Its a very rare thing that my husband and I go to a bar or restaurant and only order three things total. Its an even rarer thing for us to order only three things total and have one of them be unavailable. But ALL THREE? That happened to us at Tap. We went in one Friday during happy hour, sat at the bar, and ordered a glass of white wine (didn't even specify a varietal!), a Sam Adams, and a plate of the calamari listed on the menu. Our bartended cheerfully said ""no problem!"" One minute later we were informed that ALL the white wine in the place hadn't been chilled and was hot, but he could serve it to me ""on ice"". Uh, yuck. A couple of minutes later he told my husband they were out of Sam Adams. THEN, after that, he told us that the kitchen ""couldn't make"" the calamari until 5 pm. It was about 4:45. He told us he could give us a plate of the olives stored on the bar. He did, they were terrible, and then he charged us for them. We choked down the olives, iced down wine, and whatever replacement beer was offered, and got the heck out of there. Its unbelievable to me that a BAR would be out of chiilled wine and a featured beer DURING HAPPY HOUR?!?!? And no flexibility to make something off the happy hour menu 15 minutes early? We would have just waited...but...they didn't have our drinks! We won't go back. We're not even that picky, but come ON.
Pros: Its cool looking inside, I guess...
Cons: No easy parking, no chilled beer or Sam Adams at happy hour, crappy olives when they won't make you the calamari you ordered
