I have a bit of a bias against this place and it's not really against THIS place at all. After my…read morefather died my mom spent a lot of time here to cope when it used to be Freddy's. Some might say too much time. Some might say. So I just typically avoid the area because it brings back so much...stuff. When it transitioned to Stateside sometime during the early days of the pandemic we did get take out once and it was delicious - I still dream about the Brussels sprouts. But it was a bit expensive when everyone was dying and all. Like am I really gonna risk my life for $16 sprouts? I think not. Now I think it's under new - new management. My cousin stopped by there about a month ago when she was in the area and gave it great reviews. I was feeling A Kind of Way a couple of weekends ago and just really wanted a cold beer. So me and huzzo stopped in. Service was good and beer was solid. This week I wanted another beer. Blame your president as he insists upon annihilating everyone and sending our collective pressure through the roof. We arrived about 20 minutes before the end of Happy Hour and snagged a couple of beers as well as wings and a shrimp quesadilla. The food was great but the service was the real stunner. I found myself stuck between two beers and the bartender suggested Arnold Palmering it and going halfsies on both. Fantastic decision - the mixed drink was refreshing and tart without being too pedestrian or too far afield. Food came out quickly and deliciously. Saved $15 on food prices alone during Happy Hour. Fat things: The bar stools are excellent - steel with a wide seat and a foot bar so your legs don't fall asleep. And they don't pack too many of them in so it's easy to get into and out of your seat without bumping someone else. Other stuff: They have regular indoor seating and an outdoor seating area on the side with couches, high table, and heat lamps. Overall, the space is open, airy, bright, and clean. It's pretty packed when the temps warm up but shoulder season is very nice for us right now. Be advised: Regular menu prices still seem steep - like everything else these days. But the food is good and they have a very nice craft beer selection. If you can't make happy hour and are looking to treat yourself this might be it. We'll def return!

Quick and easy ordering process, staff don't waste any time getting your order & getting to work on it. Oddly enough there is an ordering kiosk at the counter right next to where you would order with staff. I guess that is for if you're feeling anti-social. Sitting area upstairs, so it is not wheelchair or elderly friendly for the sitting area. No outdoor seating. A very hustle & bustle kinda deal. We had the double patty smash. Overall was it "WTT?"

I just wish there was something fresh or crunchy to balance out all the soft textures from the bread, beef patty, and cheese. I also added beef bacon to my burger, even though it's not listed as an add on the menu. I really wish more of these newer smashburger restaurants had lettuce and/or tomatoes as an add on topping. That would help cut through the grease and make the burger feel a little lighter. The restaurant is very clean and bright, I liked the atmosphere while I was in there and the staff were nice!

Went here tonoght with my family, just a little girls night. We all live in different areas and…read morethis seemed like a good middle place. First time for all of us. So here are my thoughts: Food: . Your typical tavern food. Nothing to write home about, however I will recommend getting their spinach and artichoke dip off the starter section. Chefs kiss. Ambience: . Very chill vibe and clean. Immediate 5 stars right out the gate. They have table tops and booths, as well as seats at the bar. When the weather starts to warm up, I will ask to be seated outside. They have nice fire pits and overall nice outside section. Parking was easy as it shares a parking lot with the hotel. Service: . Our waitress Rose was on top of everything. Super pleasant, very patient and also accommodating. My family can a bit much haha. She checked on us plenty and it felt genuine. Nice place if you want to get drinks and a quick bite for girls night out, happy hour after work, or first date.

That is what I call service. I've lived in Central New Jersey for fifty years, but I never visited the Tavern until two months or so ago. In my five or six visits, I have never had a conversation with the patrons which was not interesting and which compelled me to return to the place. And the burgers are great!

The service was also excellent. (shout out to our waiter.) I might even argue that this place is better than Cheesecake Factory. I had a very good time. The restaurant was also very clean. I didn't see any trash on the floor and the tables were squeaky clean. The music was also very good and so was the vibe. I especially liked the lighting. The bathrooms were also excellent. I didn't have to touch anything (aside from the door) and the water was very clean. Instead of stalls, they had rooms with a toilet inside. No gaps in the wall or anything, it was like your own private toilet. The bathroom was also really clean. This is the best public bathroom ever, and the most private! Last but not least, I really liked the fact that there were many televisions. every two tv's had its own separate sport, which helped pass the time. This place deserves FIVE STARS!!

It ended up being the perfect weekday spot to sit and yap for a while. We originally planned to just grab coffee and a sweet treat, but once we got there, we ended up staying for lunch too. The decor is so cute and the overall atmosphere is really nice. It feels like one of those places you can hang out in without feeling rushed. The service was also great and everyone was super friendly and attentive. Only thing to note is the service charge. Not an issue that it exists, but it wasn't super clear before paying. I did notice after the fact that it's explained on the back of the plaque with the menu QR code. We ended up double tipping, which was fine because the service was great, but it's just something to be aware of for next time. Overall, definitely a spot I'd go back to for coffee, food, and a good catch up session.

I opted for the pink pistachio chai, which despite its visual appearance it was sort of mild in flavor. I didn't taste the chai spices that I love. The French toast was very lightly dipped so it wasn't "custardy", so again I was missing the French toast flavor. And 2 pieces for $16 means $8 a slice, which was so not worth it. The beef bacon was good. I loved the presentations of the food, it just didn't quite deliver on execution.
