Gano Tavern

Temper your expectation, this is a BAR. Great prices, great people, pretty damned good lunch specials! Great deck in back for warm weather.

Local yokel joint. Everyone was very friendly patrons and employees alike.
Nothing special just comfortable place to hang with a beer. Nice touch had complimentary fried baloney, bean soup, corn bread and cake the day we were there. Heard the food was good just none on Sunday.

The food was great, but get it to go if you don’t like a smoke filled room. Yes, they let you smoke inside.

Honestly one of the greatest burgers I have tasted in my lifetime! It is an atmosphere for locals and the era of people that reign from the 60s-​70s but still a solid eat and drink spot. Always good live cover bands, cheap beer, killer fish and burgers, and very friendly wait staff. They pay no attention to smoking laws there but that makes me absolutely love the place even more. Great for a relaxing hangout. I suggest it! GET A BURGER!

It’s a dive that is dirty and has crap food. If you drink a lot, maybe it will taste better. Leave it for the locals.

It’s a bar. It’s a BAR! It’s not a pub, not a grille, not a sports bar (thank you!), not a nightclub. And it’s not Applebee’s, so don’t bring the kiddies.
It’s a bar with a small menu of bar food… burgers, fries, rings, and the infamous fish log, which is delicious and enormous. So big you can order a half log if you prefer. And a new addition, three soft baked pretzel sticks for 4 bucks ($ 4.50 if you want to dip them in melted cheese… but trust me, I’m from the home of the original soft baked pretzel-​shaped pretzel: skip the cheese and get some spicy brown mustard instead. YUM!)
Great friendly laid back atmosphere, full of regulars but welcoming to first timers too. Cheap buckets of Bud or Miller in cans, Bud/​Miller lite on tap along with Yuengling. You’ll feel like everybody’s an old friend, patrons and servers, in no time. The search and download jukebox is here (I guess it’s everywhere now) but a dollar a song. :(I hope to get a chance to ask the owner if there’s something he can do to revise that.
The crowd and vibe is assuredly 35 and beyond. When I was there it seemed like there were a lot of people from the 1970s, like me. (You know, the coolest generation?) So depending on what circles you currently move in, this may or may not be the place for you. But if you like it, I know you will LOVE it.

The burger was pretty mediocre. It definitely was a pre made sysco/​food service burger… pass

WOW, what a hidden gem in the West Chester, Union Center area. A friend took me to this place about a year ago when she told me that they have the best fish sandwiches in the world. YES they do! I can’t believe people aren’t lined out the door to get in this place. Their burgers are good too but we come definitely for their fish sandwich and ask for it on rye bread. Their tartar sauce is really good with their fish. Now it is a bar and if you are offended by a bar atmosphere, you won’t be comfortable here but the folks that work here are incredibly friendly and make you feel at home. When the temperature is warm, they have an awesome deck on the back which is where we ate last night and they have a band on the weekends. I would highly recommend you go check it out, especially if you love a good fish sandwich!!! Gano it is!

Good mews:
Great burger. One of the best I’ve had on a long time.
Bad news:
Complete disregard for non-​smoking laws. But worth it for the burger.

Unless you know it’s here, you don’t know it’s here. This is a local bar/​tavern that serves great Burgers and cheap beer! A lot of locals are here — u shaped bar and quite a few tables for the diners. Has an outside patio/​deck the looks out to the woods. Has a jukebox! One of the best cheeseburgers I have ever eaten and the wait staff is super nice and just like friends.
