Tun Tavern Restaurant and Brewery is a popular Atlantic City brewpub enjoyed by patrons for their microbrews and domestic and imported beers.

It is Atlantic City's only restaurant and microbrewery in one, located a few blocks from the boardwalk, adjacent to the Atlantic City Convention Center and Sheraton Hotel, and across the street from the Atlantic City Rail Terminal

This current-day Tun Tavern is based on the legendary theme of the original circa 1685 Tun Tavern in Philadelphia frequented by George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin.

The food is decent tavern fare with a menu of steaks, burgers, seafood, and pasta.

Brewmaster Tim Kelly, committed to using Jersey-grown hops, has received acclaim for the Tim's Pumpkin Ale and Summer Wheat Beers (Hefeweiss).

They offer a nice flight/sampler that comes with five samples of 3 oz pours.

The service is friendly and responsive.

During the warmer months, Tun Tavern has outdoor seating.

There is free parking across the street with validation at the restaurant.

Tun Tavern is open seven/days/week for lunch and dinner.
