You order at the counter and then you get a number to take with you and place at whichever seat you choose. Drinks and food both came out really quick. I tried the bees knees which had honey, lavender, rosemary and simple syrup with a dash of black pepper. I did not see nor taste the black pepper but I was a huge fan of this drink. It wasn't overpowering in any of the flavors and the rosemary sprig made it look so cute. I got the breakfast potato hash with no tomatoes and it was a delicious and filling breakfast. The potatoes were so good my group wouldn't stop helping themselves to them. I added some hot sauce as it was in the dryer side but still really good. I also tried the matcha coconut scone. It had a pretty matcha green color but it was hard to taste the matcha or coconut and it was quite dry. Service was quick and friendly. The inside is really beautiful and we couldn't help but do a little photoshoot, so many fun backgrounds! Things to note: Restroom shared with other businesses close by businesses and metered street parking only.

If you want a delicious sweet treat try "your mother". Lots of the cocktails are made with in-house syrups. They also have a nice selection of snacks and food items too. Come in for a nightcap, to meet with friends or even if you're going on a date. I also loved that there was a dj and the place was decorated for Halloween! I also heard they'll have different dj's come in and events too! Really great addition to downtown Salem!

I was greeted by Juliana, who extended a warm welcome, and all of my servers have been knowledgeable and very accommodating. For Salem - it might be considered a bit on the higher end, ($30 avg for entree) I think it's worth the price. Smaller wine list, but what they did have was good. Brunch on Father's Day was yummy.

The service was epic! Our waiter had a great personality, and handled our big, loud group with ease and grace. The timing on the dishes and drinks was impeccable. We felt well cared for, and I felt celebrated. The food was delish. We loved the fondue as an app, I think we ordered two, and some oysters. Everyone enjoyed their main courses, I loved my goat cheese dumplings. A few of the guys mentioned smaller servings, but I prefer quality to quantity, so maybe just order another entree‍. Bottles of wine were reasonably priced, which I always appreciate. Thanks Clink! for giving Salem a beautiful place for celebrations. Trying the happy hour next...

Taproot Lounge and Cafe is among my favorite restaurants in the Salem downtown area. With expansive…read moredrink and food menus that are inclusive of vegan/vegetarian options, there's something for everyone here. I love that they have jackfruit as a "meat" option for many dishes - most restaurants will only offer tofu if they offer anything at all. The chipotle jackfruit tacos are great, by the way! We've always experienced good service here, and enjoy the casual feel of the dining area. This is a good place to eat a meal with folks with various dietary needs without sacrificing flavor or variety. Taproot is also open pretty late (12am most nights)!

We came in for brunch and the Breakfast Sally (their breakfast salad) was hands down one of the best brunch dishes I've had. Unexpected, perfectly balanced, and something I'd come back for specifically. Cocktails were just as strong--the Mambo #6 was a standout, and my boyfriend loved both his old fashioned and the breakfast skillet. Everything felt thoughtful without being overdone. We'll absolutely be back next time we're in Salem.

The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming.

The food was less oily than Cali-Mexican food, and the special seafood options stood out.
