    James Montgomery indulged me with a selfie
    Catherine P.

    I saw the James Montgomery band last night at the Tap with friends. It was an amazing experience. I loved the warm, cozy feeling of a an Irish bar. We sat at a communal table and everyone around it was very friendly. My drinks were made exactly as I ordered and the waitress knew what "dirty rocks on the side" meant and delivered. And then there was the smash burger. This burger was not your typical bar burger..it was the best smash burger I have ever had. Thin and a little crispy but still juicy. The sauce, condiments and buttery brioche roll with it just gave it a certain something. I opted for a salad on the side but after tasting the house made chips my friend ordered, I regretted trying to be healthy. The chips were crispy without being too greasy or salty. The salad was very fresh and tasty. Another friend ordered the beef stew and declared it delicious. James and the band delivered a fabulous blues performance with his incredible harmonica solos and a few funky songs that had some up on their feet and dancing. If you are looking for great food,drink, and live music, you owe it to yourself to check out The Tap Cumberland.

    Love the new place! Live music tonight! Great drinks, great service! The menu is small but everything has been great! The spiced bag is super creative and delicious!!! You won't be disappointed! The grilled cheese (I got plain!) was yum either way crispy fries! Looking forward to making my way through the menu! Welcome to the neighborhood!

    Love this place! Great owner & staff, amazing drinks, cold beers and tasty food. Checks all the boxes. It can be very loud sometimes, especially if there's a band!

    Very friendly staff and owner. We come every week or two, for drinks, a regular sized meal, (not an over stuffed plate with 4 pounds of food that will wind up in the trash, for which you get the pleasure of a $20 check), and the atmosphere. Ambience is just right, and the patrons are pleasant and easy to engage. It became one of our new regular haunts after the very first visit. We are actually heading there in 20 minutes. Have my dark and stormy ready!!!

    A perfect pint

    It's a quaint pub that is comfortable and friendly. There's even a few items on the menu for the kids. Don't be afraid to bring the kids.

    Overpriced and charge extra for a drink in a tall glass with the same amount of alcohol as if you got in a short glass

    Easy going Irish pub in Wayland Square. McBride's has been a staple in this area for many years. I…read morewas most recently here with a friend of mine in the late afternoon, and we had the place nearly all to ourselves. The waitstaff here is always friendly and our drink orders were taken pretty quickly, The food here is just so-so. It's fine, but nothing really special. We ordered the Corned Beef sliders, which came as an order of three for $14.40. The sliders are literally just corned beef and mustard. No cheese and nothing else extra on them. We also got the American nachos, which again, are fine, but nothing special, and to add chicken or chili is a $6 upcharge. Atmosphere is good - what you would expect of an Irish pub, and they do have nice seating around the bar. I think this is a good spot to visit if you are in the area, but not worth a long drive.

    Maybe I got the wrong things. Came here for the lord of the wings challenge and honestly the wings…read morewere okay. The food overall was okay nothing really to rave about from the wings to the chili to the wedges. Food came out kind of like warm? Was surprised by it. Loved how the had the game going with the patriots winning and there was another area where people could watch too. The waitress was so so kind and friendly! If I had a restaurant I would hire her in a heartbeat. Standard Irish pub decor and layout. I would give it a second shot if I was around.

    I have to admit I was disappointed in my visit to this establishment. I had heard good things about…read moreit & the parking lot was always full, so I was optimistic. Decor wise, there's not much to write home about. Outdated with lots of wood but, hey, it's a pub. Which is why I didn't expect fancy restaurant prices. The evening started out fine. Our friendly young server brought us a basket of warm Irish soda bread with real Irish butter, which was delicious. Our water was served in cute logo glasses. Strangely enough, the beverage menu listed wine prices but not cocktail prices. And we wanted Margaritas, which weren't listed. When we asked our server, she immediately said they didn't offer them. Since they have a full bar, we asked why. I honestly don't think she knew what a Margarita was. She said she'd ask the bartender & came back to tell us they could make them. We asked the price. Again, she had to find out... $12. We agreed, but when she returned with two drinks in Old Fashioned glasses, I refused mine. The drink was literally 4 sips! My dining companion kept hers & said it was nicely made but not worth the price. I ordered a ginger ale instead ($3). We both ordered fish & chips ($21) and, again, were disappointed with what we received for the price. The chips appeared to be hand cut & were tasty, but the small, thin fish fillets were breaded in what I believe was cornmeal. Edible but certainly not what you'd expect from an Irish pub. Where's the beer batter? Neither of us liked the tiny cup of coleslaw. Afterwards, we asked for a dessert menu. Again, no prices. There were three desserts & several coffee drinks listed. We opted for Irish coffees ($13) and were pleased with the coffee, whiskey, brown sugar and fresh whipped cream concoctions. With tax & tip, the total bill came to $105.76, way too much for this kind of place. And, they ended up charging us $13 for that mini-Margarita. Whatever. We won't be back.

    An unassuming spot on the side of the road, I discovered some of the best wings of RI I've had all…read moremonth. The RI Food Fights event Lord of the Wings brought me here. This spot happens to be on my way home from the office and I'm glad I stopped in. Overall the place is small, with both table dining and bar seating. My friend and I chose to sit at the bar. Meaghan was our bartender. Friendly and informative, she really knew the menu. I got garlic teriyaki wings, my friend got a double order of plain and we shared a pepperoni, half black olive pizza. The wings were huge and juicy. The sauce was so good, and they did a great job of coating the wings in a way that they were well covered but the sauce wasn't dripping off. The pizza was better than average. I had heard it described as bar pie in the local pizza Facebook group but that isn't accurate. It's got the thickness of a Greek style pizza but not baked in a pan. The pizza sauce has a nice tang to it that I prefer. It very easy to eat. Initially I thought I would be taking some pizza home for lunch the next day but before I knew it, I had polished off the wings and 6/8 of the pizza. My only criticism of the pie is I'm a stickler for a proper half and half split and the olives were on a majority of the pie instead of only half. I finished with a Snicker inspired drink created by our bartender. It's butterscotch forward in flavor and is decidedly a dessert drink. It was a lovely sweet treat to finish the meal. What I love most about the Food Fight events is having the opportunity to discover small spots like this one. Having a place to hide away from traffic on the way home from work is clutch, so I will be back sooner rather than later. I'm looking forward to the next time I stop by!

These Tator tots that were on special with pulled pork were so good. But the biggest surprise was the cauliflower. Hands down THEE BEST fried cauliflower I've ever had in my life. Not soft and mushy but crispy great flavor and the sweet chili sauce was not over powering. The bartender was super friendly and gave us some recs as well. I would drive the hour again to this spot.
