Tap 42 Craft Kitchen & Bar - Boca Raton

A long time favorite. Wonderful atmosphere with plenty of indoor, outdoor, and bar seating (both indoor and outdoor as well). Architecture is a nice mix of rustic and sleek with high ceilings and tons of natural lighting as well as mood lighting for the evenings. Beyond happy with: Crispy Calamari, Short Rib Beef Sliders, Shrimp Cocktail, Chopped Salad, Tuna Poke Salad, and The Drunken Goat. Service has always been great with fun loving bartenders. Definitely a go to for me!

Great bar, delicious food, wonderful local friendly atmosphere. On your own, then sit at the bar counter and take in the action. Don't forget to chat with your "neighbours" I had an excellent blond bear and delicious crispy chicken pieces with coleslaw and fries. A very generous portion for an entrée. There is plenty of near by parking making this an ideal place to visit when your are in the Boca Raton area. ....and remember they have happy hour too!

🍴Food Delivery Review🍴 My boyfriend and I were struggling to find something that interested us on DD for dinner. A few hours later, he decided on this place. We ordered the Wagyu Steak & Noodle Bowl; Crispy Asian Calamari Tower; and a Half Rack of Baby Back Ribs with a side of Roasted Brussels Sprouts. Mm-mm-mmm! It was all very tasty and the meat was especially cooked well - very tender. We were extremely satisfied with our order.

We ordered the prohibition burger and fries. The burgers were exactly as ordered...done medium well with crispy bacon. The fries were crispy and perfectly salted. Although, my husband thought they were too salty. The music was a touch too loud for a lunch crowd. Even my daughter commented on the level. The staff was pleasant and friendly. Enjoyable! We will be back.

A huge shoutout to Isabelle, she was absolutely fantastic! Her friendly demeanor and attentiveness made our dining experience so enjoyable. She was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, offered great recommendations, and ensured we had everything we needed throughout the meal. Truly went above and beyond!".

A huge thank you to Gabriel at Tap 42 in Boca for making my night. On the 10-year anniversary of my mom’s passing, he listened to my absolutely insane stories about her with genuine kindness and care — and then made the most perfect drink in her honor. His warmth and attention truly meant the world. Tap 42 has a gem behind the bar, and I’m so grateful I crossed paths with him tonight. 💙 Truly an awesome spot with an even better vibe! We spent our evening at the bar and had the best time—hands down, the bar staff made our night. They were fun, attentive, and just all-around amazing. While we didn’t eat, everything coming out of the kitchen looked incredible—huge portions, beautifully plated, and the aroma was mouthwatering. Can’t wait to come back for both the drinks and the food next time!

it was my first time coming and loved everything, we had thomas as our sever. he was very patient, attentive and super kind. definitely ask for him when coming.

My experience here at Tap 42 in Boca was beyond amazing. My Sever named Anthony, such an amazing soul & outstanding customer service. This was one of my favorite side dish that I ordered, which was the loaded mash potatoes. Definitely recommend coming here the atmosphere is phenomenal.

My friend and I dined outside on the patio. We had a small dog with us and the hostess mentioned the dog wasn't allowed on the chair. I informed her that we had a towel for the dog and that she's super small. We ended up putting the dog on the chair and every staff member that walked by absolutely loved it. It ended up not being an issue, but it was a bit of a strange encounter at first. For dinner, we ordered tuna tartar, a chicken Caesar wrap and sweet potato fried. We asked for all the food to come out at the same time, but that didn't happen. It was also really hard to hear because they were blasting music on the patio. The food itself was delicious! We also had good service. If the food wasn't so good, this would've been a three star review.

My wife and I went to Tap 42 one night for dinner while we were staying at the Marriott that's less than a 5min walk away. The ambiance was beautiful and versatile. There was an engagement party or wedding rehearsal dinner outside in the patio area and inside it was nice and cool with the games playing. We waited for about 10mins waiting for a table but it was worth it. Our server was well informed on the drink and food menu and gave some of his personal favorites and I took him up in his recommendations. The chicken and waffles were cooked perfectly. The chicken was well seasoned and the waffle wasn't overly sweet but gave you a good balance. Those wedges were so good and crispy that I couldn't finish all of my food due to eating those wedges first. I can't remember the name of the drink but it was so refreshing and light and it brought the entire meal together. When back in Boca I definitely will be stopping in again. Keep up the great work Tap 42!!!

