Good pizza, great salads, live music, great atmosphere
Had a lovely dinner here for my friend's bachelorette! We had reservations for our group of 7 and were seated next to the wood oven.

The Ransom Tavern combines rustic charm with a warm, inviting atmosphere and a focus on quality food. Known for its delicious white pizzas, especially the white onion pizza without bacon, it is a popular spot for locals and visitors alike. The restaurant offers both dine-in and takeout options, with the bar area being a great place to enjoy drinks and snacks. The service is friendly and efficient, and the atmosphere is cozy, making it suitable for families with young children or groups of friends. Private dining rooms upstairs are available for special occasions, and reservations are recommended. The pizza, particularly the fresh mozzarella pie, remains a highlight, though some find the dough a bit under proofed and bready at times. The bartender is skilled and friendly, offering well-balanced cocktails. Recent reviews also praise the artisan pizza, salads, great beer list, excellent service, and approachable wine and bar menu. Overall, it is a favorite spot for many, though some feel the prices are a bit high.
