Best place to hang around 5 Star Rating - World class

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.

Great after work spot 5 Star Rating - World class

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

Chili is delicious 5 Star Rating - World class

I work right above Jak's, so I eat there all the time. Its really good. Salads are delicious, sandwiches are great, and the 6-gun chili is fabulous. Also, I am picky, and they are really good about letting me modify their choices. I definilty reccomend it.

I have to rave about my favorite neighborhood bar. Great food, great service and a long list of beer to choose from. The 6-gun chili is fabulous! AND...they serve breakfast. Definitely worth checking out.

Pros: Good parking, Not too crowded, Inexpensive
