We came in the afternoon on a weekday for a quick drink and a snack, the Apple margarita was great and the spinach dip appetizer was amazing. Our waitress was great too, I’m sorry I forgot her name. There are lots of TVs with sports on, and there is Club Keno and pull tabs here. I will definitely be back for a full meal here because the menu looked really good.

Good food and friendly staff. Lots of drinks to choose from. Would like to come back when it's warmer and they open the big doors.

While visiting our family, that recently moved to Clarkston, we decided to go to the Clarkston Tap last night as family had been there before. I will admit I was a bit apprehensive after reading some of the negative reviews. However, I was greatly surprised at the service, food & atmosphere on a Saturday evening. The "tag-team" approach of the staff was outstanding, to say the least! It made us feel like we were the only customers in the house. Food did not disappoint either as we shared nachos, chicken wings, and the best mac-n-cheese I have ever had. So, if you're thinking about going to the Clarkston Tap, disregard any negative reviews and go have a great experience!
