    It's quite rare I'd be out this direction. But Park Tavern is worth the food if you're wanting a place to sit, drink, and watch! Atmosphere is a given. This place has great ceiling room, amazing lighting, and clean restrooms. It's near United Center, so if you're attending a concert, this is your place! Service was amazing. Kind, very generous people in here. The food was outstanding, and came in larger portions than expected. I wish it was closer to the Millennium area, but I'll be here again!

    I enjoyed dining here at Park Tavern before going to the Bulls game. I got the shrimp tacos with fries and a blue raspberry lemonade. The ladies bathroom was flooded so patrons had to use the men's room if needed. I got there before my group and the waitress was very attentive but once my party arrived it seemed like our service slowed. Once we finished eating we waited extra while for the check e our server was in the restroom on the phone

    I used to always drive by this place in the summer and their outdoor area would be PACKED, no matter the time of day. So of course my partner and I decide to finally try it on one of the coldest days Chicago has every had The cold didn't stop other Chicagoans either, there was Blackhawks game on after all! We were there pretty early around 5:30 PM which falls within their Friday. Happy hour, unfortunately, because the Hawks game was at home they were not honoring happy hour prices. But the deals look really good and will definitely be back to take advantage of happy hour pricing. Given how busy they were, I don't fault the waitress too much for being a bit slow to take our order and check in on us and refill our water. The food came out in a good amount of time, and it was spaced out well for all the Shareables that we ordered. The pizza was divine. We got the pepperoni & pepperoncini pizza, cheese curds, fries and cocktails. The food was surprisingly delicious. One of my favorite slices of pizza I've had in Chicago (I got thin crust). The drinks were ok. Tasted like a cocktail that came out of a premixed batch, I could've done without it. I'm looking forward to giving this place another try!

    Salad - lots of toppings and additions just came out hidden from view

    If you are going to an event at the United Center - this is the place to go to grab pre-event dinner and drinks! 10/10 would recommend. We thought we wouldn't be able to get a table before a weekday Chicago Bulls game but, we were (thankfully) wrong. We were seated immediately at a lovely booth. One side of the restaurant that had a large bar was not in-use. The other bar space was open and had bar seating available. The crowd was not boisterous or obnoxious which I appreciated. Serve was very fast and friendly. They were hustling! The cheese curds hit the spot although the cheese pull wasn't a nice long pull like in Wisconsin ;) The salad was huge and I wasn't able to finish it. My Fiancé ordered a hamburger with fries and also wasn't able to finish the meal which is very unlike us. We are always in the clean plate club. While dining we noticed a shuttle bus pull up to the front of the tavern. We asked our server what that was all about. Turns out, tavern patrons are able to take the complimentary shuttle to and from the United Center! The shuttle runs every few mins to and from the stadium. This was a very pleasant surprise especially because we planned to walk to the stadium and the forecast was calling for rain. We had zero issues with the driver remembering us when we grabbed the shuttle after the game. While this service is free, tips are appreciated.

    Ask for a frosty mug or else you won't get one ! Don't recommend the Paloma it was so sour& tart. Beer is probably the way to go. Deviled eggs were delish. My salad was good but I ordered the steak medium & it was singed to well done or worse. It was inedible. My dad liked his pulled chicken sandwich. Fries were good. We got 2 tequila shots before the game & they were poured tall ! Cheers ! Great place to come before a Hawks game and the bus to the stadium is perfect !

    Kitchen closes at 7:00 PM. That's a big limitation, don't you think. Food is decent. Good beer list. Good outside space.

    Kari's Rating 8.5/10…read more TLDR: -Sports themed bar with many TVs -Interesting variety of appetizers -Bathrooms look like a prison Came in for drinks about 6:30pm on a Wednesday and it wasn't too crowded since it was a bit early. I think there were some kind of corporate happy hour happening in the back, but a friend and myself just came in for quick drinks. I usually don't drink on the weekdays, so I ended up just getting an iced tea and him a tequila soda, but because I don't drink, we decided to get an appetizer and we browsed the menu for a minute and ended up splitting the Parmesan chicken egg rolls. Truthfully, I really just wanted to see what that would entail because it seemed a little disgusting or maybe even some kind of high-food, but to my surprise, it was actually a really crispy skinned pizza roll. I'm pretty sure it had been previously frozen, but in that moment- served with a side of marinara, I didn't really care. It was full of gooey melted mozzarella cheese and almost like a breaded chicken nugget center. Pretty decent as far as bar food goes. They also had crab rangoon to which I thought, "hmm are they doing a little too much?!" I'm sure drunk me would have gotten them years ago so what can ya do. Overall, quite a positive experience. The bartender was really sweet and everything wasn't super expensive. I've been in the neighborhood for such a long time, but I've actually never been here and I'm glad I came on a night that it wasn't chaotic.

    Instead of heading home for the Super Bowl bc we couldn't find a hotel in the state of Louisiana,…read morewe headed to Chicago where we hoped to find Eagles fans. We made a reservation at Over/Under. When we arrived, there weren't a lot of people yet and we got seated quickly at a table already set up with our name on it and lots of fun swag. By the time the game was starting, it was packed. TV's lined the walls all the way around so every table was a good table. No one blocked our view. We each received 5 drink tickets and 2 meal tickets. In addition to the fact that we wiped the floor with Kansas, we met some really nice fans from Chicago. They made our visit so much fun, filled with endless laughter and a great time. It was a nice mix of young and older folks like us and the young people were so respectful and friendly. It truly was a pleasant surprise. They gave us their bar stools with backs so that we would be comfortable. I don't know if Steven David, who we also met there works for the bar but he was funny as all get out. He says he's a comedian so if you're in Chicago, look for him at a comedy club. The owners were very friendly and we appreciated chatting with them too. We didn't get to our second meal or order half of our drinks bc we were having such a good time so we gave them away. The pretzels were good and nachos weren't bad. Edible. They also offered free opps for prizes and you could also buy tickets to win prizes. Overall, we really enjoyed our time. Nice neighborhood bar feel, surrounded by great humans, including the owners.

    Sunday funday is on a different level here! They bring the vibes of a Vegas Sportsbook right here…read moreto Chicago! You can place bets and enjoy drinks along with food specials like their $4, 6, 8 and $10 happy hour deals or the $8 and $10 large drinks. There are tvs EVERYWHERE so you're able to not miss a game and watch multiple sports at once. My brother and I tried a few menu items, but our favorites were definitely the wings with the Dragon sauce (sweet chili, sesame, soy and ginger) and the sautéed shrimp with potatoes. Be sure to try their cocktail called "Uncut Gem" and check out the Red Zone room! Enjoy!
