Beer was good. Bar service was very good. Pizza was ok. however, the guy taking the pizza orders ( with the knit cap) “forgot” to let us know our pizza was ready!

Great location by the shore. Beer is excellent and a nice selection. Food is available at Archie’s, equally good. Indoor and outdoor seating make for a great vibe. Must visit!

Last night I experienced great service and great beer in a flight, but our food was of poor quality due to being undercooked & barely warm (sandwich bread & tacos). Then when the bill arrived I was charged $25 for my taco meal. When I asked about the excessive charge I was told it was their “special” so I paid more for a “special” placed randomly on the menu? This is the second time my food quality has lacked, last time my Rueben had no meat in it. In the future, I’ll be asking more questions about the food I order & pricing & definitely send back undercooked meals, my bad.

Fantastic beers and the tacos were excellent as well. The wait staff was very friendly and helpful as well. Definitely worth a lunch and drink stop while in traverse city

Great place. Simple menu but everything we had was very good. We specifically had the chips and quest, chicken taco signature style, pork taco signature and veggie signature. All were good to great with chicken and pork as excellent. Beer selection is vast. There is a board up on the wall near the register we missed until round two.

Friendly help Good beer So-so food Staff is friendly and professional….. Came with friends…..was hoping to order the empanadas…….so sad to find they were replaced on menu with tacos…… Ordered the nachos with pulled chicken……unfortunately was completely underwhelmed. Food order came out promptly. Thought $15 for a single serving was overpriced Toppings on nachos were skimpy as well as food was cold. Will not order again.

We wanted to try a place in Traverse City we had never been to for lunch, and this place seemed like a good choice. It's within a short walking distance for the hustle and bustle of downtown, but it feels a little less busy because it's not directly in the middle of it all. If you sit out on the patio, you can see Lake Michigan. The pulled pork tacos were delicious, and so was the beer. They don't have a huge menu (probably not the best place for vegetarians), but what they had was really good. They had good outdoor and indoor seating options, and they had friendly staff. We will most likely come here again next time we're in the area.

We’ve been here before but online ordering and paying right away was frustrating. Understandably the COVID panic is the foundation for the hassle however if you want to relax and try different beers; forget about it. Maybe next year...
I wanted to stop by for a beer and tagabrew. Very limited menu and the IPA that I tried was pretty basic, nothing standout but it was cold. You have to make all purchases through their on-line app at this time. Only patio seating and very limited food menu. I'd like to check it out again after the restrictions are lifted.

We came here for dinner during the pandemic crisis. At first we were disappointed that they only had empanadas, however, they were delicious! The spacing was appropriate, all staff wore masks, ordering was done online. The beer was great as usual. I really like this place.
