Our Story

In 2017 we took a hammer to an old Johnstown favorite to give it new life. We fought back and forth on the center bar that stood for 20 years until we finally won. We gutted the entire space and 8 months later with a new 5,000 lb. concert bar, 100 year old barn wood and Edison style smooth and warm lighting Tap 814 was born. We wanted a hang out for a broader audience. An appreciation for craft cocktails, unique beer, craft food, and a story.

We are on Instagram

Snowstorm in Johnstown.
National Beer Can Appreciation Day.

Seems like the universe made a decision for you.
When the weather shuts things down, we crack things open.
Cold outside. Colder beer.
No fuss. No frills. Just exactly what the day calls for.
If you’re venturing out — make it worth it.
If you’re already here — stay awhile.
❄️🍺

Drink smart. Drink local. Drink Safe.

We’ll see you tonight.

It’s cold. It’s gray.

Inside Tap814?
Warm pours. Low light. No rush.

No icebreakers.
No name tags.
No pretending you’re “just here with friends.”
Bite-Sized Conversations is a singles event for adults —
short conversations, intentional pacing, and enough structure to skip the awkward.
Connection without the chaos.
Conversation without the pressure.
We don’t make drinks for the algorithm.
We build them for people who know the difference.

Balanced. Intentional.
No shortcuts. No gimmicks.

This is what craft cocktails are supposed to feel like —
and why Tap814 isn’t interchangeable.

Take a seat. Let us handle the rest.

We’re Hiring Servers.
But let’s be clear — this isn’t just serving.
At Tap814, our servers are part of the sales team.
You’re guiding the experience, not just taking orders.
What that means here:
• Confidently selling cocktails, whiskey, and food
• Knowing the menu and owning it
• Reading the room and leading the guest experience
• Making recommendations that elevate the night for the guest
• Moving with purpose in a fast-paced, high-standard environment
This is for people who:
• Can talk flavor, not just food
• Understand upselling is service, not pressure
• Take pride in professionalism
• Want to make money by being good at what they do

If you’re looking for a place that treats servers like order takers —this isn’t it.

If you want to be part of a sharp, intentional team that values skill and confidence —
Tap814 might be your next move.

📍 Apply in person or email at contact@tap814.com
