This is hands down, our favorite restaurant/bar. Consistently great, has an old style pub feel, and is always decorated beautifully and on theme seasonally. We also love the rotation of drinks and foods each month. It gives us a new reason to come back that keeps it fresh and interesting. We know there is a wait to get in at happy hour and dinner time so we check in and walk down to Martony's for a drink and some Golden Tee while we wait to be called. It's 21 and over due to Indiana law and the size of the space. It makes it a special night for just us though and it's also turned into a tradition to bring our older kids for a really fun evening out when they turn 21. I do wish they would bring back the caprese sandwich as a regular item on the menu. It was my favorite as a lunch time option. And I hope they NEVER remove the Dilly Dally Dip because omg it's the best spinach dip we have ever had in our lives. read more

I walked in to get a table outside because the weather was beautiful. The music was a smidge too loud outside but the vibes were great. Our server was great and kept our drinks filled. I'm from the south and know a good shrimp and grits and this was a GOOD shrimp and grits. read more

Went to lunch with a friend yesterday afternoon. It was our first time at Tavern on Main. We sat outside and we got the crispy buffalo cauliflower, the pretzel bites and the loaded tater tots. Everything was absolutely amazing. Tavern on Main takes standard bar food and makes it so much tastier! Out server Kelly was wonderful and we will definitely request her every time we go back. We did walk in so we could get seated outside and the bar is beautiful. I also like that it's 21 and over so kids cannot eat there. It's nice to have places that are strictly for adults! read more

Tavern On Main - Pretzel bites with beer cheese and mustard, loaded tater tots, crispy buffalo cauliflower - Bars Near Me - Crown Point, Indiana

First time going, we got gift card took advantage of the day and took the wife to eat. The ambience was great. The waitress was friendly and courteous, she answered all my questions regarding my fish allergy. I was limited from selecting anything fried because apparently they fry everything in the same oil and that put a damper on my experience. I hope this is helpful to those who have a fish/shell fish allergy like I do as the menu will be limited to you as well. In the future, I hope Tavern on Main will consider a separate fryer for those that have an allergy. read more

My husband and I was trying to go to a different restaurant but it was closed due to a fire. We stopped in here and got some food. We had shared the lobster roll as an appetizer and it was delicious. For our entree, I got the short rib grilled cheese and he got the honey sriracha salmon. The grilled cheese was missing a little seasoning on the meat. It's good for someone who is watching their sodium content. My husband said that the salmon wasn't spicy. Overall, it was good. read more

I've been here a handful of times. I crave the cauliflower. It's roasted to perfection with little sweet peppers. Amazing. I've tried a few menu items. All great. The black bean burger isn't house made. Just a morning star variety. Many better options in the menu. Friendly service too. Great outdoor patio. I've only had beer to drink, haven't tried any cocktails. read more

Very solid dining experience overall! We love that there is a restaurant on the square that is 21+ all day. It makes for a very relaxed atmosphere that's also vibrant and fun. Service was extremely nice and quick! The variety of mules they have is awesome, and I had a regular and a raspberry and would recommend both! For food we had two burgers and the chicken tacos. I wish the chicken was more shredded than diced, but that may just be a personal preference. However I appreciate that there are gluten free options and accommodations for dietary restrictions! The fingerling potatoes were amazing and probably my favorite part of the meal. We will definitely be back! read more

Met friends for lunch on Friday afternoon and the place was hoppin'. Our server Selena was so great and the "wonderland" makes the whole room a buzzy, fun vibe. Having said that tho - our server mentioned weekend nights are packed right now and they're working with timetables. Heads up if you're making plans to visit during peak hours. I love this place for their patio in the summer and the food never disappoints. Good addition to the Region! read more

Came in for my birthday because we were in the area and I had a hankering for a cheeseburger. We were promptly seated and the server came over to greet us within minutes. Wife mentioned it was my birthday, but I let the server know I didn't want any singing or theatrics. Too old for that stuff. The place was pretty packed on Saturday afternoon and there was more than ample Christmas decorations which is always a plus for me. We started with some cheese curds and I ordered their bacon cheeseburger. Really wanted a mushroom and Swiss but this is not something they offer. Don't remember what the wife ordered. The curds were okay. Had better, had worse. Our entrees came out shortly after. Food was hot, but that was the only good thing about my burger. The meat was over seasoned and dry. The candied bacon was too sweet. I couldn't even finish the burger. Wife wasn't thrilled by her food either. Unlikely to return except for drinks maybe. read more

Nice place nice food nice people and great ambience! One of my favorites on the Crown Pt Square!

Good has gone down in quality and so has the drinks. The service and servers fantastic!

