The best sports bar in town. It's a great atmosphere for hanging out with friends and a great place to catch a game. Love the plasma TV's.

I love this bar - The Tav has been in Mankato for like 20 years. Awesome food, awesome drinks. The Tav is the only place to catch the game!

ESPN SportsTravel writer, Ron Berler proclaims The Tav on the Ave is the "Best Sports Bar in Town" on his coverage of the Sports Destinations - NFL Training Camps in 2006.

I love that The Tav has Fat Tire Beer! This is my favorite and will be coming in more often. Great place to come after work and watch sports on TV.

Best Buffalo Wing EVAR!!

I just wanted to let you know that last night was the first time ever coming to the Tav and I was very impressed with the great service and great waitress(s) I had. Allie and Sam both did a excellent job on making my first trip to the Tav a great experience. Due to their great customer service, I'll be coming back to the Tav more often. Just wanted to let you know about their great services that Allie and Sam provided and if you could pass it on to them and thank them for making my first trip to the Tav a great experience.
