We had the nicest time there on Friday! The service was prompt and friendly, and the menu had something for everyone in our party. Even the appetizers were unique and tasty…

Great dinner tonight at Eli’s Tavern. Hubby & I split the jalapeno popper app (a special), buffalo shrimp & ribs - all was yummy and appropriate temp with good service. First visit since the menu revamp and we’ll be back. (Thanks owners for an “attainable” menu and a place to get good pub/tavern food in Franklinton)
