So you are thinking of going to the Wheeltapper. Well it has great ambience with all its vintage train memorabilia and the back patio is very pleasant. The service was also good and staff friendly. However we have all heard of midtown sticker shock and this place takes the cake. For example an order of simple pub food dish like potato skins was $14.00 for 3 potato skins. Thats right 3 potato halves. Someone in the kitchen must be seeking revenge for the potato famine. Additional and this really bugged me - they add the gratuity directly to your bill and don't tell you when they present you with the check. Thats right. I noticed my gratuity added to the bill and I was a mere party of 2. They even had the audacity of leaving a line where you can add additional money for an even bigger tip. My tip to you is to tap on by the Wheeltapper as fast as you can.
Pros: Nice Ambience
Cons: Overpriced and not forthright about gratuity policy
