“ I've been to tavern on the main multiple times. They have a lot of delicious french fries, and I am also a big fan of their house made veggie burger, which is made out of cauliflower and quinoa. Service is always great. :) ”
“ Loved it here. I went with a work group. This was actually my second time here. First time was back in 2022 for a Christmas party. Anyway, We participated in a bar crawl on 2/17/24 for Jess. It was nice music. They also did a raffle! The service was fast. The place was packed. I kept ordering the grapefruit basil martini aka the duchess. It was really good. The staff was polite and useful. They had great wings also. I'll be back to try those loaded waffle fries one day lol. ”
“ What a great spot to get some tasty food! Everything is cooked in front of you, service is nice! Place is roomy and feels spacious. It was busy on a weekday evening, but there was no wait to get seated. Their Reuben sandwich was amazing, so as gyro and coleslaw! Everything is fresh and delicious! Pita, fries - all tastes great! Will be coming back to this place! ”
“ This is a nice place in downtown Clawson. It's outdoor/patio seating area is nice for summer evenings. I love their burgers and Greek Gyros . The atmosphere is laidback and the scenery is ok since it's facing the south side of Main St. However, it's quiet and nice enough for friends and family interested in getting together to chat and grab a bite together. Bonus: customers may select to pay via their phone by scanning a code that's printed on the bill, which makes for faster payment processing time. Overall, the food and atmosphere is decent enough that I plan on going back with a group of friends. ”
“ I've been driving by this place for years, but finally had the opportunity to give it a try last weekend when we were catching a movie nearby. The place is quite large and much nicer inside than I expected it to be. The menu has a wide range of options, which was good, because my wife and i were in the mood for different types of food. I went for the meatball sub, which was quite tasty. She opted for the Tavern Salad, which she thoroughly enjoyed. The price was reasonable and you could pay by QR code on your phone, which I love! It was a chilly day, but we noticed that they have a huge outside eating area, so we we'll definitely be back when it warms up! ”
“ Looking for a place to eat in Clawson and I asked my friend who lives in Clawson where should we go and she suggested Tavern On the Main. The restaurant is at the tail end of the downtown Clawson area. The restaurant has its own private parking lot and it is free. There is a patio seating area and plenty of seating inside. Umbrellas are throughout the patio area to give relief from the sun. Walking into the restaurant smelt like an older building - musty kind of smell, but the inside is not old looking. The decor is very cute and updated but still has some older charm, like beams on the ceiling. The bathroom was tidy and also had a cute vanity and overall design. All of the staff were very friendly and our waitress was attentive. We were seated right away and sat out in the patio. I was impressed with the drink menu and the food prices were not too pricey. The menu was also a good size - not too big but not too small either with items to pick. I went with the appetizer coconut shrimp and added coleslaw/fries to it to make it a meal. I was happy with the shrimp and the dipping sauce was good but it was frozen - so not sure if the fridge was too cold or if the sauce is frozen? Coleslaw was fresh and fries were crunchy. My husband got a burger and he was happy with it - the cook of the burger was how he ordered it. I would recommend and I wish I lived closer because I would become a regular! ”
