Twice I have gone and been ignored. Once my fiancé and I sat down at a table and watched the server talk at the bar and very obviously look at us and ignore us. Tonight we went again to give it a second chance (he used to be a regular lunch patron but this was only my 3rd time back there, the first being a decent experience). The first bartender was counting the drawer (which I understand) but then finally asked us for our drink order and did not even offer a menu. We had to...read full review
The food here is tremendous (wings are on par with Bar-Bill and they have a great fish fry), but one word of caution - do not expect to be able to order meat on Friday’s during Lent. Long time regulars are probably well aware of this policy but we were caught a bit off guard.
Given that they were absolutely packed with people ordering the fish fry, it makes a lot of sense, just something to be aware of.

Brunner's Tavern is a casual neighborhood spot serving delicious food. The French onion soup remains a highlight, while the steak sandwich off the grill has become a hot ticket, with some calling it the best they have ever had. Customers also enjoy the filet sandwich on a toast roll, which is a favorite among many. The tavern offers a variety of menu options, including daily specials like grilled capicola and pepper jack cheese. The macaroni salad is still a standout, although some found the loaded mac and cheese just okay.
The atmosphere can be lively, making it a fun place to hang out, drink, eat, and play darts or trivia. For trivia nights, it is recommended to call ahead for a table, as there are plenty of tables inside and out. The service is great, with the staff working as a team to keep up during busy times. There is limited parking available, and it is cash only. The outdoor patio is pet-friendly, allowing customers to bring their dogs. Visitors often praise the place as a small-town feel with amazing service and food, though it can get busy and loud, especially during peak hours. The restaurant is known for its great fish fry, and although it can be crowded, the food remains excellent. Overall, the food is great and worth a visit.
