--4.5 stars--
Went here for dinner and was very impressed. I enjoyed the casual, laid-back atmosphere of the restaurant as well as the great drink selections. There were a number of things on the menu that I wanted to order but I settled on the lamb burger, which is an unfair way of putting it because the meal was great. Perfectly cooked and complemented by the jalapeno aioli. Â Also had the oysters and the pan fried aged gouda, both of which left me wanting more. Great service, and although a bit pricy...I am definitely looking forward to going back.
From Los Angeles, but was in Cleveland on business. I'm a bit of a foodie-snob wannabe, and I thought the Tap House was AMAZING. Great beer selection, and the food was excellent. Every dish had a unique spin put on it - highly, highly recommended. We sat at the bar, but the outside patio area is nice too. Also plenty of TVs for sports.
Review Source:Had an extremely good Oktoberfest meal at the taphouse! The schnitzel was amazing and the beer delicious.
The fact that an UmmPah band was playing set the ambience at a higher level and a good time was had by all. To prove that I have the big boot from my beer sitting on the mantle at the house.
Waiter forms an Ariel Castro meta-narrative when I ask for house salad. Brings a beer goblet that smells like old dishwater. Place has a bike box bigger than anyone's will to bike here as a destination. young Tremont couples like to go here, they want to go somewhere off the beaten path. Laugh out loud, I am a comedian. This place has malaise after the news story from a short walk away. You know its bad when the yuppies have humility.
Review Source:Fled to Tremont Tap House after my teenagers balked at a different Cleveland restaurant that shall not be named. Thank goodness Tremont was open on a Sunday evening. Everything was great. From the friendly staff to the really nice patio where we enjoyed our meal. Asparagus salad, an amazing salmon BLT, and very good mussels. Terrific draft beer selection - I enjoyed the Ommegang Rare Vos. I look forward to a return visit.
Review Source:A friend took me here for brunch when I was in town visiting, and it was one of the best brunches I've had in a while. I had a hard time ordering because I wanted multiple things! Our waiter was super chill and really friendly, and to top it off, he allowed me to bring my dog into the patio to sit with me while I ate. Typically they only allow dogs on certain days, so they made an exception, which I really appreciated.
Review Source:We accidentally stumbled upon this place and I am so glad we did!!!
I consider myself a "beer snob" and I fit right in here! They had an amazing selection of beer on tap - something for everyone AND their prices were great!! We both had burgers - mine was a little salty - but they were both very good. Our service was great and we sat outside on their patio. We even chatted with the couple at the table next to us.
We do not live on this side of town, but I think we would venture over again just to visit the Tremont Tap House. LOVED this place!
I enjoyed a little bit of happy hour earlier this week while on my way to an Indians game at the Jake. Â They have a very nice selection of craft beers (including several Ohio-made) and some good happy hour food to accompany them. I liked the German pretzel and cheese plate. The bar's setting is very nice and the fellow bar customers were friendly. Â I especially liked the large open window behind the taps. Service was quite good; the sever was very nice and very attractive too!
I'll be sure to return next time I'm in Cleveland for a game.
My wife and I came to Cleveland Ohio for a little weekend getaway. I googled and did a lot of research on places to get a great burger. the 2 that came up a lot were Tremont tap house and Bspot burgers. Â Well In my opinion Tremont topped Bspot burgers with no competition.
We arrived and from the outside looks like a little hole in the wall place, but when you walk in it livens up real quick. they were able to seat us right away and within a few seconds our waitress greeted us, very friendly and with a big smile. We ordered a couple beers. With a burger I always order some kind of IPA, I feel that they pair amazingly with burgers. I wanted to try sometrhing I have not had before and being from grand rapids michigan , cleveland had a lot I have not heard of. She was very knowledgeable of the beers on tap and bottled and was even nice enough to let us sample some of the beers on tap. We finaly chose our beer and next up were the burger choices.
I ordered the bacon cheeseburger plain but you can't go wrong with that. I ordered my burger and both my wife and I asked for it to be medium rare. They brought out the burger with fries . Gotta say these fries were amazing. I bit into my burger to find a warm pink lightly bloody perfectly cooked center in the middle. Oh my I was in heaven, and the beer was the perfect ending to the pallet.
