The wings were ok. The Nashville hot was spicy but not overpowering. I did like the house sauce . Also lots of games for kids from arcade and coin machines . This place has two vibes . One sides a sport style bar and the other is more comfy sit down restaurant . The service was ok but very busy on this night . My son's Mac and cheese was ok but very basic . I'll be back to try again sometime !! read more

Great food and exemplary service. The patio is very welcoming. It's become a favorite in the area!

The worst service and food I've had on a long time. There were three tables of customers when we got there. The sign said seat yourself. We sat down and waited forc10 minutes for someone to help us. They had wait staff who would walk through the area but none if them came to take care of us. Another party came on after we had been helped and they experienced the same thing. But they got up and left after waiting for someone to help them. I ordered the breakfast burrito which was listed as having shredded cheese, bacon, ham and sausage. I asked for fruit instead of potatoes. When the food came out my plate had potatoes, no salsa and the burrito had half slices of American cheese laid across the top of the burrito! I cut open my burrito to find sausage, onions and tomatoes. No ham or bacon and no shredded cheese. When I told the waitress, she said she would tell the cook. She later came back with a plate of sausage and two pieces of ham. After I told her there was no cheese, she apologized and said she would comp my food. Not sure why she just didn't have the burrito remade with the right ingredients but I ended up leaving after eating 5 strawberries and an orange slice. My husband had an all meat omelet. The meat was on top of the omelet instead of inside of it. We gave up on saying anything about that. Save your money and your time. read more

Used to be great place, customer service is taking a dive and wont be back! Saturday morning girl needs to move on, she obviously thinks customers are just a pain in the ass and not essential for her paycheck! read more

Me and my wife sat down to eat and we seated ourselves and no one came to even take drink orders for ten minutes even though multiple staff members walked by and looked at us so we just left will not be going back due too terrible customer service and lack of care from employees read more

Now I know why there is 14 open tables on new years eve. Ordered old fashioned, somehow it tasted fishey made with the cheapest whiskey available. Asked about bourbon pour prices and said he would get back to me, never heard back. Waited forever for our food. Had to send it back because it was bloody stone cold. I never ate a fishy walleye before until now. The ranch dressing was very watered down, ruined my salad. Wife's roasted chicken was stringy. This is our first and last time sadly read more

Stopped in for drinks and to check out the menu. Awesome bartender, great atmosphere, patio and pool tables. They have 6 different pull tabs in machines. Fun happy hour!! The food looked amazing so we will be back to dine! read more

The first thing I noticed about Tavern 22 was the taxidermy-heavy decor. Kind of a morbid zoo - but it's very high quality. The seating and dining area was very nice, and the staff was very friendly. The menu had a good variety and I ordered the steak tacos. The "steak" wasn't what I expected - it looked like a chopped up hamburger - and shells were floppy and undercooked. Despite the culinary challenges, the tacos were tasty - but I don't think I would order them again. Please note, Cash is preferred here and you pay a surcharge for using a credit card. read more

Service and atmosphere are good. Both of our breakfasts were stone cold. The Tavern Plate breakfast (2 eggs, hash browns, choice of meat, & toast) came with 1 sausage link. read more

I attended a baby shower here and we had amazing service, wonderful food and delicious drinks. One of the best cosmopolitans I have ever had (and the cheapest!) it was such a great place to have a gathering. The boneless wings and the cheese curds were my favorite- the chicken was crispy and juicy and the cheese curds were just the best- chewy and melty I wish I had them right now! read more

I live right by this place. I have ordered a burger the last time I was here and half of the bun was hard as a rock. Tonight I just visited this place in hopes to order a beer. I went and sat at their outside patio. Nobody came to take my order in 30 minutes so I left. There was maybe 2 others tables with customers total at the restaurant. It feels like I was intentionally ignored. I really wish this place could be the neighborhood bar but with Whistle Binkies around the corner and with the unprofessional staff they have it simply won't be. read more

Had a chicken taco salad for lunch. It was meh. Clean restaurant dinning area. I will order something different next time.

Great service and food with a nice atmosphere! We wanted to try something different and Tavern 22 didn't disappoint. We stopped by for a Sunday brunch after church and our server was spot on with timeless and had a good sense of humor for the table she was dealing with. The kids enjoyed passing the time playing with the claw machines and video games and overall everyone enjoyed their meals and I expect we'll be returning regularly. read more

Food was just mediocre. Definitely not worth what the bill was. Service was slow and not very attentive

Visiting from the Des Moines Iowa area. Stopped in after a volleyball tournament to grab lunch, the staff was incredibly kind (is MN nice a thing)? We felt welcomed and well taken care of, and the food was amazing!! We will come visit every single time we are in town, and we will recommend it to everyone we know! read more

Been there few times. I like the atmosphere! Usually friendly staff! Have ate several times once there was a special a stir fry which I loved ! Tried going back to order it and I know it's a special but asked if they could make it unfortunately they said no ! Had some trouble with burgers that our friends had ordered! So has been awhile since we been back ! Tried again tonight husband ordered burger specified med to med rare came out well with not cooked fries ! I had French dip with potato salad ! Dip was ok small for the price and was not very hot when delivered! Service was good didn't say anything about food because we were hungry and usually I'm the one to keep quiet ! Prices high for what you get ! read more

I've been here a handful of times and don't anticipate going back. The food is ok at best. They give you crinkle cut fries like you'd buy at Walmart. The bun for my burger was cheap too. We were there to watch sports on TV, considering they have a ton of TVs, but they didn't carry the Wild hockey game. All of the TVs went to a blank screen for an hour while they tried to figure out how to use them. The whole place just seems poorly planned and executed. And this was a recent visit, not right after they opened. read more

Food is bland. Nachos are oversized Bag of chips. Burger is tasteless. Turkey stacker was pathetic. At least they can't screw up beer.

