Flatbrook Tap House

Don't live near there but was out on my motorcycle. Small place, rustic inside. Beer was cold bar tender was great. I had a personal white pizza that was really tasty. The. Couple next to me had a meatball dish that looked and smelled delicious. I'll get a big meal next time.

Perhaps taking precedence over the actual nearby majestically flowing Flatbrook, the Flatbrook Tap House is the center of the Sportsmen’s Rod and Gun Club universe. Spirits are always high, as dining here traditionally takes place on the opening night of a great weekend. They serve up the best in food and drink in a space the size of your living room. It’s cozily adorned with a one of a kind wood trout carving behind the bar (which is on the back of the awesome sporty t-shirt you must get at least one of), and the best in fishing-bar memorabilia and holiday decorations. They have the holy grail of fishing themed bar mirrors, the long and tall Busch mirror listing great artwork of multiple trout species and other freshwater gamefish - which led me on a mission in search of one for over ten years before I finally was able to track one down in Ohio and ship it to Jersey…

But back to the food! The Tap House favorite is the calzone, available baked or fried; I like mine fried with pepperoni. But the baked Italian dishes, dinner specials, burgers, wings, fried veggie pub basket, and bar pies are all excellent. I also finally got around to trying the steak option, and was pleasantly surprised to find it a generous and tasty ribeye for the ridiculously affordable price. Check out the neon drink specials menu, or pay your respects to our dearly departed local legend and have a Vince Drink - a gin and tonic with muddled mint. If you’ve got room after all that, you’ve got options. There’s good cheesecake, carrot cake, and ice cream, or go for the comforting cold nostalgia of an ice cold birch beer float. The birch beer is on tap and crisp and sweet, and is a nice alternative if you feel like giving your liver a break. So take a trip down Chubby Lane, and see Elaine, and her very capable Taphouse crew. Tell ‘em Tommy Bahama sent ya.

Great place. We just grabbed lunch and some appetizers and a few beers. Nice tables service. Food was fantastic

Cozy place. Owned and run by a couple for twenty years. Excellent Italian food selections. I always get a pasta dish. Entrees come with a salad and garlic bread. Good and simple beer, wine, and spirits to choose. Come hungry.

Pizza is excellent. Love the sandwiches. The boneless wings are exceptional. Take out is great. Eat in is better. Nice selection of beer and spirits. Friendly staff. Clean location.
