Located in M+ Jing’an, KRU On Tap is a café by day, bistro and bar by night, serving Taiwanese food with a modern twist with draft cocktails and wine. It’s operated by The Flask Group, which has a proven track record of running some quality drinking establishments in Shanghai, including Botanist (cocktails), KRU (wine), and its namesake Flask (cocktails). The vibe is “low-key cool” with a light color scheme of pale wood tones and warm lighting. It’s a comfortable, airy dining room with a cozy bar counter, a standing bar area, and a spot of outdoor seating.

The food at KRU On Tap is mostly flame-grilled and features dishes that are heavily influenced by Taiwanese flavors. It is somewhat fusion, but I find it leans more Taiwanese than Western. Drinks on tap include cocktails, beer, and wine, all affordably priced. The draft cocktails were a highlight, most of which are easy drinking and low-ABV.

Dog-friendly inside.
