The service is great. The team is always checking on the tables and following up on orders. The ambiance is comfortable and welcoming. The food "can" be great. The main problem with this restaurant is that the kitchen doesn't follow the notes from the service staff. They send out orders like a production line and disregard notes on the order. If the management team does not address this, it will impact future business. Customers have limits. read more

We visited Taphouse on the way back from a hike. We decided to sit at the bar and it was surprising there wasn't a whole lot of people for a Saturday afternoon. We started out with the Calamari and it was just ok. We thought they might give us sauce with it but it was pretty dry and a little rubbery. What impressed us more were our entrees. I ordered the vegetable ramen and my boyfriend got the pork tacos. His pork tacos reminded me of true Spanish tacos as the meat was tender and juicy. My vegetable ramen was the perfect amount of savory. It was plenty of food and was packed with veggies (which I love cause sometimes there arent as many veggies in an entree as it sounds). The bartender didn't really come by much even though we were one of the few parties at the bar, but she did let my boyfriend try different beers (we couldn't decide-there was 250+ beers) Overall we had a decent experience and we'll probably come back again if we're up that way. I would love to try other meals next time because they have so many cool choices between the burgers, ramen, tacos, sandwiches etc read more

Been there twice. It's not on my list of revisiting but it's not a bad place to stop for a good drink & bite!

Stopped by for lunch, pick up of course thanks to the covid. The process was easy and safe. Staff wore mask and brought food out to the car. There was a very sweet note thanking is for local business support with an even sweeter surprise inside. Complimentary broccoli soup and two cookies included with our purchase! The rib cheese sandwich was delicious! Fries crunchy! Soup was creamy and the cookies were perfect dessert. Very happy with the lunch. Bit on the pricier side, but was worth it. read more

When every other restaurant these days is cutting portions and over charging, Tap 15 is keeping it real. We were a party of 4 and we enjoyed everything we had. Portion sizes were good and in line with its pricing. My kids were very excited to see their ice cream portion. They actually had a nice size bowl at a reasonable price. Same for the portion of my husband's cake and a nice large mug of coffee. We were also happy to see a restaurant who is not charging you extra for using a credit card. This may be our new favorite spot and we will definitely be coming back! read more

Taphouse 15 - Chicken sandwich which I got grilled rather than fried. Had both and they are both great. Calamari and side of spinach in the background - Bars Near Me - Jefferson, New Jersey

This was our first time here & we'll defenatly be back. Huge portions, great beer selection & very attentive service. Our waiter (George) made great recommendations & didn't forget to bring certain beers with dinner. The runner was also on top of it, knowing who ordered what without asking. Highly recommend, especially for a group looking to hang out & have a good time! read more

Very good menu selection for grill-house worthy meals/snacks. Ambiance is favorable for a dating or family experience. read more

We have passed by this place so many times and never new this place was so yummy. The ambiance was great.. had all the feels.. lots of beers selections.. the food was great we had the truffle mushroom pizza which was so tasty, a total hit from the pizza oven (mind you we love bk pizza so lots to compare too. The wings with chimichuri sauce were bomb.. the burger was good but the truffle fries were better.. most importantly the service and our server Cerle was amazing, she was so kind and went out of her way! What a fantastic experience. read more

Food was good, service was very good. Ambiance is more of a bar type then restaurant. Overall good place and will most likely return.

I ate here 05/30/21. I don't think the burger i ordered is still on the menu. I believe it was a lamb burger, cooked and seasoned perfectly. I really enjoyed my meal. Service was excellent. I highly recommend The Bang Bang shrimp or Fish tacos. Well satisfied. read more

The food and drinks are delicious! The best and freshest seafood! Service was excellent as well!