Solid spot for the Happy Hour escapades. We showed up on a Monday at 5pm. The Monday special for $12 burgers caught our eyes. I started it off right with a Dirty Martini w/ bleu-cheese stuffed olives. After the drinks started kicking in, I went with the Drunken Goat -- a savory lamb burger topped with whipped goat cheese, arugula, onion marmalade, and dijonaise. Good burger -- I was less fond of the purple jam raspberry haze spread. I thought the sweetness of the jam clashed with the burger vibe... but you live, you learn. Next time, the Prohibition Burger looks like the solid winner. Great spot to unwind and wander. The calamari looked appetizing.

It's a me thing but the smell of truffle oil gives me a gag reflex. I've been to 3 Taps and they all smell the same. It's overwhelming to me. The restaurants are also usually warm in the summer. It's semi-open air but dress accordingly. I love a few Tap items that I order in but yesterday between the heat and smell I landed across the way at Rocco's. It wasn't amazing but the AC worked and the offer a Saturday happy hour at 3.

Tap42 is a solid social gathering spot where the menu is pub grub with some not so pub grub entrees. Parking was tight on a Friday night the week of Christmas but we circled around a few times and found a spot. Valet is also available but I didn't see the price. We ordered the Short rib sliders, 2 burgers, sweet potato fries and the chicken Parmesan rigatoni alla vodka sauce. The service friendly but a little slow. Everyone enjoyed their food. One of the burgers was supposed to be a smash burger but the burger wasn't "smashed" enough for a crispy texture. Overall this spot is a fun hangout with a group of friends and we would come back only if we are in the area.

We could eat here anytime of the week, we've always gotten great service. The burgers are amazing and the drink selection is huge! We prefer the Boca location over Coral Springs. It's also nice to sit outside when cooler out.

Came for a baby shower and the food was delicious. Had the calamari for the appetizer and the chicken tenders for lunch with a side salad and everything tasted so good and fresh (given this was a 90 person event)!

The restaurant I had a reservation for was closed and I chose Tap 42 by default and serendipity led me to an amazing Chicken Parm. I think Tap 42 is known for their burgers and beer and I suppose not much more but I opted for other menu items and the selections were mixed. However I ordered the Chicken Parm and it was surprisingly excellent and among the best I've had in South Florida. The chicken was much better quality than most restaurants and the oil in which it was fried had a cleaner taste and what was thankfully absent was the all too familiar bitter cheap oil taste. Other items were below average with a pretty awful Salmon and Tuna bowl and a dip appetizer that also was not good. The four star rating is because of the excellent Chicken Parm and also the nice and friendly service.

I'm a burger guy and when friends suggested going to Tap 42 in Boca on a Monday night for 1/2 price Prohibition burgers, I enthusiastically agreed. And I'm glad I did. We made reservations, which were needed as apparently many other people like a good burger deal. The restaurant has lots of covered outdoor seating and a welcoming vibe. The service was good. It's basically a gastropub with an extensive line-up of draft beer (yes, there really are 42 of them on tap according to our server). Since we arrived during happy hour (weekdays 4:00 - 7:00 pm), on this visit we indulged in some well-priced cocktails rather than the beer. The Prohibition burgers come with cheese, bacon and Tap 42's "secret sauce". Three of us had the burgers and they were all properly cooked per our specifications. I had the fries, which were relatively uninspiring. Our friends had the Caesar salad and the chopped salad, respectively. Both salads were impressively large portions for just a $1 upcharge. We appreciated the server telling us about the small upcharge at the time we ordered so there'd be no surprises when we got the bill. My wife had the spicy rigatoni pasta with vodka sauce, which she thoroughly enjoyed. Although this is normally a side item, she ordered a double portion and made a delicious meal of it. The spiciness was just right and the sauce was quite tasty. The only issue we had was a band playing in the courtyard next to Tap 42 for an event at a nearby restaurant. They were quite loud -- although the music was good -- which virtually eliminated our ability to have a conversation during dinner. Despite the loud band, our overall experience was positive. We'll be back for Prohibition burger Monday: Come for the burgers... stay for the beer (or cocktails)!

My favorite place to have Sunday brunch. The food is always great. The drinks are on point. I usually sit at the bar and the bartender is always attentive. There is always a dj playing the best music.

We went on a Saturday morning right at opening, and the service was great. The French toast was SO good!! We also had the guacamole and chips! They have a good kids menu as well as an outdoor seating area near a kind of courtyard space that is good if you have kids who want to walk around while waiting for food.

Boca Pub Crawl 3rd stop. This Tap42 location has a great vibe compared to other Tap42 locations. We met with our bartender Jade who was fun and provided us with an Aperol Spritz with a splash of guava. The wife said it was blissful. Her fervent presence and sheer diligence in the preparation of mixed drinks was commendable. Massive outside patio area to relax and mingle. Very clean bathroom too. Wonderful location and we will be back. 4.5 stars easily.

