Went to New Albany Tavern to try their burger week burger but will be back with my husband for a date night. The burger - the double decker burger - was moist and flavorful. We also got the parmesan truffle fries. There were so many fries to share! Everyone was friendly. This time we got the order to go but I look forward to going back for a dinner inside. read more

Good atmosphere, great, personable service. I had the Kickin Chicken Sandwich - (Breaded chicken shaken in rocky seasoning topped with bacon and pepper jack cheese. Served with lettuce and chipotle bacon mayo on brioche bun and house cut fries.). Good, but I wish the seasoning had been more generously applied, I didnt taste any of it. Frickle Spears - Hand breaded pickle spears with chipotle ranch. The pickles were in the elite cut - spears - but they were incredibly salty. Luckily my dining partner loved them and they did not go to waste. Beer Battered Onion Rings were also so close to being perfect, however, they were too oily and so I did not eat them aside from my one sample. I like this place enough though to come back and try other things though read more

We were very sad to see our friends from Pints and Union leave, but are SO happy we stopped by tonight. The service is great! Staff stopped and cleaned off your table as they passed, even though they weren't our staff. It's a bit loud, but still laid back enough to have a decent conversation. They serve their beer cheese warm, which is a nice change as most places have cold beer cheese to spread on a pretzel. Wings were crisp and come with three types of sauces to choose. I secretly love to try coleslaw whenever I see it on the menu and it was with it. Not too sweet and a good vinegar bite on the back end. The Hubs had a grilled chicken salad that was nice. Could have used more vegetables on it but it was a good sized dinner salad. Great beer and cocktail selection as well. read more

Tonite was a very packed night for this little local pub. Upstairs and down was packed with only 1 server and bartender on staff. Our server did everything she could with also waiting on other tables and a 30 top party by herself. Spicy stack- decent burger, little over done- spicy mayo was good and helped with the burger, onion rings were crispy. OLT mac-n-cheese- creamy, Light cheese sauce, noodles were good with a little crunch to the top layer that added a great texture. Chicken was grilled and held in the geill flavor with a little hint charred spices. Our go to spot - food was still good, hopefully the management will staff better to help lut the girls. read more

Had dinner at the New Albany Tavern. The service was very good. They had a Tuesday special of $2 off tequila drinks. Ordered a margarita and pretzel and beer cheese. The beer cheese was the typical Kentucky cold beer cheese. It was very good but pretzel was in a butter and garlic sauce which was a tad too heavy for the beer cheese. I ordered the rosemary roast beef sandwich and my wife did the fish and chips. The tartare sauce for the fish was nicely done with dill. Everything was served very hot and was good. Fries could have beef a little more crispy but still good. read more

Tavern always seems to be full of customers which is so great to see for a New Albany spot. The menu has a little bit of everything and seems to be good "bar food". Apparently, there is a bit of a secret menu that consist of poplar past specials that you can still order. That is how we ended up the Buffalo chicken Mac and cheese! It's a great little comfort food and cozy vibe place for dinner. The service staff is working double time to keep up, but we did end up having to wait at the table awhile to be greeted and then before she could grab our drinks. It would be great to see a few more servers to keep up so it stays a popular spot. read more

New Albany Tavern understood the assignment. Great service, really good bar food, and strong cocktails. The chicken tenders are thick, juicy, and insanely crispy with legit dipping sauces. Wings are solid. The Caesar salad? Yes, please... blackened chicken with house made dressing! Also, great daily specials Very happy this is in my backyard. I'll be back. read more

Really enjoyable pub experience with wicked tasty food! We chose our own seats in the bar and had a little wait for drinks but they were busy. After the server got to us no complaints! It wasn't too loud with the game on but definitely a pub vibe. We started with the $1/per wings as the app, really well cooked and the ranch was delicious! We shared the fish and chips (nice big portion!) and they were delightful. The onion rings were not my favorite but I'm a bit of an onion ring snob ‍ I also had the lemonita to drink which was basically a large lemon drop. Very good! read more

Just as good as the other locations, this one had a great set of burger options, the "Danfredo" which is a personal favorite but this time I opted for the Knocker Burger, which is a traditional style burger but it's super juicy, done to your specifications, with standard trimmings, but the patty is flavorful and the bun is just firm enough to hold everything together but not so much that it detracts from the flavors or textures of the other ingredients. Solid choice paired with fries, and the portobello fries as an appetizer were worth it. They were lightly breaded and fried just right. Solid choice in New Albany, and this restaurant group also owns a few others and they are all managed well. Looking forward to a return visit! Get the espresso martini if you like chocolate cake, mochas, or chocolate in general! read more

Although an extension of the Tavern pubs in Louisville, I can't help but compare New Albany Tavern to the predecessor at this same location. The new look is cleaner and less cluttered, but the layout is the same. There are booths to the left and bar stools to the right. Large doors at the front open up to let in the pleasant fall air and sunshine. Stairs at the back go upstairs to more seating and a private party area when reserved. I love that the new concept has table service. I always found that an issue previously. Service was prompt and helpful. No issues here at all. The menu is full of pretty standard, but well-executed pub fare. I really enjoyed the Knocker Burger with fries. Exactly what I wanted today! There's a full draft menu. I was surprised by the variety of cocktails on the menu and look forward to trying some of those in the future! Overall, a great experience and I'm thrilled that there's a new spot in downtown! read more

