The original no-attitude, everyone's-welcome Gayborhood bar. Great pub fare, killer roof deck, friendly staff, and lots of things going on — or, there will be once we all return to normal. Until then, enjoy the roof deck.

We had an awesome time at Tabu on 7/4. It was our first time going out during the pandemic so we weren’t sure what to expect. The staff were very helpful and attentive. They were all masked and cleaning in between serving customers. It was an absolutely wonderful experience. We will definitely be returning. Thanks for making us feel human again for a few hours, Tabu!