Delicious mocha espresso martini!!!! Plus the servers are amazing ask for Milli she is the best.

Tap is a great bar and restaurant located in the heart of a shopping center in Boca Raton. It's a very active family friendly scene with plenty to do. The food is really good definitely a step above the ordinary bar food. We had the street corn guacamole OUTSTANDING! Skirt steak comes with amazing plantains also super delicious, and the drink selections are great as well

My friend and I went for a Happy Hour and the food, drinks, ambiance and servers were above and beyond our expectations!!! We will definitely be back as regulars! The drinks were over the top! AP and Gabe were amazing !

Make a reservation first. I get it it's Saturday and you should always make a reservation any place you can. We're out of town and heard great things about this place so we just headed right over. We get to tap 42 and sit at the bar because it was a hour wait. While we're at the bar there are 7 empty tables inside ... several empty tables outside. We asked the hostess if it's possible to get a table since there were so many empty. They can't, they have to hold an empty table for a hour whether people show up or not! Wild. I get having a reservation is first serve however If there is an abundance you'd think it wouldn't matter. Food was ok and drinks were ok just really disappointing in the whole having to honor a hour wait for a reservation.

Randomly ended up having dinner here after not being able to get into Houston's and I'm SO glad we did. The food & drinks were all fantastic. I thought both the food and drink menu had such a great variety. I don't eat red meat and I got the beyond burger French dip. It was fantastic! I love when restaurants have good vegetarian options. I got the Maui Wowie Margarita, per the recommendation of my waiter, which was incredible. I'm also a huge fan of outdoor dining. Most of the tables here are outside (but covered) which was perfect. And the best for last...the strawberry shortcake tres leches....10/10. Can't wait to come back.

Very good happy hour . Friendly service Good value. Food was tasty.Will definitely go back

I was shocked by how good this spot was. I thought it was going to be like most boring fast casual but the food was amazing. The calamari in particular was great. The tuna tar tar, and crispy rice salmon was also great. Massive space - would want to come here to watch a football game sometime

So I try NOT to visit chain restaurants when traveling, but I made an exception and grabbed an outdoor high top at Tap 42. I dropped in about 530p on a Saturday (before the weekend craziness). Four peeps at that front couldn't seem to figure out where I should sit when I requested a high top outdoors. One hostess requested another to seat me--. And menus were dropped. Lost a star here. However, once seated, my server Tori was on it!! Super friendly with a 444 connection. Water, setups...and a smile. The spinach and artichoke dip was very tastey with a strong presence of garlic. Served with salsa and sour cream. Nice shareable appy. Nice drinks. No happy hour on Saturdays. A little pricey. (Spent $100 all in for an appt and 4 drinks) Great ambiance. Fun place to meet friends. And super friendly server!! Will I come back...prob yes!!

Not the best experience. Besides the mind-numbing acoustics, the waitress sucked! I was with a group of people for a birthday party; we had separate checks. We had a gift card and wanted to buy the Birthday Boy his meal and cocktail, along with my husband's and my drink. We gave the waitress a $100 gift card and told her to keep the change, thinking that was a generous tip, knowing we were with a big party. We left shortly thereafter. Not until the next day, did we find out the waitress did NOT put the Birthday Boy's tab with ours And he had to pay for his own meal and drink. Essentially we spent $100 for 2 drinks! Not Cool! Shady, Shabby waitress. Will never go back again.

The food here is SO GOOD. They changed the truffle mac and cheese and it's even better than before. One of the best mac and cheeses iv ever had. The grilled chicken avocado salad was very good too. It wasent drowned in dressing but it had the perfect amount. Had such a great fresh Clintro lime flavor. The dj here on Sundays is great and has such a great selection of songs and played a little bit of everything. If you don't like a loud dj then do not come here, at least on Sundays. The vibe here is just immaculate and the service from the hostess and also the waitress was stellar. Zero complaints. Side note- the bathrooms, at least the women's bathroom, was impeccably clean. The design of the bathroom was a dream with separate stalls with locking doors on each stall with no gaps. I have not one bad thing to say about this establishment.

We've only attempted takeout from Here twice after friends recommended Tap 42 based on in-restaurant experiences. One of our delivery orders was missing the chicken from The chicken lettuce wraps. The second attempt, the bread pudding did not come with any of the sauces or ice cream. Other menu options were decent. Take our service should be improved upon - extra attention to complete orders should be a priority as the restaurant can no longer make it right after the fact.

Short rib sliders are delish! I paired it with the Funky Buddha Floridian. Great service and excellent prices during happy hour. I highly recommend and will definitely be back.

