So for the very first time in 6 months I visited The Tavern with my family for dinner and some gaming as a customer. I know I'm going to sound biased but The Tavern is a beautiful place.

The staff care so much and work so hard.

The food was amazing and I played my very first board game since starting the company, Thunder Road which was so much fun ( my 7 year old son Leo won!!)

The place was full of lovely fun customers and there was such a fun vibe in the air :)

We are 6 months in and I feel like we are really finding our grove!!

We have just got started!!! Thank you for being part of this amazing journey ♥️
