    For some peculiar reason Tavern management will not seat six at the same table on the sidewalk tables. So if you want to enjoy breakfast with a large group go elsewhere.

    Our waiter was incredibly rude, and one of our bloody marys had a receipt in it. Yes, IN it.

    Avoid the veggie burger at all costs. Take a Xanax before coming here because the people are obnoxious. Might be a good place to pick up dumb young girls who don't know any better
