely worth checking out! Five stars for the food, drinks, and service! We'll definitely be back! read more

Stopped by for a mid-week lunch and the place was nice and empty. We immediately got sat and our waiter came over. I forgot how cute this place is. The bar area has a lot of seating and it is very nice. They also always have great music going on in the background and TVs everywhere. I started with my personal fav the "Don't be Prick" margarita which is delish. The combo of the prickly pear with the tequila is refreshing and tangy. For appetizers we got the Flame grilled wings and they were amazing. The wings have a great smoky charred flavor from the grill. It's served with a buffalo sauce and a smoky BBQ sauce which are both amazing. For entree I got the Drunken Goat burger which is sooooo delcious. This is my favorite burger. The patty is a blend of lamb and beef and it's extremely juicy. It also has whipped goat cheese and it gives it an intense flavor. I always enjoy coming here for some good vibes and food! read more

5 STAR SERVICE & 5 STAR Food! Looking for a fantastic server, knows the menu, gives solid suggestions and is super attentive and down right friendly?!?! Ask to be seated in the section that Matias is working for the night! Seriously, ate here three nights in a row and he was excellent! The food, ate just about every appetizer, all were really good, but my favorites were- short rib sliders and the chicken lettuce wraps. The sliders were simply unique and full of flavor and delicious. Tired all the salads except for the Caesar, and they were all delicious popping full of flavor. The chicken finger basket was solid, as was the rainbow sushi bowl! They have plenty of seating indoors and outdoors and actually preferred the outdoor due to the seating arrangement and being outside which was a little less noisy. Overall, plenty of places to choose from at the mall, but our favorite was Tap42 due to the service by Matias and the delicious food options and cold beer! read more

My favorite happy hour for wings and beer. Never disappoints. The wings were delicious and fries were hot and crispy. We did order two drinks which included an old fashioned. It was good ana strong. Next time a beer is needed for the burger. We did get the burger and shared it. Just get the meat to be medium rare if you want it juicy. Service was amazing and the ambiance was chilled. It was early in the day but it picked up later. Definitely coming back read more

Really can't go wrong with Tap 42. I think they condensed their menu though because I didn't see much options. I would say the service wasn't the best. We had to ask so many other waiters for things we need because our server just wasn't attentive to us. read more

Stopped by Tap 42 while at the mall and I'm so glad we did! This was our second visit to this location--the last time was about 4 or 5 years ago--and it was just as good as we remembered. We sat outside, and the ambiance was perfect for a nice meal. We were seated immediately and decided to stick to appetizers. We ordered the wings, guacamole, and the lettuce-wrapped tacos. Everything came out quickly and it was the perfect amount of food for the three of us. What really stood out was the incredible service from the entire team. Our hostess was wonderful, the waitress who took our drink order was great, and our waiter who handled the food was amazing. Everyone worked together perfectly to take care of us. We will definitely be visiting again! read more

Definitely the highlight of our trip! Service was 10/10 so definitely ask for Lorenzo, he made our experience really great with great recommendations on food and drinks and was really attentive to our table. I ordered a chicken parm that i will absolutely dream about . The portion was huge and the food was flavorful and fresh. For a starter we ordered the street corn guacamole dip and that was really good it wouldn't have been something i would've chosen if not for Lorenzo and he was right on the mark because it was so fresh and delicious. The restaurant has plenty seating indoor and outdoor and it was clean with a friendly atmosphere. I really enjoyed my time here, if only they had one in NOLA read more

Honestly, it wasn't my vibe for a lunch spot. We came on a Sunday during brunch and had a reservation on OpenTable. Although we were a few minutes late, they seated us quickly, which I appreciated. The service was very slow. We waited over 10 minutes for a waiter and another 10 minutes just to get our sodas. The DJ was extremely loud, making it hard to have a conversation. The food was average overall. This might be a better spot if you're coming mainly to drink and enjoy the DJ rather than for a relaxed meal. read more

Best spot for a birthday lunch. In-door ambiance is really nice and was super cozy on a rainy day. The Drunken Goat burger is 10/10. My family enjoyed the other burgers and entrees as well. The shots and cocktails were popping; server ensured those kept coming. We were a loud and proud bunch thereafter. Good times! read more

