A landmark experience. A dining and drinking destination. A historic tradition. Since its inception, the Kaufman House has been a gathering place for travelers, neighbors and friends. Today, Kaufman Tavern continues and updates the tradition, providing a warm welcome, restorative libations and a fun, comfortable, exquisite dining experience. The food is the real star here: a top-notch, scratch-made, local, eco-friendly and--most importantly--delicious dining experience. Our menu reflects the best of the US and the bounty of our region. Cajun and creole. Northern and Southern. The East and West coasts and beyond. This is hand made, lovingly crafted, just plain good food. Kaufman Tavern is new American cuisine at its finest.

We have always enjoyed dining there and Alyssa was a great and attentive server . Hostess desk group needs a little more training … We were a little early and our table was empty,, but we stood in the hall for 20 min before they would seat us .. Also I addressed the Manager about seating us,,, she was going to check ,, but never had the courtesy to stop back and talk to me … I finally had to go back to the hostess desk to get seated ….

Went with our 11 year old grandson, who ordered the filet medium without the espresso rub and he loved it. Perfectly cooked. My halibut dinner was great. My husband ordered a chicken sandwich that he did not care for, a little too much breading for him but that may just be a personal taste. The calamari would have been better (for us) without the sweet chili sauce. Again, we should have ordered it without the sauce. It was perfectly done. Our server, Lacey could may have been better/nicer.
