Credit: via Taffer's TavernJon Taffer, the ever-agitated host of reality series Bar Rescue, will open his full-service restaurant, Taffer’s Tavern, in Orlando in October. Taffer’s will serve up elevated comfort food and tavern classics, with menu items ranging from starters to small plates and entrees, plus cocktails. The bourbon was inspired by an episode of Bar Rescue and has become the foundation of Taffer’s cocktail program. Bar Rescue has even infamously tackled local spots like Copper Rocket in Maitland, Game Room & Social Club in downtown Orlando and Rockin’ Rhonda’s Lounge and Throwbacks in Sanford. Taffer’s Tavern first location opened in Atlanta in October 2020.
