The Tap Trailhouse

I went for a company lunch, which I booked by using Seated. It had a nice vibe (Billy Joel music played in the background) , but it was mostly empty when we went. The restaurant was also very tidy, which was nice. The portions were pretty big so you definitely get a lot for the money spend. Overall I liked it and would visit again.

Liked this place more than I expected, given its location by the tourist mecca of Faneuil Hall. On a quiet Thursday night after work, it wasn't very crowded, and we got a nice four top in the back. Small menu of tavern favorites with a modern twist. Superb beer selection, and generous themed flights of craft beer for a low price. Forget about the Caesar salad, chilled anonymous romaine with bagged croutons and a dab of bottled dressing. But the mains were terrific - my husband had a stellar venison meatloaf, with fresh English peas and fried onion gravy, and my steak frites had some of the tastiest fries I've had in a while, thick cut, crispy but with a creamy center.

Great beer selection! Was not there for food this time, but what went by smelled great -- in particular some blue crab nachos and some wings. It's not a giant menu, but there's some pub kinds of favorites. The bar was very comfortable, the bartender was super friendly and happily slinging a few samples, and it was a low-key, fun environment. The prices for beer were competitive/cheap, and even some of the more off-beat stuff wasn't especially expensive (about a 15-20% markup for some limited Allagash vs. my favorite discount store, which isn't bad at all). I look forward to more visits, and probably eating dinner there at some point.

Been going to this place since before their remodel and, complete change from a neighborhood dive bar to its new upscale build. We used to love the old place with there eight dollar pitchers of Molson and, live music. That's not to say we don't like the new digs. There are now an upscale establishment with a great craft beer list, high end eats ( I recommend the oyster tacos) and, their great staff. I'll leave it to you to come up with your own take on this place but, I recommend you stop by and, check out their new digs.
