$4 yuenglings, food prices are reasonable and the food was okay. But the vibe was pretty chill and the service is great! I've only been once and it was crowded! I'd go back

I hosted brunch after my son’s baptism here! Everything was absolute perfection and we can’t thank this establishment enough. Tori helped make this event a seamless process. When we arrived everything was ready and everyone was attentive, responsive and so great and helpful. Plus the food was delicious! We will be back soon.

Discrimination Complaint Regarding Bartender at Healy's Tavern
I have been a loyal patron of Healy's Tavern for many years, but my recent experience left me deeply disappointed and upset. Today, while visiting the bar with a friend, we were treated unfairly by one of your bartenders, which I believe was discriminatory.
The bartender approached us and stated that we had to leave because, according to her, expressing religious, political, or personal beliefs was not allowed in the bar. She singled me out for wearing my cross necklace and a T-shirt, which she claimed was offensive. As a practicing Catholic, I wear my cross as a symbol of faith, and I do not believe it is right for someone to be discriminated against for doing so.
I respectfully pointed out that there were other symbols, such as pride flags, displayed in the bar. However, the bartender insisted that we leave and said we were no longer welcome. This treatment shocked and disappointed me after many years of supporting Healy's Tavern.
I believe that this was a clear case of discrimination, and I am extremely concerned by the behavior of your staff. I kindly request that this matter be addressed immediately, as no customer should face such treatment.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I’ve been a loyal customer of Healy's Tavern for years, but my experience today was extremely disappointing. One of your bartenders told me and my Iranian boyfriend to leave, claiming I couldn’t express my religion, politics, or any beliefs at the bar. She took issue with me wearing a Jesus cross and my T-shirt, which she said offended her. I was told to leave because the bar doesn't support "any beliefs." However, I pointed out there are symbols like pride flags displayed, which she dismissed. After years of supporting your establishment, I’m deeply disappointed to face what I feel is clear discrimination for wearing my cross and expressing my beliefs.

Great neighborhood joint with regulars who are all very friendly and up for conversation. The happy hour is the best in town and the food is great and fairly priced.
Parking: Before 7pm parking isn’t an issue

If you have different beliefs, wear a Jesus cross, or lean conservative, expect to be thrown out—after you've already paid for your food.
The bartenders show clear signs of racism!!
Don’t wear a Jesus cross unless you want to get kicked out by the racist bartenders!!!

Really friendly bar with tons of regulars. The food leaves a lot to be desired but the drinks are ICE COLD and the service is great. They always have the games on and someone around to talk to about the games. Very affordable

Had fun but got overcharged on some food. Ordered a large portion of two dishes but received the small sizes. Didn't make a big deal about it but then was charged a second smaller transaction later that evening after I already left. Had to cancel my credit card. Not sure if it got skimmed.
EDIT: Thank you for the response. It seems to be a misunderstanding. I wasn't aware that I started a tab because I just ordered food so I left without closing it. Don't worry about the price change. As I said before it wasn't a big deal, I just considered it as an extra tip. I normally wouldn't have left a review at all but the later charge made me feel uneasy before you explained. I feel like it would be too complicated to refund a portion to a cancelled card so we're all good here. Still had a lot of fun and good food. Adjusted the rating as well.
