Boxcar Tavern

We came across this place when looking for a brunch spot. It’s a pub but don’t let that fool you, the brunch food is really good. We were seated quickly inside and the server immediately took our drink orders. The drinks were great and reasonably priced. Everyone enjoyed their food. Between us we had the avocado Benedict, steak and eggs, wings, brunch burger, omelette, French toast and the breakfast burrito. Portions were large for the price. We liked it so much we went back the following day.

I am unfamiliar with the area and it looked good. Atmosphere was perfect for a rainy October night. I was able to order and receive a beer right away but then waited 15 minutes before the server asked if I had food on the way. Told him I was waiting to order. He took my order and was apologetic. After another 20 minutes or so they brought out a salad which I did not order. After returning that the server comped a 2nd beer. The correct food came out promptly and it was good. After I had finished both my food and beer I waited for a bit before having to ask to close out. After asking it was another 10 minutes before being brought the check. The place was at 50% capacity or less the whole time. Unfortunately it also smelled like dishwater. The staff were very nice but the above detailed issues wrecked my experience here.

Voted Favorite Neighborhood Spot for a reason. This is a great place to chill and drink away the pressures of life. The atmosphere is like a pub with the beautiful hardwood floors and bar. Plenty of outdoor seating. The bartenders are so engaging and management takes pride in making sure your experience is enjoyable.
Boxcar is a great spot to meet good ppl and have a great time. Whether it’s before a game or after work come in have a beer, a cocktail or a shot and leave feeling good.
Kitchen is willing to accommodate some custom orders.

Good spot to stop in for lunch. We wanted bar food to cure/feed our hangover. They didn’t seem that busy when we walked in and yet we read the reviews online and chose to go. The nacho appetizers were okay. The chips were really crunchy (which is a great thing) and yet the toppings were just placed on in sections and not really cohesive. The Bloody Mary drink was too spicy and I couldn’t drink it. The chicken tortilla soup was really tasty and seasoned perfectly. Our burger was okay cooked well and the fries were crispy. The bar and staff were very friendly and it seemed like a well-maintained place. You should give it a shot.

Came here for a drink at the bar and thought it was okay. The drink was standard and the atmosphere was pretty low key which is what we were looking for. The service didn’t completely wow me, but I thought our overall experience was fairly good.

Drinks were cold. Music was ok. Though never in my life have I seen a less appetizing caprese sandwich. It comes hot, melted cheese, on a Hamburger bun.

3 week update- So I replied to the rep that replied and never got a response back. Will update if I do.

I did happen to go back and and try out their new menu. Caprese sandwich is gone, not surprised. Instead they repurposing the ingredients a salad. Food was alright, my steak sandwich looked nothing like the picture on their website though.

I would have given a 3 or even 4 stars had it not been for the patron who was VERY overserved. At one point he attempted to stand up and he tipped forward and faceplanted into the concrete while holding a glass in his hand. The glass smashed into face and he began to bleed profusely. I am guessing the first aid kit was not readily accessible because staff took some time getting the supplies. No ambulance called but the guy had a bandage wrapped around his actively bleeding facial wound that his wife was tending to.

The guy was VERY visibly drunk even before this happened, I have no idea how this business could let that happen on their property.

Seated quickly, very casual and friendly. Server got to us quick!

Burgers were ok, chips were homemade and great! Fish and chips...ok, not good...just ok. Caesar salad was huge and delicious.
