I worked here for a few months as a second job over the summer, the training was very thorough and I really appreciated it. Management was very hands-on and as long as you hustled and worked hard it felt reciprocated by getting good sections and shifts.

I worked here full time for 2 years and it was easily the most chill yet structured restaurant workplace I’ve worked in. If you show up on time and work hard you will be rewarded. Shifts are fairly spread out and most people are full time now whic...

I worked here full time for 2 years and it was easily the most chill yet structured restaurant workplace I’ve worked in. If you show up on time and work hard you will be rewarded. Shifts are fairly spread out and most people are full time now which shows the management improvement. Always a busy location so consistent hours.

Horrible unnecessary gossip with their "shift leaders", superiority complex throughout the roof. no regard for risk of sun stroke, lack of support in all ends. their power shuts down way too often. although their GM is great, tap&barrel culture is...

Horrible unnecessary gossip with their "shift leaders", superiority complex throughout the roof. no regard for risk of sun stroke, lack of support in all ends. their power shuts down way too often. although their GM is great, tap&barrel culture is not it. average of 150-200 on a hot sunny day where you should be making 2-3 times that for the work you do.

I've worked for Tap off and on since 2015 and this past year it has really changed and become more "profit over people" working people until they pass out in the heat wave, under staffing so they can keep their labour low because of the min wage increase instead of head office increase the labour percentage. Managers can be clicky, you can advance in the company if you are friends with the managers. A lot of the managers who actually cared about the staff have left the pass few years because the company is all about profit and trying to open new locations. They kill you in the summer and then if you aren't tight with managers you get all on call shifts and get called off every time in the winter-instead of getting a seasonal lay off. Honestly better companies to work for you actually care about their staff.

I'm conflicted because I loved working here for a while. But some decisions made by head office are questionable and have left a sour taste in my mouth. Loyalty will get you nowhere here. But if you are looking for good co-workers, and working har...

I'm conflicted because I loved working here for a while. But some decisions made by head office are questionable and have left a sour taste in my mouth. Loyalty will get you nowhere here. But if you are looking for good co-workers, and working hard for pretty decent tips, it's not a bad place to work. If you expect communication and organization, it's not the place for you.
