CRITICS REVIEWS

A gathering place: Tap Root Cafe packs them in for the food and the music

10/29/2010 - Anchorage Daily News - Riza Parsons

Tap Root was born on the south side in 2006, a fledgling little cafe that reflected the natural and organic inclinations of its owner, Rebecca Mohlman. She wanted a space where friends and family could form a community. Tap Root began to grow, first offering juices, then beer and wine, wholesome breakfasts and savory sandwiches. Along with meals, a slew of talented performers were a constant at the restaurant. (Full review)

Ya the service sucks. The place is alright though... blues central is better in my opinion. Taproot does have a decent selection of brews :)

It's a great place!!

I disagree with the post about bad service. Every time I've been to the Tap Root, or any one in my family has been there, we've had great friendly service. This is a place that's got delicious food, a great selection of brews and its very reasonably priced. The atmosphere is funky cool too.

Fire the servers...

This place has good beer and music, but that's about all you will enjoy. The service is the worst I have ever seen in any service oriented establishment. I think you would find friendlier more reliable service in a prison dining hall. I have been to the Tap Root 3 times and all three times I have ordered food and beer only to have to go to the bar and order again from them. Horrible service.
