Tara, was our server. She was so good. First time we ever tried it. I am so glad I did. Tried something different. I am so glad I did. Grilled tuna with black beans and rice. So tasty.
My partner and I decided to give this place a try. It was pretty much what we were expecting, which isnt necessarily a bad thing. I ordered the Black Bean Burger with the Baby House Salad and he ordered the BBQ Chicken and Smoked Gouda Flat Bread. Both items were served at a decent temperature and in satisfying portions. The burger was listed in the menu to have a Chipotle Ranch sauce, but that was forgotten/changed. Regardless, the food was good and we would try the place again.
Great service, awesome selection of food, music wasnt too loud, and they have ***HUMONGOUS *** slices of carrots cake that is absolutely delicious!!
Way overpriced for the area. The bartender lacks any sort of personality. Reminds me of a robot, you put the quarter in the slot and he responds. He definitely does not want to be there. The food was pretty good, we ordered a pita pizza, generous portion, and variety of different cheeses. Chicken tenders were more like popcorn shrimp, no meat, just fried skin. Clean, nice interior, but out of place for the area. Lets put it this way, we were there on a Friday night at 6PM, total of 10 people inside.
Shrimp wrap was delicious! Drinks are good. They even have fishbowls if you want a hangover ;) server was great as well!
I initially wanted to order the blackened mahi nahi tacos but I didnt take it leftovers with me while traveling in town. I ended up ordering the Steak and Ale Wedge. Best decision made.
Food was okay, drinks were better, and the customer service was phenomenal. Although they were short staffed they managed to take care of business and most importantly took care of us. Keep up to good work , I will be back soon!
What a pleasant surprise. First time I went here and so delicious. Thanks tap house grill team ill be back.
Food wasnt too bad. Beer selection was pretty good. The service was ok but it wasnt that busy, so kind of annoying for it to be as slow as it was. Otherwise, ok first impression of the place
I did not really care for tap House the first time I went there. However, this time the food and the service was much better.
This was our first time and it was just simply awesome. First, the atmosphere is perfect. Its got a cool, relaxed vibe with a staff who are surprisingly and honestly friendly in a way thats missing from so many places. You can listen to great music, including live, and watch the game in the background, and actually talk to the person sitting across the table from you without any effort. Then there is the food. I tried the basic burger and a salad. The food was ready in good time, along with everyone else at the table. It was hot and delicious, perfectly made. I said medium and it was litteraly just right. Bun was light and fluffy, burger wasnt greasy. I ate every bit of my food. The little details...Not pretentious, but hearty and simple yet perfectly done. Nice presentation. Good pickles. Onions cut just right. Everyone at the table agreed the food was perfect...surprisingly tasty. My wife says her mojito was done perfectly and we agreed to come back taking turns to explore the drink menu. We met Dave who came by to make sure everything was satisfactory. His crew here is top notch and honestly they treated us like we are family. I am very impressed. I could go on but the live music has started and its mesmerizing. I cant belive Hanover Park has a place like this. Well done Tap House Grill, well done;)
Many vegetarian options available. Great drink specials on the thursday night that we came. Great service and great food!!
Awesome bartender (Joe I think) who was quick, courteous and friendly. Food was really good and came out hot and fresh. Fish and chips was really tasty and piled on a mountain of fries, so many that I couldnt finish. Great selection of beers as well.
We went there twice so far and both times we had a great time. The food was awesome. We had the very veggie flatbread. Our server was very knowledgeable about the food and drinks. Overall, the service was very friendly and quick. Id definitely recommend this place. Great place for cold beer and to grab a bite.
Came here with my wife and kid. It was pretty dead when we came in. Otherwise the food was great. Our sever was awesome. The prices were decent but this is no Applebees or chilis, tap house grill is way better.
Its unfortunate that they didnt think to use the grocery store across the parking lot for bread for their bruschetta option. I was a little disappointed that they couldnt offer me that item.
Sara best bartender ever :D every drink she made for us was amazing !! great service
Felt like I was rushed by waiter to order each time he came to my table, even though the place was empty Thursday night. Food was terrible. I would not recommend.
Came in for the first time tonight to have dinner with my friend and her baby. Brian was our server and he was awesome. The food was excellent, I highly recommend the grilled chicken and wild mushroom wrap.
Absolutely terrible. Small portions and way overpriced. I ordered a chicken flatbread, it had so much pepper on it, it was inedible. My wife got a prime rib dip sandwich, and the horseradish was just white water. Totally NOT worth the money or the time. Never again.
Great cocktails and loved the grilled tuna. It was served over Cuban black beans and rice.
Always have a great experience coming here. Service and food are fantastic!
Place is good now that the same owners of half day own it. However food could use some work.
Very good. Nice and quiet, with music playing in the background. I like a jukebox, but if a place doesnt have one it is fine with me. I did not get food, but the patrons that did seemed to enjoy it. For the gamers, since they just got a license, they will not have machines for 6 to 9 months. The only knock is they are a bit pricey for this area.
They have great burgers here. My husband had the steak tacos and didnt like them. The steak had a lot of gristle.We went back, we both had burgers and we were completely satisfied.
Nice atmosphere, my husband and I went in to check the place out and have a cocktail. The bartenders where nice and inviting. The drinks we just were great! Ill definitely be back.
Clean, friendly staff. Wish it was a different location due to the parking lot and the spaces when leaving. But I side fantastic. Love the staff.
Garbage food! Over cooked deep fried chicken sandwich with cheese.DRY Pulled pork sandwich hiding under a huge pile of coleslaw.This was my second visit since the reopening.Dont waste your money on the food.Total joke from the previous owners.I wont be back especially at their prices!
Service was slow, but the food and drinks were great.
Burgers were good but pricey.
Nervous about going back since it’s not exactly cheap & service everywhere can be spotty due to staff shortages. Happy to say the food was fresh, drinks were great & server was very attentive! We will be back & make this a regular spot.
