Reviews for Tap in lounge in Berkeley, CA
It’s been awhile and they’ve really changed decor. They’re a lot more hip, with a self-serve tap room, 2-3 arcade games,... and even shelves for ice cream and cigars. Still Indian / American fusion, still tasty Read more
Samosas are cold and the pizza looks nasty, I didn’t like to have to shout over the loud music in an almost empty bar. This... establishment is a horrible neighbor. They play loud music every single night until 1AM which keeps everyone who lives abovethem awake until far past the hour we all need to go to sleep for work the next day. They specifically altered their building togive “high ceilings,” totally eliminating the sound proofing. We have spoken to them many times and they ignore us andlaugh. Please do not give them your business. Oh and one more surprise, there are roaches. Read more
Altogether a nice place, you can drop in after work and enjoy a beer. They have pizza and Indian food, plus a full compliment of... cocktails. Read more
Self serve taps are cool, beers pretty much covered the spectrum. Barrel aged, stout, pilsner, East and West Coast IPA, saison.... Pizza was awesome, chicken Tikka masala was on point. Crust was light and flavorful. Atmosphere, a little out of sorts but itworks, I like the Easter eggs in the mural on the wall. I think 7 TV's throughout, spread out so you could see from just aboutanywhere. Prices are cheap, portions are large especially the chicken. The only suggestion I would have is, put some curry sauceon the side of put a little on top of the pizza. The sauce was on point, the chicken was just a little bit dry. Little currysauce on top would be fire though. Read more
Name is a bit confusing and misleading; expected a pub/bar with food that was appropriate (and a wall of beer taps). Instead I... encountered Indian food, drink coolers full of cans/bottles - no taps, and stale pizza served by unfriendly counter staff. I wasnot offered a freshly poured beer, just making that clear - the less than helpful man behind the counter merely pointed to thewall of drink coolers and asked if I wanted a drink with my food. I'm a very patient / relaxed guy, but don't come here for aleor a bar/pub kind of visit. The name makes absolutely no sense for what they serve (shame on me for not reviewing theirmenu/website beforehand?) There's no pub food, no burgers, no steaks, no baked potatoes. Or fresh pizza; they won't offer tocustomize it - just reheat what's left over. I wanted a few slices of pieces and the gruff pointing to what was still on thecounter is all I got (in addition to the "We don't have that" when I tried selecting other toppings). I saw 1 other person comein for food. 8-10 folks came in just for beer and drinks in the coolers. The pizza was fine, definitely not super awesome andnot the flavors I wanted, though my story about dinner in Berkeley had more going on. Clearly I should have chosen a differentspot for dinner. :( Read more
Randomly stopped in here around lunchtime one day. I had the "Famous Chicken Tikka Pizza" because, well, it's famous. I honestly... was expecting it to taste rather poorly. BUT IT WAS SO GOOD. It's a bit of a walk for me to go there frequently, but I will beback. Based on the pizza, I would absolutely eat their other foods. Staff was friendly and service was prompt. Read more
I can’t believe I passed by this place for 6 months. The signage isn’t great, but they put a sandwich board outside so I... finally saw it. I had a good/inexpensive lamb curry. The draft beer selection is good. They also have pizza and function like acorner store with beer, wine and soft drinks and snacks to bring home. This is definitely going to become a regular spot for me. Read more
Good fries and service. The belching beer tap poured air and charged me a ton and they were quick to fix it. Would come again... when I'm in town thanks guys Read more