The service was very slow, which is forgivable but we weren't given any warning because it was less than half full. We waited an hour and a half for two flatbreads, a burger, and a kids quesadilla. The lettuce was wilted and rotten. The burger was the same quality as a McDonalds quarter pounder. For the quality of food the cost was high. read more

Restaurant open for two weeks. Had dinner on a Thursday night at 5 pm. Place eventually was packed. Our waitress, Erica was great. Very limited menu. Their broasted chicken was out of stock. Had the chicken sandwich which was fine. Husband ordered the chicken tacos, which were awful. Three very small tacos with very little filling. No rice, beans, or chips. Just three small tacos. Another ordered the power chicken pesto plate for $13. There was a meager amount of rice and salad and maybe half a chicken breast. Totally not worth it. While we sat there, at least three tables got up and left due to no one attending them. Atmosphere was very different. Dead, stuffed animals on all the walls and stuffed birds in the entry way. Not appealing at all. Definitely not returning. And we never saw anyone of management capability anywhere. read more

We stopped in for a night cap, great new building with ample parking. Friendly bartender greeted us and he had a large selection of tap, cans, bottles and full liquor. There was plenty of seating and a nice ambiance. Prices were reasonable and service was fast! Will be back! read more

WAY TOO LOUD from the bar. We could not hear each other in the restaurant. Good food, good service but obnoxiously loud. Will not be returning. read more

Wow! What a great surprise. We stopped for a quick lunch and loved it all. The food, the service, the atmosphere... We will definitely be back. read more

What a neat and spacious ambience and restaurant. Friendly staff, I even got a tour of the place. Plenty of choices on the menu. I had ordered a sandwich with avocado melt, i was not aware there was a slice of crispy bacon in it. I think this should be mentioned for vegetarian/vegan customers. Overall, highly recommended read more

I'd def recommend going here, even though i personally didn't have the best experience. The food was fine, but the service was lacking. However, in this post-pandemic world, i understand that we're all hurting to get anyone to work at all (I'm in the service industry elsewhere), so that's why i forgive. However, I'm not gonna give a shining review in lieu of our severs lack of good service. She was completely kind and fairly competent, but she lacked any and all urgency. By no means were we in any rush, but when it takes to get the check, give the card and return the card and check, more than nearly 40 minutes...there's a bit of an issue. And, as i said, I've been in this industry for more than 20 years, and I'm sympathetic to the new "norm" of being stretched as industry people, but i could look around and see what she and her fellow servers were dealing with, and it did not merit her neglecting us during our visit. As i said, I'm in the industry, our entire table is in the industry, minus the 2 children and our 80+ year old grandma. We are kind. We were understanding and patient, but sometimes enough is enough. So, that's why I'm leaving a 3 star review. I just hope that this can be a gentle nudge in noticing short-comings in this f*$ked up new world we live in. It's not cute, i know, and i hope this isn't taken poorly or in any way unkind. That dear server still got about 40% off of us and I'm still highly recommending Tavern 22. Just be a bit better, even when you don't "feel like it", because that is OUR job in the end, and i know you know it's true...ooo, ooo, ooo, i love you (sorry, went MilliVanilli there in the end) read more

Stopped in early on a Saturday night. Looking for a good hamburger but open to anything else. Found an empty table No one greeted us. No one came to offer a menu nor take drink order. Finally picked up a menu from the next table. The menu was so dirty it grossed me out. Since no staff seemed to care that we were there and I now needed to wash my hands, we left. read more

The animals are every unique and exotic. Great service and staff is very friendly. Eaten there numerous times and have never gotten a bad meal. read more

I have come here many times since it opened. Great bloody marys and the mixed drink prices are about $5-6. Very reasonable! All I ever get is the broasted chicken. It is really good and moist with mashed and slaw and bread for $10.99. REALLY good. Lots of dead animals on the walls though. read more

This place is incredibly disappointing. The ambiance is lacking and somewhat strange with all the taxidermy. The open ceilings make it incredibly loud. It was hard to carry on a conversation. The menu is tiny and the food was awful. My companions burger looked like it was served in a high school cafeteria and my patty melt was almost inedible. The only reason I am giving two stars is because the staff was nice and efficient. read more

Tavern 22 has a great atmosphere both in the dining room and in the bar area. The outside patio is really nice. We have had the opportunity to eat there several times and the food was fresh and very good. Not your typical boring bar food. The staff was friendly. We highly recommend Tavern 22. read more