Overpriced wings (17.99) ( 6 wings) didn’t even taste good!My best recommendation just stay away from this place. There are better local bars close by like Mickeys. Much better prices, better wings better service.
Great service good menu and always great place for watching the games!!
Kristina is the best bartender in the business. Kind, funny, and extremely accommodating, will be visiting specifically for her wonderful service!
The food was good, the service was good, but a tad pricey for a sports bar. My only real complaint is that no one working there was wearing a mask..hostess, waitress, bartender and cooks were all maskless.
This has become my favorite small pub. The food is good and the atmosphere great. Easy to find. Just North of intersection of Barrington and Irving Park.
Went here the other day for the first time with family. Great food!!! Will definitely return for more great food and sports! Ps: the fries are to die for 😋😋😋----Update: Went back Monday with my boyfriend - when we walked in we were told to sit wherever. We wanted a booth - 3 tables were dirty - 1 of them was the only open booth. I tried to get someones attention to ask if they could clean it so we could sit there and we were ignored 5x before we gave up and sat somewhere else. Note: They were not busy; maybe 6-7 tables occupied.After we sat down the waitress was crass/rude, her explanation of specials seemed as though we were bothering her with the question.The bartender was helpful and much more polite, but the entire time we felt like our service was an inconvenience to them.Food was so so this time around. Fries were great.Im disappointed because my first experience was great and I was excited to share it. Very disappointed with the turn out the second time around.
Good steak ans food good friendly waiters and overall a good experience. They also got good fries
Great place with fresh food and different beer to try!
Our waiter was tentative, great food and atmosphere..love how they dont have typical bar food. Had the grilles chicken mushroom wrsp6!!! Awesome
I frequent this excellent place often as I love the good mood that is characterizes this restaurant. The team is extremely loving and well trained. The service is extremely rapid. Needless to say, the food they serve is outstanding. I ate there often and I was always delighted. The payment is decent. I suggest this restaurant to to everybody.
Restaurant is on the right track....a few more tweaks and it will be great. Service is a little hit or miss, food was good. I wish they would of kept their fried pickles but the buffalo cauliflower was good, not very spicy but you can get it spicy as well. Menu has changed a few times since they have opened. But overall good food
The food was delicious! The drinks were great! The service amazing! And to top it off discount for being an educator!!
Food tasted horrible, way too expensive for tiny portions. Tries too hard for the expensive dinner prices with cheap pub meals. Going to avoid for the rest of my life, recommend you do the same.
Went here with the wife..... sat at the table for 20 minutes and no server.. Asked a hostess that walked by if we had a server and she said yes and just walked back to her station and didnt talk to anyone to find our server. Took 10 minutes after we ordered 2 draft beers ...to receive them.. We noticed several tables waiting for service. The food was decent. It also took a long time to be served. we only had the one drink each (never asked if we wanted another until we were finished eating). The place is nice and the beers are good. Food is good....but the service is terrible and will be their downfall if they do not fix it. I recommend this place only if you have unlimited time to spend.
Food was awesome. HUGE servings. I recommend the BLT and the cheese steak sandwiches. Bacon on BLT is not salty lime some places and cheese steak sandwich was very good. Waitress was patient and knowledgeable about the menu. It was clean inside and out. Prices were very reasonable.Will go back.
Nice ambiance. Good beer selection a bit pricey $6-7 for craft pints. Shrimp tacos were fantastic. Flat bread was good. Prime rib sliders are delicious but super tiny. Kit Kat desert was great and plenty for 3 people to share. Service was so so. Bathroom had water/pee all over the floor and sink tops.
3 stars for average. I think the best thing about the place was our server was attentive. But the food was standard, pretty disappointing that I couldn’t get my Kobe sliders cooked medium. The wings and fries were good though. The draft beer list didn’t wow my fiancée or me. For a tap house, I wasn’t expecting to see a bunch of brews I already knew, nor do I feel generic beer like Modelo should be on draft instead of fun craft beers.
Everyones drink was served in a short curvature glass and Im not quite sure if it was appropriate nor complimentary to the order. I had an IPA and someone else had ordered a blue moon. I have never received it in a glass like that. Would be interested in the reasoning. Love the live music, the service was ok. And I enjoyed the food too.
Very nice menu offering. Large beer selection. Duck bacon , brie and apple sandwich was really good. Duck was tender and not dry as it can be if not cooked properly. Service was prompt and friendly. Price for food was about right. Burger was cooked perfectly medium rare as ordered.
Very good both food and service
Great place! Nicely decorated, very welcoming establishment, great food!Has a semi-private room on the far side. Im told that will soon get a wall to further separate it from the noise & activity of the bar. Nice owner. Great guy. (its great to see the old Bakers Square building, which has been vacant forever. lol )
Wonderful People and Delicious food. They were missing some ingredients because recently reopened but deserve a good review for doing there best in trying timesThanks for many good experiences
I have been here twice. The first time the food and service was excellent. The second time I went the food was ok, the service was not good. The server was not happy to be there or answer questions about their new menu. So I will give it one more shot and let ya know how it went. Went back and service was awful, food was OK at best. Its a pretty new place but it seems like an old joint that had its heyday and now its just coasting on autopilot. I have only been there for lunch and it is barely staffed. I do have to say the weekday bartender is a very nice woman who seems to know her stuff. She is good with people and is the only person that seems to care and do her best. Such a shame because it could be a great place. I give it another year bro it closes.
Went on 10/15 for 3 dollar burgers for customer appreciation week. Fantastic burgers even at regular prices, but at 3 dollars it was out of this world. Dave the manager is always friendly and makes you feel like your family.
The food here is great, but the service has continued to go downhill and is now terrible. I just went here for lunch, within the first 2 minutes of us sitting down the waitress asked if we were ready to order twice, we hadnt even opened the menus yet. Then she disappeared for over 15 minutes before coming back to take our order. I tried catching her eye, but she completely ignored us. We placed our order, along with a separate order to take to go. The food took about 20 minutes to come out. Shrimp tacos, a chicken ceasar salad and fries, nothing with special requests. She disappears again, never checking on us to see if we needed anything or make sure our orders were correct. She comes back another 15 minutes later, I ask her if she put in the pretzel to go order, of course she did not. So that took another 15 minutes. In the bathroom 2 of the 3 stalls had no toilet paper, there were no paper towels, and no soap. We let the bartender know, he didnt seem to care. Keep in mind the whole time we were at the restaurant there were maybe 5 tables of 2-4 in the entire place. Its unfortunate this place has gone completely downhill and I will not be returning.
