Tap 1180

I went to TAP with some of my single girlfriends last week, and if you?re single and ready to mingle, TAP is definitely the place to go. Great beer list, amazing food (the calamari is the best twist on a classic I?ve ever had!) and an awesome vibe. And now you can get your picture taken with the holiday animal wearing a Santa hat ? now who wouldn?t want that? Pros: wide beer selection, fun atmosphere Cons: somewhat loud more

This place was great. The wait staff was very friendly and knew their material. The menu was very unique and offered a ton of imported beers from belgium and germany. The only downside is the bathroom is on the third floor by the kitchen. Pros: Food/Beer/Service Cons: bathroom/third floor more

Our server (Nathaniel) came by our table shortly after we sat down. We ordered drinks and took a few moments to look at the menu. Nathaniel returned with our drinks and took our order...we asked several questions, as the menu was hard to understand, but our server was wonderful in explaining it all.\r THE FOOD IS INCREDIBLE!!! I ordered the pork while my date ordered the calamari. The pork was perfect, and the ravioli even better. The calamari was good, but spicer than I expected. \r In the end, I had a wonderful time at tap. The service is outstanding, which is what I expect, especially since it is owned by the same people that own ONE and TWO. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy their drinks as much as they enjoy their food. Pros: service, drinks Cons: crowds more

I had high hopes for this new entrant in the growing midtown restaurant scene. Overall it was very disappointing. \r \r The space and concept of the restaurant are great. The interior is modern, if not a bit cold (literally and figuratively), but the kegs suspended over the bar in a wine-cellar manner is a nice touch. The menus are a graphic-design success, and the menu items are quite ambitious in their descriptions. Sadly, the positive parts of the experience end here. \r \r The service was slow and not overly inviting - this was also on a Sunday night where things were not overly busy. The beers took longer than it should, and for a gastro ""pub"" their selection of draft beers was disappointing. The food ranged from unimpressive - the fried pickles with blue cheese ""fondue"" were tasteless - to down right inedible - the stuffed peppers were mushy and lacked any flavor. After the disappointing starters and slow beverage service, our group decided to forego a full dinner. \r \r While the atmosphere is nice, and the menu is ambitious sounding, the execution is totally off. This isn't somewhere I will try again. Pros: Interior Decor Cons: The Food more

I have been to Tap twice, and the space is visually very nice. Before going, I read a review to stick with the burger or a salad. I love the burgers and fries at One Midtown Kitchen, so I order the $12.00 burger, expecting something similar. The presentation was very bad. Everything on the plate was brown. The fries looked like a pile of burnt toothpicks, the burger is on a small brown whole wheat english muffin, and there is also a brown micro-mini milkshake. No color or garnish of any kind on the plate. The fries were terrible and did not taste fresh. They crumble in your hands like potato chips. I guess they are cooked down so much that there is not enough potato left to retain any heat. If I am going to eat fries, I at least want them to be fresh and hot. The burger is served on a soft whole wheat English muffin that should have been toasted. The burger is topped with ONLY a pickle and slice of cheap American cheese. Nothing else. No lettuce, onion, tomato, or other veg's. The burger is soft and mushy, and lacks any texture. I gave the brown mico-min milkshake to someone else at my table, so I cannot comment on it other than it is served in a clear disposable shotglass. Pros: ambieance Cons: food more

Nice selection of brews and a good atmosphere. food is not great, decent burger, good cheese. Not cooked right and service slow. Another overall meat market, trend scence that does not deliver the total picture. Great to watch people, not great for full meal. Pros: patio, brews Cons: service, price, value more

I've tried Tap twice for lunch now (once with a friend, and once with 7 other people), and I have to say, it's two strikes so far. While they do have a great patio (that fills up quickly, I might add) and location (though parking is scarce- park in the deck next to the Promenade II building or somewhere along Crescent), I've yet to be wowed by the service & food.\r \r Following a ""helpful"" stranger's glowing recommendation of the burger, I tried it out. What I got was a mediocre, bland tasting patty, sandwiched between two plank-like pieces of English muffin. It was fortunate that they provided a steak knife with the burger, as I literally had to saw through the muffin in order to make any progress. Every time I took a bite, I was ripping chunks of the sandwich out (not pretty). The abundance of crispy, greasy, shoestring fries that they provided weren't enough to redeem this dish. In short, skip it.\r \r The second time I went (with the group), we were promptly seated, but spent 10-15 minutes waiting for a server to come by with our drinks. I tried out the pork sandwich, and found it to be better than the burger, but still just ""ok."" The fact that it was served cold didn't exactly help the taste. Service was slow, and at least one person waited for 30 extra minutes on their order (a salad!).\r \r The beer menu is better than average, but not voluminous by any means (slightly above average). The bar area is a neat space, and I would recommend it to anyone looking to have a drink after work, or before attending the museum or an ASO show.\r \r Final verdict: not good, not bad. If I come back, I'll be skipping the food and sitting at the bar. Pros: Decent beer menu, great location, good patio Cons: Sub-par service & food, scarce parking more

