Taps The Valley - Fortitude Valley

Update: burgers still good, fried chicken servings now far smaller and the red eye gravy recipe not as good.

Another American themed bar with ridiculously priced hot dogs which I did not order ($13 is truly laughable). The weekly special, "Ode to Miss Peaches" was

The first thing to note is that Greaser is actually a bar that serves food as opposed to a restaurant.

Went here with no idea what the place was about. Serve your own beer whaaat? You prepay and get a token, you simply tap and pour ! Soo many selections - I stuck with the ginger beer (yes it was alcoholic) and it was delicious. The food was great too. We were in a group so we ordered the share plates and soooo many wings! Different flavours and they were amazing ! Beware of the hot ones. They ARE really HOT! The staff were great, friendly and did anything to help. Had fun with us too. Only downside is the bathroom isn't in the place you have to use the public toilet in the mall (it is right next to it) and with all that ginger beer - well you know. Oh and probably not the best place for wine drinkers, it's way more fun this way anyway !

At the beginning (about 3-4 months ago) we loved coming here, the wings were alright and cheap and were lathered in sauce (the sauce is really the best part) but about 1-2 months ago the wings started being real 50/50, some Wednesday's good, others just terrible. On top of that, in the past couple of weeks the bar staff have gone from being fairly average to horribly, even disgustingly rude and can never get the order right at the bar when we order and when they bring the food over. We either end up with several less boxes of wings, the wrong flavours or sometimes more boxes (obviously we aren't complaining but we are guessing that means other tables are missing out in place of it). In truth, particularly the female bar staff who work there honestly make you feel like you've done something wrong for ordering food, like they now have to actually do their job and it's such a huge deal to them. That's not really fair and after coming here and bringing all my friends and money to get wings we've decided not to return this week in favour for another Wings Wednesday offer someplace else. I wish we could have stayed because it's close to where I live and I didn't mind the taste but due to this we have all been really put off with the experience. I speak on behalf of our main wings crew which has 9 members and our extended crew which can be up to 15 or more. Sorry guys, you will and won't be missed.