Food: ok, but horrendously overpriced, even for town centre, Boca Raton, with one exception: the Tres Leches dessert is aMAzing Service: friendly as always in south Florida, but a bit lackluster in attention to detail, perfunctorily professional Ambiance: nice location, good inside/outside layout, but the tables are low for the chairs (interior chairs are VERY comfortable, though), and there is a weird foul smell permeating (bad cleaning solution, or dirty air ducts? can't tell) Price for quality: again, wayyyy too high Beers: 42 taps, but heavily biased toward big brewers who have purchased local prior "micro" brews, and the most unremarkable offerings from actual locals; also, their "nitro" pump is NOT actually nitro whatsoever, or is in dire need of service

Differentiating between and among sports bars can be a bit of a challenge. Tap 42, in Boca Raton, is a bit different from most. The space is airy and open, and part of the pub is entirely outdoors. There are many seating options - booths, stools and chairs. The food menu is interesting with some "not your usual"options. That said, none of my party was terribly adventurous: The burger, steak sandwich and ribs were all perfectly cooked and tasty. The chicken Lettuce Wraps were quite nice. The brunch drink special was a great option; $30 for unlimited drinks (albeit from a limited menu). The beer list was extensive. Our server, Angie, was wonderful - always on top of everything - without being in our face. My only negative was the "way too loud" music. I suspect if you are under 25, it might be enjoyable. Unfortunately, virtually no one seated inside fit that profile. Overall, it is a nice, attractive venue.

It was ok. Decided to try them out as my Uber eats credit was expiring at the end of the month and I have been wanting to try their Asian calamari since seeing the reviews and pictures posted here. The Asian calamari that everyone is praising was no better than calamari from other places I actually didn't care for the overly sweet soy based sauce. The steak sandwich I ordered rare was well well done with no pink left at all. Some salmon appetizer was ok, it in my opinion was also overcooked. I have never been there so maybe they don't do complementary bread but of all the American restaurants I got a take out from this is the only place that didn't give me complementary bread with my order.

My husband and I wanted to have a nice romantic dinner on a Thursday night. Instead, we got noisy birds and loud happy hour patrons. Not exactly the ambiance we were seeking. Fortunately, the food tasted good. We started with the spinach artichoke dip, which was plentiful and tasty. For entrees, we opted for the fried chicken salad and the chicken and waffles. The fried chicken on both dishes was very good.

This place has always delivered. Went here last night and didn't realize it was going to turn into my birthday celebration as well. But our server Brooke was amazing and the food as always was out of this work. The apps were so yummy. The Lamb burger was perfect and flavorful. We had the truffle fries and they had so much flavor and such a good size order they rocked. The salads and the steak wrap hit the spot. Had 8 of us and we all shared the food and it was amazing!!! Thank you for the wonderful evening.

So when we first arrived the service we received from the host horrible!!! But Nadine the waitress she picked up that slack for them right away. She was very friendly asked us if it was our first time and it was. So she explained a little about the drink menu their are called tap42 because they have 42 different beers on tap (something like that lol). So that was pretty cool because I never would have guessed that. We did a couple appetizers which were amazing. The truffle Mac and cheese I could not stop eating til it was finished. The chicken wings really really good loves the way the cook them. For me it was a little pricey but very nice place.

Decent food at high prices for what you get. We enjoyed the lunch. Service was prompt and efficient. But, I would say that the prices are high.

Caveat: The average patron Monday night had to be 40-50 years younger than I am (age 86) so Tap-42 was perhaps not the best fit for me. Good News: -The servers could not have been nicer or more helpful. -The Prohibition burgers were half price tonight and were perfectly cooked. - Very extensive beer selection. The Less Good news: - Time from ordering our meal to it being served was about 45 minutes - The french fries were cold (room temperature ). - $18.50 (the regular price) for a burger is getting a bit pricey - Valet parking almost a necessity Okay, but unlikely to return. I was happier at a Duffy's.

I went with my boyfriend, we had both servers Anthony and Jenna they were both exceptional, 10/10 food, and service was perfect. They were extremely accommodating to anything we needed and made our overall experience so amazing!

Tap 42 is one of my go-to restaurants for an early dinner! To start, we ate CRISPY ASIAN CALAMARI TOWER, which is so filling and can be shared between two people. For my main course BBQ Chicken Wings with French Fries-- delicious and well cooked. For a drink, I liked my froze. My husband ordered the New York Strip with mashed potatoes, which was very seasonless and bland. So it was just okay. He also drank a Mango mojito which tasted better than our dinner. Our waiter Jonathan was excellent and attentive. I will definitely return for their bottomless brunch and will skip the steak.

