Tinkers Creek Tavern

Check out that side of mac and cheese.  Yes, I said side.  If the generous portion isn’t enough to entice you, then this should do the trick: it’s laced with bacon.

Tinkers Creek Tavern serves up flavorful American fare in an easy-going, casual setting that is off the beaten path.  Every delicious dish is served with upscale flair, yet diners can feel right at home in flip-flops and T-shirts — a perfect combination for a relaxing summer evening.

Folks, the food at Tinkers Creek Tavern is fantastic.  The Reuben (pictured) is a fistful of melt-in-your-mouth joy.  The Tavern’s “build a burger” feature lets diners customize their juicy, grilled-to-order Angus patties.  The mahi-mahi sandwich packs some punch with its mango habanero aioli.  And everything from the Tavern’s on-site smokehouse — including pulled pork, brisket, and ribs — is divine.

If you dine in, you’ve got pretty good odds of being seated near the restaurant’s floor-to-ceiling windows, which offer views of (you guessed it!) Tinkers Creek, a babbling brook that winds through the lush, woodsy outdoors.  The cobbled stone patio, popular in summer and fall, features seating overlooking the creek and a cozy fire pit for chilly evenings.

The full bar features standard suds and specialty drinks, and the service at this family-owned restaurant is friendly and fast.

The verdict?  Mikey likes it!
