Kenosha Tap House

Stopped in for an afternoon treat and a treat we got! The cider and seltzer options will satisfy your palate! The beer choices covers all basis.

We were hoping for better food when we stopped for dinner. Cheese curds were over breaded - compared to the cheese inside the curd. Also they were chewy? My husband ordered fish and chips and the fish was akin to grocery store fish sticks. Fries were good though. I ordered the BBQ chicken flat bread and the flavor was good but center of the bread was mush and undercooked. We visited at 6:45 on a Friday night and it was dead. The kitchen closed at 8pm as well.

Love love love this place! First time coming here but I been to a couple of self-pour places. They had 60 different kinds of self pour options. Ended up getting a flight to sample different options. They had a wide variety of seltzers, beers, cocktails and wines. Food wise they didn't have many options ,still pretty good. We ended up getting the cheese curds which came with this mango jalapeno dip which was very delicious. We also got the beer battered fish fry which was good. We sat in the patio because it was a beautiful day to just drink and chill. I will for sure be coming back!

A flight of beer and a flight of wine with no explanation of what was purchased - $35. No way for maybe a pint of beer and a glass of wine- in Kenosha. And you serve yourself. Nice concept but should not be an excuse to overcharge.

My wife and I stopped in the Kenosha Tap House the afternoon of June 19th, 2023, and I'm glad we did. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. When we walked in we were immediately greeted by the manager. I knew it was relatively new, and when I inquired, the manager said they have been open for approximately two weeks. She then informed us the taps are self-serve. She gave us a quick tutorial and then handed each of us a fob. You swipe the fob to activate each tap of your choice. The fob tracks how many ounces you pour, and then you are charged at the end when you close out your bill. It is a fun concept that appears to be gaining popularity. The Kenosha Tap House has 45 taps. I'd guess approximately 30 taps offered beer, with the remainder offering a variety of beverages including: wine, ciders, hard seltzers, and even margaritas. We both enjoyed sampling a variety of drinks. It is nice that you can pour as small (or large) a drink as you want. Most of our pours ranged from 2 to 4 ounces. It is an attractive space with lots of large windows providing nice views of the harbor. They also have some outdoor seating. The staff was friendly, and gladly helped us (as we were new to the concept). This place offers food, but unfortunately, we ate lunch just before stopping-in; so this rating does not take food into consideration. Hopefully we will order some food next time. With most new establishments, there are typically a few bumps to iron out, but we didn't experience any issues here. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!

I wish I had something positive to say about this place. Aside from the very few members of the staff that they retained (and have now moved on) there is nothing here that is memorable, or even good. What these new owners did was take a well loved, community focused business and gutted it. Where once was a unique pub-like atmosphere now stands a Panera that serves beer. Did I say "serves beer"? They offer beer on a pour wall at HIDEIOUSLY marked-up prices. Pay by the ounce and your wallet dies by a thousand cuts. Sure the selection is pretty extensive, but each tap is outrageously overpriced. Chicago-pricing for serve yourself beer. Lovely. I've been in this new place where we were essentially the only customers in the joint, only to watch the "bartender" lay her head down on the bar and take a nap. Where the "servers" stood in the corner, trying not to be seen. Where customers walked up to the counter to pay or even have the concept of the place explained to them, only to be blown off by staff on their cell phones, retreating to the kitchen. Now, I know I'm biased. I loved Ashling's. I loved the place. I loved the people. It was an establishment that placed service at the forefront of your visit. The Tap House seems to see service as an afterthought. If you're not walking in from the boat docks with cash in hand, get ready to be ignored. I've not yet found a place in Kenosha to replace Ashling's, but I can tell you one thing, this ain't it.

Service was great. Food was ok. Pulled pork had no flavor, beef brisket was very fatty. Wings were good but I don't think we got "a pound"... burger was boring and dry. As for the beer... there has to be an allowance for foam as pretty much all pours except the stout were foam heavy. Probably paid $10 for foam.Most likely won't come back.

We have been here a few times since it's a cool concept and the food is good. You get a fob to then pour your own beer or wine. The first time we went we had a waiter take our order and bring our food. The second time we went we had to go up to the bar and order food. Not sure what was happening ? Maybe short Staff? Either way, worth a visit!

Fun atmosphere and good service. Great food... everything we've had has been excellent. Pork shank is delicious, burgers always good.

my fiancé and stopped in to Kenosha Tap Hose less then a week ago. When we walked in the young girl behind the bar did not greet us in any way just hastily asked if we were drinking and she needed our card to put on file. I was immediately turned off by this but i was hungry and wanted to try someplace new. while I was checking out the menu still undecided if I was going to stay and eat, the girl behind the counter asked three more times if we were going to be drinking and that she would need a card. after a few minutes I decided to give this already horrible customer service experience a try and eat here. we ordered our food and was given our fAB for the self pour drinks and self service food pick up then sent on our way.cliff note time. I will not be back, the owner was half drunk attempting to sing karaoke. we did not get a tour like we were supposed to and they had the time as the place was dead. the food was not even close to being worth what we paid for it. Drink prices weren't terrible but it would have benefited us to have the explanation of how it all worked. the positive thing I have to say about this place is they have good French fries. Oh and the pretzel bites are note worthy.also the DJ karaoke guy was pretty friendly and more helpful then the staff was.
