The stylish, upscale gastropub slips into the location once home to the ill-fated English Tap & Beer Garden, a place that staggered from the very beginning and never did find its culinary feet.
The new Tap has a sleek industrial-esque look reminiscent of Yard House, another beer-centric eatery with a Boca branch. Think rustic reclaimed wood walls, towering ceilings, a giant bar beneath multiple TVs and steel superstructure, tall aluminum “Navy” chairs at tall bar tables and a blackboard scrawled with a dizzying array of craft beers, plus a spacious outdoor patio with indoor-outdoor bar.
The menu is pretty extensive, too. It’s packed with haute bar bites from spicy crab and tuna rolls and beer-braised mussels with chorizo to fish ‘n’ chips and truffled steak sandwich. There’s also a roster of burgers, composed salads, sides and desserts. Weekend brunch is offered, as are a variety of mixological cocktails and a handful of wines.
