I went on a Wednesday night and had a very good experience. If this place was located in the downtown Chicago area I would have given it three stars but it's not it's in Chicago Height. If stand outside the place and do a 360 degree turn you would notice you are not standing between the Drake Hotel and Louie Vuitton store on Michigan Ave. You are on 160th something and Halsted. I don't understand the bad reviews this place received because it was better than I expected and I've been to some nice places. Go for the cheap meaty crab not the ambiance.
Review Source:I have to give this bar two stars. The fact that this bar is open until 4 am, has a very nice outside area to lounge, a dining area, dance floor, and an area to play darts and pools automatically gives them two stars. The place is clean. The problem is with the bartenders and customers. The service here sucks. The bartenders give you attitude especially when there are a lot of orders. Regardless customer service is always about being pleasant and putting the customer first. Some of the customers are creepy. Very uncomfortable. There is also favoritism of regular customers vs new potential regular customers .
Review Source:My review is based on the bar. This was my second time here. Its not a place where you plan on having an extravagant evening, it is a place you end up at, after an extravagant evening! The beer is cheap and the people were friendly. They have security at the door, so have your id ready. I wouldn't mind ending up here again!
Review Source:I don't know about these other reviews - anyone in a bar after 2AM in the morning will appear to be "wretched scum". Â ANYWAY - If you want fresh, all-you-can-eat crab legs for $30 and inexpensive drinks, this place has you covered. Â Oh, I forgot to mention that The Tender Trap has some of THE BEST bread pudding you'd ever taste! Â I have taken family members there for treats/b-day parties/etc. - and my family (which includes a 2 year old) visits frequently. Â We've had no issues with the patrons there, so maybe this isn't the place to go clubbing. Â But visit The Trap on Saturdays for all-you-can-eat crab legs, ranch-flavored french fries, and fluffy bread pudding. Â You WILL be satisfied!
Review Source:Three stars because the food is decent and cheap. And most days they have decent booze specials. Service is good and the bathrooms are semi-decent.
I should knock them down to one star for claiming to be a "family friendly establishment". I wouldn't take my kids there, and I don't think anyone else should either. Some of the patrons are rather creepy. Â
On any normal night this place is pretty much empty. Not sure how it stays open. Full bar, and a back room with pool tables and video games. Also connected to a cigar bar, and you can't beat the fact that they are open until 4am seven days a week.
It's a decent bar for the average night out when you don't want to spend a lot of money.
Not much to say about the restaurant side of the trap. Â Food is decent. Â Ya can catch a good burger there for lunch maybe evan stop by for an early dinner. Â Food is priced cheap and there is a game room to waste some time and money in on that note
During the day it is a mild mannored family dinning establisment but at night.....It becomes....duh duh duhhhhhh....
The Trap, you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
Let me start off by saying i am not a huge fan of places that have, at least, 2 armed police officers at the door. Â If you end up at the trap its because its after last call at all the other bars in the area, so this is the major leagues of drinking. Fights are common. Booze is fairly priced. Â The Casper Slide seems to be stuck on repeat every time i go there. Â
If your a girl prepare to be groped by every thug and playa in there. If your a guy plan on having your girl groped by every thug and playa in there. Â When the crack security guards start herding you out of there and you finally manage to get your head out of the toilet after a long night...be sure to grab a straw and stop by the in house breathe-alizer conveniently located right next to the bathrooms and the creepy lady who sells roses.
Well i guess it cant be that bad if i have ended up there on more than one occasion can it???
I say to you stay away. Â STAY FAR AWAY.
