An edible 1$ burger - need I say more? Cheap beer, cheap food, crab legs for 15$ which were phenomenal. This place is a staple of the neighborhood, they don’t run on profit - they run for the community.
Love you guys.

I said the food was not pleasant and a little cold and the guy took the plate and smacked me in the face with it.

Had the pleasure of choosing Tara Inn for lunch today, every establishment can learn a lesson from the customer service that my friend and I experienced. Upon walking in we were greeted by Peter, Tara’s husband and son-in-law of the founder who named the bar for his daughter 47 years ago. We told him it was our first visit and he offered us seats and welcomed us. The regulars at the bar guided us through the menu and we each had a burger with lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles for $1 per burger expecting very small burgers we were surprised to find them standard sized and deliciously prepared to medium. My friend had the fried shrimp and I had a $13 steamed lobster! Excellent! They offer daily specials and one of the gentleman at the bar told me their steaks are very good. Every staff person went out of their way to make us feel at home. A charismatic women came out from the back and introduced herself as Tara she thanked us for choosing to lunch there. Why can’t other places realize the importance of making a first time patron feel welcome. I Had a great afternoon enjoying the excellent variety of beers that they provide on tap. The charming decor has probably changed little since the ‘70s and that adds to the vibe. If you want to go to the friendliest bar on Long Island, head over to Tara Inn.

Ok so almost 2 months ago after a brief visit to the hospital me and my wife stumbled upon this place , we walked in and turned around the place looked like a dive bar .the next time we went I was reading reviews , we decided to ha e an open mind and check it out . This place was amazing , the menu is on the wall and on paper plates attached to the walls , it's not a fancy place BUT the food was good , it was ridiculously priced , it was three of us we had appetizers 3 meals , 3 drinks and 1 soda was $78 . Was very good , I would go back in an instant . So many choices and responsibility priced .
Great food, nice seasonal pumpkin beer.
