Service was good and so was the food. It's a great neighborhood spot to watch the games and eat wings or a burger. Tons of stuff/activities to do almost everyday. We thought that was cool! We had burgers. The Washburn which we thought we would get steps of fashion but it was bits. Thought that was wierd, but it was good. Waffle fries with seasoned sour cream...yum. The slider sampler was ridiculous! It was huge! Leftovers. The Bathroom was small and the floor was sticky. But. It was clean! Parking.. there is a lot, but not a lot of spaces when your sharing it with another restaurant. There off street, so that helps. No pics because we were so hungry we forgot!!

This is my first review since creating this Yelp account, and while I know 1 star reviews can come off as hate mail, that's not what this is. This is meant to be fair critique and a chance for this café to receive feedback for improvement - not an attack on the owners or the staff who help run it. That being said, I don't recommend anyone to go to it in its current state. Myself and the person I was with arrived and we both had the same special that was being served: corned beef, cabbage and potatoes. We both had a craving for it and it was the reason we'd came to the Tailgate to begin with. Both specials rounded up to around $32, and when it arrived, it barely looked $7. The cabbage and potatoes looked like it had been slopped onto the plate like a high school cafeteria, the corned beef itself was serviceable but there was barely any portion to it, and the entire plate just wasn't at all seasoned. In fact, it was almost tasteless without the liberal amount of salt and pepper I had to put on it. It was barely warm like it had already been made an hour ago and left to sit until someone ordered it. Overall, the food was terrible and not at all worth the price. The service itself was fine - there weren't a lot of people on the day we went so the waitress was able to get to us in a timely manner. She was nice and made sure to check in, no real complaints there. The ambiance I'm fairly bias about because I don't really care for sports bars (I'm not a sports guy), but this place was absolutely dead. It's a fairly open space, but almost no music could be heard and the lighting was drab. The place, apt to its name, looks like the inside of a garage. It's just not fun to eat inside. And then, finally, there was the nail in the coffin. We were given a Toast remote to pay for the food, and while we were given options on what to tip, we wanted to tip 15% and that wasn't displayed. There was no subtotal to work off of as it included the tax in the overall total, so we had to just... guess what it was. We printed a receipt, and then we were charged for a "digital service fee" when we were given literally no other option besides cash. All in all, this place is a 1 star stop. The food is overpriced and barely serviceable, the atmosphere is depressing, and the hidden total to what we were paying as well as the surprise digital service charge just makes this place patron-hostile. Please, try to liven the place up and take more care in what your serving and how you're serving it.

Cheap options for eating out and I love their French onion soup and also their grilled cheese sandwich. Karaoke on Tuesdays and Saturdays and is fun.
I was really hoping I wouldn’t have to write this post as we tried giving ownership time to handle this situation correctly but after many communications from parties involved with empty promises to get back to us in a timely manner … we have now been ghosted. On Dec 15th, a group of my friends and I came to Tailgate to enjoy some beverages and Karaoke. On last call, a couple of people in our group went to the bar to order a shot. Our other friend walked up to the bar and an off-duty bartender said “Not for you. We are closed black girl” … to which clearly there were big reactions. Of course, there was drinking involved (on both sides) so emotions were high, but I would hope that there would be heightened emotions when standing up for what was clearly wrong and a pointed racist comment. There was also another comment made after that which I am uncomfortable even typing the sentence but it involved the N word. We got kicked out (which wasn’t unexpected … but we did expect fair treatment for all parties involved) and as we were trying to get an Uber, the off-duty bartender and her friend group were allowed to stay inside and continue to scream things at our group. We left, and multiple people in our group reached out to the owner and management the next day. The owner apologized and said she would review the video footage as she didn’t review it with audio and follow up. We haven’t heard back as promised even after reaching out many times. Unfortunately, the things that were said are a hate crime. I want to support small, local businesses and would have hoped this was handled with grace. My fear is that there is a member of the staff here who clearly has a pointed view and to me, that is dangerous to have working at your establishment. Wishing for better, fair treatment …and a safe place for all.
I'm a semi regular for some reason the Saturday night bartender can't seem to get it right never gets my drink order right I gave up correcting him because it's still not right Tonight I put in a to go order a plain cheese burger and fries it came out California style when I pointed it out sorry man was all that was said so I left came home and now have a happy dog because I fed it ti here

Tonya is the best waitress ever she definitely needs a raise. Food is delicious and definitely worth it.I recommend the sweet and spicy wings mixed with the pineapple its fire. The sweet and spicy really hot mixed with the pineapple is delicious.
