how so?  sauce?  cheese? toppings?  crust?  oven? all of the above?
Cracker thin crust, square cut, edge to edge toppings.

Regular pizza has a bready dough, pie cut, and a ring of crust around the edge that you hold onto while you are eating the part with the toppings.

In my 65 years of life I have never heard the term "tavern" pizza.  Pan, chicago, deep dish, new york, thin crust but never tavern

If Pizza Hut is your reference point, they periodically try their hand at the various alternate styles.

The Edge is their tavern cut



The Sicilian is their Detroit style



and the Big New Yorker is obviously their NY style. 



These aren't permanent menu items, but limited edition offers that they roll out from time to time.

and if all three styles have pepperoni as the single topping, they're very similar.
also, throw in their Pan pizza from back in the 80s - perhaps they still have it

rust is just that way of delivery regardless of shape IMO, The Old Chicago chain here has good (not great) pizza.  They offer 4 crusts - OC Thick, Ale Crust, Tavern Thin, & cauliflower 

Great pizza to me is more about the taste of sauce, the freshness & quality of the toppings, & taste of the crust.  Then if everything is in good balance and is cooked to the correct doneness.  (balance refers to not too much crust, not too much sauce, not too few toppings or too many.)

the shape of the crust and the thickness of the crust doesn't mean much to me.  I usually pick a thinner crust because I try to limit my carbs.  But, I've not tried cauliflower.

I never heard it until I moved down here, from people from elsewhere in the country. Chicagoans do not call it tavern - ever.

well if tavern style is the square cuts that is what I prefer.  I love the middle square pieces forget all that extra crust.
