What People Are Saying About Red Coat Tavern

In Short – From the name, to the mannequin in 18th-century British military garb in the entrance, patrons know that this is a restaurant with a theme. The dimly-lit interior is relaxing and a great background for the classic food offerings. Pub comfort food is the staple; hamburgers, onion rings, fish and chips, sandwiches and prime rib. It's famous for its burgers and deservedly so, as the juicy, delicious original Red Coat special has a sizable following. –
Rude and anti-vegetarian

I just called the Red Coat Tavern to ask if they have veggie burgers since I am a vegetarian and the Red Coat had been recommended to me. The woman who answered the phone told me that they do not have veggie burgers although I could order rice. She was rude and unwilling to even pass on my request to the management telling me that not having veggie burgers has worked for 30 years and they were tired of people asking for them.
I have been to many other restaurants including chains like Red Robin and they bend over backwards to accommodate their customers (Boca or Gardenburger available). In fact, it's supposed to be all about service. Even Johnny Rockets offers Boca burger substitutions. The restaurants at Macy's also will bend over backwards to prepare meals for vegetarians.
Not so at the Red Coat. They are not interested in my business or the business of my friends who may eat burgers but will choose a restaurant that is customer-focused with options for me as well as them.
Two-thumbs down for the Red Coat. I have never before found a restaurant so unwilling and arrogant about not serving vegetarians something half-way decent. I felt disliked by the woman on the phone - for being willing to consider dining at the Red Coat! She even hung up on me. They must have so much business in this economy!
- Pros: reputation
- Cons: anti-vegetarian
Good burgers

Burgers are delicious. Love to dip my fries in the burger sauce. I don't enjoy how crowded it always is & how there is no comfortable place to wait.
- Pros: good burgers & fries
- Cons: always have to wait & seats are too close together
They make the best burgers in Michigan and better then mine!

You gotta come here and try the burgers and french onion soup the best stuff around! Dont waste your money going anywhere else to get a burger. And they have a large selction of imported microbrews! Soo good! The only place that was at the top that impressed me was a burger joint in tampa called square one burgers you can get the best nachos burgers and ahi tuna burgers there mmm to!
