    Crowded tables. Fries not hot. Overly Spicy burger sauce. Mediocre Bouillabaisse.

    Probably won’t visit for a while.. I decided to take my partner out for a birthday meal. We got 2 orders of chicken wings and some burgers and it was decent. My favourite part of this restaurant was the location, great views of the water. Our server was great although no one acknowledged that it was a birthday celebration (as indicated on the reservation) and we didnt feel like they cared. I felt a bit embarrassed and regretted surprising my partner to celebrate his birthday at this place.

    The Hostess was welcoming and friendly. Compliments to the waitress, she was attentive, friendly and the service was awesome! The overhead heaters were full blast and really hot. She listened to us and turned down the heat.

    It was the night of the BIG GAME and unbelievably noisy. And full, which I think is 800 people. We asked for a change which was noticeably better, although still noisy
    Tap & Barrel • BridgesResponded 7 days ago
    Thanks for sharing your experience, Susan. We’re glad the change helped a bit, but we understand the noise can be overwhelming during big events. We appreciate your feedback and are always looking for ways to enhance our guests' experience. Hope to see you again soon!

    If you have a hearing loss and don't wear hearing aids, this isn't the place for you. I use hearing aids with a microphone for the 1 person I'm with, but if there are a few people, it would be difficult. The open ceiling, although a trendy look, it isn't good because the noise - music, conversations, laughter - bounce off the the metal ceiling and ductwork. Food is always good here. And if you're dining at the Bridges location, sitting outside by the water is very nice. My friend had the Lobster Roll, which she said was very good, but "definitely not a 'hand-held item' as listed in the menu. I had the Spicey Ahi Tuna Burger. Very tasty and it stayed together, but very messy. We did have slight problems with our server forgetting things we'd asked for - water, and part of my meal. As someone who uses a walker, I made sure to alert them when making my reservation on Open Table, but if it's a weeknight, and not too busy, they can likely accommodate whatever accessibility needs you have as a walk-in guest. It was busier than i expected for a Tuesday night. Overall a good experience.
