• Beer garden • Berwyn
Booked 1 time today
Lavergne’s Tavern opened in June, 2016 at the corner of Windsor and East Avenues in the old Garv’s Inn location, a staple in Berwyn since the ’60s. The tin ceiling and hardwood floors are restored, and the storied Garv’s Inn bar is rebuilt from scratch using reclaimed black walnut. A combination of high-top bar seating and lower tables help keep the atmosphere friendly to both families and those looking to join a date or friends for a night out.Led by Executive Chef, Mark Downing, the menu is accessible but elevated. Items are priced from $6-$9 for shareable appetizers to entrées at around $14-$16. The Italian Beef Egg Roll, filled with Italian beef, giardiniera, spicy queso, Monterey jack cheese, and au jus dipping sauce is, in one customer’s words, “life changing.”

    This is the best restaurant I have ever eaten at in my 33 years of life. Best beer I have ever had in my life, the best pretzel I have ever had in my life, and the best food I have ever had in my life. Too full for desert, but if I had tried it, it'd be the best desert in which the likes we have never tasted before. Renee is the best server known to man and women. Any other server could never compare. Quite frankly, she was the best server this country has to offer. We love you Renee.

    Everyone on staff was friendly. Table service quick. Chill vibe. We came for curling and our party of 7 ate lunch after. Fries and pretzel were a hit. Curling was fun! Only complaint is that I booked our party because if the amazing snacks and hot chocolate we saw on Instagram and the chalet wasn’t open so we didn’t get to experience all the treats we hoped to. I undertand the reason was it was too cold but I’d curling is open then you should have heaters adequate for the staff to serve there. We would come back. Curling prices were reasonable if you break it down per person $20 each per person for a party of four on a lane. Appreciate the venue for having such a fun activity that will be sure to create a fire memory for our family. Thanks Kaiser Tiger.

    Food was fresh and tasty with attention to gourmet flair. The bread and pimento cheese spread was very good with the rye being a stand out. The artichokes with a Caesar dressing and pecorino wants better than anticipated. Service was excellent and very attentive. The butcher cut NY strip was outstanding and cooked to perfection.

    The food was delicious, and I appreciated the opportunity to choose a keto friendly dish. The keto bowl is quite tasty, and very unique! It’s nice that there are a variety of proteins available for this dish. I do wish there were more keto friendly options, but having this one is definitely a plus. Our server, Robert, was, as always, very attentive and quite friendly. Unfortunately, because of the rain, we had to dine indoors, which can be very loud. I love the patio area, though. Overall, I would label this a neighborhood gem!