The food was very good. The lobster grits were outstanding. The burgers were excellent as well as the short rib grilled cheese. The service was very good and we were able to talk comfortably without too much drowning out music. I highly recommend this contender on the square!!! read more

I've given this place multiple chances, but the service has been consistently slow each time. On one visit, we sat at the bar for 12-15 minutes with no acknowledgment, even though the bartender was chatting with her friends at the end of the bar . We ended up leaving. Another time, the wait was shorter, but drinks still took around 10 minutes to arrive. It was just draft beer and a simple cocktail. On my most recent visit with server Dawn G., the food was good, but drinks were slow again. I ordered two pours of bourbon, and each one took a while to arrive. It was a busy night, so I was willing to be patient. However, when I got my bill, I noticed I was charged for two doubles--even though I never asked for doubles. This felt like an upsell tactic, which was frustrating. I get it bigger bill bigger tip but come on. I've given this place multiple chances, and while the food is good, the slow service and questionable billing practices are disappointing. I hope they address these issues because the potential is there. read more

While visiting the town square today with my mother, some friends, and my 7-month-old baby, we decided to stop in for a bite to eat. A server, maybe in her mid-30s with a slender build, approached our table and immediately started saying we needed to be 21. My mom jokingly said they were assuming she was referring to my friends and me. She just kept repeating, "You need to be 21. Didn't you see the sign?" (we hadn't). After we replied no, she asked again as though our answer would change. She then proceeded to ask in an incredibly sarcastic tone if the baby was 21. I said no in a confused tone, thinking she was messing around and just wasn't funny. She proceeded to tell us we couldn't be in there with a baby, speaking to us as though we were idiots. All of us were incredibly confused and picked up our things to leave. As she stormed back to the kitchen, the table next to us informed us of the Indiana state law prohibiting anyone under the age of 21 from being in a bar/restaurant that doesn't have a clear separation between the bar and restaurant sides. As we are from Illinois, this isn't a law we were familiar with. We understand it isn't the establishment's fault; however, I have never been spoken to in such an impertinent tone. Having worked in the service industry for many years, I was shocked at how poorly the server handled the entire situation. She didn't explain anything, just told us to go with little to no explanation other than having a literal baby with us. She didn't bother to offer us a seat in the outdoor area. I have never left somewhere with such a bad taste in my mouth. I hope the manager or owner sees this post and has a word with her, as that is not how you speak with paying customers or anyone at all. I'd like to add I hardly ever leave reviews and typically, when I do, they are positive. So imagine how upset and uncomfortable this entire situation made me. read more

Best meal around. The Catch & Crunch tacos are perfect. The sauce drizzled on the tacos is so perfectly flavorful. The margaritas are great, and the brussel sprout side rivals the fanciest of restaurants. Sooooo good! read more

We had Tavern on Main in Crown Point provide heavy appetizers and charcuterie for our recent corporate open house, and everything was fantastic! The presentation was beautiful, the food was fresh and flavorful, and our guests had nothing but great things to say. Even though they've just started offering catering, you'd never know it- they handled everything smoothly and professionally. Maybe some labels for the food offering would be a nice touch. Highly recommend if you're looing for something impressive and delicious for your next event. They have a wide variety of food options to choose from that are unique. read more

We stopped by to get a drink and appetizer before dinner. There are quite a few different flavors of mules for $8. I ordered the original mule and it was good! We also ordered the brussel sprouts with maple and bacon. It was okay. The serving size was large but I felt like there was too much maple syrup. The reason for the 4 stars is because of the COVID precautions. One bartender had his mask under his nose. The place is quite small and packed. A customer who was getting take-out came in and out of the restaurant without a mask. It's a good place to go to, but COVID precautions could be better. read more

If you ask me this is the "go to" place for anyone in Crown Point. Lots of great places on the square. Tavern on Main is the best. The servers are friendly, the food is top quality, and the ambiance is great. Limited seating keeps them busy but there is almost always something that opens ip or limited waiting time. Great seafood selections, cauliflower tacos, ahi tuna, lobster roll, and bang bang shrimp are my favorites. Best tator tots anywhere around. Great craft beer selections. read more

It's a nice place. Pretty average for a pub style restaurant. Food is hit or miss. Some dishes are great others fall short. Try to avoid prime times food and service go way, way, way downhill. Prices are a bit above average. Service is a bit hit or miss. It's a small place...they've tried to pack 10lbs of stuff in a 5 lbs bag. The front of the house are tripping over each other. I personally brought some out of town relatives for dinner. I was so embarrassed by the time we left. I won't recommend this place at all. It's the same repetitive thing. The old style pub for the fresh new customer. It's just been done to death. It is 21 and over only, so plan accordingly. read more

We have been there several times and while it's small and loud the food and service are excellent. The various appetizers we've tried have all been excellent. The crispy cauliflower is a big favorite. You can't go wrong with anything we've tried. The only real negative is no reservations but usually the wait hasn't been terrible. read more
