Gastropub Shaw's Tavern reviews
14Cool lil atmosphere in the neighborhood. Brisket tasty with a fork! Grits were right & asparagus was done to perfection. Tight space good service good vidles!
My girlfriend and I are visiting my brother and his boyfriend and we’ve had the best time here! Spent NYE and then the best drag show (Kristina Kelly was the BEST) on Sunday that I’ve been to! Highly recommend for excellent food, service (Stephanie), and entertainment! Thank you!
Good place to watch a World Cup game.
We were in town and looking for a place for my son to watch the Argentina game (by the way, it was a great game going into a OT and then a kick-off). My son had the grilled chicken wings, which were good and crispy. I had the country fried steak, which was cooked well. The only thing I could say about the meal was the biscuit was a bit dry, and what I mean is that when you broke it in half, it crumbled like a cracker, it was ok because I got my eggs cooked over medium so I just scooped it up with the egg yolk. We also had the chicken and waffles. The meals were good we just wish they had come out a little hotter.
The service we had was really good, I didn't get the man's name, but he was on point with our drinks and food and always asking if we needed anything.
Menus are viewed via app, and payment for meals is via app as well.
Don't come here for brunch and expect to talk to your friends. The music is night club loud. So we mostly just smiled at each other with a few shouted exchanges. Would not recommend and we will not be back for brunch.
Great place for a beer and some decent food. Had minor food issues, overcooked country fried steak and undercooked burger. Hopefully just a bad night. Will go back.
Live music was amazing! Can’t wait to come back. Service was awesome. Great way to start off the year.
We had an amazing server who made sure we were taken care but let us visit. And the food was amazing.
Food and drinks were great! The staff was prompt and the service was perfect for a large group. We were even able to split our bill seamlessly.
Great menu, drink selections, and trivia!
Shaw’s has a fun, cozy vibe with a menu that has something for everyone. I love everything from the peach & burrata salad to the pasta and burgers. Monday night trivia is always a great time and they have a nice happy hour menu. Check out Shaw’s!
Food is outstanding! I was pleasantly surprised by just how tasty the food was and the more healthy versions of bar food. Just excellent.
Eboni was the BEST waitress. She made sure we had everything we needed and constantly checked in on us. Thank you Shaw for having her as a waitress, she is truly a gem. ASK FOR EBONI!
Casual neighborhood place with lively atmosphere. Service was on the slower end and food was alright. Good for just grabbing a quick, no fuss drink
Im writing this review as I’m currently still here & also, to note, I run 7 restaurants in MD.
My experience has been from the bar on 4/10/22. My bad experience started when the bartender (brunch) threw her blue microfiber behind her (arrogantly I guess) & it landed on my silverware. She never looked back but the guy (Barback maybe?) saw me pick it up from my area & move it to the bar. I thought that was extremely disrespectful.
I didn’t say a thing, musta been a mistake. Cool. I ordered their California benedict & I literally got their poached eggs as scrambled—meaning it was over cooked. Definitely under seasoned. Had to ask for salt & pepper.
I’ll give them 2-3 stars because the vibe was good. Otherwise. I would’ve had a better experience elsewhere.
The wings & drinks were the best part. So that’s good I guess.
OVERALL, come for drinks & apps cause it seems that’s what they know how to nail!