Our lunch here was honestly 10/10! We ordered the wings, sweet potato fries, chicken salad and that yummy truffle corn guacamole. All of it was fantastic and the presentation was truly great, very nicely prepared. My husband loves that the wings are grilled so less oils. Additionally, the price was great as well, for all the food and drink it was under $90. Our server was lovely as well and very fast wait time. We will definitely be back! read more

First time at Tap42 and surprise at their low ratings because the food was pretty good. Huge portions and it was pretty empty when we went so I was able to sit outside and feel a nice breeze. Our waitress was very kind and took care of us. Definitely a great brunch spot if you are looking for one in the Aventura/Miami area. read more

Tap 42 Craft Kitchen & Bar - Aventura Address: 3252 NE 207th St, Aventura, FL Food Type: New American / Gastro-Pub If you're in Aventura and want a spot that gets it right every time, Tap 42 is it. The vibe is energetic but still comfortable, the service is consistently on point, and the food comes out fast and fresh -- even when they're busy. Their menu is super versatile, whether you want something clean for a rest day or something a little more indulgent. I went with their Grilled Chicken Avocado Salad, and it was honestly perfect -- flavorful, filling, and not drenched in dressing like most places love to do. Portions are generous, ingredients taste fresh, and everything feels well-balanced. If you're tracking calories or macros, it's one of the better options in the area. Service deserves its own shoutout: friendly, attentive, and they actually check in without hovering. In Aventura, that's rare. Overall: Great food, great service, great energy. Tap 42 is officially in my rotation. #AventuraEats #MiamiFoodie #ABrunetteInBrickell read more

The food is pretty decent. I recommend the guac. They also have a Philly cheesesteak that's pretty great. The brussel sprouts depending on the cook and location are also a good choice. The service however was great on my last visit. Our waiter Luke was really attentive and did an amazing job taking care of us. He was the highlight of our visit. read more

Out on another adventure with my favorite girl, we headed to Tap 42 Craft Kitchen & Bar after a long day of shopping and a 3-hour movie at the mall. By the time we arrived, we were absolutely starving. Since it was Saturday night, every restaurant had a wait list, but we decided to stick it out. The restaurant offers both indoor and outdoor seating and is located on the second floor near the large slide area. While waiting for our table, we found a nice outdoor seating area to relax. Once seated, we were happy to have a quieter outdoor table with a view of the slide since the inside was extremely loud and busy. Cue hungry people making questionable food decisions. We started with the chicken wings as an appetizer while desperately waiting to place our dinner order. Our server seemed very overwhelmed by the Saturday night rush, and another staff member actually brought over our appetizer before we were finally able to place our order. I ordered the cheeseburger with truffle fries, and my daughter ordered her usual favorite, chicken fingers. Unfortunately, after nearly 30 minutes, our server returned with the check before we had even received our food. Once we explained, he was very apologetic and assured us the order would be right out. Thankfully, my burger was absolutely worth the wait. It was one of the best burgers I have had in a long time: juicy, flavorful, and more than filling enough on its own. Honestly, the truffle fries were unnecessary because the burger completely stole the show. I only managed to eat half. My daughter thought her meal was just okay. Service throughout the evening was slow, but it was clear the staff was doing their best during a very busy night. Between the wait for a table and the delays with food and the check, dinner ended up taking almost 3 hours total. Overall, the food, especially the burger, would definitely bring me back. Next time though, I would probably avoid Saturday night. read more

I'm so glad I came back to this location for our Mothers Day brunch! The service is amazing and all the staff is friendly. Our server Matias aka Matt was awesome and very helpful with suggestions on different items try on the menu. They have a great drink menu but I was driving and it wasn't quite afternoon yet so He also let me know that I could get a Mocktail if I wanted instead of the signature drinks they provide. I was so happy try their Lychee Mocktail it was absolutely delicious. read more

We've enjoyed many brunches and dinners here, unfortunately, feel Tap 42 has declined significantly. No longer does it feel like a restaurant but bar food at its best. Prices don't quantify for value. I remember the brunches being fun with a live DJ and a more festive vibe. Our server was friendly but spread thin, we had to repeatedly remind him of orders delayed at the bar. He was assisting tables from one corner to the other. Overall he had a great attitude but the rest of the team certainly felt short. Drinks and food - mediocre Ambiance and vibe - meh Save yourself the trip and if you're in the Aventura Mall area you're better off taking a chance at any other spot! read more