I came here once back in early 2020 and had a good experience, but unfortunately I can't say my experience was a good one in March 2021. Our server (won't say her name, management you can message me if you want to know) was completely dismissive and uneducated on the menu. We had the menu on our phones, I asked her where the cocktail menu was because I only saw the wine and beer list. She guided me to the wine and beer list and was reading the red wines to me, when I reiterated that I was looking for cocktails she told me they don't have any, but they have every liquor you could want. No actual cocktail menu?? Extremely odd and disappointing. We started with an order of guac, it tasted just like store bought. I ordered a Margherita Pizza and added pesto (or so I thought, when she brought it out without pesto and said nothing, I told her they forgot the pesto and she said "Oh we don't have pesto.") Just had to laugh at that point. The pizza was fine, didn't taste very fresh but nothing too bad. Others in my party got tacos with ground beef and burgers and they said the food was decent, nothing to write home about. Also, my mom asked if the fries were coated in anything because she has a gluten allergy, she just said "I don't know, sorry!" No attempt to go find out. Things have gone very downhill since my 2020 visit. Bottom line- I can't recommend Taphouse 15. No cocktail menu is no fun, the uneducated, uninterested service is a big turn off, and the food wasn't anything special. I don't see myself returning for a third visit. read more

Quick update - french onion soup was very good and filling. The salad I don't think was really worth the cost unless you're willing to pay a little extra to add meat. Service was still just ok. read more

The ambiance: decent bar with many, many beers. Nice and relaxing atmosphere for those who care about that stuff... The food: They have very good burgers, pizza, tacos, and deserts. Get the "Big Chocolate Cake", you'll thank me later. The beer menu: It is HUGE! Many, many beers to choose from that are changed on a regular basis. You'll never get tired of trying new craft beers. Overall: This place is a very good upscale bar and I would recommend checking it out if you enjoy craft beers and a good burger. read more

I have been here several times with friends for drinks and appetizers, each time I always had a good experience but this past week the experience was really exceptional. We normally take a table near the bar area however they sat us in a quieter area on the opposite side of the restaurant which I preferred. The restaurant is very clean and organized and well managed, plus the decor is modern looking. We shared a margarita pizza and a Bavarian pretzel, my one friend and I shared a bottle of red wine my other friend had a mixed drink and a beer. Our server was really terrific, we had ordered a $40 bottle of wine when she approached the table with our bottle she had another bottle on her serving tray, I assumed it was for another table but she just wanted to show us that there was another bottle of red wine that was similar and popular but was actually less expensive. I rarely see a server trying to undersell you, and while we still stuck with the $40 bottle of wine, I was impressed by this gesture as in not trying to rip us off. Our server was also very friendly and attentive. I absolutely look forward to going back to this restaurant. read more

It's got a nice vibe and atmosphere. No-Back bar stools that seem to work? Stopped by on the way up into the Hudson Valley on a Friday evening. It wasn't necessarily busy so I can't speak to the night life. The bartenders were good and rotated throughout all the bar patrons. So I had 3 bartenders to talk to before I was done. Expect to spend some money. Their NY Strip dish is $39. Their Watermelon Margarita was $14. Craft beer list including bottles and cans for sale. Another good thing is,for the craft beer they have on tap, you have the option of a 4oz pour. I'll be back read more

When I say I love this place...I MEAN IT!! My boyfriend and I keep our boat down at Lake Hopatcong and every time we grab dinner it's always at the lake - but yesterday everything closed around 10 so we decided to try Taphouse since it's on the way home and they were still seating (they closed around 10:30 and we got there 10 on the dot and they still served us which was lovely - we called to make sure it was fine and they were more than happy to serve us) We sat down ordered apps and drinks (literally took 5 min for apps to come out) and got our meal and we were out of there by 10:45. The service was incredible- everyone was very welcoming with upbeat energy. AND!!! THEY HAVE VEGAN OPTIONS! The portions are pretty huge btw! Plenty of space to park Oooo!!! Also, you can purchase a 50$ coupon towards your meal for 25$ from yelp! Which is pretty neat!! Can't wait to come back again :) thanks again for the great service Taphouse!!! read more

Service was great, place was clean and lively. But the food was tasteless and just bad. We got the mozzarella sticks for an appetizer which were pretty good. We also got a Margherita pizza and it was the worst pizza I have ever had. It was floppy and soggy, the mozzarella tasted funky and the marinara sauce was loaded with garlic. We also had a burger that was beyond tasteless. We barely got through half of the meal. We of course took most of it home as we do not like to waste food but this was horrible. We left with a really bad taste in our mouths. We travel frequently on 15 and have been passing by this place for years, so this was very disappointing when we finally gave it a try. Even though this place attracts large crowds, I do not recommend it for dining. It probably is best to just come for a drink as their beer menu is extensive. I will not be personally coming back. read more

