A culinary love letter to Connecticut, and Black Rock specifically, Tautog Tavern is a classic New England pub that features a menu of carefully curated dishes and drinks (and check out the memorabilia on the walls for a local history lesson). Offering both small bites and full-sized entrees, their plates are all made from scratch and utilize fresh ingredients that are locally sourced whenever possible. Popular favorites include the deviled eggs, chorizo burger, pork belly and brussels sprouts, tavern hanger steak, and a meatloaf sandwich. They also serve mix-and-match sliders in varieties like bang bang shrimp, Philly, fried chicken with sriracha mayo, and grilled chicken with bacon and cheddar. Their full-service bar offers an assortment of local, domestic, and imported beer, as well as wine and cocktails, and happy hour specials are available on select food and drink items Monday through Friday. Local musicians are often performing at Tautog Tavern, so be sure to check out their events calendar to see who's coming to visit, and if you have a special occasion coming up, they are available to host and cater. A laid-back joint where everyone is welcome, Tautog Tavern invites you to unwind over some cold drinks and fresh, local bites.
