   Particularly with a gentle December snow and the Christmas decor of the square …. there is no better place than Talbott Tavern. Thank you, Bethany, for your great service and energy.

   2.5 rating, actually. Underwhelming. Our sides came to the table cold, the drinks were mediocre and service was very slow. Several things didn’t go our way, (beer taps just came back online the day previous, so selection was very meager, and a 17 seat table placed orders right before ours) but there was no explanation from our server as to why things were so delayed and cold. A little explanation would have gone a long way. The building is interesting step back in time.

   We enjoyed everything we had from the appetizers to the desserts (plural in both categories). Colton provided excellent service.

   The collard greens were cold and flavorless and the rest of the food was mediocre at best. I would not go back. If you want a nice Talbott experience, just go sit at the bar and have some cocktails - but go somewhere else to eat - we were just very disappointed because we were so excited about having dinner in this iconic venue and everything fell flat.

    Restaurant was Unorganized, mismanaged, understaffed, had poor quality of food, had insanely long waits for everything...extremely disappointing. The tavern bar was even worse & filthy. The bartender was very unskilled, even for basic mixed drinks in the Bourbon capital! He also carried large individual ice cubes across the bar to place in the glass with his bare nasty hands! 🤢 I'm trying to remember even one thing positive about either place...I've got 0
