On Tap is a great place to meet friends, eat a little, drink a little, and listen to music. The menu is similar to a pub menu with some interesting choices in addition to the typical burgers, steaks and fish and chips. Buffalo Chicken Salad is a great choice if you want a salad. Service is very good- the service people are quite attentive. In the summer time they have an outdoor patio which is a nice place to sit after work.

This is a popular place for the locals to go for a drink and/or dinner after work. When I went, there was a band playing who was good but a bit on the loud side so it was hard to talk with the friends I was there with.
