Service is always outstanding. Carol, the owner, is always there and takes care to make sure all have a great time. We love the neighborhood feel. Sort of like our own Cheers.

I was here on 11/22/24 around 6:30 pm. I did not try any of the food. This is an atmosphere review of the place. I came here for my first time with an attractive lady friend and when we first walked in, almost all of the male customers (creeps) around the bar were very obviously creep staring at my lady friend to the point where she was very uncomfortable and didn’t want to be there. I tried to make the best of it to find 2 seats for us around the bar and everyone was still just creepily staring at her. It was beyond awkward. I found some empty seats by the bar taps and no one was polite enough to move even an inch for me to pass through to get to the empty seats. The place was not packed, it had a normal amount of people inside. I was finally sitting down when this extremely rude disheveled old man (maybe very drunk) pushed over me to read the bar taps and I just stood up and looked at him and he then went back to another seat. Everyone at this point is still staring in the most creepy and awkward way that we just walked out. I spent $140.00 at another place down the road called Grato. I did not expect dive bar behavior and atmosphere at a nice place like this.

My Mom and I enjoyed our first visit to the Prospect Tavern. What a fantastic family-owned business! The owner, her sons, and the staff were incredibly kind and helpful. And the food was AMAZING!!! We enjoyed the potato skins and a cocktail to start. We had the most DELICIOUS pot roast and prime rib for our entrees! Our shared dessert was a warm brownie and ice cream. It was oh so good! Our compliments to the family owners and the chef. Bravo! We cannot wait to retrun to this relaxed, cozy, friendly Tavern.

Thank you I had a great start on celebrating my birthday month! I really appreciate for the understanding of on how many guests I had for my reservation and was willing to do separate checks for all of us for my friends and I because of our disabilities making an exception for us. So Thank you Prospect Tavern for understanding!!! I really do appreciate it and was very happy you guys were willing to do all separate checks!

Great place with an outside patio and a fireplace in the dining room. Friendly staff and pretty good service. Decent dining options for a pub/tavern and every thing I’ve ordered was good. Been there 4-5 times.

Gotta admit I had very slow service and I was hoping for idk something better for the French opinion soup. So was having a bummer time. But this burger is the bomb. For real so freaking good. Great medium. And the fries tbh looking small portion. But that bite omg wow. Get the burgers and fries here. No lie delicious. Get that brownie at the end. Solid comes with ice cream.

Better than what I expected the food was definitely delicious the French onion was superb. The drinks were definitely good. No I did not ask for my espresso martini but I was pleasantly delighted with the offerings they had. Service was good, our waiter was attentive and accommodating. If only they could had made me a Patty melt that would have been even better...ooh wellz til the next venture. Oooh and the fries were great .