Good to very good food - cheese curds were great, but only decent sauces, mac and cheese was pretty good. service was terrible, it was NYE but the place wasnt terribly busy - app came up before drinks, had to ask for silverware, refills werent offered and plates sat at the table with multiple passes. great price on Tuesdays with a $4 quality burger. been twice now, food is worth it, despite the service.
This place is great. We end up here at least once a month. Drinks are great food is amazing and good atmosphere. They have heaters all around in there outdoor seating. And they work great! Definitely check this place out.
Good beer selection at reasonable prices. The food is ok, but not great. There are too many TVs playing sports. I realize that the majority rules in that respect, but I dont have to like it.It is right next to Tonys supermarket, so I like to eat here before going grocery shopping.
This place is my favored. I go to a lot of restaurants but to this one I constantly return again and again. The team is very affectionate and the cooking they place on your table is so good. I never miss an opportunity to have a good dinner here. I recommend this place with pleasure.
The food was great, the place was very clean, the prices were fair, and the service was excellent.We went with our 19months old, who could eat a hamburger slider, since theres not a child menu available. However, that was not a problem for us. Definitely coming back to this place.* Update - 4/5weeks after the original review: they now offer a child menu with crayons!! Wonderful!! Thanks!!
I love this place .. The food and service was awesome! Kristina the bar manager took such great care of us.. I highly recommend coming here
The food is always consistent. Our favorite waitress is Erin. Met the GM today, Dave and he was great too. Definitely somewhere we will likely go more often, cant beat good food and service at the same place!
Creative menu, good, fast service, and a whole lot of craft beers to choose from, we really enjoyed our visit. They have an extensive selection of vegetarian options, too! Kind of loud, with polished concrete floors. Ive already recommend that friends check it out.
Another great Tap House Grill. Staff was friendly and prompt with service, food was delicious and the cocktails were nice and strong
Been there three times now. Food is outstanding. The calamari flatbread, weird as it sounds, is truly wonderful. Also had a burger and it was good and the brioche bun was great. Stated like it just came out of the bakers oven. Highly recommended.
Went on a Wednesday, half price tacos, Ahi tuna taco, awesome. Service was fine, server was friendly but not overly so. Only checked on us a few times which was ok. Atmosphere was like a bar without being loud and obnoxious and was lit better. Extensive menu but not many dessert choices. Tried the Homemade Kit Kat.....I will pass next time. Over all I liked it and most likely will visit again.
Two days ago was our first time we came to that restaurant. But It is absolutely not the last time. We enjoyed the evening a lot with the courteous service, with the magnificent cuisine and booze and with the modest price. We will no doubt go back there again.
I went with some friends here for a good night out. First off impressions were great. Everything about the menu and venue was very attractive and appealing. A little on the smaller side, but still an outstanding presentation. You could seat yourself too. It took a while for someone to come to us, but we didnt mind. The owner came to our table and introduced himself, which was really nice! Staff seemed professional and willing to serve us. There were some cons though. We ordered the, Loaded Tator Tachos, as an appetizer and although there was a good amount of flavor, it wasnt something I would order again. Presentation was slightly mediocre, and not anywhere close to the photo. The food was average as well. I ordered a burger medium and received it well done. My friend also received his burger well done when he ordered medium and it was slightly soggy. The food was good, but not great, and could definitely be worked on! I would still give this restaurant time to grow though and expand. Drinks were the best part. Diverse and wide menu of drinks, and definitely creative as they state in their motto! You might have to wait a while for them though.
What an increadeble place to enjoy a meal and a drink. The servers are unbelievable...always smiling and helpful and eager to make you feel welcome. The food is assaum...regardless what you order. Everything is fresh tasting and cooked to order. You must try the Tap house burger...moist and so flavorful...absolutely must give this place a try...great beer selection. And the mixed drinks are out of this world
I went to Tap House Grill as part of a Paint and Sip activity. While I did not eat anything the beverage I had was very good. I also had the chance to see what meals people at my table ordered and they all smelled and looked really good. Definitely a place I want to go back and try.
We went (4 of us)about 6:00 pm on Christmas Eve. Only 6-7 other parties of 2-3 adults. Only 1 bartender, who was also the GM, 2 cooks and 1 new trainee. It took us over an hour to get our food. My husband ordered a club sandwich in which the bacon was raw. He ended up returning it with no replacement because it took so long the 1st time to get our food. The 2 people working in the kitchen was more concerned that there was no more customers after 7 oclock and wanted to get out of there but the general manager kept trying to tell them that the orders they had were from 6 oclock and were behind. The general manager who seemed to be on top of everything and had his hands wherever he was needed, even in the back cooking food. People were waiting for long periods of time for their checks, for their additional drinks and the general manager did tell us that he called the owner & he tried to call several other people in for help and not one person responded to him. I sent a message to the contact us on their website to management that night stating my concern and that it was our 1st time in there and we were very disappointed and got no response from him whatsoever. This will be the only time that I will visit taphouse as I will not be back. The general manager was kind enough to comp everyone in the restaurant their meal and we did get $50 off of our bill and only paid for 1 round of drinks but still for management to not reach out and at the very least apologize and try to keep a customer and have us come in and give it 1 more try doesnt say a lot about him or his business. Plenty of other ale houses in the area for us to go to!!
I had high hopes for this place since its so close to my house. But my family and I were highly disappointed. You would think they would try to have the best food and service being their first week but that was not the case. Service was extremely slow and the place was not busy at all at 10-11 p.m. Then my dads fries were so stale, definitely old fries just warmed up. And the avocado on ny mom sandwich was black. Waitress barely checked up on us, and they have daily deals online on half off apps but apparently not valid until October at this location (which isnt listed on their website). Maybe things will improve but as of now I was not pleased with my experience here.
