The take
The Take
The Vibe
Taxman CityWay reads like a downtown gastropub tuned to the rhythms of the district: craft-forward beers, a kitchen that punches above pub expectations, and a room that fills with energy on event nights. Located in the CityWay mixed-use development, it functions both as a neighborhood anchor and an opportunistic stop for hotel guests and arena attendees. The dining room trends toward louder, livelier service, where internal momentum builds as crowds arrive. It feels urban and convivial, built for groups and gatherings as much as for casual solo or paired visits, with the beer program central to the room’s identity.
Best For
This is a go-to for evenings when downtown is active — dinner service and event nights around Gainbridge Fieldhouse are especially lively. The layout and atmosphere reward diners who arrive with a bit of time to settle rather than those rushing in and out for a performance or tip-off. It works well for groups, post-game crowds, hotel guests looking for a convenient meal, and anyone seeking a robust beer-and-plate experience in a casual but craft-focused setting. Brunch and family outings are part of its existing programming, but the venue really comes alive at night.
Ordering Tips
Lean into the gastropub strengths: the menu’s signature beef burgers and Belgian frites are natural anchors, and the room’s craft-focused beer program is described as an equal partner to the kitchen — a beer to match the burger and fries is a sensible call. Given the often-high decibel level on event nights, arrive with time to settle and secure seating before the busiest stretches. If you’re coming from an arena event or staying nearby, expect a convivial, crowd-driven atmosphere and plan for relaxed, shareable dishes rather than a leisurely, quiet tasting.
