The Hurley Tap
The Hurley Tap — the Nachos leads at this top-tier Bucktown mexican spot. The kind of spot that earns loyalty, not hype. The cocktail list is worth exploring. "It was decorated so cute for the holidays, the staff was great, and the nachos were incredible" — A Louks [patio]

“Really nice bar with such friendly and welcoming staff! We visited during happy hour when the tacos were just $3 each, which is an amazing deal. They tasted really good too, especially for the price. Definitely worth checking out!”

“Taco Tuesday $12 for 2 tacos and a beer and it’s amazing! Great deal, great food, great atmosphere”

“Hurley Tap is a great, tucked out of the way neighborhood bar. Nice people, solid food, good beer choices, easy parking. We took the Metra and Divvy’d over..What else do you need?”

“Went here for St. Patty’s day - excellent food/drinks/service, friendly staff, and great atmosphere. Will be back next time we’re in Chicago!”
“Seriously amazing service! Food was great, came out fast especially for a Friday at 6pm. Mable’s Cheesesteak was fantastic. Nice bartender and not incredibly expensive.”
“Came in after a concert on Saturday. Met the owner. Awesome guy! The staff were all super great as well. Will be back!”
“The best bar in Bucktown to watch sports, friendly staff, amazing food, and the service is top-notch...I never have an empty beer.”
“My husband and I were out walking and exploring the Bucktown neighborhood when we came upon this gem! It was decorated so cute for the holidays, the staff was great, and the nachos were incredible. On a really cold day, it was worth the journey here.”
“A buddy and I checked out Hurley's to watch the Bears game (they won). We were pleasantly surprised. The staff was awesome. I had tacos that were surprisingly excellent and my buddy had a burrito that looked fantastic. I highly recommend this spot.”
