Brass Lantern Tavern

i just had the most wonderful experience at this restaurant/​bar! i took my guy out for his 34^th bday for lunch and drinks… the food was amazing, all fresh with amazing flavors! the drink selection was amazing too! my guy tried 3 different drinks, sourpatch kid, spring fling, and a blue drink made with malibu not sure on the name but he said all 3 were delicious. our waitress slash bartender was amazing, she made us feel like weve been coming there for years eventhough this was our first time. we were so impressed we gave her a 20 dollar tip… i was a waitress/​bartender at one time and trust me you really have to go above and beyond to get a 20 out of me because as hard as i know the job is you still have to try and connect with everyone you serve and not for nothing but there are a few waitresses that ive come across that grasp this and brittany is one of those few. i also dont hand out 5 stars lightly i am in customer service so i know what i expect from people i give my hard earned cash to and am not shy about complaining if i feel the service is lacking. one of the owners was also in and took time to sit and chat with us she also comped my honey on one of his bday drinks! we could tell they were busy getting ready for tonights busy time but they never once made us feel like they didnt have enough time even though i know they probably didnt. also even after the tables started filling up the service still felt unrushed which is a testament to brittany as she was the only one i saw taking orders and getting drinks. again i cant express how much this experience brightened our day! (we both ordered the grilled wrap with one of there signiture sauces… sooo yummy! we also both ordered a side of there home made thick fries… i got the garlic parm on the side for dipping… yum…the bday boy got seasoned fries which was also. yum)

Service was good once the waitress came over. Had to wait 15 minutes for a drink with a very quiet crowd. Ordered a burger with blue cheese in it and asked for medium but got well done, was not impressed and had to wait almost 20 minutes for that with also only a hand full of tables. Food has been good before but not sure what happened on this visit as I usually stop every other month, now it will be far less frequent. The waitress was the one that was doing her job as she was friendly and did all she could.

My husband and I love this place … the food is phenomenal !!! We just had dinner there tonight 2÷26÷16 … My husband had the fish and homemade mac and cheese it was delicious. I had the burbon steak with rice the steak was perfect and the rice was so well seasoned. For dessert we had 5he apple crisp and the banana cake… OMG … the frosting on the cake was just so delicious the cake was moist and not over baked … we finished it off with a tall glass of milk. Perfect ending to a long hard week at work !!!

Found this tavern (gem) on the way to NYC. Excellent soup and burgers were incredible. The staff was very friendly and efficient. We will definitely be back!

i’m very rarely on this side of town, but i have driven by this place a few times not really knowing what the deal was. i then saw them featured on Dining with WBNG and i thought they looked worth checking out
i’ve only been here twice, but when i’m in this area i will stop in here if i’m hungry and have the time. the place is pretty nice on the inside, very clean and comfortable. the service has been good for me so far and the food has been good too, just one complaint really. i tried the mexican burger, which has pepperjack cheese and a jalapeño popper. the patty on it was near perfect, possibly my new favorite in the area, or at least in the top 3 anyways. the flavor of this burger overall was good and i would definitely suggest trying one. i got a side of fries and i suspect they are house cut, which if it’s the case these are among the top 5 fresh cut fries i’ve had. most of the time fresh cut fries remain tough in the center, but not these ones, they were cooked very well.
now onto the wings. so far i’ve tried the tavern wings, Erik’s sauce, and the BBQ wings. the sauces have all been pretty good, my favorite was the tavern sauce. i don’t even know how to describe it really. sorry but you’ll just have to take my word for it that it’s good! the erik’s sauce was good too, like they say on the menu, it’s a little smokey. while it was good, i probably won’t get it again because i liked the tavern sauce that much more. as for the BBQ sauce, it was a very dark sauce, seems like there’s lots of molasses in it, and i think some steak sauce too. it works good for wings and it would probably work good on ribs too, but i don’t think it would work on brisket or pulled pork (now i’m just rambling i guess, this place doesn’t even have ribs, brisket, or pp!). now onto my one issue. the wings need more time in the fryer. all 3 dozen that i’ve had weren’t that crisp, the meat was hard to pick all the way off the bone. they do seem pretty meaty though and the bleu cheese they have is also pretty good.
this place does also have some pretty decent beers on tap. that being said, i don’t think i’d ever go here solely to drink, it’s just not the right vibe for me, but for a meal this place is worth checking out. 3.5 stars (would be a 4 if the wings were cooked better!)

This place has the best burgers and wings around!!! The lantern burger is my favorite. The service has always been great and the owner has always been very nice to me.

Absolutely love it. Go with the later burger. Tavern sauce wings and a break up brownie

Come here if you want to be waited on by girls with the IQ Of 5, get called a liar by the owner after they do not give you all your wings. Oh yeah and wing night? Be ready to pay 7 $ for ten wings but wait! You can get celery and blue cheese for them for extra money! (Something everyone else gives for free) come if you have an extra hour to wait for drinks too. definitely won’t be back anytime soon.

This little place knows their food & their service. Right On! My first time here with a large group of girls and it was amazing. Right off the start great service. We all ordered off the menu and for our size the wait time was under what I expected Hi-​5 ! The dishes were large portions hot & nicely presented. All 10 girls loved the food. I had the tavern skins that were not frozen out of the box deff homemade, everything looked «scratch made» and our waitress who was describing every detail of the food was actually the cook too! Cooking in the kitchen & working the floor wow really dedicated and talented! You Rock! I also had the blue burger good size and cooked perfect med rare came on a great roll (the roll is important on any burger am I right? and they know it too) From one cook to another you guys are giving it your best and it shows. Very tasty, clean presentations and our service was great even another waitress was joking with us, I felt I was in someones dining room. We’ll be back soon!

Love it, go to restaurant. There beef pot pie is one of the best things I ever ate.
Depending on the night or day, you can get things from wings to whole Maine lobster…

I had the speidie sub tavern style and it was excellent. All homemade sauce and chips, prices are good and great beers on tap at good prices

Delicious! We came for lunch and sat outside, it was perfect. Great service, great food. No complaints!
Shrimp Salad special — must have!

I Love the Brass Lantern Tavern. They have awesome wings (boneless honey mustard are my fav), delicious onion rings, and desserts that are a great touch when you aren’t quite full yet.

I’m not sure how to describe their food other than extremely mediocre bar food and not worth the price. They’re trying to blend too many things. On one hand they want to be a «family restaurant», yet 10 feet away you see a bunch of the regular drunks that sit at the bar. I ordered a special – prime rib – and it was hardly prime. When I asked to speak to the chef a short girl came out, she looked to be no older than 20, and stared at me like I had 10 eyes. She could not have been more bothered by a legitimate customer complaint. My girlfriend ordered wings and french fries. The wings were overdone… way too crispy. They don’t give very large portions of french fries either. If you’re going for this type of food, spend your money at a place like The Relief Pitcher or a place thats actually established.

Excellent food, great atmosphere. Nice outside deck to hang out on in the summer. Kid friendly and the owners are fantastic people. Never had a bad meal here.

Good house wings… A little small inside, but worth it!
