The fast-growing Tap Room just announced the opening date for its newest Long Island location, this one in Nassau County.

The gastropub/restaurant will be opening in Jericho at 1 Jericho Turnpike, about a mile north of the NYCB Theatre at Westbury, on Thursday, Dec. 14.

At about 4,500 square feet, it will be among the smaller locations in the Tap Room portfolio.

But the concept will remain precisely the same, along with the Saturday and Sunday brunches with bottomless mimosas, and trivia nights every Wednesday.

With big chains dominating that area around the mall, the owners are hoping this will be the community spot.

“That’s what we’re looking to provide,” Tap Room co-owner James Bonanno previously told GLI.

Bonanno and co-founder Dave Johnson got their start with a Tap Room location on West Main Street in Patchogue in 2011. Click here to read their entire background story in detail.

They are currently operating five in Patchogue, Bay Shore, Massapequa Park and Rockville Centre, with the last of those opening in December 2022 in Farmingdale. There are more in the works, including a location at Ronkonkoma’s new LIRR mixed-used development Station Yards.