This location was really disappointing. I was actually shocked, based on my experience at other Tap House Grill locations.The restaurant is dirty. The windows are especially noticable.The place smells like cooking oil. Funky, in a bad way.The service was good - no real complaints there, and the food was ok.Someone vomited all over the bathroom last night, and whole that is not the fault of the restaurant, I felt it took a while for it to be cleaned up.On our way out, one of the exit doors is broken. This restaurant is not that old, and I feel that may be a safety hazard.I wont return to this location.
The service is hit or miss. Some servers are great and others have zero personality. The manager (a guy who I assumed to be the manager) was incredibly friendly and helpful when my food order was wrong. But the food is very mediocre.
My company ordered food for a meeting. Six meals total. When I went in to pick our food up. I waited about 5 minutes before someone acknowledged me, but even then it was just a smile while walking by. I walked up to the bar to let them know I was picking up an order and it took another 10 minutes before the bartender came back to ask me if I needed anything, again I explained I was picking up an order. After getting our order and driving just down Barrington to my meeting, 5 of the 6 meals were cold and the food didn’t taste that great. Personally I had the prime dip sandwich and there was a very small portion of “meat”. What was mostly in that portion was fat. Now this was all within 2 months of opening and I’m hoping the servers and bartender have gotten better, by as for the food, I don’t think they’ve changed how they cook it. Try at your own risk!
Delicious!!! Great atmosphere! Good music, tons of tvs. Got offered a desert on the house. Snickers parfait, amazing! Burger was great! Chicken and rice soup was fantastic! Fries were cooked to perfection! Emmunal was Very welcoming and friendly!! I will definitely be coming back here soon to try something new!!
If I could give this place a 0 I would. I went in right before the dinner rush. It was not busy by any means. There is self seating so I helped myself to a table. While I was sitting there waiting to be greeted, there were 3 groups of people that came in within 10 minutes. Each and every one of them was greeted and received menus by the servers except me. After waiting over 10 minutes with no menu, drinks or utensils, I just got up and left. Lets just say I will never go back there again.
Food was pretty good here. Service wasnt near as good. It was triva night, but still not that busy. There was probably less than 50% occupancy, but it took quite awhile to have anyone take our order, and awhile for the food to arrive. Food did taste really good, and everyone was friendly.
Being a new restaurant, it has some nuances of a new place, but it has potential to be great. Service was a bit slow. Wait staff was not very familiar with the menu. Food was slightly above average quality, and they had many unique menu items. Once they polish the rough edges, I think this could be a great addition to the local restaurant options.
The food was pretty good, but it took almost 45 minutes to receive it. My server was bartending and waiting on tables at the same time, so no refill on my beverage until I got ready to leave! Seems to be more catered to the regulars versus new comers as well!
Went there for lunch about 1 on a week day. Veggie entree was very good. We sat at the bar but the bartender didnt smile the entire time, honestly he was not very personable at all. No lunch specials.
Food is pretty good and the servers are nice and attentive. Their marketing of “over 40 beers on tap” is complete BS though. Sure they have tons of taps showing but I’ve been here 3 times so far and out of the 10ish beers I’ve asked for 6-7 were currently “out”. I like to try different random beers so i get some might be out but they didn’t even have Blue Moon.... ON A FRIDAY NIGHT! Come on management running out of fairly popular beer such as blue moon on a Friday can not be good for business.
Been here twice now including today and wasnt impressed either time. I ordered an hour ahead today to have it ready at 530 and when I got there it wasnt even ready so I had to wait 10 minutes just for them to make it. Last time I had a burger and Ive had better burgers at culvers. I wouldnt spend money at this place, only reason Ive gotten food from there is I had a free gift card given to me.
Fast server introduction with menus. Took the beer recommendation. The wife ordered what turned out to be the biggest BLT sandwich piled with bacon we have ever seen. I ordered a flat bread very good. Server was available and prompt. Was too full for desert but the cheese cake and brownie will be on our radar for our next visit. Dont forget the cheese curds they arent frozen they buy the curd and batter dip before frying.
Three times Ive been here. 1st time: Burger & fries. Stellar. 2nd time: Turkey burger bowl, habanero wings, totchos. Good service, good food, got sick after. 3rd time: Turkey bacon ranch unwrap, exotic wings. Decent service, what to me looked and tasted like frozen and microwaved Brussels sprouts (the server apologized but still charged me the $1 upgrade to my side that I didnt even know about!), gastro intestinal distress. I dont think Im risking it again.
I just came to pick up an uber eats order and the staff forgot to put in the order so I had to wait like 15 minutes which is fine but I just got the general sense that they didnt really care. Didnt offer me water or anything. And then when the order was ready it was just sitting in the window and I had to ask if that was my order before they started to bag it
We ordered loaded tater tot nachos and no less than 2 minutes later we got it thought wow we will have great service. I ordered kobe beef burger medium it came well done, my wife ordered skirt steak medim well it came medium rare. It took at least 40 minutes to get our dinner. We complained to waitress who needed to take a class on how to be a waitress, the asst manager came and apologized. Not even a few bucks off the bill. I give this place a couple months!!! 1 star because i cant make it 0 stars!!!!!
The wings werent that good, the hot wings were more of a sweet hot and not hot hot. the Garlic Parmesan was really curdy and heavy with their sauce, and mild was hotter than the hot sauce. Our waitress was nice and checked on us a good amount of times.
I visited Tap House earlier this week and had a great experience. Our server Neha was very friendly and delivered our drinks and food items in timely manner. She had good knowledge about the drinks and food on the menu. She even suggested a few beers as my husband is a craft beer drinker. He is a fan of IPAs and sour beers. She strongly recommended the Heretic Fruitful and brought a sample of it and the Tap House own Crimson Nectar. She was very polite and hope to come back and will be asking for her. We recommend Tap House Grill in Hanover. Great food, drinks, and servers!
