If you are looking for good food and great beer, go to Tallgrass. I could end there, its that simple.
The Tallgrass tap house is the last remnant of the old Tallgrass Brewery, a great brewery that fell victim to the change in the micro brewery conditions in the 20 teens. The good news is that you can still get awesome Tallgrass beer and you can get some really great food at the same time.
I would describe the menu as pub food plus plus. All the usual suspects are here - briers, wings, fish and chips - with a whole lot of extras. The poutine would pass in Canada. The Korean wings are amazing (and STICKY!) and Tap Mac (Mac & Cheese) will make you question how much you like your moms cooking. Vegetarian options are available though limited. Same with kids options. But thats the thing, there are options so you can go in a group with vegetarians, kids, GF and non-dairy people and all find something to eat.
Seating, parking and wait times are all going to vary with the calendar. If you dont know, Manhattan is a college town so if you show up on a random July Wednesday you will park at the door, get seated immediately and have you choice of locations. Show up on a game weekend in September and you should count on an hour, park at the mall and your table is your table.
Service is going to follow the same pattern and so will atmosphere. Busy times it going to be longer waits, less interaction with your server and LOUD. Slower times food will arrive fast, servers will talk you though the beer selections and you can gossip about people without a concern. I will leave it to you which version makes it a 4 star rather than a 5 because I know a LOT of people love the loud version.
Beer selection is seasonal but I have never had a bad beer there. If you cant find something you like, thats probably a your problem.
We get to MHK 2-3 times a year. Tap House is usually our first night or our last.
Cant recommend enough!

Delaney was AWESOME!!! She was super friendly, answered all our questions about the food, and made great recommendations.
The food was a step up from what you expect in a brewery atmosphere. I admit I did not try the beer, but I recommend the Korean Wings!!! And the smoked tomato aioli..... SOOOOO GOOD!! (I used this to dip my fries in)
Did I mention Delany was AWESOME!! Promised I would leave a review, and I mean everything I said above.

Was here with a group of 10 for a birthday party for our 83 year old friend. We brought our own Birthday cake. Once seated we were advised by the manager there is a $20 fee if we bring our own cake in. We thought they were joking but found that we would have to pay the $20 if wanted to eat the cake we brought. We were told as long as we didn't open the cake at the table we wouldnt be charged the fee. This sounds crazy but had I not been there I would have never believed it. You have be warned.

I don’t leave reviews unless service is above and beyond. Shoutout to Aliyah, our server, for going above and beyond! I have been in hospitality management for 15+ years and her kindness has truly made a difference. She is a valuable asset to your team, if she is not shown value here she will be poached by another company in a heartbeat. Food was delicious as well and my husband enjoyed the music and atmosphere.
Great place to eat and have fun with great staff & super food. Took our family here to celebrate our Grandaughter’s 16 birthday. What a blast!

My husband and I come here all the time and usually it is very good. Last night my burger that was ordered well done was brought to me as medium. We couldn't flag down our server for at least 30 minutes to correct it (he never checked on us), by then my husband had finished eating while I was waiting. They made me a new burger which was to the correct doneness which we just packed up to go because we had been there longer than we planned to. When I went to eat it today I've noticed it does not have the correct toppings on it. Most disappointing visit we've had and will likely will not come back.

We asked the bartender at the Bluemont (our designated stay for manhattan trips) and he recommended going to tall grass taphouse. He said he used to work there and recommended the nachos and the Flautas for an appetizer so that’s what we got. Definitely a good choice 👍
The rooftop has exclusive drinks that can’t be ordered on any other floor so make sure to book it to the roof. We came in for dinner Tuesday around 6 and we were able to snag the last table. I was praying as we climbed the three flights of stairs that they had high chairs available. Thank goodness they did! If you are unable to walk up the stairs I will let you know there isn’t an alternative to getting up there.
The menu was HUGE. It definitely took some time figuring out what I wanted to order and the vast variety of cuisine made me nervous on the quality of the food. I played it safe and got a trusty steak (steak frites) with French fries. The steak was of a quality cut but was lacking flavor outside the steaks own natural flavor profile. A touch of salt would have sealed the deal for me during the cooking process. What saved it was the oh so very delicious compound butter resting on top of the steak 🤤 (I wouldn’t be so particular if the steak wasn’t $39). What really impressed me were the cocktails. Perfectly balanced and smooth.
Overall we enjoyed our experience and would recommend the restaurant to those passing through town. Thank you for the great service 🙏
