    My brother ordered the macaroni and cheese with lamb and jalapeños...I was so jealous with my mushroom sandwich. Seriously, if you are hungry go for the Mac and cheese! Great atmosphere and staff

    The tavern burger is delicious! Lots of unusual extras available. We also got the plum and peach bread pudding which was perfect! Great for hanging out and chatting

    The Linden brews are fresh and delicious and the price is right! Let your server/bartender know if you walked or biked over... a local delight.

    The potato burger is gross.. There's a wasabi taste to it. The cannolo is not worth it so underwhelming
