India our server was absolutely incredible. She was so attentive, brought everything out in a timely manner, and even anticipated the kitchen not putting mayonnaise on a sandwich so brought some out. I hope they let her know how much of an asset she is to the tavern.

This was not a good experience at all. This was my first time going to this restaurant. The service was horrible . The waitress was no where to be found most of the time. One of our meals came out totally wrong . The food was just basic . I had a salad that was basically just lettuce with a couple pieces of chicken. It was $260 for 3 salads a burger , 2 chicken fingers ( that were burnt) and a couple of apps. We should if went to the capital grill for another $100 and at least got a nice dinner ! We will not be back to this restaurant.

The service was poor, super slow and not as attentive, never asked if we needed anything further or refill. Took too long to get check back to us and we had restless kids at that point. Would not go back for any meal as this is not the first time we received poor service. Food was not that great either for the price.

We had this waiters for second time , and two times she had this attitude and 2 different days she screwed up our orders , the manager brought out our meal , and i said this is not what I had ordered, he was very kind and nice asked me what I had ordered and took care of it tight away. I did give this waiters second chance but she did again plus her sassy attitude again , next time I will definitely not ok her to be my waiters again

Its different than it used to be. We usually come here a lot but it just wasn’t as good. We always get the Buffalo cauliflower but this one was just drenched in sauce and not lightly buttered like usual. And they used to have this amazing cobb salad that is no longer on the menu. Jut kind of disappointing

Those Tavern Burgers! They are phenomenal. Especially for someone like me, with Celiac disease. Being able to order a burger on a gluten free bun with chips is such a treat. Their burgers are big and juicy, I think they are the best around! Yes, I like other things on the menu but this particular night we came out just for the burgers at Tavern in the Square!

There are many other brunch spots in RI with better options, so we will likely not go back. The menu was somewhat deceiving on a couple of items like the French toast “bites” that were actually big sticks & “stuffed croissant” which was actually just an egg sandwich on a croissant. We were also disappointed to find that they didn’t incorporate their delicious tater tots in any brunch entree - total bummer. The Bloody Mary was decent, though! Tavern was fine for a quick, underwhelming breakfast.

With a really large bar and multiple screens, this restaurant is probably best suited for night out drinking. It was extremely loud, even in our front corner booth, so if your at all hearing impaired avoid the place. The menu is limited and I had to pay a $1 to get a roll with my salad because they don't have bread, except hamburger rolls and gluten free rolls. I ordered a lemonade that came with fresh blueberries and strawberries, but the lemonade itself was definitely from a container, not fresh.

Too noisy!! My partner and I had dinner with my son and his wife. We could barely carry on a conversation without screaming at each other to be heard! I don’t know why Tavern in the Square feels as if loud music is conducive to an enjoyable dining experience! Sadly, I enjoy everything else about the restaurant. But I will definitely think twice about trying to enjoy dinner there again.

My poached eggs were inedible. They were cold, rubbery and watery. I asked for salt and it was brought over after 10 minutes so my eggs were even colder. I was not asked what kind of bread I wanted and I was served 3 1/2 pieces of multigrain which I especially do not like. NOTE I said 3 1/2 pieces which meant 1/2 piece was missing. The waitress was nice though but not the food. I will not be back.
