We have enjoyed Old Whitten Tavern for years. All of the food we have tried on their menu is wonderful, but our go-to favorite is the Bonnie Melt. Great food, service, and phenomenal mixed drink menu. If you are a cocktail enthusiast, definitely check them out. They are also family friendly with options for everyone on their menu.

Food was good but when they pretip themselves 20%, kinda of turns me off, probably would have gotten more because service was good but, it was just 2 of us, I understand if it was a big party, I've waited tables and bartended, never heard of adding a.tip for a 2 top!
