About The Union Tavern

The Union Tavern offers decent food with two vegan options available. The menu features a variety of dishes, including the highly praised Fish Fry and the incredible chicken french sandwich, which has received enthusiastic recommendations. The fries are consistently excellent—crispy, salted just right, and without the need for ketchup. The establishment also boasts an extensive beer and cocktail list, with favorites like the Three Heads Blueberry Belgian Waffle Cream Ale. The cozy atmosphere reflects its mid-1800s building, creating a warm setting reminiscent of the 60s Seabreeze heyday, making it perfect for early dinners. Service can sometimes be a bit overwhelmed or slow, especially when busy, and at times, orders may be delayed or items missed. However, staff members are generally friendly and try their best. The food is often hot, fresh, and tasty, with some dishes like pot roast being particularly good, though some items like pan-seared fish may be dry. The house tartar sauce and hot fries add extra flavor, elevating the meal. Despite some shortcomings, the friendly service and nostalgic ambiance make it a place worth visiting, and many customers look forward to returning for different dishes.
