Reviews for Jake Melnick's Corner Tap in Chicago, IL
April the bartender was freakin awesome. She recommended the wings and they were without a doubt the bomb. We couldn’t decide... on a flavor so she recommended we get them naked and she hooked us up with all the sauces!! Wings were huge, super crispy, andperfecto. We ordered a side of fries and they brought us a huge basket of them. I can’t say enough how friendly this bar is.Give this place a try if you’re in Chicago!! Read more
Recently came here and thought it was overall a decent experience. The wings were really, really good. The medium Buffalo was... awesome and I really enjoyed it. The special, Jake and the giant peach was decent though I’d probably opt for something elseif I came back. The wings were made very well and were extremely crispy. A little bummed that you only get 8 wings though forclose to $20 (if you choose 2 sauces). The sides we had were also very good. The fried pickles are a must get, easily myfavorite thing I ate here. The cheese curds were also really good though. Both sides felt worth their price to me. They alsohave a very extensive beer menu. They have tons of options on tap and everything I tried was really good. If it wasn’t such apremium to eat here I’d probably come back more often. Read more
If you come here, stick to wings, pretzels, and beer. The Pretzel was my favorite part. It came hot freshly baked, tasted... heavenly. The Cheese was not melted properly though. I tried the bbq wings, and they were fun to eat with great flavor. Wealso tried nachos, briskets, and mac n cheese they were very poor in flavor and quality. The portions are huge, insanely big. Idid not like it and felt like a waste of food and money. Staff were friendly, but food quality below average even for a sportbar food. Its ok for a lunch with kids maybe, otherwise try dinner somewhere else. Read more
First time and was incredible. Wings are as good as your favorite uncles or cousins or old time recipes. The sandwiches are... very tasty and delicious. The staff are personable and very attentive. Loved our visit. Read more
Great spot overall for wings I think but had a bad last experience. Ordered firecracker wings from here a while back and it was... delicious. But more recently ordered poncho wings which came way undercooked. It’s a shame because the grilled flavor wasgood. Firecracker is definitely tastier given it’s fried. Prices are also pretty high ($2+ per wing) which makes this hard torecommend. Read more
1000% hands down amazing. Service and food was phenomenal ???? We has the Jake's meal with the Pancho and Nashville hot... sauce(order crispy) with fried pickles and a 312 Shandy. I can't wait to come back. Don't order delivery if you want the freshexperience. Delivery was my first time order but arrived soggy. Dine in is a game changer! Highly recommended ???? Read more
VACCINATION certificate is MUST in every dining place nowadays (SOFT OR HARD COPY). The place is cool, they have a plenty of... beer choices. Staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The prices of beer varies from 6$-9$, wine glasses 12$-16$.... Foodportions were good but fried things were very oily (fried fries, onion rings). I love their buffalo Salad with ranch. I didn'tlike that the waitress charged each one of us 18% gratuity (tip) directly on the bill without giving us the choice to choose ourown percentage to pay her tip. Weekends you might need to book in advance or you'll end up waiting for a table for an hour ormore. Read more
Chicken wings boneless, pretzels are yummy and great options for appetizers. St. Louis ribs are something delicious and filling,... I like this restaurant for hanging out, drinks or watching a game. The staff are really friendly. Read more
