Started with a box of tags and a list of shops.
Five Star Tap began the way most small things do — one person, a box of tags, and a lot of walking into businesses to explain what they were for. Alex started it because he kept noticing the same gap: owners who did great work, knew reviews mattered, and had no comfortable way to ask.
It is still early. We are based in Putnam County, New York, and the shops we know best are the ones around here, in Westchester and over in Fairfield. But a tag works the same in Denver as it does in Brewster, so we ship anywhere in the country and set it up for you before it goes out.
That means when you email us, you are emailing the person who programmed your tag. For now, that is the whole company — and we think it shows in how quickly you get an answer.
