Great for craft beers

Come for the wings, stay for the party! Jake Melnick's Corner Tap has been a neighborhood favorite since opening its doors in 2002.

Great food and ambience. Beer selection is strong. Only thing for us was our server Paul…hard to find once he had all the food orders. He did mess up one entree (rang it in wrong).

The wings really good! We tried to do the big wing deal with a group, they would not allow us to mix and match boneless and bone in.
