The Ultimate Hamburgers and Food

by bbiard

After we saw Hackney's On Harm on the Food Channel, we decided to try it on our next visit.

If you are looking for flash and glitz, keep driving, Chicago is full of over priced places.

If you are looking for absolutly fantastic burgers, steaks, onion loafs, etc., then take the time to print out a map and take the time to find them. We have been back many times over the years, and always look forward to our next visit before even leaving the diner table. The prime rib is worth the drive all by itself!

Even if you are not a big fan of Key Lime Pie, you've got to try theirs which is fantastic!

Everyone from Grandma and Grandpa to the smallest grandkids are welcome. Portions tend to be on the large size so if you leave hungry, don't blame them. Service is excellent, even on a Saturday night but expect to wait.

• Pros: Melt In Your Mouth Burgers
• Cons: Too Far Away to Visit Weekly

One bite of the Hackneyburger, and you'll know why this 60-year-old suburban joint is a local landmark.

In Short
An area staple since 1939, Hackney's elevates the hamburger into an art form: Big, meaty and tucked into a bun or two slices of dark rye, and topped with American, Swiss, cheddar or blue cheese. The brick-like, deep-fried Spanish onion loaf is addictive and perfect for sharing; butt steak, ribs and chicken are other options. For dessert, choose from cherry, Key lime or Snickers ice cream pie.

HANDS DOWN NO. 1

by olds1962

THE COMBINATION OF GREAT MEAT, DELICOUS BLACK BREAD AND GIANT SLICE OF BERMUDA ONION IS THE BEST BURGER OFFERING ANYWHERE! THE ONION RINGS ARE ALSO THE BEST!

Forget This Place!

by FSB

This is not the restaurant of years ago. The hamburger is plain and dull. If this place rates at 10 for food, then McDonald's has a rating off the scale.

Great memories

by askinner1980

I've only eaten there once, but the burgers are the best I've ever had. I have a fond memory of eating there with my grandma who told me that this was her large families special spot to eat when they got to dine out. She also told me that the food is just as good as it was when she was younger. I love it and am going to go back with grandma soon!

• Pros: menu selections, good parking, family atmosphere