Second stop on our Burgers on the Bricks tour. Again we were greeted by friendly staff as soon as we walked in the door. The restaurant was warm and inviting with a large window view. We had the Double Decker burger with provolone, Swiss and grilled onions and the garlic truffle fries. The burger was massive and juicy. The fries were coated in a delicious Parmesan garlic. We enjoyed our food. read more

I had the Reuben sandwich with onion rings. And for an extra side the fried mushrooms. Everything was delicious! But the mushrooms were far superior than any restaurant in the area. They are meaty and batter perfectly. I will get them EVERY TIME I go! No one does them this well. Our server was great and fast, we were on our lunch hour. And the restaurant is nice, clean but nothing exciting. I like that's it's an old downtown building and has some character. Probably has some spirits hanging around read more

I'm giving this place 5 stars because I've had their stuff over in Louisville and love it, plus the service for the new New Albany location was very good. I got the Railroad smoker Mac and cheese, which I was excited about but didn't love this. It has corizo and blackened chicken on it but the chorizo was very minimal and the chicken was hard to find as well as it was mixed in with the macaroni, plus I'm not sure it was seasoned with the blackened seasoning. I know this is a personal taste thing so I didn't want to hurt a local business and instead am excited to try the other menu items... or go back to the sliders that I already know are killer! This is a great new spot in Indiana, so give it a shot. read more

Best fish and chips by far in New Albany, batter is perfect and great chips (Fries) as an Englishman I would recommend this 100%

The Spicy Bloody Mary is to die for! I had the Buffalo chicken sandwich, and it was delicious. The house-made ranch is also excellent. My partner had the burger and gave it rave reviews. Our server, Mary Beth, was incredibly responsive and provided the perfect balance of attentiveness and professional service. This tavern is a great addition to downtown New Albany; it has the perfect vibe for kicking back and relaxing. read more

wonderful service. the best onion rings I have literally ever had! I had the double grilled cheese and it was fantastic! I highly recommend eating here! read more

Order DoorDash from here fairly regularly and it's always delicious and correct! Nothing is ever missing, which alone is impressive, but food quality is equally impressive. read more

Tried this place now 2 times and both times have been a big disappointment came here with my bf and alone and was we were completely ignored by the staff for 20min no menus or anything waited while they were on their phone and gossiping to each other or flirting to customers. After waiting for ever we finally got service it was over uncomfortable atmosphere food was way overpriced and not very good at least it came out timely. Just any time been in there was bad experience next time i was in there only got water and tried to get the attention of the bartenders again had to wait over 30min with no one in there but one other person they were on phones talking to each other and just no interest in working. Just really uncomfortable not fun place to try to get lunch or go to i wouldn't recommend the food or atmosphere me or my bf will be back read more

Kate and Reagan were absolutely amazing bartenders!! Attentive, friendly, and genuinely great at what they do. The food and drinks were also super good, and we've always had positive experiences with the staff here overall. That said, while sitting at the bar top, my fiancé and I noticed a situation that felt very unprofessional. There was an older woman sitting at the bar who appeared to be drinking heavily while wearing a tavern-branded shirt. From the way employees interacted with her and from what we observed, it seemed she may be in a management position. She was also going into employee-only areas, which made it unclear whether she was off the clock or not. Regardless, wearing branded clothing while drinking excessively at your own workplace reflects poorly on the establishment. More concerning, we overheard her making negative comments about employees who were actively working and who have always provided us with wonderful service in the past. (specifically calling employees actively working "a f*cking b*tch - talk about unprofessional and not representing your employer well at all!!) If she is in a management role, this behavior is extremely disappointing and unprofessional. I truly hope this is addressed, because the bartenders and staff deserve better leadership, and this place has so much potential when the focus is on the excellent service and food. read more

First visit won't be my last. This place is already running in a smooth fashion even though it recently opened. The service was friendly and attentive. I had the beer battered fish & chips and this was spot on excellent. Even the hush puppies were delicious. Great place to have a beer or drink and watch a game. read more

The food was delicious. We got the pretzel and beer cheese appetizer, the sliders, and the fish and chips. Will definitely be back read more

Staff is friendly, service is good, food is subpar. Fish n chips was disappointing, soggy fries and batter on the fish was under cooked. The coleslaw was the best part of the meal. I will definitely comeback, but will order something else. read more

Amazing food and vibes. Their house salad and chicken tenders are 10/10. They always have great specials, too

We were traveling through and decided to get a hotel in New Albany and then look for a restaurant. New Albany has a really cool small downtown area and we found this restaurant. We walked into a cool bar and small restaurant, the waitress was very friendly and helpful. She had several suggestions which we ordered. She was spot on, we had the truffle burger and the railroad smoked Mac and cheese both were delicious and the service was excellent read more

Two of us stopped by on a Saturday around 6:30pm. We were immediately seated. My wife order the cod sandwich and thought it was very good. I ordered the Chicken Quesadilla appetizer for my dinner and it was good. Normal tavern atmosphere with very good service. read more

The ambiance is great, the burger is great, the pretzels- leave a lot to be desired. We have eaten here twice and the food is decent; yet overpriced and the drinks (specifically the margaritas- are mid). It's a place you go once or twice and forget about it. There are a lot of other spots in the area that provide better food and more value for the money. read more

We eat at the Old Louisville spot weekly, glad to have one on the cool side of the bridge. Good food, good people. Make sure not to serve flat beer next time, but hey, a beers a beer. read more

Didn't feel to welcome when we first got there but the young lady that help and served us was very sweet and personable! Food was great! Planning to revisit so hopefully there is more of a warm welcome. read more
