I recently had the pleasure of celebrating my best friend David's birthday at The Craftsman Tavern, and I must say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The Craftsman Tavern exudes warmth and charm from the moment you walk in. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, making it the perfect place for a celebration. The staff greeted us with smiles and made us feel like part of their extended family. Now, let's talk about the food and drinks. The menu at The Craftsman Tavern is a culinary delight. We ordered a variety of dishes, and every single one of them was a gastronomic masterpiece. The flavors were exquisite, and the presentation was top-notch. David, the birthday boy, couldn't have been happier with his choice of venue. The drink selection is equally impressive. The cocktails were expertly crafted, and the beer and wine choices were excellent. It's evident that The Craftsman Tavern takes pride in its beverage offerings. But what truly stood out was the impeccable service. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and made sure that we had everything we needed to make David's birthday celebration unforgettable. The Craftsman Tavern has certainly become a favorite spot for me and my friends. It's a place where you can enjoy fantastic food and drinks in a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just looking for a great meal, I highly recommend The Craftsman Tavern. David's birthday was a memorable one, thanks to this wonderful establishment!

Decent food - nothing special but good and well cooked. Service was a little slow but it was busy and they didn’t have many servers.

OK so I went to the bar and ordered a cocktail. I was waiting for my burger to go. I ordered a Manhattan and the bartender poured a drink from a barrel on the bar and served it to me. I’ve drank the cocktail and was so drunk from one cocktail I was seeing double… I couldn’t even drive home, and I barely made it home safe. Why does A bartender pour a drink from a barrel? I barely made it home with my life from one drink. I do Not recommend this bar.

We sat at the bar and it took 27 minutes to get my beer. Placed the order just before happy hour ended. 17 minutes later, the other bartender asked if I wanted anything (my 1st drink had been sitting in front of me empty this whole time). He tries to get it for me and the keg is tapped. 10 minutes later, I finally get my beer. I would have chosen another beer but I never got the chance to ask for a different beer. We left after the terrible service and bad flat bread. The bar has 10-12 seats. A blind bartender could provide better service. We cut our losses there and went to another place where we ended up chatting with another couple at the bar. We were telling them our story and they immediately knew exactly who we were talking about. Lol. "He can be moody sometimes" is what they said. Last time we're going there and everyone in our neighborhood will be hearing this story. The service was so bad that it made me post my 1st review ever.
