Tabor Tavern

"This cozy, elevated gastropub is a neighborhood favorite for a mid-week dinner, whether it’s a date or a family dinner. Decked out in wood paneling with golden sunshine during the day and intimate mood lighting at night, regulars sit down to giant burgers and sandwiches or comfort food like shepherd’s pie and fish and chips. In true tavern form, a well-stocked bar slings house cocktails or frosty craft beers on draft. Weekend brunch is also on deck, with staples like eggs Benedict, chicken and waffles, and biscuits and gravy. The outdoor tables along Burnside are the way to go for drinks and bites on warm, summer evenings." - Zoe Baillargeon

"This spot has a definite neighborhood feel to it, but it’s famous across the city for its burger, which is served on a brioche bun with a generous helping of bacon jam (the jam can, and probably should, be ordered with any of the sandwiches on their menu). The casual vibe makes it exceptionally kid-friendly—there are plenty of high chairs to be found at weekend brunch."

"Neighbors greet each other warmly upon walking into Tabor neighborhood standby, eventually sitting down to casual comfort food — including a knockout lamb burger. Tabor Tavern’s juicy lamb patty is complemented by feta and arugula; however, the slightly smoky red pepper harissa sets it over the top. Tabor Tavern is open for indoor and outdoor dining, as well as takeout." - Maya MacEvoy

"A gastropub in North Tabor with friendly, neighborhood vibes, Tabor Tavern is back open with its menu of pub eats, cocktails, draught beer, and wine. It’s also still taking takeout orders over the phone." - Alex Frane

"Neighbors greet each other warmly upon walking into this kid-friendly Tabor favorite, eventually sitting down to casual comfort food, including a knockout mac and cheese. By sautéing fusilli pasta, smoked gouda, roasted kale, roasted corn, and chorizo, Tabor Tavern’s mac and cheese creates an ideal blend of crunch, smokiness, and slight sweetness." - Maya MacEvoy