Inviting warm atmosphere awaits you at this gastropub. Bar chairs were VERY comfortable & the menu has lots of great choices - sandwiches, taco's wings, thin-crust pizza, etc. We tried the bang bang wings & a thin-crust margarita pizza along w/drinks. The pizza was really good - fresh mozzarella on it & it came the way I asked for it - crispy! Monday HH the pizza is 1/2 off - what a bargain! Pizza's were flying through there along with other tasty sandwiches that I saw people getting. The wings were good but they were missing the zing that we were expecting - I'd order them buffalo style next time. They could use some help at the bar - the poor guy had a great personality but was really busy servicing the bar & making drinks for the tables! Great sports bar vibe - I'll definitely be back for some football & pizza! OH - great pour of the wine too! read more

Love this local spot. Their wood fired pizza is so good and we highly recommend the spicy meatball and margharita pizzas. Both are great! The Hot Honey smoked wings are also a show stopper and their Mac and cheese, say no more. Today we were seated right away. However, weekends can get busy so call before to make a reservation and check in asap when you arrive because we have had to wait up to 20 minutes even with our reservation. Service was great here and didn't disappoint. Already on our third visit and would keep returning. read more

Beer list is 10x bigger than the menu, not saying it's a good or bad thing, just mentioning it because it is a limited menu. Place is clean and nice, wait staff is fine. Would I go back, yes. This was actually my second visit read more

Disappointing. my pulled chicken taco was unseasoned plain boiled over cooked chicken with pico de gallo from a jar - more like just cubed tomatoes - on top in a tortilla. it was laughable. will never return. read more

I came in 2 hours prior to close, party of 2. I was eyerolled upon walking in, then my waitress asked for drinks, then disappeared for 20 minutes. No appetizer request, not even water. She then walked by at least 3 times and most of her tables had gotten up already. Not even water. Never again. read more

This place is really nice! The craft beer selection is bar none. They have so many to choose from. The food and prices aren't bad either. Definitely will be going back! read more

Just meh. We came for a late lunch on a cold, rainy saturday. It was moderately crowded inside. We waited for the hostess to get off of the phone before she welcomed us with an attitude and led us to our table. Bad impression. The interior is quite nice. It's a newer restaurant, so I would expect it to be very modern and clean which was very pleasing. We sat in a booth and were then greeted by Jeff, our server. Pretty normal guy. They have great options on the menu, and I wanted to try so much! We settled on sliders, onion rings, and tacos. I wanted chicken tacos but they had none on the menu, so I asked Jeff to substitute it, and kindly did he could try to make it work. (Ok?) I also substituted my side of chips with a side salad. No problem, no charge. Our food came in about 20 min. I'd admit that they have very good portion sizes- not too big not too small. However, the flavors were bland, the tacos were dry, burgers could have been made better at home. (The onion rings though- NAILED IT). Our bill came to $35. Needless to say, we wouldn't come back. Didn't hate it, but definitely didn't love it. read more

My friends and I just left TapHouse and had to rave about the service! Our server Antonio was phenomenal. I had a question about our menu and their manager Eleana helped out, she was the absolute sweetest. Food was great as well! Amazing team read more

Best beer bar in Northern NJ if not the entire state. Amazing selection. Food is very good too.

Friday night, this place was packed and very lively plus its a very large space. They had a great crowd of people, lots of TV's for all sports fans. You can sit by the bar or eat in their dining room area. Driving down route 15 you can't miss this place plus its really easy to get in and get out. When you first walk in you see their brick oven. On the Left side there were tables full of people and on the right side there is a full bar with booth seating next to the bar and further back there is more seating. They have a great beer selection. The staff is very friendly and professional. I have been here before and they have do have a pretty decent menu. This time I ordered their cheeseburger and it was delicious. Both times that I have been here its been a good time. Definitely a place I will go back to. read more