We went there with a large group (over 18 people), and they were able to accommodate us on a Saturday night.. unlike at a couple other restaurants we had attempted to make reservations at. Considering the size of the group, I was very impressed with the service. At times, the drink service got a bit slow, but they added another waiter to help and the service picked up. They even were willing to separate the checks. The appetizers we tried were good... and the burger I had was very tasty. I would have like to have seen a little more of an expansive menu. Your food choices are a bit limited. I also recommend trying their signature white wine Sangria. It was very tasty, and not too fruity! I will definitely be going back to Tap. Pros: Ambience, Parking, Service, Drink selections Cons: Limited Menu more

I stopped in to Tap the other day with a friend to grab some lunch and to check the place out and I really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food was really great. My friend, Jim, is now a server there go check it out and ask for him he'll deffinately take care of you. Awesome patio, great food, and fun people watching what more could you ask for, and its all in the heart of midtown. I highly recommend! Pros: Great food, nice patio, friendly employees Cons: It being so new it stays pretty busy, that being said thats what makes it fun. more

This past weekend on the way to Piedmont Pk, we stopped by the new place ""Tap"" at P'tree & 14th. This is one of the most happening new spots in town, with one great patio. We didn't mind the heat, with all that people watching. We both had one of the best burgers in years. Even better than the Vortex. Fresh ground sirloin, with Stilton Cheese, on an English Muffin. Just the best anywhere. All of the house brews were right on, as well as our very nice server. Our new favorite burger and patio! Pros: Great Burger, Brew, Patio & Service! Cons: Parking! We Just Walk From Our Condo! more

We were excited that a true British-style pub, complete with cask ale, was coming to Atlanta so we set out for TAP last Saturday night. The atmosphere didn't remind us of a British pub at all...in fact, it was more along the lines of the typical Midtown see-and-be-seen kind of place. That being said, the patio is fantastic. We were ready to write TAP off when we found out that they don't have cask ale (it is supposedly coming later), but we honestly enjoyed our experience, even if it wasn't what we were expecting. The Old Bay chickpeas are a nice contrast to cold beer, and the deviled eggs were really good. We ordered the pork chop and the chicken and artichoke stew for our meals. Both were tasty, though neither was outstanding. Service was prompt and friendly. Best for drinks and appetizers on the patio, in our opinion. Pros: great patio, service, appetizers Cons: not very British, no cask ale more

I must admit, those guys at Concentric Restaurants have snagged the best corner in Midtown, and have brought a place I truly love. It's right next door to their sister restaurant, Trois, which is really upscale, and not as attractive for this metrosexual male, who likes his flip-flops all weekend. We first stopped by on a Friday afternoon for lunch. The patio almost touches the sidewalk, and umbrellas in bright colors, it could be a bistro somewhere in Europe. But no, it's Midtown Atlanta. The place was jammed, We joined the crowd, and ordered the Pub Burger, w/Square Cheese on an English Muffin and freshly made shoestring potatoes. That burger goes on my list for one of the best in Atlanta, Miss Ann watch out! Avoid the soggy Buffalo Calamari. We washed it down with fresh made lemonade, accented with Lemongrass and Mint. Better than your Grandmother's. Our server was on her game, she knew we had to get back to our office. Very nice young lady. We came back for brunch on Sunday, and wow! I had the Cornmeal Pancakes w/Lemon Curd and Wild Mountain Blueberries. Terrific. My date had the Gypsy Eggs, w/Chorizo, Bacon, Peas, and topped with a Tomato Sauce. The Peachtree Belini was wonderful, as was my date's Bloody Mary, which you can add your on condiments. Service was perfect, we were not rushed. We came back by after going to the park, and had a couple of brews from their extensive draft beer selection. The wine barrel selection sounded great. Next time. Next weekend. Go, this place is great. Pros: Best Patio & Brunch In Midtown, Period! Cons: Parking Can Be Tight! We Just Walk Over! more