I would give this place zero stars if I could. We came here to check this place out for a late lunch on Saturday. There were only a handful of other people there. We decided to sit at the bar as you usually receive better service at places when sitting at the bar. We sat there for over ten minutes before the bartender asked what we would like to drink. Waited another 15-20 minutes before she ever stopped by to ask is about our food order. My wifes beer glad sat empty for over 10minutes. We ordered wings to start with and they were mediocre at best. We both ordered flatbreads for our meal and they were hands down without a doubt the worst I have ever had. Both of our flatbreads were cold, soggy and doughy tasting. The bartender was out from behind the bar more time than she spent behind the bar even though there was a separate server for the floor. She also decided it was ok to sit at the bar without what appeared to be her mom and eat and go back and forth between sitting and eating and going behind the bar all without washing her hands. Stay far far away from this place unless you like unsanitary conditions, horrible food and pathetic service.
Ashley was our server and she made great suggestions throughout the whole meal. Even took the time to make a Sprite with squeezed lime juice juice because I poked fun that there was no Mountain Dew, and it was pretty dam good.
Food was good, nice atmosphere, TVs everywhere. Great place to watch the game. House made dressings were good. Beer cheese soup was yummy too. Manager came over to say hi and made us welcome. Service wasnt the best, but everything else was a thumbs up
From the first moment you step in that place the personel give you an agreeable feeling. Very courteous stuff, it is a happy restaurant to pass time with friends and colleagues or with your date. enjoyable meals, talented chief cook and stuff, modest price and generous service. Warmly recommended.
Ive recently moved to this area and while I am familiar with Taphouse, I was a little dissatisfied with the service at this one. When I lived and worked near Des Plaines, I would visit the Taphouse there and always received great service even if the kitchen messed up an order once in a while. However out of my three visits to THIS location, Ive only gotten good service once. On a positive note, the kitchen detail is great. I would suggest not ordering food late though, because the quality definitely falls short as they get close to closing.
HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE SERVICE. My husband and I went in last night, we ordered our drinks. I asked for a Margarita with Patron tequila, the waitress seemed confused by what I was ordering, first she was like I dont think we have that, she was like let me ask. It seemed like she didnt know anything and seemed nervous. 20 minutes later we still didnt have our drinks, no acknowledgement by this waitress whats so ever....we didnt even get her name, wish I had!! Another waitress noticed that we had been sitting there for a while, she said she was going to go check on our drinks. She passed by us again and didnt say a word to us, so my husband and I got up and walked out!! First and last time we ever go to this place.
Good food, kind of pricey. It was my first time there and I live very close so planning on making it a regular spot as it has a good bar atmosphere. They have a rewards program where once you spend $200, you get $20 back. I signed up at the restaurant and had the server help me. Then after spending $100 he didnt apply it to my account. I used a credit card and called the next day as I didnt realize til I got home that it wasnt added to my account. I called the restaurant and they told me they couldnt do anything for me since I didnt have the hard copy of my receipt. I had a good waiter but it is upsetting that after he knew I signed up for the program he didnt apply it.
For Hanover Park it gets 4 stars since there is really nothing else close to a regular sports bar in the area. Most anywhere else I’d give it 3 stars. It is clean, safe, decent menu, lots of TVs. I like the tater tots they are crunchy and salty, but get them regular, not the loaded which become just a big mess. Shrimp tacos are also pretty good. Good place to meet friends or even take a family.
Went today with my wife and came out disappointed.We ordered:Salmon - house specialties menuBeer Brined chicken - house specialties menuWine - Pinot NoirStrawberry MargaritaThe Salmon was decent. It comes with brown and my wife thought it was good.The chicken was absolutely horrible. The menu says that the chicken comes with 11 herbs and spices, but there was no taste to it. The meat tasted old and it was very hard. I have never had such a bad chicken. And they say that you cannot go wrong with chicken, but this place proves that you can.The wine was not bad and the Margarita needed some help.The place looks nice, but the food needs some serious revamping. We are not willing to go back and waste our money again.
Called in an order for pickup at the HP location. The girl that answered the phone seemed annoyed that she had to take a sale from a paying customer that already knew what to order. This employee was extremely short and abrupt. I’d hate to imagine what would happen if I was indecisive and slow to order!The pickup process is a total cluster. No process whatsoever.Additionally, the order was incorrect.To top it all off, I was offered a “free appetizer” in exchange for the 30 extra minutes of wait while they fixed the order. Bold of you to assume that I’ll return to this dump for a free appetizer.
The bar is kinda meh. We went for after work drinks and the bartender that was there when we arrived didnt know how to make any drinks. Luckily she left after not to long and the drinks got better. My friend complained that his beer tastes watered down and when we told the waiter we were told that the had their lines flushed and it was possible that it was actually watered down. Now being a bar that specializes in tap beer, wouldnt you make sure that the water is out of the lines prior to serving a customer watered-down beer? Just a thought.
Food is fantastic. Im a wedding dj and this is my nights end go to after a Saturday wedding to wind down. Taylor (bartender) is awesome. Ive been going there a few months and she recognizes my car and sometimes has my drink on the bar when I come in. Tgats customer service! Love this place!
Been to several of their locations and I must say....Consistency is key! I finally ventured over the Hanover Park location and wow.... What a hdden in plan sight Gem. I love the environment and the staff. The kitchen really moves the food out fast hot and ready. Bartenders are awesome overall a great place for any occasion. It was a no brainer for me to decide to go back and with my daughter to take part in their gingerbread event and selfies with Santa. Tap house is amazing. Keep it going...
My family and I have eaten at this location three times, and each experience gets worse. The food is nothing special. The service is slow. The environment/decor feels worn and dated. Its simply not on par with other Tap House locations in the Chicago area.
Fantastic food menu, outstanding burgers, tot-chos! (Tater tot nachos!) Great draft beer selection. Nice modern environment. Lots of TVs for watching any game. Family friendly. Love it.