I would for sure come here again and to those who read and have not been there go try it out. Yes there burgers are a little more pricey but for a good burger you can't put a price on it....
This place is AWESOME!!! I just recently visited in very pleasant company..;)
They have a great selection of beer! I had a Belgian pale ale. Had their chorizo tacos which were good. The patio is highly recommended, nestled a little ways from the main tremont strip.
The Mac and cheese was very good and the salmon came highly recommend. The duck looked great as well but unfortunately they were out.
The owner is very friendly, as is the rest of the staff. Oh! And they have a great place upstairs. They have seating overlooking the main street and a private area for birthdays and other celebrations. The private are is extremely comfortable and trendy with a long dining table with red leather chairs and an uber welcoming sofa sectional as well, all complete with a full screen.
I would definitely go back! They have an amazing beer selection!! Cheers!
Also they do Monday night movies and have been told they do a great brunch!
Our most recent visit to Tremont Taphouse came for a special occasion - my birthday. I was looking for somewhere casual but high quality, and accessible. Now, Taphouse normally does not take reservations, but they do groups, and since I was coming with 10, I was able to reserve a table on a Saturday night. That was really great.
Our service throughout the evening was phenomenal. It's not easy to work with 10, but our waitress was great, attentive, friendly, and flexible.
This time we ordered the pretzel (wonderful as always) and two sets of tacos: the chorizo and the BBQ chicken. I've never gotten the tacos here and am glad I did as they were very good flavor combinations and held together really well.
One of my top 3 hangout places in Cleveland! Â Never had a bad experience here. Â Great atmosphere. Â Music is never too loud like other bars. Â Menu is small... but top tier as far as bar food goes in my opinion. Â I've brought friends, parents, & dates here and everyone loved it too. Â One of Cleveland's best bars as far as I'm concerned.
Review Source:Usually pretty crowded, and noisy. Â The clientele seem to be a mix of hipsters and yuppies, and it has the feel of a happening joint. Â Decent beer selection, the food is pretty good, but I liked the bone-in ribeye steak better when they weren't aging the beef in house. Â Since they started doing that, it's merely a decent steak, not really worth what they charge for it -- you can get the same quality elsewhere for around $15.
Review Source:Didn't come here to drink, so my review isn't based on the "Tap" part of the Tremont Tap House.
We came a while ago (last summer?) and sat outside. The atmosphere is pretty nice, but I found that, while the food was good, it was overpriced for the quantity, which is something I encounter a lot with these trendy restaurants.
Ultimately though, our server - a youngish man who I've tried to forget - was the biggest a$$hole I think I've ever had wait on me at a restaurant. It's unfortunate for the tap house, because in spite of the pleasant atmosphere and good food, the waiter left such a bad taste in our mouths we have no intention of going back. For a tap house it comes across as a little pretentious.
Tremont redeemed a weekend trip to Cleveland that was threatening to end badly. Hooray! Went here for brunch on my way out of town and I am so glad I did.
So many taps and interesting beers, including lots of Ohio brews. We went for Sunday brunch and our group of four raved the entire time. It was nice to sit in a booth near the bar with the big window open.
Between the breakfast pizza (maybe a tad heavy on the hollandaise, but it was delicious), burrito, and duck confit stuffed waffles, there were lots of smiles going around. I appreciate any establishment that offers a nice heavy breakfast beer (stouts & porters are my fav for that) and enjoyed myself thoroughly. Service was prompt and friendly. Wish I could come every weekend, and for happy hour, which looked to offer some good deals.
Cool place, but for my first time there were a couple of things that were off...maybe it was the rainy weather. Â First, the beer selection was good, but at a time where it wasn't "crazy" it was a bit hard to get the attention of the bartenders and I was standing in the middle of the bar. Â When I flagged a bartender down it seemed like I aggravated him by asking him if they had seating upstairs? Â Don't know if they do or not as he asked "why I wanted to go upstairs?" Â I was there to meet a group and didn't see them in the main seating area, but as soon as figured out the people that I was supposed to meet his attitude changed.
