We love the 05! Before the doors open and the first order of ribs hits the table, there is a quiet moment in the lounge that feels like home. Keeping the 05 alive is about preserving the spaces where people can actually connect. Our mission has always been to build a stronger and kinder community through good food and genuine hospitality. ❤️

Reminder: our Dine Out for the Northside Neighborhood Association is coming up Wednesday, July 22nd! Come out and support a great cause — see you there! ❤️

🍽️ Dine Out at The Village Tap for the Northside Neighborhood Association! JOIN US Wednesday, July 22nd!

Pull up a seat at The Village Tap and eat for a cause! On Wednesday, July 22nd, we're proud to be a partner location in our multi-location Dine Out event, and a portion of every sale goes toward supporting the Northside Neighborhood Association.

The NNA is the largest and one of the oldest neighborhood associations in Fort Wayne, located just northeast of downtown in the 46805 district. Their mission is to represent the residents, businesses, and visitors of the Northside Neighborhood by organizing, advocating for, and steering projects that improve and unite the community, from beautifying local streets and parks to supporting local businesses and hosting community events.

Prefer a different spot? You can also dine at ACME or El Azteca and still support the cause. But we'd love to see you here at The Village Tap! 🍻

So mark your calendars for Wednesday, July 22nd, grab your neighbors, and come dine with us. Every meal helps build a stronger, more connected Northside! ❤️
