21+ is great. We came for Lunch. My wife was very impressed with that effort they put into the decorations. The brussel sprouts with maple bacon were delicious. The chicken and waffle were fried wonderfully and the waffle was buttery and light.
Tavern is a gem in NWI. The food was amazing. When my food wasn’t prepared to my liking it was remade without hesitation. The bartender was extremely personable and friendly. When my table was ready, my server Jianna was outstanding. The restaurant is extremely clean and well maintained. I would totally recommend it.
Ive never had a bad experience here. The staff is great. The food is too. And I love the themes.
I kind of want to go back through all of my 5 star reviews and rate them a 4 after being here. This set a new standard for me. The food at tavern is just immensely on point, portions are large, and the vibe is great for any occasion. Will be back here often.
Amazing selection of food and beverages. Great selection of whiskey, beers and mixed drinks. The local dishes that are created here are out of this world! I highly recommend coming here during the holidays as the decor is something you have to see.
If you are anywhere near Crown Point, Indiana then you MUST visit Tavern on Main. The Irish themed pub has a beautiful interior. The food is delicious (everyone in our group loved their dishes). The wait staff was very friendly and the manager, Kyle, even came to our table to check on us. Tavern on Main instantly became our go to place whenever we are in Crown Point. Please note, this is a 21 and over establishment. You’ll pay a bit more over other locations, but the value for what you get is excellent.
Chef Nick and crew catered for the 4H program. All 300 kids loved everything. Catering portions were more than generous, staff was super accommodating and priced very fairly. Highly recommend Tavern in Main for any catered events. They knocked ours out of the park!
Christmas decorations were on point, perfect atmosphere and excellent service. Drinks and food were great, crispy cauliflower appetizer is a must. They have various holiday specials for food and drinks. Overall, this place won't disappoint.
Came in on a busy Saturday night and this place was popping. Had a small wait firva table but nothing too long. The food and service was A+. The vibes were good and music was energetic. Our server took amazing care of us and had really good energy ✨️. The brussel sprouts and cauliflower apoetizers were flavorful and tasty. I can't wait to come back and try more of the menu to see what other goodies they have. 10 out of 10 I do recommend 👌.
Our first time here & the food was amazing! Loved our server Letty, she is the absolute best! The GM Kyle was super friendly. Drinks were actual drinks & not one shot nonsense. Short rib tacos were unbelievably tender. Highly recommend the buffalo cauliflower appetizer. Everything was incredible. So many things looked good on the menu, we're definitely coming back!
