Village Tavern
About
Village Tavern is an upbeat American tavern in downtown Salem, across from the Peabody Essex Museum. The menu sticks to classic American comfort food: burgers, wraps, hand-tossed pizza, wings and appetizers, and the burger has won the people’s vote for Salem’s number one burger eight years running. Three full-service bars, plush seating and a spacious patio give it room for lunch, dinner and late nights, and the beer list runs to about 75 domestic and craft options, including local drafts.
The Village works as much as an entertainment spot as a restaurant. An arcade room has games for all ages, and the Tap Room adds a bar and four Diamond tournament-style pool tables. On Friday and Saturday nights it turns into a dance spot with lights, sound and a DJ, and a late-night menu keeps food coming after 9 p.m. Private parties are a specialty, with build-your-own buffets and full off-site catering.
