    Memphis Hot Chicken 6 Piece
    Raisa B.

    We were in Eagan and had two hours while our daughter was at a birthday party, and we asked a friend for a restaurant suggestion. Without hesitation, he told us to go to Yankee Tavern. We were seated right away, and the Halloween decorations were awesome! (Our son loved walking around and checking out all the spooky creatures while we waited for our food.) $3 Hamms pints during Happy Hour? Yes, please! The kiddo had a cheeseburger with fries and a chocolate milk. The burger was huge! My husband and I split the six piece fried chicken, Memphis Hot! This came with three sides of our choice, so we got tater tots, Szechuan green beans, and coleslaw. It was SO MUCH food! We took half home and had it for lunch the next day. Flavors were good and service was fantastic. The only downside is that it's far away from our house. I will absolutely go back if we have the opportunity.

    Chicago Brisket

    Sat at the bar. Bar was pretty full but tables were open. Bartender wasn't friendly. Acted like we were an inconvenience. Disappointed. Food was ok. Brisket was way too salty. Cheese curd was delicious though.

    Dry rub wings and the best blue cheese I've ever had
    Emilee K.

    I've been to Yankee Tavern many times with family and friends. Decided to get the dry rub chicken wings and cheeseburger flatbread for the first time, and OMG they were both SO GOOD!!! The wings had a smoky flavor and the blue cheese was the best I've ever had. The flatbread crust was buttery and crispy. I don't know how I've gone this long without ordering either of these items. Will definitely be back!

    First time coming to Yankee Tavern on 6/11/2021. The place was clean, the tables were spaced well enough for social distancing and the booths had covered partition in between. The staff was attentive and pleasant, our server kept excellent track of what everybody was ordering (our party arrived at different times and some had dinner and others didn't). The drinks were well made and worth the price. Will certainly go back.

    Didn't think the foam on this beer was real... it never changed.

    Hey, I like this place! These owners have created a great venue that is a cross between a clean city dive, a supper club and a sports bar. It had all my favorite elements I look for in finding a new relaxing establishment for food, drink, tunes, sports on the tv and some friendly staff and patrons. Bartender Scott was behind the bar tonight by himself and he was working his tail off! My husband and I enjoyed a couple of drinks that were very reasonably priced. An IPA for $5.25 each and a Tuesday night margarita special for $3.50. We enjoyed the dry rub wings $10.50 with a large bowl of blue cheese dressing and the reaper burger that was spicy "hot"!... but pretty darn good. Most items don't typically come with a side ( which is just fine) so we did order the Parmesan crusted Mac and cheese and it really was good- not sure I really have ever order Mac and cheese at a restaurant without being with children. We finished our dinner and walked outside to the patio deck- what a nice spot with beautiful flowers where we could see several groups playing bocce ball and also getting bar service. How cool is that? We would love to return this summer with some friends and or family on a lazy weekend afternoon and soak up some sun and fun. Oh.. by the way. They have hard boiled eggs on the bar. Just crack and enjoy.

A huge accent wall lined from floor to ceiling with spirit bottles is the perfect back drop to this cozy hang out. Perfect for a date night, friend catch-up, or solo Whiskey adventure, Volstead House is a vibe! Pair the atmosphere with top notch, educated bartenders and mixologists...you know you'll be taken care of! We started with the A La Louisiane, a spirit-forward, whiskey cocktail with some funk from Peychauds and Absinthe. It was delicious and well balanced. We also shared the Glazed Carrots and the Parm Fries. The carrots didn't hit for me, as the glaze and sauce lacked a punch of flavor but the fries were crispy and delicious. If you have a spirit enthusiast or someone that likes to explore the world of cocktails, I think this is the perfect vibe!

My first thought was holy bottles! There's tons and tons of bottles up and down the walls. The space is also smaller than expected, but we went in at 3PM as a party of 4 on a Sunday and had no problem getting seated. I ordered the Lost Footage and it was delicious (and strong!!). It came in a flask inside of a VHS case which was fun. I then got to pour it into my glass. Other members of my group got The Red Wedding, Pity Party, and To Your Health. My spouse and I shared the strip steak and the wedge salad, which we enjoyed. I would like to see some more food options in the future, especially since I'm already pretty limited due to a gluten allergy. However, I am excited to come back.

Watermelon salad with grilled chicken was delicious as was the mad cow burger (3/4 lb!). The chicken sandwich on Texas toast was good but after eating half we realized it was still pink in the middle. Server (Amanda) was wonderful but overall we were disappointed that half of our food missed the mark. One last note - bartender was constantly adjusting her hair (she must have been hot), and then resumed making drinks (grabbing lime wedges etc, eek!). They should probably wear their hair back to keep their hands clean? Total bill came to $80ish.

Fear not; you can park on the west side of the building, also an overflow lot right there as well, a few spaces on the street in the front or across the street from there is designated parking. I entered through the west side of the building that noted Lucky's, fear not, when I entered and told the host I was looking for the Mudd Room she gave me precise directions to get downstairs! Once downstairs I came upon the nice single toilet ladies room. I proceeded in to the bar, asked the blonde bartender where the music would be? She pointed to the stage @ the end of the bar and said it could be loud right by the speaker so she'd recommend sitting a few tables away. She said the parties near the stage were tabbing out if I wanted to sit there? I said I would take a seat @ the end until they were through. Shortly after I sat down the very friendly brunette server brought me a glass of ice water... thanks! She remained attentive all night, filling my water three times. Despite not looking over the menu she was very thoughtful when she popped by just to say it was last call for the kitchen, did I want anything? I meant to get the gals names, I did not, sorry. Music wasn't too loud; the acoustics and lighting were great since the speakeasy is already dimly lit. I don't anticipate this was my last visit; very much looking forward to catching another gig here or meeting friends for drinks! The friendly and attentive service are my number one fast and hard rule for a venue... no matter how good or bad the drinks or food are.... they 90% determine if I will return. These two knocked it out of the park... thank you for such a welcoming and attentive inaugural visit, cheers!

The restaurant has a bar-and-grill atmosphere, which makes sense given the brewery focus. It felt lively but still comfortable for a holiday dinner, and the menu offered several appealing choices both for the special and on the regular menu. We started with shrimp, which was cooked properly and had a good texture--firm and enjoyable without any rubbery or off-putting qualities. The French onion soup was a comforting course and fit the meal well. For the main, I ordered the burger, which was solid and satisfying. While not flashy, it was well prepared and enjoyable. A standout side was the sweet potato fries, which were exceptionally crisp with just the right amount of salt--easily some of the best I've had in a while. The dessert rounded out the meal nicely and completed the four-course experience. Nothing during the meal disappointed me; everything we had was good and well executed. Service was pleasant and professional. Our server was friendly and attentive, though the kitchen timing was a bit slow. We did notice that a few tables seated after us received their food sooner, but it wasn't enough to detract significantly from the overall experience. At $69 for a four-course Valentine's Day meal, the special felt like a good deal, offering variety and solid quality without feeling overpriced.

They looked sad and faded like they'd just been told their vacation got canceled. The rest of the dish tried its best, but the tomatoes were such little troublemakers that the whole thing landed at a 5/10 for me. Not bad, not great, just "yeah... that happened." They took our order and they delivered our food just fine. Prompt. I think the ambiance is decent there, although it would be nice not to get seated in the middle of the room.