From that point on it seemed like he was overly helpful, but still messed up my beer order for all three beers that I ordered. Â Everybody that I was there with seemed to be having a good time as I arrived late, so I will just drum up this experience to an exception and not the standard. Â
I am willing to give any place a second chance, so I will adjust accordingly next time.
Called ahead and asked if they were busy for brunch. they said that they weren't. In the 15 minutes it took to get there, the place was filled with bikers or runner for some race. The hostess was no where to be found.
We flagged a bartender only to find out that they had an abridged menu. Would have been nice to know that when we called. The only thing that we wanted wasn't on the menu. We promptly left.
I consider this place to be "my bar"; it's a comfortable, creative atmosphere staffed by great servers and knowledgable bar tenders. Â You are encouraged to let your wild, artistic self loose upon bar top with colored chalk. Â The patio complete with firepit is a great place to hang out. Â The summer season brings back Monday movie night on the patio, and yappy hour every Tuesday (pet friendly on the patio). Â The beer list is incredible; it's interesting and diverse. Â Our favorite bartender (Eric) is always introducing us to new beer and educating us on different breweries. Â I love that this is a Tremont haunt... it is my favorite place to enjoy a beer and the company of friends. Â Don't overlook the quality of their food, this place is not merely a place for beer connoisseurs but also for foodies (I love the black and blue burger & fries w/ jalapeno aioli)!
Review Source:So, go ahead. Â Make fun of the old guy, who never makes it to the great places until there have been a billionty-seven reviews and all the cool kids have moved on to that new place that serves placenta polenta, or whatever. Â I'm old. Â I can take it.
Took three generations of foodies out to brunch this morning, promising to try a new place. Â The Tap sits on the corner of Scranton and, as my GPS Gal pronounced it, "Stark Weether." Â Parking in the back. Â Jammed out on the patio, but we got a booth in the loud-ish area next to the bar. Â I really needed some iced tea. Â Uh-oh. Â Only available in bottles. Â So much for my bottomless thirst for my caffeine of choice. Â (Although the bottle of corporate Republic of Teas was pretty effin' tasty. Â Must admit.)
Oysters? Â Well, yeah. Â We'll take a dozen to start but, uh, what's the (as quoted) price? Â Uh-oh. Â Three bucks per. Â Well, no.
Here's the four dishes that they got spectacularly right:
Two chorizo/pepper/other great stuff omelettes.
One blueberry pancakes with the obligatory pecan ice cream.
One breakfast pizza, drizzled with Hollandaise. Â
The missing fifth star is because, even though the rest of the inside seating area was already nearly deserted, the food took forty-five minutes. Â Three people apologized, but that's a whole heck of a long wait for four items with no changes or substitutions. Â AND, the folks at the next booth arrived, ordered and were served, just in the time we waited and waited. Â Ah, well. Â These things happen. Â We had nowhere else to go. Â I gazed longingly at the wall o' beers on tap, lusted after the mixed beer list, watched the Tribe prepare to lose their seventh straight... Â Wait'll NEXT year, baby!

Cleveland needs more bars like Tremont Tap House.
The food is excellent. Â I've been here multiple times both for their Sunday Brunch, and for lunch and dinner. Â The food never disappoints, the menu was designed by a real chef, and it's heads and tails above typical "Bar Food."
Specifically, this place has the best burger I have ever eaten in my entire life. Â The seasoning is on point, and the fried egg on top (optional) is always cooked perfectly. Â The Sunday morning Brunch Mimosa's are actually made with Original Sin Hard Cider, which makes for a unique and delicious mimosa.
My only complaint is that this place is KILLER on my wallet, but alas, you have to pay for good food and drink. Â Will be back over and over again!
One of my favorite spots in Cleveland!
Always has an amazing beer selection on tap. Â My boyfriend is a big fan of the beer cocktails that they have as well.
The food is incredible. Â I have never had anything bad off of the menu. Â The mussels are a must for an appetizer. Â They have great burgers, the turkey club and salmon blt are delicious. Â The taphouse philly is also delicious. Â The mac and cheese is also really good. Â Honestly, you can't go wrong.
