Went to try it out during Restaurant Week in West Reading. I had the $30 special which included Crab ball appetizer, Manchester by the Sea– sea scallops on a bed of orzo, spinach and tomato, and Old Fashioned Chocolate Cake. hubby had a Reuben and fries. Everything was excellent.

West Reading tavern is a quaint little bar and restaurant. Wasn’t sure if they were open as the only section that is open for dining is the back patio. When you walk in there is no one to greet you or direct you as to where to go. We walked to the back of the restaurant and was greeted warmly by employees. Just a tip to the staff maybe have 1 PERSON to greet guests. We were seated within 10 minutes as the patio was full. They have a great outdoor patio space. It is small but nicely decorated and have big umbrellas to block the blazing sun. I love that. Our server Jordan was great! She provided us with friendly attentive service and our food was out in about 20 min. We ordered 2 white russian cocktails which I believe may have been shaken by the bartender as there was foamy bubbles on top. Just FYI…that is a stirred drink. Our food came and it looked good. I ordered the Pork Schnitzel and hubby had the BBQ pulled pork sandwich. The schnitzel was ok. I will say the price is too high for that item and it’s quality in my opinion. It was bland but very heavy white butter sauce very greasy. The pulled pork was pretty good. All in all I give this establishment a 3 star review. The service was solid and I value that over almost anything. I will visit again when inside seating is allowed.

This is a place just to go for beer, THAT’S IT!! I try to support our locals business, but if you don’t respect me or my family I cannot support you. I took my mom for the first time and the experience was unpleasant. I don’t know if I have the space or time to write everything that was wrong in this place. First, we chose the patio area since it was a nice day. When we sat down the chairs were full of cobwebs and spiders walking on the chairs (one of my daughter’s biggest phobias) we didn’t say anything, we shook them with our hands and sat down. The waitress came to take the order, we ordered food quickly. We were tired and very hungry. First, what is on the menu does not reflect what they bring you and charge you. We order the “build your own burger “ it’s says for $13.50 ,you can add your toppings but there was an extra charge of $1 for bacon and $.50 for mushrooms. I confirm this info with the waitress ask her “ I can add as many toppings, but there’s an extra charge for bacon & mushrooms “ she confirm with #10 YESES. We proceed to order #3 of those . Between the three persons that choose this option , some of the toppings were: peppers, jalapeños, pickles, bacon and mushrooms. Also I said if I can change my bread to brioche they said “it would be a charge of $1.50 “I switch it. While we were waiting(a lot by the way) One of the waiters(a different one)came and said “the chef want you to know that there would be and extra charge for pickles and jalapeños” Huh!! I told her “that was not what it says on the menu and ask my waitress before ordering””she said well that’s what he said” we were hungry so we were like… Whatever.!! When they bring the plates the presentation very disappointing. Plates were dirty and the disproportion on the plates were very noticeable. One of the plates( by the way the expensive one) barely had fries, while in the other one there were a lot and other one was in the middle not at lot of fries but some. We were like wow! “They barely put fries on your plate. When they bring my plate…they bring my burger in a ciabatta bread when I order a brioche. I had to switch it for the regular burger bun they had. When the waitress came back I made the comment about the noticeable disproportion of the fries and presentation. Her response was “ what did you count them” super rude and sarcastic. When I was about to finally eat my burger there was no peppers or pickles ( the extra charge that was not in the menu btw) I told the waitress, they didn’t put the pickles or peppers. She said “we don’t have peppers “ but she never let us know ahead of time . They gave me #2 pickles and I finally ate my burger . The waitress never brought napkins, would pass by the table and wouldn’t even look at us. When we asked for the bill I told her I would like to speak with the manager. Manager came and while I was explaining the experience I just had… the owner Mark step in the conversation with a hard face and a agitated energy. We explained the several situations. One of his responses was “ he does not use measurements in his kitchen, that he had never had complaints about the portions of the fries. He try to say that the fries were a “gift” because the quality of his burger cover the expense and more. That there were no places that included fries with your burger( not sure where he has been) he had the nerve to say if we wanted more fries( with a very passive aggressive tone) when we were done eating and some of the food were packed in boxes. After not taking the criticism and try to justify the several mistakes and rude actitud of his waitress. He processed to take one of the burgers out the bill.

Delicious dishes, day and night! Regular restaurant in the back, tavern up front. Patio seating when weather suits! Awesome servers and a roaming art show with local artists and more. Try the unique Tavern seafood salad or excellent truffle fries with roasted garlic aioli!

We waited about 20 minutes for our server to come to the table and over an hour for the food. We didn’t get utensils or napkins when we were seated. The food was pretty good though. The burger was made very well and the fries are delicious, i just think the wait for the food is a bit crazy. I also had a pomegranate martini and that was amazing.

Stopped by this place on a whim and was blown away! The staff was super friendly, and the food came out quickly. I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich juicy, perfectly seasoned, and the fries were crisp and hot. Great prices for the portion size. Will definitely come back!

I stopped in right around lunchtime with a colleague and was immediately seated and greeted. The dining room was just as you would find in most Western European pubs, which is pretty awesome.
We opted for the New England clam chowder and Tavern burgers. If you love clam chowder as I do, you absolutely have to have a few bowls. And the Tavern Burgers are very good as well!
