I have been to TavCo a few times in the past 4 years. The more recent the visit, the better the experience. The new ownership has done a wonderful job of cleaning the place up. The menu is much larger, and the food is really good for "Bar Food". They carry the traditional bar fare along with some more interesting options. We split a flatbread with Apples, Prosciutto, Dates, and Goat Cheese. Awesome!
They run specials thoughout the whole week. We were there on a Tuesday night and the four of us did Trivia. I was skeptical as it was my first time every doing it, but we ended up having a blast. Even got a few bucks off our bar tab.
One one side of the place you have the bar with some booths, and the other side has more of a restaurant feel. Food is defiantly better than the Cedar Lee "Pub", and this place doesn't turn into a punch palace.
Seriously, how do you beat 16 ounce PBR's for 2 bucks??
