Union Tap is the best!! The staff there is amazing and very attentive, especially Gaby, Giselle, and Tom. The food there is great and fresh! The atmosphere is so lively and they play the best music. The bar is very clean and the outdoor patio is really nice! Definitely come here if you’re looking to have great food, great drinks, and a great time!

I’ve lived in Elmwood Park for about 5 years. I’ve tried every burger place around the area. I ordered here for the first time today. This place is GREAT! The burger was one of the best I’ve had. This is a new go to spot. Get the chipotle mayo! Also, very friendly service. Highly recommend

Had a family get together there and Union Tap could not have been more accommodating for us. Pre-arranged some details with Gabby and they had tables set up just for us. Taylor was fantastic all night handling our large party and keeping the drinks flowing. I love how casual and friendly the place is with both indoor and outdoor seating. Great neighborhood gem. Thank you again Taylor for the great service!

Giselle is literally the best bartender ever she makes the best drinks- The food is amazing and I love that they have TouchTunes so customers can play their own jams. Definitely recommend coming here. Gabby and Kiki are great bartenders as well. They also have the outdoor area so I like to go on walks with my dog and chill out there while still enjoying the vibes inside

My kind of dive bar. Food is unhealthy and delicious, and big portions. Properly happy hour specials. A mix of folks that look like they came from their blue collar jobs and corporate stooges that have been sitting in Zoom meetings all day. We didn’t know it was trivia night when we went. It was fun - half the group didn’t want to leave for our planned next stop. Get the fried pickles.

This is totally my kind of dive bar 🍻😎! The food is the perfect combo of greasy and delicious — huge portions that totally hit the spot 🤤🍔🍟. The happy hour deals are awesome 💸✨, and the crowd is such a fun mix — blue-collar folks unwinding after work and office people escaping their Zoom meetings 😂💼. We showed up on trivia night without realizing it, and it turned out to be a blast 🎉🧠! Half our group didn’t even want to leave for the next stop 😂. Oh, and do yourself a favor — get the fried pickles 🥒🔥. Absolute perfection! 💯👏