We went there at off hour and plenty of room to seat at your choice. Stuffed burger was my favorite and crispy shrimp taco was very delicious. Highly recommended.
My wife and I really liked this place when we first started ordering from there (on DoorDash). Id get the smokey mac and cheese and shed get the Kobe beef sliders. Then, out of nowhere, both those items just disappeared off the menu.I tried subbing the regular mac and cheese and my wife tried the prime rib sliders, but both didnt come close to living up to what we previously had. The sauce was severely lacking both times I ordered it. The prime rib sliders were boring.If they being back the other items, or up the quality of the other items l weve had, Id definitely love to go back.
Good neighborhood bar&restaurant. Good food choices and ton of drink choices. The beer soup is good! Tachos are awesome! And the Duck wings are great too! Santa even hangs out at the Tap House.
2nd time here with Aakash as my server. Just like last time the service was amazing!!! Also the bartender who’s name I forgot was great as well. She made a great beer recommendation and I now have a new beer to add to my list.Thanks again for the great food and service.
Food is pretty good. They have gluten free options which is cool. But some of their food is just sad and little. Be wary of what you order. If youre hungry. Some of the sandwiches and plates may not fill you. They have a super sad philly beef.
Pretty good place. We had the Tuesday special of boneless wings & fries, & a bowl of soup. Specials are a good deal. Regular prices a little pricey. Wings were very good.
This place has definitely gone downhill the past 2-3 months. I used to go in after work with 5-6 people each week to see Candace, Taylor, Kaitlin and Matt but they all seem to be gone now. The people who are left dont really seem to know whats going on and its starting to show. Orders are taking longer to come out and my wings the past 2 times have been under cooked. Probably wont be returning anymore. shame.
I ordered a cup if chilli and nachos and my husband ordered a side salad and the 1 pound BLT. Chilli was spicy hotter than I expected and liked. The nachos were very good. My husband thought his sandwich was very good as well. We will go again.
The place was excellent EJ was awesome the owner Moe was very hospitable. Food was great. I havent had that good of a chicken wing in a long time. You got to try the farm burger. I promise you youll love it.
Kristina was an excellent server. The food here is awesome, home made BBQ, solid variety, the works. and tons of beer tapping events. Just moved to the area and this is my new hot spot.
Dave, the manager is a terrible person. I watched him berate an elderly woman to hysterical crying when he was drunk at the bar because he wanted the slot machine she was using. Being drunk and gambling at your place of employment is not a good look. I tried to tell Mo, the owner but he had his bros back. I wont be back. In fact I noticed all the regulars at another local bar. Turns out they find Dave pretty unlikable too.
A quaint village bar with assortment of foods. I had a blackened shrimp wrap that was an adequate amount of food for a quick meal. The bacon cheeseburger my husband had was enough to fill his big appetite. Not overpriced.
This has to be one of the finest establishments in Hanover Park. The ambience of the atomsphere was warm and welcoming. The wait staff was very polite and paid attention to detail when ordering. The food came out very quickly and was absolutely delicious! The appetitizers to the main course dishes were done in such a professional manner, when brought to the table the display of food on the plate was like a work of art 👌🏽 There are so many selections on the menu but these are some of the best for first timers. The best appetitizers are the Cheddar Stuffed Bacon, Loaded Tater Totchos, and the Double Decker Southwestern Chicken Quesadillas. Best Shareables were Mac N Cheese Bacon Tacos, Prime Rib Trio Sliders, and Duck Wings! 😋 Best burgers were The Kobe beef burger, The Tap House Brew Burger, and the Bleu Cheese Bacon Mushroom Burger. The Best dessert I would recommend is the 10 Fresh Sticky Chocolate Caramel Donuts! 😋 Last but not least, the owner Moe is just a nice down to earth guy. He came to the table and introduce himself to my friends and I. He was very warm and welcoming. He made sure that every one was taken care of, was happy with the food, service, and thanked my friends and I for stopping in. He is the type of owner that other restaurants need and the prime example of why I will keep spending my money at his establishment. Id give this restaurant a 10/10 and recommend it to anyone that just wants a nice chill place to have fun, meet new people, and enjoy some really Amazingly Delicious food! 💪🏽
Just left, looking for a different place close to home but we won’t be back. Food was awful, Tilapia tacos were just awful tasted old. My step daughters flatbread was literally terrible and undercooked. The place was messy and tables not bussed. Seat yourself option was probably a bad concept during dinner rush.
Im not sure what her name is but its the same waitress at night all the time. She is awesome, she has a great attitude/personality the grilled wings are amazing. Would definitely recommend!
The chicken sandwich was very good and it looked like they had a ton of beers on tap.
Drinks and food reasonably priced and the burgers were next level. Will be back
I am super excited to see this restaurant Hanover Park. My first time there was great, the server was friendly and the food was delicious. I tried the prime rib sliders and wow- perfectly seasoned and cooked. Their outdoor patio overlooks the car show which takes place in the adjacent parling lot every Saturday.
Chicken wings were amazing but the Bleu cheese was water. Service could use improvement.
In the middle of our second visit right now. Been here 45 minutes and finally had to ask to get drink refills. Cheese curds took 20 minutes and dont know where our soups are. The place is new and has good food and beers but both visits have been extremely slow with little to no checking in. Plan on spending at least an hour and a half mostly waiting.
Do you want to get a food coma? This is the place where you should go for it. The chicken grilled wings with their burgers- this is unbelievable delicious. Best food what I ever had. Highly recommended.
I eat in this spot a lot since I work nearby. I got to say the customer service is always good and they keep the place clean all the time. Pricing is reasonable and they serve generous portions.
Food was delicious but the service was terrible ! Got there at 6:30 ..ordered by 6:45...food took over 30 minutes to arrive, and was not hot because it had sat waiting to be picked up. Had to ask 3 times for ketchup which arrived when we were bg early done. Only 24 other people in the restaurant.
Great service n great foodWings are hot as he$&.
