The bartenders where friendly and very understanding when we went in to tell them 2 days in a row. Looked like a clean, relaxed place to have a beer. Music wasn't blaring the nighst we went in which is a plus in my book. Would stop in for a drink when I have the time soon. They had drink specials posted for every day which is a good thing. I have heard many folks say they have some of the best bloody mary's around and are a special on Sundays. Thanks again Snookers!

I went to Symerton Tap for Fish Fry Friday and ordered the grilled cod... and I'm honestly still…read moreprocessing the experience. You know how people say "it's just fish"? Yeah. No. Not this fish. This grilled cod was so perfectly cooked it should probably have its own fan club. Flaky, tender, seasoned just right not dry, not greasy, not pretending to be something it's not. Just confidently amazing. I took one bite and immediately questioned every other piece of grilled cod I've ever eaten in my life. Life-changing? Possibly. Life-altering? Emotionally, yes. It's the kind of meal that makes you stare at your plate for a second and think, "Where have you been all my life?" If you haven't tried the grilled cod at Symerton Tap on Fish Fry Friday, I'm not saying you're doing Fridays wrong... but I am strongly suggesting you fix that immediately. 10/10. Would let this fish ruin all other fish for me again.

They also hold some events and I saw a table that said they had a Bloody Mary bar, but it wasn't going on the day we went. We ordered a meatball sub, bone-in wings, boneless wings, and fries/onion rings to try. We told the server to bring the food out as it was ready. We waited a long while for our first item to come out and it was the bone-in wings surprisingly, then the boneless wings, and finally the meatball sub. The wings were great and I enjoyed the onion rings as well! The meatball sub was cold and did not taste the best. If I come again, I would just come for the wings and a few drinks. Our server was very friendly and attentive. The bartender and guests at the bar were laughing and having a good time. If you're from out of town, it's also worth mentioning the good that the owner does... outside of having this restaurant. He holds food pantries for the locals no questions asked. When we were going through government shutdown last year, he also partnered with Jewel Osco to give away Turkey dinner kits so family's could have a Thanksgiving. If all else, that's one heck of a reason to give your business here.

It's right along the river with a nice view and it's in the Heart of the City where you can see it all. This place is truly in the shape of a garage. This place was dog friendly too. Great selection of drinks and they even have non-alcoholic drinks as well. Prices on all the drinks were fair too. The bar features darts, a jukebox and a few other games. I will say the one drawback about this bar can be on this busy nights is the lines for the restroom. They are single star restrooms and the line for the men's restroom can back up we might just take a chances going to the women's restroom instead. Just because there is no line for the women's restroom on my visit but the line to get to the men's restroom was over a 10 minute wait.