This has quickly become our go-to place when no one wants to cook or we just need a night out. When there's a wait we just head over to the bar for a drink and to watch whatever game(s) are on. We've never had more than a 30 minute wait for a table. Great selection of beer that is updated frequently and 'tap takeovers' that highlight a featured brewery, lots of interesting cocktails, and a solid, diverse menu. Wood-fired pizza, (my faves are the Meatball pie and the White Pie - I'm a traditionalist, what can I say?), the house Smoked Wings, Buffalo and Honey BBQ, Pretzel & Beer Cheese, Fish Tacos, Carnita Tacos, The Terminator burger, and Cubanito sandwich, all get a thumbs up from me and the family. I wasn't a big fan of their Chicken and Waffles but your mileage may vary. Lots of choices for vegetarians or anyone who prefers gluten free (can't speak about either, sorry). Service is always good. Staff is friendly and attentive. It can get crowded but it never seems to be too loud. Great to have a restaurant like this in Jefferson. read more

Food was great with the exception of a few dishes being a bit too salty. Some of the pasta wasn't as tender as it could be, but all in all we had a good experience. I wish we had a wider variety of dishes , but hopefully there will be more to choose from the next time. Will visit again!!! read more

I just ordered some take out and I'd be impressed if they could actually mess it up worse. The 20 minutes they said on the phone was actually 50. The server said it will be out in 2 minutes then forgot I existed for 20 minutes till I got mad. The food was cold before I even walked back to my car. The med well burger was cooked rare, the medium burger was actually dripping blood, literally not figuratively dripping blood and the smoked wings taste burnt. Honestly, this place is horrible to the point where I wonder how they stay in business. read more

I really had to debate giving this place 3 and 4 stars. I think its a 4 star place and i just had a bad food experience once. I like there bar and the inside area is pretty nice. I have tried a few things here and it is generally good. The staff i have interacted with has always been friendly. I generally love the atmosphere of the bar area. They have a a pretty decent selection of beers on tap. I have never found myself wanting. I think they do a good job of keeping a fair mix in there too. I think there would be something for everyone on their beer list assuming you drink beer. The bad experience food wise was the tacos i ordered. They were the ones with the olives in them. I thought the dish may have been bad. I cant say here what i thought it tasted like because i feel like i would get in trouble. But it was just shocking. I attributed it to maybe olives just dont go well with tacos? But if other people have liked it maybe i just had a bad batch of tacos. read more

Pretty decent food. The server, Max, was super chill and attentive (we ate around 1 PM on Sunday so it wasn't packed). The pub burger was pretty good. The roasted chicken was dry but the cauliflower mash was tasty. I would recommend you try this place as there are a lot of choices and the atmosphere is fun. read more

Have been here twice already and quite impressed, it's a bar/restaurant which also serves brick oven pizza. They have an extensive beer and wine selection and for pub food they certainly hit the spot, pizza was very good though if they sliced the sopressata thinner it would have been even better , will go back again , prices reasonable and if you've visited the tap house in Wayne just keep in mind it's not the same owners I don't think and a much different menu read more

Service here is pretty good, seated quickly. Drink menu and service at bar- Stellar. Food service also stellar. The staff truly deserves better than this place. We ordered 4 appetizers which ranged from mediocre to dog food (there is no filet mignon in there meatballs) The entrees were.. bland. All of the items are clearly cooked by amateurs or unsupervised. Very little flavor, very little anything. Every single portion of the meal was missing the mark. Typical fare portions, so if you aren't giving value in servings, you HAVE to do better than C- Bar people were great so I will come back. But the kitchen needs real help. read more

Still the beer bar GOAT. Menu is different from years past, a bit simpler, but that's fine. All in all a great experience as always.

While the food flavor was good, I wanted to like this place but found so many things wrong with this place. Pros: friendly staff, hard working staff Cons: While we acknowledged upon arrival at the bar, we had to prompt the bar tender every time wanted water and drinks. My order came out wrong. I ordered a steak salad- no onions. The steak comes out WITH onions. The steak was then cold upon correction of the meal. The person I was with ordered a chicken sandwich, the French fries were cold. What really got me was one of the bar tenders had longer hair, he kept running his hands/fingers through his hair and touching things without disinfecting or washing up. I purposefully did not order an old fashion where he touched the large ice cubes bare handed after constantly touching his hair. The flavor of the food was good and I really wanted to go back but the service is horrible. read more
