The Tav on the Ave was opened on Mankato’s Madison Avenue in 1988 and became the first tavern in Mankato to offer Buffalo wings and today has served over five million buffalo wings. The Tav on the Ave also prides itself in signature burgers, sandwiches and coldest beer in town. The Tav on the Ave has also been reviewed as “The best sports bar in town”. The Tav’s great food and cold drinks makes it a great place to enjoy the game on one of its high definition, plasma screen TVs.
