About
Build and decorate your tavern, hire staff, stock your larder, meet the locals, be the boss and run the show! Whether you keep a cosy neighbourhood taphouse or a lean, mean gold-minting machine, the choices - and consequences - are yours.

Dozens of intertwined game systems create unpredictable emergent situations. Dirt, heat, noise, flammability, sickness and of course, a parade of colourful customers all keep the unexpected coming.

Today’s situation: Half of your staff are in bed with sleep-sickness. Orders are piling up and patrons’ tempers are getting heated. So is the tavern - because it’s on fire! A spark from a broken lantern landed on just the wrong patch of dirt with no one around to notice. Oops, perhaps it’s time to call the fire brigade...
An expansive narrative campaign lets you build taverns across a vibrant world full of your favourite fantasy cultures. Each new location brings fresh challenges and surprising stories. Meet immortal elementals, outwit halfling philosophers and aid a crazed orc inventor.

Experience a magical storybook fully-narrated by Steven Pacey. Encounter hundreds of bite-sized stories with a surprise at every turn. There’s always someone needing the guidance of a Tavern Keeper like you. What choices will you make?
Decorate every nook and hollow of your tavern to create everything from bustling taprooms to relaxing reading corners. Place and manipulate thousands of items anywhere with complete creative freedom and make the tavern of your dreams.

Go beyond decorating and become a master artisan by using Tavern Keeper’s powerful Design Mode to craft unique furnishings. Combine pieces, add magical effects, then share your creations with the Tavern Keeper community.

Play the single-player campaign your way with adjustable game mechanics and storyteller settings or play in Freeplay for a custom challenge. Pick Challenging and strategize over every decision, barely making it through each day, or play a Relaxed game running the tavern of your dreams without pressure. The choice is yours.
Made by Greenheart Games 💚 (Game Dev Tycoon), a tiny independent team, Tavern Keeper is a passion project more than a decade in the making. Every detail is handcrafted, from the art, sound, writing, animations, down to the 3D user interface and many quality-of-life features. We took no shortcuts to bring you an experience like no other.

[h1]Ein absolutes Meisterwerk![/h1] Für mich eines der besten Spiele, die ich je gespielt habe! Eine absolute Kaufempfehlung für jeden, der etwas mit dieser Art von Simulation anfangen kann. Das Spiel hat einen fantastischen Humor, besticht durch auffällig viel Liebe zum Detail und bietet deutlich mehr Tiefe, als man anfangs erwarten würde. Es ist gar nicht so leicht, seine Taverne wirklich im Griff zu haben! Aber genau der Versuch, dieses wuselige Chaos unter Kontrolle zu bringen, macht für mich den größten Suchtfaktor und Wiederspielwert aus. [h3]Kleine Anregungen und Wünsche für die Zukunft:[/h3] [list] [*][b]Design-Optionen[/b]: Ich würde gerne die Böden der einzelnen Räume umgestalten können. [*][b]Personal(-Management)[/b]: Wirklich gutes Personal ist aktuell kaum zu bekommen. Selbst im Endgame findet man zwar "goldenes" Personal, das dann aber oft ungeschickt, langsam oder schmutzig ist. Zudem hat man pro Fähigkeit drei Plätze für extra Perks, die aber eigentlich fast nie verfügbar sind. Eine Möglichkeit, um sein Personal selbst auszubilden, wäre hier mein größter Wunsch! Außerdem wäre es noch toll, Servicekräfte gezielt in Kellner und Barkeeper zu unterteilen. Auch bei den Reinigungskräften wünsche ich mir mehr Mikromanagement (z. B. den einen das Bodenwischen erlauben, den anderen verbieten). [*][b]Lagerung[/b]: Mehr/Bessere Möglichkeiten, den Lebensmittelverderb zu senken, würde ich mir noch wünschen! Spezielle Kühlräume oder vielleicht Keller wären hier eine tolle Ergänzung. [*][b]Platzmangel[/b]: Ich wünsche mir unbedingt mehr Platz zum Bauen! Eine zweite Etage würde sich hier sehr anbieten. [/list] Aber ganz ehrlich: Nichts davon trübt den Spielspaß auch nur im Geringsten! Wenn man sich die Roadmap des Spiels ansieht, merkt man, dass die Entwickler viele dieser Kritikpunkte eigentlich schon im Blick haben und sicher bald lösen werden. Spätestens zum Full-Release. Besonders auf das Update, welches sich auf's Personal fokussieren soll, freue ich mich am meisten! [b]Vielen Dank[/b] für dieses unfassbar gute Spiel und die zahlreichen Stunden Spaß (die sicher noch viel mehr werden)! ♡

This and every other Pro feature is free until October 20, 2026. A free account is all it takes.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Tabbed out to do something on my other screen. Going back to the game all I could see was a black screen and my save was lost. This is in alpha stage and not early access
great game
Que jogo charmoso!! Estou encantada com todo o cuidado aos detalhes que vão desde a UI até a jogabilidade e a história. Tem um pouquinho de inspiração dos jogos Two Point aqui que me faz amar ainda mais esse jogo!
Tavern Keeper is a wonderfully whimsical and charming game, and probably one of the better tavern sims I’ve played in terms of player freedom. With the various settings available, you can make the game as relaxing or as management-heavy as you want, which is great. The real highlight for me is the item workshop. If I’m playing a tavern sim, I want to actually build and decorate my tavern, and Tavern Keeper gives you a lot of freedom to do exactly that. There’s plenty of room to make the place feel like your own. And it’s still in Early Access, so there’s more to come. For what’s already here, I’m having a great time, and I’m looking forward to seeing how it develops.
This game immediately pulled me inside. Friendly music and a good story, fun to play and a time well spend.
Очень чиловая игра с примесью рпг состовляющей, жду полного выхода, хотелось бы интеграцию взаимодействия с приключенцами/авантюристами
This game has a lot of features I'm looking for.... management sim, tasks, quests, building. AND on top of that, it's whimsical and fantasy themed. So far, I'm enjoying the game very much. I've finished the first 3 scenarios, and they're coming out with another one soon. I'm not sure how much I'll enjoy replaying the scenarios long term, but I'm thinking about finding out sooner :D
Cute little game with a healthy mix of managing and decorating your fantasy tavern. Can't wait for the upcoming updates and to see how the game matures and develops!
大家可以看我的时间,这游戏大概也就只有15小时左右的游戏时间,游戏是个好游戏···但可玩度较低···勉强给我好评
