ST. CHARLES – A St. Charles bar and grill has nearly doubled in size after a recent remodel, and with that expansion came more seating, more flat-screen televisions and a much larger tap beer selection.

Nathan Pauley, general manager at the Tap House Grill, 3341 W. Main St., said the bar and grill closed for a little more than two weeks to expand into about 1,500 square feet of space next door. The restaurant officially re-opened Nov. 30 after closing temporarily for the remodel.

“We opened on a Friday and we were packed wall to wall,” he said. “People were just waiting to come back in.”
