My family and I tried this restaurant for the first time today, all the food was tremendous and some of the best pizza in the area. My son accidentally knocked a glass off the table and Cam went out of his way to be kind to him and make him feel better. We will definitely be back soon!

We don't go here often as we should ( family life). It's a great place to kick back, have a few drinks, and eat some delicious food. Plus side I saw many people bring their families as their babies. We all need a break in life, and beacontap is a family and friendly place to un wind. Stephanie was attendingus, and she was wonderful. She checked on us and made sure we're taken care of

Beacon Tap was amazing to work with for our Multicultural Night at Forest Elementary! They were super helpful and made the whole process easy. Their wings were a huge hit — perfectly cooked, super flavorful, and definitely a crowd favorite. Beacon Tap is also a go-to spot for a lot of our staff — we love their food! Big thanks to them for supporting our event and bringing the deliciousness. Highly recommend!

Fun spot for dinner and drinks. Close to our airport hotel. Lots of high-level cornhole! We sat in the covered outside taproom and had a great time, as did all the groups sitting around us!

Food was delicious, server (Jen I think) was super kind. Nobody rushes you which was especially nice. Outdoor patio is beautiful! With drinks included with our meal, the total bill was 54. We both ordered two handed sandwiches , however they do have daily food and drink specials.

4/2024 5* We went here for an after work event. So we had a room in the back just for us. The food they had was tremendous. Everyone enjoyed it. The atmosphere was nice in our own room. I am not much for bars, so I can't speak for inside the restaurant. Too loud in there for me. But we did all enjoy ourselves.

When I ordered the Texas rodeo sandwich I was not expecting the STELLAR meal I got. The potions are large. The brisket melted in my mouth. The pork soooo tender. The sausage as just enough kick. Just enough veg to cut through the richness of the meats. Servers are helpful , friendly, and attentive . Bingo Mondays is a blast

I was called the next day that I didn't win the pot but I did win two tickets to tonight's drawing that I'm about to head on the highway to be there to buy more tickets for the drawing.
