Great early dinner and drinks at Elm Street Taproom before a show at The Rockwell. Bartender was helpful with beer selection and let my husband taste a couple of options before deciding. Our server was friendly and attentive without being obtrusive. The place has a fun relaxed vibe. I'd definitely go back.

Went here on Friday night for dinner. Despite the restaurant being fairly empty the service was a bit slow, but the servers we had were friendly. I thought the drinks were pretty good, but was disappointed in the food. I got the chicken shnitzel, which was a smaller portion size than I expected and fairly dry. My partner got a sausage dish that also seemed a bit small given the entree prices. We ended up needing to order an appetizer just to have a normal amount of food for dinner, which is unusual for us.

Over cooked burgers and horrible mocktails, paired with bizarre service. Not looking to go back anytime soon or ever

This is a long overdue review, but I held a reception-style birthday party there in the front area in Jan 2025 and everyone still raves about it. The drinks were amazing and the staff was very easy to work with. Our server in particular stood out - I believe his name was Ricardo. He remembered everyone's names and drink orders and came around just when you were finishing to take another order. He was also very personable and really made it feel like a party. It was also one of the more reasonable minimums we came across on our search. I'd recommend Elm St Taproom for anyone looking to host an event on this side of the river!

I've also been here for dinner/drinks and always had great experiences.

Kind of unfriendly hosts, needlessly aggressive on a quiet night. Wait staff was fine though.

Awesome spot. Incredible bartenders. Excellent food. Highly recommend.

Big plus for serving different types of beer in the matching type of glass.

Extremely disappointing. Ordered a martini, which was a mistake on my behalf. Bartender butchered it. Food was subpar at best. Love the option to easily split a meal.

Honestly pretty lame food, turkey club and a Guinness was $36 (including 18% tip), Guinness tasted weird too. Good service tho

Peggy Black

Great beer selection

Great place I usually come for a night cap or some munchies. However the pornstar martini was not it... probably why it comes with prosecco. Our waitress thankfully removed the drink.

We had waffle fries and the chicken nuggets which I highly suggest!

Steven

Good vibe, but for a tap room they were out of a lot of varieties and food came out a bit on the colder side. Perhaps an off day, will have to give them another try

ASK FOR REESE! Her service was awesome. Food was great and we left totally satisfied. We’ll definitely be back.

20$ for the crunch wrap. Thats insane pricing for the size of what came out.
