It was a rainy Thursday and unfortunately for me the kitchen had gone home by the time I showed up. It was 13 years since I had last been to Standard Tap and it was still excellent. Great beer, good service and wort taking the time to go there.

The atmosphere is what drew us to standard tap. The outside looks like a cute German pub and and inside is wooden tavern with warm lighting. The staff was pretty friendly and when we asked for a single drink between the two of us, they gave us two smaller glasses and split it which was nice. The beer itself was good. Nothing amazing but also pretty solid. The hazy was fresh and had a decent amount of haze. Overall a pretty good spot

We had a reservation for 12 at 5pm on a Sunday and when we arrived Dave was able to seat us a few minutes early. Since I was the point of contact for my group he took me on a quick tour of the entire upstairs and the outside balcony, which is awesome. He also took the time to explain the history behind the place and how the renovations and new material were made to look old and in line with the original decor. The food and service were excellent. Our waiter (Andrew) was very attentive and accommodating to our quirky requests. The ambience is exactly what we were looking for and our entire party raved about the experience. Four stars for the food due to it being a little pricier than expected, but the taste was excellent. Will definitely be coming back to try out the balcony seating in warmer weather.

Really nice multilevel establishment with lots of great personality in the decor and the wooden cozy rooms. There were neat paintings and an ambient disco ball. We ordered as a group of 6, some oysters and burgers and fries. They had the skinny fries with the skin on. We were seated pretty much immediately at 7pm on a Friday night which is nice. Good strong cocktails. Really nice way to start our night with dinner and some drinks!
