First time at Happy Day Tavern and WOW 🤩 The vibes were EVERYTHING! The drinks were great, killer atmosphere, and the staff made me feel like a regular instantly. TVs everywhere for the game, but still cozy enough for a chill hang. Definitely will be back! 🙌🍻

Happy Day Tavern is a laid-back neighborhood spot with great bartenders, good prices, and an easygoing crowd. Simple, welcoming, and always a good time.

I had such a great experience at this bar! The staff was incredibly patient, on point, and took the time to really help me find the perfect drink. I wasn’t sure what I wanted, but they were able to get it down to 2 cocktails, without making me feel rushed. Thanks Isaiah!

I recently visited Happy Day Tavern and honestly it just was not a good experience. From the outside the windows are so dark that I genuinely could not tell if the place was even open. That already felt a little off.
When we sat at the bar it was extremely sticky. My coaster was literally stuck to the counter and would not move. That alone made it hard to relax. The atmosphere felt uninviting overall. There were a lot of uncomfortable stares when we walked in, which did not help.
The screens inside had outdated ads playing. One said Thursdays women drink free, but we were still charged, which was confusing. I ordered a gummy bear martini and was told they could not find the gummy bears, so I ended up getting a strawberry instead. The beer on tap tasted very flat and earthy.
The only positive was that the bartender was kind and did attend to us. She seemed nice and tried her best.
Overall it just needs a deep clean, updated visuals, a more welcoming vibe, and an experienced bartender. I really wanted to like it, but it missed the mark for me.
