Large groups / Parties/buyouts

While we do not take reservations, we are sometimes able to hold space Monday-Wednesday (with the occasional Thursday). But our hands are tied on the weekends (Friday-Sunday) when all seating areas are first come, first served.

We are not currently considering buyouts at this time.

If you’d like to bring a larger party to Mousetrap during the week by all means let us know via email. The taproom is one large open space with a few different seating sections: high-top tables, low-top tables, and a small banquette. We also have two outdoor spaces weather permitting; one in front, one in back.

On the weekends, with time and patience, your small group is likely to eventually find seating together, but we are unable to save space during our busiest days.

TO GO keg availability

We try to keep some sixtels around, ready to sell, see what’s currently available at the bottom of our Carry-Out Menu.
