Genial bar staff who always remember your name and a little bar counter which opens straight onto the street make this a popular spot for those looking to catch the latest sports with a drink or two on Parkhurst’s upmarket 4th Avenue. Describing itself as a ‘pint-sized pub’ the Taphouse is a somewhat calmer alternative to Parkhurst’s more infamous boozy hangouts, although it does suffer from its proximity to the somewhat messy Jolly Cool next door, that is a popular hangout with local teens.