Horrible service, food recived was not what i asked for or is it anything they offer mixing dish up, I normaly leave good reviews but this place trash all in front for resturant look horble. Orded a long island when I recived it, look different than normal so I tasted it nothing like long island I guess they must have new people not know what what. In my eye the manager running this place doing a very bad job they didnt even offer refund on food I didnt eat, we told they to look menu showing what I wanted and they just shook there head, this not my 1st time here come here on reg why know this dish was wrong but there attitude what got me. Please slipping never got dollar from me and your outside patio and one of the pole holding it up damaged and has one bolt holding it up hope you fix before summer and people are sitting out there. This place will not last long.
Chicken mushroom wrap was very good. So was the drink southern headache but for $13 each, wont have again.Great visit there- overall
My boyfriend and I would probably consider Tap House Grill our local bar. We sit at the bar and have a meal with our drinks. Give their loaded tater totchos a go! That was unbelievably tasty and quite large for an appetizer. We both had their kobe beef burger with fries. Yum!
Food is good but after multiple visits we’ve never received good or decent service. If you have half an hour to kill just trying to flag down someone to take your drink order then by all means this is your place. When the sign says “seat yourself”, don’t.
Came here yesterday to enjoy a pint and watch march madness. They wouldnt let me buy a beer even though I had 3 forms of ID: my passport, my Indian drivers license, and a US employment card. All of them had my date of birth on it. Im like 30 years old and no way do I look like I am 18 or 20.I mean thats just the most ridiculous thing I have heard.the level of security here is even more than than immigration I went through when I came to the US. Note to US immigration services: you may want to hire these guys. LolBut anyway, coming to my point..the only acceptable form of ID to buy a beer at this bar is a US issued drivers license, US issued passport, or US issued state ID.In order words, sorry travelers from around the world, sorry immigrants who dont have a US issued ID yet, you wont feel very welcomed here.Highly disappointed and absolutely ridiculous
Great place to sit down and have a meal or just drinks. The menu is large and diverse and they have a good cocktail and beer selection. There arent a lot of restaurants in the area and theyre open late with late-night kitchen which is a plus!
Above average dining and drinking, but it kind of feels like they are following the formula too closely and there isnt much personality to the place. Thats why it only gets 4 stars from me.
The food here is absolutely amazing and the staff is great! For someone who doesnt like a lot of beers, I have found a lot that I really enjoyed on their menu.
A nice neighborhood place to grab a drink or a bite to eat. I hope it sticks around for a while as it isnt usually very busy whenever I go. Tuesdays are great, cheap burgers.
Prepare to wait for food after ordering. Place was not busy, it took forever to be served. Had to ask twice for condiments that should have been on table. Food was good but not good enough for a return visit.
We just had our Christmas party there and the staff so so nice. Taylor and Shelley made sure that all the girls had full drinks and that our food was hot and ready and delicious. They even stuck around and giggled with us a little. I would defiantly go back with family or friends..
Servers were slow, food came out cold. We told the female bartender working there what happened and just shook her head and said thats what we get for coming before 5pm!! What kind of service is that???
Food ok, short staff result in a long way, not there fault we are all in the se boat.
Karen burger so yummy! Definitely will have it again. Service great. A little noisy but no problem talking.
Good. Worth a visit. Not a bad place to hang out and maybe catch a game but didnt blow my mind with either the food or the beer menu. Service was good.
Ive always talked up Kumas Korner as my favorite burger in Chicago. Decided to try out Tap House Grill in Hanover Park and Im glad I did. The double bypass burger is actually better than anything Ive had at Kumas . Im picky with my burgers, and this place surprised me. Id say best burger in Chicago.
Extremely bad experience, first of all all the food here is just terrible . I ordered nachos that were just honestly so god damn bad the WORST & I received them way at the end after I finished my main dish , the flat breads were just exetremely basic & received it cold . Dont be fool by their addictive food promotion its addictivly bad , DONT COME HERE!
Amazing food , friendly staff! The quesadillas were amazing!!! We will be regulars!
The place is extraordinary and roomy, the food was delicious and the prices were very economical. quickly, productive service and very friendly waiters. I recommend this place.
Very accommodating. Always willing to put on a specific game by request. Great little sports bar. Drinks are about averagely priced and the food is decent
Good tacos and the ingredients was fresh as I can see. Staffs were attentive and had provided excellent service. Good experience over all.
Not a bad bar (good music, atmosphere), but it costs $5.50 for a 12 oz. bottle of Budweiser. Probably wont return unless they lower their prices.
Food menu should be scaled down a bit. You dont have to do 50 things, You only have to 5 things right.Awesome Beer & in house cocktail selection.
The food was great. Bartender was friendly. The place looked good. I have only been once but would definitely go back.
This restaurant is amazing and spacious, the food was delightful and the prices were very economical. rapidly, effective service and very attentive staff members. Recommended.
This was my 3rd attempt to eat at this restaurant. Our burgers were ok, nothing to write home about. My Bloody Mary might have been one of the worst Ive had. I think Ill try someplace else next time.
Menu items a little costly. Would Like to see lighter portionsOnion rings coldNot enough sauce on BBQ porkWaitress shorted my change. I wont be back.
My blackened salmon was phenomenal!
Waited at the bar which was mostly empty except for 3 other people for about 20 minutes bartender wouldn’t acknowledge existence was just flirting with a guy on the other side of the bar. Ended up leaving before even making an order. Other waitress told bartender twice that o was just sitting there waiting for them
This is a bar with choices. REALLY, really good choices. There were a lot of beers on tap (30-40+) and some excellent choices for food.Friendly service, great food.
Great bar doesn’t get packed. Reasonable drink prices. Was not a fan of the wings but the burgers and appetizers were good.
Friendly bartenders, tons of beer on tap, craft beers even, and a great atmosphere! Its quite an expansive bar, and I do recommend it as someone who is still a bit new to the bar scene!
Service is slow, food is just ok, WAY overpriced for what you get. Unless you want to sit at the bar and drink beers, not the best place.
