Jaks Tap

Chicago's premier beer garden

  • 40 draft beers
  • Private parties
  • Award-winning ribs

Jaks Tap is Chicago's premier multi-tap restaurant & bar featuring 40 draught beers, great food, award-winning ribs and friendly neighborhood atmosphere. Jaks is also the perfect place for parties, meetings and events with three private rooms for groups of 10-250, terrific catering packages and a staff dedicated to your needs. Jaks is located in Chicago's West Loop neighborhood en route to the United Center and is a great place to frequent before or after a game. The menu features appetizers, gourmet pizzas, soups, salads, sandwiches, quesadillas, burritos and a signature barbecue section featuring baby back ribs, chops, chicken, beef brisket and pulled pork. The barbecue is smoked in a special combination of apple and hickory woods, and the meats are prepared with a special rub created by Jaks. Jaks Tap has a friendly atmosphere and a service mission that "Every guest leaves happy."

Editorial Review for Jaks Tap – by Jennifer Olvera

The Scene
Exposed timber, brick walls, an open floor plan and a comfortable, upscale pub feel attract neighborhood folks in search of a great suds selection. A three-sided fireplace, retro bar and better-than-average food menu add to the white-collar, 30-plus appeal. The chill feel--Muzak-propelled Sinatra and Marley are the backdrop for banal chatter--provides respite from the haughty and intense River North club scene.

The Draw
Affordable, award-winning ribs and an ever-evolving roster of 40 draft beers, some of them rare finds. Post-United Center sports or music fans get pumped up on Two Brothers pints and frozen raspberry-peach margaritas while munching on gumbo, pan-Asian chicken salad, and pico de gallo and chips. Heartier, Petron-shooting eaters dig into beer-battered fish-and-chips, California-style pizzas with silly names but interesting ingredients, and barbecue-smothered pork chop sandwiches.

Recently I've been on business in Chicago with my friends from USA Grant INC and we've stopped by Jaks Tap; a really good place with a nice service. I think we'll be going there some more when we'll have the time.

I used to work a block away from Jaks Tap and several co-workers and I would come here almost every other day after work. I highly recommend Jaks for all the overworked Exec's Both food and drink are great
