Tack Room

We had just had dinner at Dusek’s and thought we’d hang out here for a bit for drinks. The service is quite poor back here, in comparison to Dusek’s, and the cocktails were just okay. My fiancé was disappointed in his martini. We left after just one round for both these reasons.

Our final stop after watching the Lone Bellow at Thalia Hall. I don’t even know how to describe this awesome concept. One can truly have dinner, watch a great show, then spend time debriefing the show and drink till 3am in the Tack Room & Punch House. All one needs is a hotel room, ala L&E. The tack room is a good before or after show destination, or a good place to wait for your table if you’re dining at Dusek’s. Cocktails are unique and reasonably priced. Must check it out when you’re visiting this adult «amusement park» in Pilsen, USA.

4.5 Nice little piano bar connected to Duseks. I can’t exactly remember the drinks I had but the cocktail list was pretty unique and interesting. They also have a menu with some food items from Duseks that you can eat there.

I really love the atmosphere of the Tack Room and it’s definitely a great place to relax and get a cocktail (before a show at Thalia Hall).
The summer cobbler drink I got was so surprisingly good, I got two.
This might seem like no big deal, but I’m a one-​and-​done kind of drinker thanks to inner ear medication. It was too hard not to resist a fruity, refreshing drink while sitting on the patio and just enjoying the summer and the piano.

I stopped here because of an Eater article denoting the secret menu option of the Ace Burger. I’ve tried lots of burgers in Chicago and I will have to say this is the second best one in Chicago. That is an amazing feat considering how great the one at Au Chevaul is. It was a Friday night so we also got the benefit of a live piano player. Piano bars aren’t necessairly my thing but at the same time it is a good bit of a change up especially with the cocktail caliber that you get here. It really made for the fantastic experience.
One downside is that the only vegetrain options on the menu are a cheese stuffed pretzel, which is proably the best pretzel I’ve ever had. Let me digresss for a bit, I don’t even like pretzels. I think the best thing for the world would be for every Auntie Anne’s to spontaneously burned to the ground. However this pretzel made me a fan. Nice crispy exterior and warm goey cheese on the insde. The olives are the other great veg option.
As far as the burger itself is concerned. It is a messy beast. That being said It was an enjoybable messy beast. The fried egg combined with pork riellettes to top of a juicy lucy is amazing. Not to mention that the quality of Sagel Farms beef stands out so that at beeef isn’t lost. The smoky tomato bacon jam does an excellent job of replacing ketchup. The foie gras is something that makes this burger so over the top.
The drinks are stiff and well mad and when I closed out my tab I thought I underpaid. I defintely will come back with a lot more popular songs in mind for the piano player.

What a great place! The music was absolutely amazing. Everything from the drink and service to the music and crowd made me fall in love. Will be back, hopefully really soon.

It’s the kind of place that I don’t want to write a review about, because I want to keep it all to myself.
The ambiance and service was great, and the man on the piano on the Friday night we were there was hilarious and great!
I’ll definitely be back!
PS try the summer cobbler! It’s a light and refreshing drink. Reminded me of a raspado

Last night, as we waited for our table at Dusek’s, my mom and I wandered into Tack Room (the new piano bar affiliated w/​duseks/​punch house/​thalia hall). It was early and at this point fairly empty. We were lucky enough to be greeted by the bar manager Bob, who was such a delight! He sat w/​us as we enjoyed our awesome cocktails (mixed by bartender, Jack — top notch margaritas) and talked to us about the space — which is something to be seen! Thank you Bob — Very very cool place and outstanding cocktails/​service/​ambiance. Go!
Oh, and there is a piano player Thurs-​Saturday — I will be going back to check that out soon!

The Tack Room opened up about a month ago and I was pretty excited because I love Piano bars but hadn’t had time to check it out.
I finally went last night and I absolutely loved it. The room isn’t very big but there is a patio seating and various tables. We were able to sit around the piano. The décor is beautiful.
They have a drink menu for the Tack room and you could also order some food. I stick to my usual fries and vodka tonic.
The piano player was absolutely hilarious and she knew so many songs. I would suggest, getting a group of friends, having a drink and enjoy singing along. It’s so much fun.
Don’t forget to bring dollars to tip, they do play for free but don’t be a dick. tip at least a dollar to hear your favorite song.