They also have a nice outdoor patio that is connected to the bar so you can order drinks outside!
This was a great stop during my Cleveland bar hop.
It has that laid back, welcoming vibe of a dive bar - but the aesthetics of a really nice bar. Â The bar top also is made of chalk so you can make little doodles as you drink your tasty beverages.
Our bartender was great - and so were the patrons - everyone was just super nice and chill. Â We chatted with an older couple who were regulars who gave us the run down of some of their favorite beer cocktails, yes beer cocktails. Â And they were SO GOOD. I had one with Gin, St Germain, IPA, Pineapple and basil. Â Uuuuumm yeahhhh.
If you don't want one fancy concoctions, they  have a great selection of craft beers as well.
This part of Cleveland certainly rocked.
I have been here 3 times now, and I'm only holding out of 5 stars because I haven't really eaten here yet. Â I have tried the Calamari which is really good. Â Some of the food prices seem a little high (12 dollars for a sandwich).
As others mentioned, the seating is limited, but I somehow haven't had a problem finding a seat yet. Â There were quite a few people standing near tables the last time I was there. Â
Service has been pretty good. Â I waited a while when first seated on a Sunday, but other times it has been prompt. Â It seems that the servers also pour their own drinks behind the bar. Â This is probably more efficient but it leads to the server being gone longer.
A major plus for me is that they have Magner's cider here, which I really like. Â A lot of places in Cleveland only have Angry Orchard or Original Sin which taste like sugared up apple juice. Â
Their patio is large and seems like it would be nice in the warmer weather.
The Tremont Tap House is my favorite restaurant in the Tremont area. The menu is amazing - try the chorizo tacos, chorizo pizza, and the huge pierogies. They are incredible. Â With tons of micro brews on tap, you won't find any domestics here. It doesn't matter if you don't know what to drink because the staff here is always friendly and ready with a recommendation on what beer to have with what entree, as long as they're not busy. Â They are also generous with handing out samples so you don't order something you won't like. (One suggestion: if you're here around October, try the Southern Tier Pumking Ale. It's incredible. I first found it here and have been buying it up for Halloween ever since. )
My only complaint is that when the bar is busy, you will sit. And sit. And sit. Finally, someone will take your order or refresh your drink. I would have given 5 stars if based solely on food and drink, but the service left a little something to be desired. Friendly staff is great, but having to wait too long for service really irritates me.
Overall, I'd recommend the Tap House. I've never had a bad meal or shitty beer here. Limit your expectations on amazing service, and you won't be disappointed.
We needed to get out of the house the day after Thanksgiving so we decided to go out to dinner and somehow landed on Tremont Tap House. They have parking in the back which is a win for the area.
The service was great and our waitress was very helpful in picking something on tap... there were almost too many choices.
What I like the most was how they make comfort foods a little more upscale and seasonal. I'd definitely go back the next time I'm in Cleveland... I can get an awesome grilled cheese without dealing with a line like the one at Melt.
Almost without fail the first question I ask when deciding on where to spend my dining dollars is "How's the beer list?" And it's not just about length, either. I'm talking an intelligently designed and well thought out mix of brews that works in concert with the menu offerings. Tremont Tap House manages all of the above and more.
Tucked away on a corner of Scranton Road in Cleveland's Tremont neighborhood (who knew?) the Tremont Tap House is a wonderful addition to the Cleveland dining and beverage scene. In what I can only describe as an homage to beer and the relatively new art of food/beer pairing, this place has found an unmet need in our fair city and filled it to overflowing.
First things first, the beer. It's clear that the folks at theTremont Tap House worship the stuff and I love it. It starts out with a beer list that has it all - a well-rounded grouping of bottles that's organized by style along with a bevy of useful information (ABV %, brewery, location) and a regularly updated 24-tap draft list featuring a selection of brews that range from the craft brew noob friendly Great Lakes Wright Pils to the palette punching Breckenridge 471 imperial IPA. If you're going to bill yourself as a gastropub you'd better be prepared to walk the walk. No worries here.
