The doors of Boulder Tap House on the frontage road along U.S. Highway 10 are officially closed after eight years of service to the Moorhead community. The restaurant announced its closure on December 10th, 2023, thanking its loyal patrons for their support throughout the years.
In a heartfelt message on social media, Boulder Tap House expressed their gratitude: “We want to thank our Moorhead community for letting us be here for the last 8 years! It comes with great sadness that we are announcing that we are closing our doors on December 10th.”
The restaurant’s closure comes as a loss to residents of Moorhead who enjoyed their delicious food, extensive selection of craft beers, and vibrant atmosphere. Boulder Tap House was known for its famous cheese curds, brown sugar cheddar burgers, and tequila lime tacos, all of which were favorites among the community.
While the Moorhead location may be gone, the legacy of Boulder Tap House lives on. The restaurant encourages customers to visit their other locations to continue enjoying their signature dishes and hospitality. The closest remaining location is in Alexandria, Minnesota.
