O's Tap — Restaurant in West Chicago Township

Best neighborhood bar in the city! Drinks prices are great! Friendly bartenders, great down to earth bar patrons. Nice clean bar area, front patio, enclosed heated back patio AND outdoor back patio w fire places! Live music on weekends, 2 mic karaoke, new OLED TVs for watching sports. No food menu but many restaurants around. You can bring back food and enjoy or order food for delivery there. They're always grilling or BBQing (shrimp, burgers, hot dogs, brats n sausages) or serving pizzas or chicken on weekends FREE for bar patrons! They also host movie nights in the back patio during summer. The owner Jimmy is just an awesome dude. His brother Andy one of best guys I know and the life of the party there. Both lifelong Chicagoans who can share good ol Chicago history. Any given day there's a party being held there so it gets packed. So packed you wouldn't think this a neighborhood bar, more like a club! They have security to throw out all the riff raff and trouble makers so it's safe. If you don't feel like paying downtown prices to have a good time, stop by,...

Which honestly, in this neighborhood is an underrated quality for a bar. They also have live music and a good sized patio out back. Check it out if those are things that appeal to you in a neighborhood tavern. Looking to get over there for some football too...
