Dear Friends and Family,

It is with so much sadness that I make this announcement. Unfortunately, this pandemic has financially caught up to us and we have been forced to permanently close Big Head Tavern.

Our transition from Sam Bucco Bistro to Big Head Tavern has been a fun one and was a valiant effort. We’ve been lucky to meet as many people as we have over the last 2 1/2 years of operation. The hardest part of this is having to tell our staff and family.

It's a Party All Week at Your Neighborhood Tavern!

Take advantage of the last few weeks of comfortable temps and gorgeous evenings by joining us on our patio or outdoor deck with friends, great food, and ice cold drinks. You can't go wrong with an awesome lunch, festive Happy Hour or dinner with evening entertainment! Gather some friends and come in to Big Head Tavern this week! We'll see you soon.

Lunch, Entertainment & Masters Weekend at Big Head

Now that we turn our calendars to April, we know we'll soon be saying "So Long" to some of our seasonal guests. Before you head out, whenever that may be, stop in one more time to say hello. We truly appreciate everyone's support and wish you all a safe and happy summer! For those that are here for a while yet, or year around, get ready for another great week at your hometown Tavern! See you soon.