Went here with a very large group of about 30 people. They made sure we had adequate staff to handle a group for this size. The food was hot and fresh, while being served quickly and correctly from the kitchen to the table. The beer selection was robust, offering many delicious local options. Will definitely go back before I leave and try as a smaller group. read more

I frequent Aventura Mall Tap 42 often. I decided to order door dash and the quality of the Hangover sandwich was HORRIBLY MADE!! The bacon was so soggy and barely there. Basically I paid for EGGS for $20. I'm so disappointed. And when you're hungry and expecting a great meal... DISGUST IS EXACTLY what I encountered instead of a full stomach. Shameful on the prepaers read more

Tap 42 - Hangover Burger. - Beer Bar Near Me - Aventura, Florida

This Tap42 location is inside the Aventura mall but is easily accessible! There is an elevator you can use that can easily get you to the Tap42 floor (2nd floor) without having to go inside the mall. We went early - @ 11:45am because we skipped breakfast and were HUNGRY. We loved coming at this time because how peaceful it was inside the restaurant, and not too much craziness or rowdiness. ANDDD let me compliment their music selection because my husband and I were enjoying all their throw-backs. We were vibing. Now let's get into the drinks/food. For drinks, they were advertising on their social media the "1942 Millionaire Margarita" - it is $29 but I would have to say you need to try it at least once. It has Grand Marnier and then you top it with a mini Don Julio 1942 bottle. You feel like a millionaire after drinking this. I also ordered a "Don't be a Prick" margarita after. It was a good drink to follow the Millionaire. I've had it before and it never disappoints. For appetizer, we ordered the Truffle street corn guacamole. If you know us, we never pass up anything with truffle. This guacamole is one of my favorites.. ever. It's always so perfectly made with the right amount of truffle so you can enjoy it. It was a good portion for two people. And it also comes with salsa on the side. For lunch, we shared the Chopped Chicken Caesar wrap. It was also being advertised on social media stating this wrap is giving other restaurants a run for their money.... And I must admit, they are right. It had the perfect amount of grilled chicken, croutons, salad, and dressing. AND they give you extra garlicky Caesar dressing on the side that is sooo addicting. Definitely recommend. Side note, our server Dominic was amazing. Since we arrived, he was very happy to serve us with a nice and friendly smile, made sure we were always attended for, gave us good recommendations, and overall was amazing. Thanks Dominic and Tap42! read more

Stopped by for an afternoon snack and drink at this beautiful spot inside Aventura Mall. The restaurant was fairly quiet at the time I visited, but you can tell it probably gets lively during dinner hours and weekends. From the moment I walked in, the hostess greeted me with a warm smile and promptly seated me at a cozy table for two. My server came by right away to take my order, which was a nice touch. Although I was dining solo, I wanted to take a little time for myself and enjoy something refreshing--so I ordered the Peachy Lychee Martini and the Spicy Tuna Tartare with malanga chips. Both arrived in a reasonable time. The martini was absolutely delicious--perfectly balanced and fruity without being too sweet. The tuna tartare tasted incredibly fresh, and the malanga chips added the perfect crunch. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience here. The service was attentive, the atmosphere relaxing, and everything I ordered hit the spot. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back! read more

Most cities in South Florida you can find a Tap42. This one is attached to the outside of the Aventura Mall on the second floor which provides a picturesque setting. Took a seat at the bar and ordered an Ommegang Neon Rainbows which was cold and tasted perfectly hoppy. The crispy chicken tender melt sandwich with drizzled aioli took thirty-two minutes to arrive which was the longest I ever waited for a meal at Tap42 and was not happy. Maybe this timing issue was due to the changing of shifts, not sure. The sandwich was excellent with big plump chicken wedged between soft bread. Noticed that the wine glasses were placed into an auto spinning device to clean blemishes from the glass after washing it - great addition (see video). The bartenders were friendly and attentive during our one hour stay. The interior and exterior of the restaurant were ultra modern and appeared clean and well organized. The hallway leading into the men's bathroom had torn pieces of paper on the black carpet. Upon opening the bathroom door, more used wet paper were scattered all over the floor from the entrance to the sinks (see pic). An employee sanitary thirty minute checklist was not affixed to the back of the door, which could be a supervisory implementation in the future. Still one of my favorite eateries - the food, beer and atmosphere was fine with only a few issues that should be an easy fix. read more

