THE OXFORD TAP - Oxford, MI

There were five of us on this sunny (and HOT) day. Myself, Miki Marcus, Freonn and Paul Jones with his dad, Dean. Freon and I arrived a bit early (I overestimated the driving time.) Oxford is a great town with a fantastic downtown district. We went in, go drinks and had a couple appitizers while we waited for the rest. The plase has a great 'irish pub' look to it, a great atmosphere, and is not overwhelmed with too many flat screen TVs. Out waitress was great as well. The guys showed up and we order. Nice menu with several varieties of burger. I order my usual, Freon ordered mini bar burgers, and Paul got one with a pretzel bun.
Well, my burger was a bit dry, but not bad. The bacon was think and the bun substantial (not ''wonder' bready) and with corn meal on top as opposed to sesame seeds, which I always like. But the surprise here were the fries. Excellent hand-cut fries that were perfectly cooked.

In the end, it was a fgood trip. I don't know if I would come out this far for their burgers alone, but may come to oxford for other things and then stop in. And if I do, it'll be on a Tuesday, as thats when they have their special of $3 burgers!

Pics to come.
