What people say

Third Rail Tavern is a must-visit bar and grill located in the heart of the West Loop in Chicago. The traditional and casual Chicago bar scene is created by the tin ceilings, brick walls, and a 40-foot mahogany bar. The atmosphere is perfect for hanging out with friends and enjoying some great eats. The menu includes sliders, wings, sandwiches, salads, and more. If you're thirsty, Third Rail Tavern has an impressive selection of drinks with 32 draft lines, 250+ whiskeys, 80+ Tequilas, and plenty of options for Vodka, Gin or Rum lovers.

The name Third Rail Tavern pays tribute to the owner's grandfather who owned a tavern near Madison and Halsted called The Rail Inn. This family connection adds to the charm of this Old School Chicago Tavern.

The kitchen is open Monday - Friday at 11 am and Saturday - Sunday at 10:30 am until late hours on weekends. With its friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere, Third Rail Tavern is definitely worth a visit for anyone looking for a great time in Chicago.