Food was average. Ordered the wings and egg rolls for apps with the group I was with. Main entree got the wagyuand noodles, which was ok. Definitely not worth the price. The service was solid and very attentive. read more

Never had a bad meal at any Tap42 restaurant and this one was no exception. Great location on the second floor outside of the Aventura Mall. Ordered a cold Elysian Space Dust beer which was thirst quenching. The chicken tender sandwich was huge and came with unmatched soft bread and crispy well seasoned fries. The entire restaurant was full and the four o'clock shift change caused some very slow food arrival. read more

I had a great experience at Tap 42 in Aventura. What stood out to me the most was the attentiveness of the servers and hostess. There was a moment where the hostess noticed we were done with our food as she passed by our table and hinted to our server to check on us. That level of teamwork and attention to detail is very much appreciated. The food came out fast and hot. Definitely flavorful as well. At first glance the serving size looks small but the meals were surprisingly filling. The only downside is the pricing. Some items feel a little bit steep for what you get. Like a $10 side of fries seems a bit much. You're also in aventura so for the area I suppose it sounds about right. I would've like to try more things but it just didn't seam reasonable but maybe on another visit! Other than that the overall vibe, service, and quality of food makes this location a visit worthwhile. read more

we love this place. They brought us a free truffle guac and service was great - Jimena was a doll.

1st time at this place and we had a really bad experience. I took my mother out for lunch and she was really excited to try this place, unfortunately it was disappointing. I order the spicy tuna tartare that was ok, she had the 3 dinner menu which consisted of chicken wings that were burned , the wagyu noddle bowl that was bad and finally the key lime pie was ok, we order also cocktails and those were good...service was not good because they only had 1 waitress for the whole restaurant and she was trying her best to do a good job was it was tooooo much for just 1 person, the hostess Yamila was amazing and very helpful. Ambience was ok , it feels more like a sports bar than a restaurant. I don't think I'll go back. read more

If you love brunch, and love music, Sundays is the best time to come. There's a dj, located on the second floor of adventura mall, overlooking the city, they open the windows so fresh air comes in. We got the tres leche French toast, chicken tender and fries, and the truffle guac dip. The truffle came through, super cheesy with the cotija cheese, and the crispy tortilla chips to pair with was phenomenal. The tres Leche French toast with the fresh fruits was really good, wasn't too sweet, everything balanced out. The fried tenders were super light, crispy. Overall experience was great. Our server was attentive. They had a nice drink menu, had i brought my id i would've gotten a drink. But it would have been a nice with the meal. read more

The place is super trendy with lots of beer options and great whiskey options as well! Thank you Iain!! read more

Grilled chicken avocado salad was very good and refreshing, but the only part that was disappointing was the chicken, which was rubbery. My mom had the crispy chicken tender melt, which she liked with the exception of the thick bread. Good service. Ambiance is terrific on the upstairs outdoor terrace, totally private and out of the crowds and traffic jams downstairs. They do have happy hour drinks and small bites, but that's at the bar only. read more

First restaurant in Miami that I ate at on my weekend business trip, and it did not disappoint! Some coworkers and I met some donors there, and we ordered all of the appetizers they had along with drinks for a few hours. Our service was great, and the inside of the restaurant is a cool vibe. It was a little difficult to find because we didn't realize it was connected onto the mall. The lettuce wraps and the sliders were our favorite things we ordered! My coworker and I tried some of their margaritas including the prickly pear and their spicy marg. Both were amazing. I also had their Peach lychee martini and it was good as well! read more

Recently visited Tap42 for lunch and it did not disappoint. Being there at 11:45am for lunch, there was no wait for a table on a Saturday. Dominic was our server and we really appreciated his attention and how welcoming and attentive he was with us. Ordered the Smoked Old Fashion as a drink and it was made perfectly. It was delicious so I had to order another round. For appetizer, my wife and I were recommended by our server to try the Truffle Street Corn Guacamole and it was a good choice. We devoured it because of how tasty it was. And it also comes with a side of salsa if you'd like. Would definitely order again. For lunch, my wife wanted to try the Chopped Chicken Caesar wrap since it was being advertised on Tap42s Instagram page. We shared it and it was a good portion for us both and it also comes with fries, we elected to elevate to truffle Parmesan fries for an up-charge and it was worth it. The wrap was really good, and the extra garlicky dressing on the side was hard to resist. Definitely recommend this to others. Thanks Tap42 Aventura! read more
