From the moment we entered Park Lane Tavern on St. Patrick’s Day, we were astonished by the welcoming & thematic atmosphere, the sheer friendliness of the staff, and the Old Irish decor. We ordered the Colcannon - glazed corned beef, shredded cabbage over chive whipped potatoes - and it was the most satisfying and savory dish! I’m pretty sure I could eat that every day. The Jameson Irish Whiskey Bread Pudding was absolutely, delightfully decadent! It had a very rich flavor, but felt light enough to not make me worry about calories or carbs! I’ll definitely be headed there again next time I’m in town.

Girlfriend and I shared the bacon stuffed Gouda burger and the corned beef burger. Gouda burger was delicious and juicy, corned beef burger was also very good but a little messy. Tavern chips sounded a little odd with the bbq sauce but were very very good. Only reason for a knock on this place was they allowed an already intoxicated person to walk in, stop and talk loudly to each person he passed including us sitting at the table trying to eat. They then continued to serve him 3 alcoholic beverages in 20 minutes when he could barely walk already.

We came in for a quick drink and dessert and had a great experience. The Guinness Brownie was a little dry, but the drinks were great and we loved the vibe of the place. And really enjoyed our server (Kate) and the fun energy she brought to our visit there. She took great care of us and we left with smiles on our faces.

Definitely our new go-to place for work happy hours! This place is a gem! They have great indoor semi-private space and were exceptionally flexible when we asked to move the group to the outdoor patio because the weather was just so nice! Kaitlin (my original contact to plan the event) lived up to the word on the street as being easy to work with and very communicative. Rashita (spelling?) was THE BEST server ever! She was personable and responsive. We had a great end of year gathering for our group because of her! We'll be back again!

I strongly recommend this tavern. This was my husband and I fourth time at Park Lane. Each time, we try something different from the menu. There are so many entrees and beverages to choose from. The Bacon Stuffed Gouda Burger was incredible. The burger was cooked to perfection and topped with very delicious fixings such as the thick sliced bacon and onion straws. My husband enjoyed his schnitzel. The portions were huge. We couldn't eat everything there. Good thing we asked for a doggie bag so we could have room for dessert. I am definitely coming back again for the bread pudding. They are not shy with their portions. When every other restaurant in town is lowering the quality of their products, Park Lane is leading the pack and shouting quality matters. The quality of the food, service, and the atmosphere have my vote. They also have a great brew selection. If you aren't into beer, you have to try their Manhattan or Smoked Old Fashioned with your favorite bourbon.

I’ve eaten there a couple of times for lunch and it was amazing. One of the networking groups hosted an event there this week and it was so amazingly awesome. The food was excellent. Took a little doggy bag shared it with my stepmom yummy. Everyone was so polite, helpful, and quick to fulfill all the needs of such a big crowd. Close to 75 people at this event. Way to go what a great job everyone there at the pub!
