Apps and Snacks for Everyone

We've truly got something for everyone on our small plates menu. After all, what's dinner in Midtown without a mouth-watering selection of appetizers? McCray's Tavern brings all the classics to the table, including fresh wings, nachos piled high, and shareable flatbreads. Looking for some highlights?

  • Our buffalo chicken rolls are hands-down the most popular appetizer at McCray's Tavern. Hand-shredded chicken is drenched in housemade buffalo sauce before it's wrapped and rolled and deep fried crispy. Add our signature ranch sauce for dipping and it's no wonder this appetizer is a number one bestseller!
  • Make game night great with our 6th Street Nachos, featuring a tower of fresh tortilla chips topped with melty cheese, seasoned black beans, homemade pico, spicy jalapenos, and cool sour cream. Add guacamole, grilled chicken, or smoked brisket and make it a showstopper!
  • Everybody loves a good pretzel! Oversized, hot, crispy, and deliciously chewy, our Big A$$ homemade pretzel comes with queso for dipping and a spicy whole grain mustard to slather on to your heart’s delight.


More Food, More Friends!

Great for splitting, small plates make it easy to share, and easy to split the bill. Whether it’s game night or girls’ night, the best appetizers are big enough for everyone to get a bite. We recommend splitting onion rings, fried pickle spears, or our piled-high tavern chips, topped with a gorgonzola cream, crispy bacon, and cheese crumbles. Or, order everyone's favorite appetizer and get jumbo wings tossed in your choice of homemade sauces, like Sriracha honey, Lemon Pepper, Thai Chili, or Carolina Reaper.
