The bartender knows her customers. She is also game to make a new drink if asked. She made an oatmeal cookie, in one shot glass when there were 3 or 4 different liquors in itso it would be affordable.

Gotta love Broadway Tap tacos! Great people, great place. Love Mary and Gary. Not only serving up good eats, they're also good for a conspiracy theory convo or some guidance through life's trials. It's a place where I always feel welcome.

This is my kinda place! Small town local bar with cold beer and fresh food. I got to know Mary not only as a bartender but as one of the owners and learned a little about Hamilton. If you're in the, I would highly recommend stopping by to say hello.

Several friends and I stopped in at 12:30am for soda's. They were SO welcoming and friendly! It was a nice, chill environment. The owner was happy to give us all the sodas we needed. She was very kind and sat, talking to us until closing time. She was very polite when it was time to leave. I loved the atmosphere. It was definitely a good hometown feel that I needed! Very cute place!! Small and cozy!

Great food! Lovely people…even the customers there were friendly. If you’re non-local I would say don’t judge a book by it’s cover! I was not so sure when I first walked in but the staff was so friendly I couldn’t leave. When I got my taco and chimichanga for a reasonable price I was glad we stayed! Fresh tasting and unique! The people there are very warm too. You feel like family there. We’ll definitely go back.

We were in Carthage on a Monday for other reasons, and needed to eat out before getting home to Macomb, but quite a few places were not open until Tues/Wed. We saw the reviews for the atmosphere and food - especially repeated references to TACOS and how great they are. It’s all true - the food is great and the calm atmosphere, friendly staff and locals all chatting. The food does taste and looks homemade too.

The absolute BEST tacos anywhere. These tacos are prepared in a unique and yummy fried taco shell and stuffed full of meat, cheese, lettuce and tomato. Supreme tacos add black olives and sour cream and all are served with homemade hot or mild sauce. Other items are offered on their menu such as burgers and tenderloins. This establishment resides in a former bank building and the kitchen is nestled into the old bank vault. Friendly service and great food since 1983.
