We had a great time. Our reservation was for 8:15 and they promptly sat us. Everyone was really friendly and helpful. The music was great and we loved the live DJ. The music was a little loud, but not crazy. The food and drinks were ok. A little pricey for the taste. Overall we enjoyed it.

We frequent Tap 42 often and return due to the outstanding experience. The only issue we had last night is the customers at the next table brought 3 dogs. One was very well behaved and 2 were very rambunctious, to say the least. They even chewed and disconnected the holiday lights on the tree. The owners did nothing. The waitress had to point it out to them. Then when leaving, they expected us to step over the dogs. We love dogs but people should be advised when bringing them, your business is not a dog park. Just want to point out if someone tripped over one of those dogs, your company holds the liability.