We went here with some friends. They do not have enough help to accommodate everyone. My husband ordered a beer from the bar. Waited for ever and then after he gave her his credit card she never came back. I had to go ask her for our card back. While I was talking with her we got an alert on our phone that a charge just went through. And then another charge went through!!! She could not find our card. Guess she gave it to someone else and they enjoyed drinks on us! She got the assistant manager who then got the manager. Lucky for us we can turn our card off from our phone. The manager did credit all the charges and gave us a gift card. But meanwhile our night was ruined. We didn't get to visit with our friends.

This place has a great vibe and the food is good. However, the service was not great. We were there for brunch and it ended up being almost a 3 hour ordeal. I ordered bottomless mimosas, and throughout the 3 hours I was only given 2. We had to go to the bar to order more water because our servers (there were supposedly 3 sharing our table) never returned. Like I stated, the food was delicious, but I was disappointed with the service.

Came for brunch and it was fantastic! The coconut margarita and hangover shots are sweet without being syrupy sweet. The avocado toast is 10/10. Kendra our server helped a lot with picking out the best food.

My parents brought me here for dinner on my trip to visit them. They got the burgers. They enjoyed their burgers as usual! My mom did say the Brussels weren't as crispy as usual but still enjoyable. I had the steak and plantains. It was enjoyable. the service was good. The environment is very loud. It is a pub like sports area so I don't say this as a complaint just more as an awareness comment.

Came for lunch the other day, started with the spicy salmon crispy rice and then had the chicken avocado salad both were delicious! The Star of my lunch was my server Kyndra! She answered every question I had and both the appetizer and salad were recommended by her! When I come back I'm deff requesting her as my server! 10/10 stars to KYNDRA!

The food is delicious and the restaurant ambiance itself is nice! This time I got a side of the truffle Mac and cheese and it was filling enough to eat as a meal- highly recommend if you're looking to save some money but still enjoy good food. For appetizers I recommend the street corn guac, we get it every time we go! The staff is always very friendly and accommodating, coming here is always an easy choice. Only note is there aren't many dessert options if you like to always finish a meal with something sweet.

The worst! Dirty, bad attitude, nobody cares. Strictly a bar scene. Had been looking forward to dinner because it has been there for several years. How that is possible I can't imagine.

We had an amazing experience! My wife Rachel and I thought the food was delicious, and our server Brooke made our night. She was super attentive and friendly, with us AND the rest of her many tables! We normally order delivery, but will definitely be coming back soon!

We recently came to this restaurant with our friends and the 4 of us had a wonderful experience. Our server Sarah was very knowledgeable about the menu and had good salad recommendations. The atmosphere was upbeat and enjoyable. We will be back soon!

In town visiting a friend and had a great dinner here. The crispy rice salmon appetizer was amazing. The rainbow roll bowl was yummy and my friend got the prohibition burger which was delicious as well. The service was great and our waiter was super friendly and gave us great recommendations. Will definitely have to come back to try the burrata chicken parm! The cocktails were delicious as well and well presented. I will definitely be back when I am in town again!

Went for dinner two days ago with my family at Boca Raton Tap42. Half-way through dinner I spotted a large, 2-3 inch cockroach traversing across the wall behind my girls. The roach was also seen by the next table over. The roach then went behind a wall decoration. The waiter was informed, and he sent over a manager who attempted to diffuse the situation by claiming that this must have been a palmetto bug. The manager then left. Shortly thereafter the roach reappeared causing our table and the next table to scramble away. The waiter came back over and simply shrugged his shoulders at the situation. No apology was offered and the manager never returned. We had eaten only 50% of our meals, losing our appetites after the roach appearance. The waiter brought over a check for the full amount of the dinner which was paid. No apology was offered and no appropriate adjustment of the bill was offered. Tap42 should be ashamed, if not closed down, by the presence of a roach in the middle of the restaurant. With all due respect to the manager, that was NO PALMETTO BUG. UGH! The situation was handled poorly by the staff.

Came here for happy hour at the bar. This location has a large outdoor seating area which was nice. The crispy Asian calamari is my favorite dish, I come to happy hour at this restaurant often just for that. The deals are good, and service was excellent at this location. Our bartender was very attentive and always made sure we were well taken care of.

We sat at the bar and the service was fast and regularly checked on us. Smash burger was perfect, and the beer selection was great.

Creative comfort food served in open setting with attentive service. Enjoyed the calamari appetizer and truffled corn guacamole. Both flavorful. Completed the experience with an entree of beef noodles. So thick and fresh.
