Female bar tender (Maddie) greeted me then immediately walks away only to come back to her phone. She did this about 3x ignoring me each time...apparently her text messages were more important than ensuring a customer has been served. I mean that's what a bartender does right?...correct me if I'm wrong. After roughly 15 mins of sitting at a mostly empty bar another male bartender finally acknowledged me and promptly took my order. He displayed more professionalism than the other bar tender (Maddie). It was very obvious that each bar tender had their own section of the bar but it's sad when someone else has to pickup another employee's slack due to lack of attentiveness. The time was 10pm and the place literally did not close for another 2hrs. The least (Maddie) could have done was take my order then move to the next customer. It's not that hard to just do your job...or at least I did think it was. Definitely need to improve on the customer service aspect of this individual and bar. Didn't really mean to make it about this person but in the service industry it's your job to extend customer service and satisfaction which your compensation is dependent upon. Customers do not require much at a bar...all they want to do is to be acknowledged and/or served. This was not the vibe tonight...apparently I should just be subjected to poor service and just STFU!!!....I guess you know when I'll be back...NEVER! read more

Best Bar on Main Street! The food is amazing. I highly recommend the Chicago Dog and the wings and fried pickle are a must. Great beer selection and the bartenders know what they are doing. Perfect place to watch a game or hang and play some pool. read more

Tavern on main is our go-to spot! The $5 tribute burgers are without question the best pub burgers in the South Bay. Best of all they serve NEFT Vodka, which is the best I've ever tasted. read more

Excellent bar. Lots of TV, friendly waitstaff. If you're a Philly Fan in the South Bay, this is your spot. read more

Been here a few times before thru the years. The wife and I still love barfood type places and this is truly a sports bar first with its TVs and many beer selections. Food is standard fare for what you expect at a similar place, we enjoy the happy hour as the servers are quick to get your orders in. Recommended for any game that might be on as they'll get a tv tuned if they have the service. Appreciate the a local place treating everyone well as it seems Segundo keeps getting more and more popular. read more

Love the food especially the buffalo chicken wrap . The service was good and of the ambiance was chilled. I will definitely go again

Good music, free pool and darts, great staff, and the best darn pretzels this side of the Arkansas!

Awesome little spot, not far from LAX. Locals bar, with friendly staff, big cold beers, and a menu that looked awesome. I wasn't starving so I ordered the nachos, which were... nachos... not bad, not great... no fault of the establishment! I will definitely return. read more

Five stars all day long. I'm in town for business and decided to give the tavern a go. Yes I could have gone next door to the rock and brews. But, I'm not into flash. I like a good hometown tavern that appreciates their customers. Ordered the wings and for $10 a pound? You had me at hello!! Great food, fun place with all locals. Do yourself the favor and try a place that knows the value of your business!!! I'll be back!! read more

I was working nights near by and thought I would give this place a try. Both myself and a co worker has the Philly cheesesteak sandwich. It was flavorful and the sandwich was loaded with perfectly cooked steak that had a perfect texture. I would definitely eat there again. read more

Went for dinner last night, they were super busy, but the service was impeccable and they poured me a mega pint of wine while we waited for our food. Great vibe all around. I had the Chicken Kale salad and the pretzel. The salad was delicious and I finished the whole pretzel myself..so good. Be patient with the staff folks, they are there for us, and doing their very best! read more

Tavern On Main - Happy hour Martin's - American Near Me - El Segundo, California

Excellent place to watch the World Series! Or any sort of game since they have about 100 TVs at every possible angle, which is awesome! Great happy hour deals (Mon-Fri 5-7pm) $5 for big mugs of Coors light, Bud, or Bud Light and some appetizers as well. Regular non-happy hour menu prices for food and beer aren't bad either. Super nice and friendly staff, even when the place is packed, they are still attentive and so friendly! Bathroom lines can get a bit long, just FYI. Good vibe - sports bar + local hang out joint + kinda dive bar, perfect place to drink, eat bar food and watch whatever sports you want. They have a few parking spots in the back (enter through the alleyway) or snag a street spot nearby. Thanks for being so awesome! read more

Tavern On Main - HH - $5 beer steins, nachos and boneless chicken wings - American Near Me - El Segundo, California

We had a really cool experience at this little sports bar. We arrived on a Wednesday around 6:45pm for an event. They had a whiskey and tequila tasting set up for us. They had Regular, Lime, Grapefruit, and Pineapple Jalapeño Tequila. I tried the Grapefruit. It was good, but it was so strong when it hit my chest going down that I'm sure my boobs grew a couple inches! I think my pupils dilated and everything! They also had Bourbon, Apple, and Peach whiskey. All of them sounded delicious, but I was still recovering from the Tequila tasting that I didn't dare try the whiskey, though there was a smoking hottie serving it! Why couldn't he be serving food?? I would have stood there all night! Lol! Anyway, this place appears to be a neighborhood hangout that caters to people of all ages. Besides being a bar, they also have a pretty extensive food menu and they are open early enough for breakfast, which was impressive! They have a full kitchen that serves everything from breakfast burritos and tacos to eggs Benedict and corned beef hash and eggs. If you come later on in the day, they have appetizers like Irish nachos and a slew of sliders like the Philly cheesesteak, mini brat, and pulled pork. Lunch and dinner options are extensive! For burgers, you can choose between an angus beef, grilled chicken breast, turkey, or a veggie patty. They serve Nathan's hot dogs, hot or cold sandwiches, wraps, salads, soups, and even a famous housemade chili, pretzels, and fried green beans. The vibe was cozy and comfortable. There's an outside patio with a few tables. The owner was super nice and inviting; even thanked us for coming. We really liked that the music was low enough for us to hear each other, as well! They have big screen TV's everywhere, and comfortable seating. You could easily sit here all day if you wanted to. I definitely plan to visit again! read more

