Open table let me make a reservation for Sunday night. I also called the phone number of the restaurant and the message says open daily. When we got there, the restaurant was closed,

I made a reservation for Sunday for my son's 18th bday. Got the reminder on Sunday about the reservation - we get there and the restaurant is closed. We had to scramble for another restaurant

Probably due to the COVID, the same person was sitting people, waiting on tables and working the bar. We waited a few minutes to be seated, over 15 minutes to order and had to go find our server to get our bill. Menu could use more variety. I would not recommend currently, however, I would try it again after the pandemic is over. It's in an old hotel and might be very good in “normal” times

enjoy the outdoor dining area!

Jeff was fantastic!! The room was very cold! Since the entire place was empty, we we surprised that the hostess/ manager fussed about allowing us to sit next to a window and near heat. This would have been easier for Jeff to keep an eye on us while he was tending bar. The hostess was curt when I made this suggestion. Again, you have a gem with Jeff!!

They were short staffed last night and it took 3 hours for us to eat. We felt bad for the waitstaff but the service was beyond horrible and they charged us $12 for 2 "pretzels" which were an appetizer. We got 2 orders so $24 for pretzels!! We questioned it and was told that was correct. I have eaten there many times but I am done.

This restaurant is located in the basement of a hotel. We were the only 2 people there. Waiter was pleasant and food was ok but it was awkward being there. I wouldn't go back just for this reason.

I have been going to the Hat Tavern for years. I always enjoy my dinner no matter what I order. The service is the best of all the restaurants I frequent! I highly recommend The Hat Tavern!

Came in just for drinks while staying at the Grand Summit Hotel. Decent hotel bar with a surprisingly good beer selection. Only real downsides of the bar would have to be the current limited hours and the lighting.Closing at 9 seemed to be too early if you were hoping to enjoy a drink at your hotel.The problem with the lighting is just how bright it was. The bar could have a cool speakeasy vibe sice it's located on the lower level of a hotel, but the lights are so bright it almost felt like a cafeteria.

A friend and I have eaten inside at The Hat a few Sunday evenings in the past few months. Friendly servers and prompt service. Delicious burgers and fries!!! Love not having to look for a parking spot.

Ok service but everything else was mediocre. The kitchen got the order wrong. Tried to make up for the decent food by offering portions which will last for 2-3 days or feed an army. $120 for 1 adult and 3 kids (no drinks) is a bit steep as well. Won't come back.

Hotel bar. Very limited hours. Drinks ok. Pub food...meh.

Decent food and drinks menu. A bit pricey but worth it for the quality. Outdoor seating was nice and there is ample parking once you find your way behind the hotel. There is a bar inside and restrooms down a snaking hallway.

Delicious grey goose Martini and Cobb salad!

Under staffed. The poor employees looked stressed and apologized to us a few times. It took 45 min to get a drink and I had to get up and go to the bar. I know it's tough to get people, but their management needs to step up and do something. Many people simply got up and left.
