    Loved it all! I am glad to be an hour away because I would get an Angry Chair Melon Baller every day!

    The service really sets this place apart from the other bars in Tallahassee. Our bartender was absolutely wonderful! She gave us samples to try, answered all our questions, and made sure we were all set throughout. I got a beer on tap and my fiance got the house wine. The beer was so refreshing! We also ordered the pretzel which was good, typical to what you would expect at a bar. Queso that came with it was delicious! The ambiance paired well with the name of the place - dark, cozy, and modern. Wish I could give them half stars as only talking off one for the conditions of the bathrooms. Still such a great experience! We will definitely be back!

    My husband and I frequent this place all too often and we truly love it for the friendly vibes, awesome drinks and craft beer selection, and attentive bartenders. All that it lacks is great food - we haven't been overly impressed by their menu items but it's still worth visiting for a good time and some drinks! You should go!

    We went for apps and drinks over the holidays. Everyone in our group really enjoyed the pretzel and beer cheese app. We got queso which was pretty good too. The drink menu was huge, with a ton of draft and bottle choices. We sat inside but they also had a really cute porch area.

    If your in Tallahassee this is a cute little spot to have a couple drinks or grab some apps. The drinks a good, the atmospheres is nice and the service is slow.

    I'm mildly embarrassed I've never been to this location. I visit the one on Gaines Street occasionally, but never found it all that appealing. However, I'm pleasantly surprised to report that Brass Tap at Midtown has their shit together. Pardon my French. I was drawn in due to a glass giveaway, which had me weak in the knees. The girlfriend and I were a little hungry (what else is new?), so we ordered the spinach and artichoke dip. It came out quickly and we very much enjoyed it. The glass giveaway came packaged in a limited edition Record Store Day logo, in partnership with Dogfish Head brew. The 90 Minute IPA was glorious and my girlfriend was a fan of the 60 Minute IPA. Glass giveaway began at 8 pm, but the manager who was nearby happily and willingly gave us our glassware a few minutes early. Sitting at the bar turned out to be a treat as we watched playoff hockey (Go Bolts!) and chatted with the manager. All in all, with over 50 beers on tap (guesstimate), decent bar food, friendly staff and a spacious patio, I will certainly return for many nights this summer. Oh, and the playlist was killer, too. Brass Tap gets the gold in my book.

    Chips and salsa were really good. Salsa had a nice kick to it that isn't like standard restaurant salsa. Chips were warm. Boyfriend got the jalapeño burger and said it's one of the better burgers he's had in awhile and would come back just for the burger. I had the chicken street tacos, they were just alright. Nothing too special about them. It was served with chips and salsa, and if I had known that we probably would have gotten a different appetizer but it didn't say it anywhere on the menu. The atmosphere was really great, it's one of the reasons we chose to try the place out. I got my food roughly 7 minutes before boyfriend got his , and that's mainly why we went with 3 stars instead of 4.

We thought we should leave the long high top tables for larger parties. We chose to sit at a smaller table for four along the window wall. The chairs seem too short for the tables along the window. The restaurant is sleek and modern. Eye-catching decor that is visually appealing. We watched servers and management walked by our table several times in a five minute period and not a single person greeted us. We finally flagged down what appeared to be a manager, and asked if we could be served. They abruptly left the table, more minutes past, and eventually a server came to the table, dropped menus, and left. We waited another five minutes and finally flagged the server down to take our order. I've never experienced this, but the server requested a credit card immediately to start a tab. We said we were paying cash and only planning to order a sandwich and an iced tea. She stated that was the policy so if you are arriving with no credit card in hand, it is possible, you can't be served. Cash is not king here. My dining companion really wanted to try the Italian beef sandwich so we ordered one entree to split. He ordered an unsweet iced tea and I drank water. The food arrived promptly and the bowl presentation was acceptable. The sandwich is served on top of smashed potatoes that are probably baked. There was a gravy at the bottom of the bowl, which was I think was the au jus meant to dip the sandwich. The bread was not fresh. The sandwich was hot and tasty. The meal was enough for two people, but the server didn't bring a plate for the shared portion. We flagged another server and requested and received a plate. The total was $25. My dining companion had visited the restaurant for breakfast several weeks earlier. He noted the food was good and the service was efficient. I hope our visit today was not the norm because we felt totally ignored. We decided if we chose to return in the future we would have to sit at the bar to be able to be served on a timely basis, if at all.

The drinks are strong, well-priced, and there are always a wide variety of brands to choose from. The bartenders are friendly and make you feel like a regular, even if you only pop in once a month or so. That being said, this type of experience usually only applies Monday-Thursday and Sunday. Friday and Saturday are a completely different ballgame. On the weekends, Finnegan's turns from a relaxing Irish pub into a main Tallahassee music venue with Fifth & Thomas, adding swarms of people, a bouncer, seating that you have to fight for, and deafening background noise. Although the bartenders try to keep up, it's hard to to get to the bar and then even harder to have them hear your order. I know it is what it is, but it's hard to enjoy a visit hear on the weekends. Overall then, Finnegan's makes for a relaxing spot with friends on off-nights, but be prepared for what you're getting yourself into on the weekends.

    The food at this establishment was quite possibly the worst "Irish" pub fare I have ever consumed…read more The Shepard's Pie was drier than the Sahara and looked like it had just been pulled out of a Marie Calender's box. The Loaded Tots were topped with warmed up ham cold cuts and shredded cheddar cheese, warm but not completely melted, ew. The only redeeming quality of the tots was the beer cheese sauce that I used to drown out the frozen tot flavor. To add insult to injury, I was served a Guinness from a bottle which is a damn disgrace given the place calls itself an Irish pub. It wasn't even a full pint of Guinness! The atmosphere was palatable but the music was some random DJ Press Play big booty remix. Why no Irish music? Or something a bit more on "theme"? And I say theme, because that is all it was, a theme. An idea in the ether that remained unfulfilled in reality, and is only supported by the numbing effect of the spirits on the visitor who must pretend they are in an Irish Pub.