The menu is just as good. A hefty selection of small plates (perfect for noshing with a $10/4-beer sampler) along with burgers, pizza, sandwiches and hearty entrées make it the perfect companion to a night of malt worship. On the eve of our visit we took a seat outside on the airy patio and proceeded to stuff our guts:
German pretzel app ($7.50) - This was the only major disappointment of the meal. I love soft pretzels with my beer and I love them even more when they're done right. A good soft pretzel should be nice and crispy on the outside and soft and doughy on the inside. This one was more like very dry bread than a pretzel. Good thing there was a tasty stout and smoked cheddar dipping sauce to help lube its way down.
Braised pork shank soft taco special ($18) - There's just something about seeing a giant piece of meat setting on a slab of wood with charred bones sticking out that makes me want to grunt and dive right in. Served with all the fixins (pickled onions, shredded cabbage, salsa verde, cilantro and warm flour tortillas) think of this one as a do-it-yourself carnitas. The pork was tender and juicy, the veg was crunchy and fresh and the fingers were perfectly greasy afterward.
Chorizo tacos small plate ($10) - As trio of crispy tacos packed with as much flavor as a Quinceañera dinner. The spicy chorizo, balanced well by the cooling goat cheese crumbles and green onions, went perfectly with the charred and diced red pepper salsa. I could have eaten two orders.
Just a small note on the service; it was pretty laid back and no frills. Don't come here expecting to be coddled through the dining process by some effete French nancy extolling the virtues of every last menu ingredient. For the most part I don't care about the name of the farm that made the goat cheese or the fact that the pig I'm about to eat was raised on a diet of Sprite and Nutella. This place is as straightforward as you can get with a team of tatted and industry-worn professionals that will get you what you want without the unnecessary fanfare and overly friendly pomp. Â Some may call it rude or curt. I call it Cleveland.
So what could make coming home after four years of being out of state even better? How about coming home to find out that Cleveland finally has its first gastropub and that they managed to not only be first but to be great right along with it. If you're looking for some delicious upscale pub grub and a beer list that can hold its own against any in the state, get your butt into one of their seats...right...now.
Stopped in here for a quick dinner. There was no seating at the tables so we sat at the bar -- still a great place to dine and talk though!
I will be back for the small plates so I'll make this quick... the Green Chili with black bean burger was the best vegetarian burger I've had so far since I made the switch. They spice it up with cumin and somehow make it the same texture as a medium/medium rare burger... plus the green chili + aioli was just a super good combination. Yum!
I really enjoyed it here. Our party sat at the bar, which has the fun addition of a chalkboard to doodle on! The bartender who waited on us was really pleasant.
The calamari was amazing and the burger I got was pretty tasty! The beer selection is fantastic. The bar has a window that opens to the outside, creating a great atmosphere!
I left plenty full and feeling great.
Fantastic food, service, beer selection and atmosphere!
The owner was our server and was very attentive. Â I found this place on Yelp while visiting Cleveland to see the Rock Hall. Â They did a really nice job with this place. Â They even show movies on the patio on Monday nights and have a fire pit out there as well. Â I highly recommend it.
Four score and seven plus years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Then i went to the tap house for breakfast on a Sunday. Opened up at 10 am. Had the eggs Benedict, over medium. Â $12.00 for breakfast in a bar seemed over the top. After all it was 2 eggs' an English muffin and a cubed up potato.
The food was very tasty. No liquor sales before 11am. Bloody marry was a no go. However mimosas and beer we available.  I left at  11am and the place was almost packed. Either get there when they open or don't be in a hurry.
In all, the Cost effected the over all rating. Friendly service, tasty food and quick enough service.
P.S. the mimosa was $6.00 not too bad. Filled it to the rim!
Tap House has got a fun atmosphere, funky menu, and impressive beer selection. Sounds like a dream, eh?
I had the strangely intriguing Moules Frites-- fries and mussles topped with bleu cheese, bacon, shallots, garlin, and sitting in a Belgian beer broth. Sound interesting enough? In addition to being a surprising combination of ingredients, it was delicious! Now to be honest, I am not a bleu cheese fan, not even a bit, but the cheese they use is so mild even I could handle it.