I got the Philly cheesesteak, and it wasn’t that good at all the bread was rough and the cheese was too salty and strong, cheese curds and fries are very salty and we asked for a booth but got a bar topped table.
I come here with my friends fairly often, the food is amazing, the drinks are good and its overall a nice spot to come and hangout
I honestly love the setting in this restaurant, its very laid back yet modern! I went with my family and my dad loved the duck sandwich and I tried the double double cheese burger and it was delicious!!!
Where should I start... lets see... slow service, burnt burgers, soggy fries and tater tots and ends of the head of lettuce in our salads. I would give this place 0 stars, but thats not possible. 6 months at most and this place will be closed.
Too new, water and ice was spilled on floor and wasnt even cleaned correctly there was still a puddle of water after they finished moping for 20 seconds. Food was ok and worth money but staff need some more training
We went there at 1:00 on a Saturday 11 people in the whole place Brian our bartender was awesome but Tony the general manager was very unprofessional and fired Brian right in front of everyone.We will not be back.
Good drinks selection but the food is horrible here. And you have to wait wayyyy too long for the servers to get your order and food.
Food was good, but the beers on tap were warm.
Good food and beer selection... the service is good too
Amazing food and great service! Drinks were great and the wings were the best I’ve ever had. Definitely will be back!
First time at Tap House Grill, excellent service and great food.
Food was good. Service was rather poor. Timeliness was of no concern. Didnt pay attention to the full order and missed things, but what we received we did enjoy
Fries were cold. Bacon wasnt fully cooked. Service was slow when it was not a packed place. Then got over charged. Not going back any time soon.
Delicious, tasty food! Great beer! Phenomenal service! Price is ideal! We will be back!
They make really good Bloody Marys. The food is delicious and comes out hot. Love coming here for a quick bite.
The service was slow and then the wrong meal was brought to our table and then my order was made wrong and there was a hair pulled out of a salad served to our table. I am really disappointed with this Tap House Grill and will never be back.
Amazing food and very knowledgeable staff. Its always a great time! Taylor and Mandi are amazing behind the bar!!!
Ok service and good food
Going there for lunch today to meet a buddy. Great beer selection. Solid food. Great service.
Outstanding burger for $4 special. Cant beat that. Friendly service great place to hang out.
Their food is good and their servers were very courteous not too expensive. Different sort of items from most menus
Second visit. Both times great food, great service and $2 draft specials from 3 to 6 PM during week.
Google maps said they close at 3am but we got there at 12:30am, they said they closed the kitchen.... then close earlier. Don’t tell the public you’re open until 3am if you’re gonna if to close the kitchen 2 and a half hours earlier than the closing time.
Delicious drinks. The service was slow but the staff was attentive and open with us about difficulties they were having.
AWESOME food and a huge selection of beers. Nezt time I am getting what hubby got...the Kobe burger...he picked a good one!
Happy hour deal great, food ok wait staff a bit eager and pushy but other side Id go back
Would certainly recommend visiting this place. Fantastic atmosphere, delightful food, excellent service. Keep up the good work.

2021-07-04Firstly, glad to see this local spot open again.So when I found its open, my wife and I went to dinner there. I had the 1/2 BBQ chicken with sweet potato fries and corn on the cob. Wow what a great selection! Cooked nicely and moist with BBQ sauce on top. Fries crispy and cooked thoroughly. Most definitely coming back for more. Also, Dana our server was awesome!

2022-03-01Went there just before the holidays and had an awesome experience. The server was very nice and hospitable. The food was great.We went back last night and it was a completely different experience. The server came to take our order and we told her that we hadn’t received any menus. (The last time we were there, we received actual menus)She tapped on a QR code taped to the table and walked away.Dumbfounded by her actions, we still proceeded to scan the QR code. We spent a few minutes trying figure out how to navigate the online menu. During our last visit the server explained the specials as well as some popular dishes as it was our first time ever dining at this restaurant.After a few moments of browsing the online menu we decided to leave as we didn’t appreciate the lack of customer service. We didn’t think we’d be ordering from a fast food restaurant.We are Streamwood residents and we won’t be going back. Out-of-Towners beware.

2022-02-20Terrible. Went on a weekday around 2 pm. There was only one other table in the place and it took forever to be greeted. I ordered the black and blue burger with no cheese, pickles or tomatoes. It cane out WITH pickles and on a regular bun (was supposed to be a pretzel bun). The bartender/waitress just shrugged and didn’t seem to care. The food was not good either. Lastly, the music was blaring like it was a weekend night, which was obnoxious. I almost left after arriving because of the music and inattentiveness. Now I wish I had.

2022-01-23Great service. Server Dana was very personable & knew the menu well. Food was good but way over priced! $15 for a club sandwich. Really? Then they had the nerve to charge 12.7% tax!Bye bye. Wont be back.

2022-02-27Saturday night and about 8 guest at the bar with 3 tables. Ordered the skirt steak medium. 40 minutes later, the food finally arrived. Everything was cold. The fries were cold, the steak was cold, the vegetables were cold, the plate was cold. Our entire table’s food was cold. Friend has the prime rib, that was cold, mashed potato’s was cold, vegetables were cold. Other friend ordered exotic shrimp basket to be brought out with her quesadillas. That was all cold. Two stars because the server was nice.

2022-03-31A total transformation post covid. Exciting dishes and appetizers that not only are great but are also very fresh. Highly..HIGHLY recommended. The bar manager, Sarah is one of the best service oriented individuals I have ever met. A must MUST experience.

2022-01-29Came here specifically for the totchos as I remember how good they were. Our server said they discontinued them, and a simple check of other locations confirms they’re no longer on the menu. I’ve been craving them for a couple months now and the level of my disappointment is immeasurable. They still have other great options like their burgers, so don’t avoid this place all together.

2022-05-26Great service a gentleman named Brenden was so polite and attentive. The drinks were beautiful and delicious. The food was great and had a great flavor. Would definitely return. Great work guys keep up the good work.
