Tavern 42 did NOT disappoint. The food was great and the service. We ordered the following: Salmon BLT Wrap Buffalo Shrimp Wrap Lemon Raspberry Cake Everything was good! The Salmon BLT was better than expected. The fries are my type of fry! The cake was chilled when we got it but we took it out and let get room temperature……PERFECTION! We will definitely be back to try more items.

Came here yesterday for my first time and let me just say I was not impressed, walked in and literally sat there for about 10-15 minutes confused at if I should just sit down or not all 3-4 waiter/waitresses just looked at me did not greet me or say one word! I literally had to flag one down and get my own menu. The food is good but I would not come back because of the service, my mom ordered a dish she usually gets (she is a regular here) and was so excited about the bread it came with and when it came out no bread, she asked our server for the bread it usually comes with and he never even brought it… idk I guess they just don’t care about the customer service side I was pretty mind blown.. take your money elsewhere

Tavern 42 is hands-down one of the best spots around! The food is incredible — the subs are packed and flavorful, the pizza is perfectly cooked with a great crust, and the pasta dishes are always fresh and satisfying. The vibe inside is laid-back and welcoming, making it a great place to hang out with friends or enjoy a meal with family. The staff is friendly and quick to help, which makes the whole experience even better. If you’re looking for consistently great food and service, Tavern 42 is the place to go.

This place is SO GOOD. The calzone is large and crispy and fair priced. The chicken sandwich with pimento choose is full of flavor and toppings. The outdoor eating space has been redone and you still get GREAT service. recommend!
