Checkerboard Tavern is a long-standing neighborhood bar known for its friendly locals and smoking-allowed atmosphere. The bar offers a cozy and lively ambiance, featuring a selection of draft beers and various seating options, including the bar side and tables.
The menu has a range of options, including a prime rib dinner and a breaded tenderloin sandwich. The prime rib is highly recommended, with a great selection of sides and delicious au jus and horseradish dipping sauces. The breaded tenderloin is another standout option, with a thick cut and perfectly breaded exterior. The side of fries is generous and served in a cute fryer basket. The food here is really good, making it a favorite spot for many.
The service is attentive and friendly, with staff like Cody, Giselle, and Eli ensuring guests have a great experience. The staff is known for being on their A game, smiling and making sure everyone is taken care of. However, those sensitive to smoke may want to avoid this establishment, as the smoking policy can affect the overall experience.
Overall, Checkerboard Tavern offers a unique and enjoyable dining and drinking experience, with delicious food and a cozy, welcoming atmosphere that keeps guests coming back for more.