And the beers! Ohhh man, the beers. I spent 10 minutes staring at that long list before I could finally make my choice. I got a taste of the Ithaca Flower Power and the Roque Hazelnut Brown. The Flower Power is a citrusy, flowery, hoppy beer. Good choice in you're into that. But the Hazelnut Brown, wowweeee. This thing was smooth, nutty, deep, dark.... everything you'd expect from a name like that.
Yes, there was a long wait. And yes, it'd be nice if it were a tad cheaper. But regardless of all that, this place serves up to its promise- good beer and good food.
Holy smokes. I'm worried about the Tremont Taphouse, you guys.
To preface, I had always seen the Taphouse as a solid source of reasonably priced and well-enough-executed "gastropub" fare and a good craft-beer selection; however, I hadn't been in a year or two, as it has apparently joined the official Cleveland Yuppie Bar Circuit and that horde is just a bit too much for my liking. Thinking Market Garden may have pulled away some of the Taphouse's client base, reducing the crowds/SUVs, and nonetheless assuming the quality of the offerings had remained the same, I decided to give Sunday brunch a try. MISTAKE CITY.
Upon reviewing the menu, I was somewhat shocked to see that it out-priced the Flying Fig's brunch - Â because 1) the Flying Fig's is a classy restaurant that makes an AMAZING, fresh, and local-centric brunch (and other meals); and 2) the Taphouse is a "gastropub" Â that has always had good, but never mindblowing food (like the Fig). Anyway, I certainly don't mind paying for great food, so this wasn't that big of a deal, it simply raised my expectations. Whoops.
We both ordered omelets ($12.50) the chorizo and the mushroom/goat cheese. Both came out INSANELY quickly - like, 5 minutes - but both were somehow luke warm?? Â After breaking into my omelet, I discovered why - the filling consisted of pre-cooked, dry, room-tempature chorizo hash that had been thrown in the omelet, which barely warmed once inside. That's it. This is what I paid $12.50 for. The only thing freshly cooked was the eggs. Oh, and it also came some fried potato "hashbrowns" - the kind that you self-serve at hotel breakfast buffets. Good grief.
With underwhelming and overpriced food, it's fairly apparent that the Taphouse is trying to become a the next South Side; which is apparently a good enough business model based on the crowds that place attracts. So I guess I can't blame them, because who doesn't like making boatloads of cash!? (Amirite you guys?! Sigh.)
And I understand that people often go to Tremont for the aesthetic of feeling hip by going to nicely refurbished places in a neighborhood that wasn't built around cul-de-sacs; but without that draw, the Tremont Taphouse would cease to exist.
Going to make this short and sweet: simply, I love the Tap House. Â Terrific selection of microbrews, great, friendly, attentive (but not hovering) and knowledgeable service, relaxed atmosphere, delicious eats, enough room to breathe and hear each other talk. Plus chalkboard-bar-tops and colored chalk to doodle with for the artsy drunks in all of us. Â It's our number one go-to gastropub, whether for just ourselves or friends/family visiting in town. Â And given Cleveland's excellent food, microbrew and gastropub scene, that's saying a lot.
Recommendations:
Eats: their "I heart moule frites" (mussel fries), richly savory mussels in a beer sauce, tossed with crisp fries and generously topped with crumbled bacon and blue cheese, satisfy me in ways no person or thing has ever satisfied me or ever will. Â Their pretzel with beer cheese sauce is excellent as well.
Dranks: there's multiple brew available for every palate and I have yet to meet anyone on their staff who won't voluntarily launch into an enthusiastic, detailed discussion of heads, noses, mouthfeels and other finer points of one brew vs. the next. Â You tell them what you like, they make you a customized sampler. Â The selection gets updated seasonally; generally, expect at least a score on draught and about 80+ in bottles. Â Selections from Rogue, Southern Tier, Troegs, Victory, Stone, Bell's, Dogfish, and even Hitachino make their list. Â
Can't say enough about TTH. Â What a boon to Cleveland, may it stay fantastic and stick around forever.
