Ivy Tavern is a local's spot. Good news: you can be a local. And you and you and youuuuu. The Ivy is a big sports fan with lots of spirit. The inside bar is dark and comfortable, but be sure to saunter around to the back door for the big patio bar and courtyard. Don't let hot temperatures deter you, misters and fans keep your sweat chilled in the summer and it's shady. Service is fast and super friendly. And the bar food is much better than it should be. Wings, loaded potato skins and fried jalapeños are all solid choices, but the pizzas are one of the most popular options.
