What a gem! The Tavern on Broadway is yet another business that is raising the tide on the downtown area. Our group spent the afternoon celebrating a birthday party and despite the multiple tables we needed and chaos with kids, the food was delicious and the service outstanding. They really went the extra mile. I will be back next time I am passing by! Thank you guys!!!
We ate there this evening. They had great hot cocoa for the Aurora Cocoa Crawl, and their classic burger and bacon jam burger were both delicious! Our server was super nice and helpful!Would definitely return.
We enjoy having a quick bite and a well made drink at the tavern on Broadway. Drinks are always excellent. Cheese curds are ok. Burger is premium pub patty, but well cooked and seasoned perfectly. Clam chowder is one of the better offerings in the area. Fair prices, awesome service and fast service if you are running a little late to the theater.
March 2024 update: it's been a year since I was here. Said we'd always come back if we're in town and we did. It's as perfect as remembered. Apparently we aren't the only ones that feel that way. 500 more likes on Facebook bar counter.Super fun place to eat and drink. Great people.The food was delicious! Best chili cheese burger ever. Potato skins top 5. Anything with the homemade Bacon Jam! We'll always find time to stop in anytime we are in town. Located in the heart of old downtown Aurora. Within walking distance of a few hotels and the casino.
Cat was absolutely amazing! Seriously nothing less than a perfect experience when visiting Aurora. Our entire group is very thankful to have had such an amazing experience and it couldn't have been without Cat! Thank you Tavern on Broadway! We will be back soon!
From the moment you step into the Tavern on Broadway, you're in for a treat. The ambiance is cozy, the service is prompt and friendly, and the burgers are to die for—the best in Aurora.But what truly steals the show is their incredible clam chowder: creamy, flavorful, and brimming with chunks of tender clams, it's a comforting delight that leaves you craving more. Plus, the creator of this masterpiece brought us this award-winning recipe straight from Boston.If you find yourself here, you'll enjoy not only a beautiful restaurant and delicious food, but also a spectacular view of the majestic Paramount Theater.
100% recommend, any day of the week. The food was elevated from what you'd expect at the price point. They have a good bar, great old fashioned, and a pretty good beer selection. Most importantly a fantastic staff. Go there.
