About this business
Tyler's Restaurant & Taproom has quite a bit of tasty items on the menu, including Fish Tacos made from beer-battered whitefish, House Smoked Ribs, and Chicken Fried Chicken which has a hand-breaded chicken breast over mashed potatoes and mustard greens over white gravy. This place also has reasonably priced Lunch Specials that are available until 5p. The Carolina Cuban with ham and pulled pork, Swiss cheese, mustard and pickles pressed on a griddle seems intriguing and well worth a whirl at that price.

Great after work place to just unwind – I have never tried their resturant, but their "speakeasy" (beer bar) is a great place to go after work. You can shoot some pool, sit on their couches and listen to the juke box, and try some of their 60 beers on tap. They also have a huge selection of bottled beers to try.
Great selection, snobby bartenders – I've been to Tyler's several times and while I love the selection and the atmosphere, the bartenders usually seem pretty snobby. It's nothing overtly snobby - they just act like they have more important things to do than serve you. It's a beer bar, not an upscale wine bar!
Decent place for beer and pool with friends – The speakeasy (back room) is a decent place to hang out, shoot some pool or play some Foos Ball. Sometimes it gets quite loud and crowded, especially right after a Bulls game. Lots of beer on tap. Beer selection spans the gamut from PBR/Miller Lite/etc to $20/bottle imports. Food is ok though overpriced. Tables are ok, house cues are pretty rough. Nice big TV for watching game in the corner. A decent place to hangout, but bring your own entertainment (i.e. group of friends).
Avoid if you think that an establishment should respect their customers – I went to Tyler's for a basketball game during the NCAA tournament. Just before the game started we were informed that the back room had been rented out for a private party and that we would have to leave at a time that would occur before the end of the game. I was a bit upset since no real efforts were made to accommodate us. We were told that we could move to the front of the house bar. We were understanding though since I am sure that the restaurant... read more
Great beer selection – The food is okay, but the garlic fries are great! The best part about this place is the great selection of beers from all over the place. And the bartenders know their stuff, so don't hesitate to ask them for a recommendation.
Sit at the bar -try the wings & nachos – I've had several entree items that I wouldn't order again. BUT, several times I've sat at the bar on the main dining room side and had very good wings. Get them plain with hot sauce on the side. The other night we got the nachos and it was HUGE plate, loaded with meat and cheeses. The bartenders on the main dining room side have always been polite and knowledgable esp. Leigh and the girl that works Fri. nites. Also had the Philly Chicken s'wich which was good.
Terrrible Food and Service – Prepare to wait a while for your food. When you get your food, don't expect it to be hot or tasty. Definitely don't get the burger. It tastes like mush and in fact so does the fries. If you must go, I'd recommend spending your money on beer instead.
Tyler's - Durham's great new place! – I have eaten at Tyler's twice in the past couple of weeks, and I have to say it is now my favorite all around restaurant in the Triangle. The menu is unique and plentiful. There are lots of interesting appetizers. So far I have loved the "fried dill chips with ranch sauce" and the triple dip platter. For the main meal I guess I am not qualified to comment on the menu since I had the "triple cheese burger" on both visits. It is so good. I know its just a cheeseburger, but it is "to die fo... read more
terrible service – There is one waiter who is at best, surly. He is actually intimidating and rude. One evening my friend returned her fish meal because it tasted like "mud"(see first review!) and aforementioned watier did not take it off the bill. When asked to remove the meal from the bill the waiter took off half even though she had not eaten the meal. On one occasion I have actually had to negotiate with the waiter so that he would serve us, even though the hostess had allowed us to sit in his section. In the bar the bee... read more
