Woodlawn Tap is a hidden gem with a nice ambiance and spacious layout, perfect for chilling with friends, enjoying music, and indulging in good food and drinks. The menu offers delicious options like burgers, fries, and a mozzarella, basil, and tomato sandwich for vegetarians. The prices are budget-friendly, but it's cash only. This bar is not kid-friendly, but it's a great spot for catching up with friends and trying out the rotating specials. Summers are best as most students go home and the locals take over. Jazz and blues performances every Sunday night, along with late afternoon food specials that rotate weekly, make it one of the best bars in Hyde Park. Customers can enjoy Mexican Mules, perfectly crispy and salty fries, and live music from local artists and college graduates. The service is great, and the hot dogs are a solid 9/10. It’s a lively place with a friendly atmosphere, especially during the start of the fall semester when many new students arrive. The bar is known as an old school classic college bar, with great prices and cold beer. Though it can be busy, the bartenders are nice, and the vibe is cool, especially if sitting by the window. Overall, Woodlawn Tap offers a fun environment for having a drink with friends and experiencing the vibrant local scene.