Terrible bar terrible service. Demands tips and will retaliate if you do not abide. Do not go here it is not worth it go to

DO NOT COME HERE!!!! My friend didn't tip because all they did was pour a beer and the manager came over and IDed all of us. This place sucks and does not take into account the clientele that comes in which consists of students who don't have much money. Very rude read more

We live in El Segundo and I'm 30 years past my prime drinking age but I still enjoy a good drink and some pub food every once in a while. Well, if you're young or old, the Tavern is a great place for either one or both. Depending on the night of the week, you may have to wait for a while to get a good seat. This almost happened to us on this particular Friday night. It's early in this new year but it has already presented a few challenges for me. So instead of staying in, we decide to go out for a drink and some grub. We wondered in around 6:45pm and every seat at their large wrap around bar was taken. A couple of the bartenders noticed we were looking for seats and one walked the entire bar to see if any were available. They were all taken. Another employee noticed us pacing about and offered a couple of seats at a table away from the bar. I was disappointed as I prefer to sit at the bar but we were there and wanted to eat. So, just as we were going to sit, one of bartenders called to us, "we have two seats for you". Note, we do go in a few times during the year but we're not regulars. I was extremely pleased that they took the extra effort to find us those seats. They did so by asking a couple of regulars to move around and make room for us. Very nice. By the time we got our seats, it was 6:55 and happy hour ends at 7. Another employee asked if we wanted anything from the HH menu and we said yes. She grabbed a bartender and we were able to get some happy hour items ordered right away - thank you. If you like tater tots, order them here. We also ordered the boneless chicken wings and I'd pass on these - these were more like chicken tenders and just okay. We also ordered the pork sliders and there were tasty and spicy! They have some interesting choices for food so I think you'll find something to like. We got our drink orders in and both were made to our liking. They have a full bar and make a good drink. We also picked up one of their trivia boxes and played that for a while. It was exactly what I needed...a good drink, some pub grub, some small talk with the staff and a little distraction with the trivia. Walking back home I felt much better than when I left. So, if you're in the area, looking for a good drink, some good pub food or just some conversation, give the Tavern a shot. Enjoy! read more

Nice lunch on a Saturday afternoon with my 12 year old. He enjoyed the chicken tenders and my tuna salad was really good! Reasonable prices! Service was excellent. read more

Best bar to watch the Eagles games and enjoy great food! Looking forward to September!

Worst service on the planet. Rude, like legitimately rude and bizarre bartenders. Fried pickles suck. I f***** hate this place I have no idea why I came back. Literally the prerequisite to work here is to be completely not cut out for the service industry. Don't waste your time! read more

This place has the worst service ever ! We got kicked out by the so calls manager with the braids We we're not loud or anything. I know the service here has always been bad. Everyone says it service sooo bad. We did nothing wrong. ! She said she was a acting manager chewing on her gum. We will never go back. Like many people. Standard station is the best service. read more

Great local bar with an Irish/ East Coast vibe. Beer is always cold and wine is always fresh. Love the nachos, Buffalo cauliflower, Buffalo chicken sliders and great vegetarian and vegan options!

Came here for Super Bowl and had a great time as well. Good crowd. read more

Great service, decent French dip and rings. Parking sucks. I never know for sure if I won't get ticketed or towed. It's not ckear if it's ok to park across the street in the lot. Street parking is scarce even on weeknights. No comment on the spirits since I opted out. Next time though... read more

Nice spot, good service and top UFC fight on tap. Can't get no better!! I'm glad I found it online and will be back again!! The place also had a relaxed feel and was not crowded without the reek of smoke! Definitely recommend the place!! read more

I've been coming to this place for years now, and I can't recommend it enough. The staff is super friendly. Tiffany is such an amazing bartender...so kind and engaging with everyone. They're all great, but had to give her a special shout out. The food is really good...burgers, cauliflower bites, etc. You can't go wrong with whatever you choose. The happy hour prices are awesome as well. I refer all of my friends to this place, and I affectionately refer to it as "Cheers"...where everybody knows your name. Thanks Tavern staff for making my experience warm and welcoming every time I walk in there. read more

Great atmosphere here. Local feel, karaoke night, good happy hour specials and friendly atmosphere

There are lots of pet-friendly pubs & restaurants in the LA area. This is not necessarily one of them. The online listing says "pets allowed", but only on the patio; which is fine, except if you have to use the restroom. Your pet needs to stay outside, unattended. And the server I asked was quite unfriendly about that fact: "What? Your dog can't stay outside?" No, ma'am, she cannot; not alone, surrounded by strangers. read more

I went here for a group party and the service was outstanding. Thin crowd for a Saturday afternoon, I thought ; mostly local. The chicken tenders and wings were good, as was the orange hefavizen. It's pretty nice and welcoming inside. I had a Philly cheese steak sandwich which was a 6 out of 10 + the worst coleslaw I've ever had, and I don't know if it was because they forgot something or what. Their margaritas are big and a 4--6 out of 10. I suggest you stick with the beer. Overall, a pleasant place. The band started to set up at 7 or 8 asnd wee hadd to move to a new spot. We did not stay for the music, but the musicians were nice and I'm sure they pleased the crowd. read more
