Tap 42 Craft Kitchen & Bar - Fort Lauderdale

Tap 42 has built a loyal following in Croissant Park, and it's easy to see why. This is contemporary American food built around a serious beer program, dozens of craft drafts deep, alongside a solid wine list and craft cocktails. The scene is polished and a bit trendy without feeling stuffy, which makes it work equally well for a business lunch, a group dinner, or a happy hour that runs 3 to 6 pm on weekdays with real discounts on beer, wine, spirits, and cocktails. The weekly promotions are a genuine draw. Monday brings a burger bash with $5 off the Prohibition, Big Smash, or Drunken Goat, each served with fries. Wednesday knocks $20 off any bottle of wine with an entree purchase. Weekends bring bottomless brunch, with $25 mimosas, Bloody Marys, and Andrews Avenue Lager from 11 am to 3 pm. It's the kind of lineup that rewards regulars who know the schedule. Service tends to draw praise, with staff frequently called attentive and knowledgeable, which helps smooth over the occasional inconsistency guests mention in food quality or seating comfort. Portions and classics like the burgers have their fans, though some longtime visitors feel quality has shifted over time. Still, between the drink specials, the multiple event spaces including a rooftop bar, and the reliably lively atmosphere, Tap 42 remains a dependable pick for groups and casual gatherings alike.
