Note: this is a great establishment with a smooth atmosphere so don’t let that take from the placeSadly it seems they are supporting las mamacitas by their advertising. Rich the cook/ photographer has got payment and showed up for numerous people’s weddings and then absolutely refuses to give the pictures . When I commented on your Facebook and was very open to conversation I got blocked so I know no one is serious about it. As for meeting in person to discuss, I tried to explain myself and was told by a lady manager that she doesn’t care about what happened between us and doesn’t want to listen. We were then told to leave from in front of the store and food truck after confronting the food truck owner and cook to have a conversation. Sadly this has happened to at least 6-8 couples this past year that I know about. I really did enjoy your business too! Cool idea. Great atmosphere. So sadly as more people who got scammed , friends, family of all these people start seeing them parked out there is may increase the negative reviews and drop your revenue significantly. I’ve even heard of some people possibly getting city approval from chief of police and paperwork filed to even protest the food truck outside your store . (Not organized by me or anyone I know personally)my review may change on here . I’m very active on my reviews on google and Yelp .

It is unfortunate that I have to leave a 1 Star review since this was one of my favorite bars in Chesterton. They have fallen into bed with another business whom actively scams their customers and now main street Tap is playing their games as well. They have been deleting reviews and comments and still continue to support and work with a business that they know is scamming people. The owner seemed genuine but unfortunately this is what it is now.Update: I’m unable to reply to the owner who replied to this review. I apologize for having to do this because you really do have an amazing bar but you are doing business with scammers. There are more ppl other than me who are starting to notice this. If I were to come in how could we solve any of this?

Sadly I'm going to have to give a one star review not because of the place. I love the idea of self serve beer and the place is very well kept . But they let and highly support las mama it's good truck outside their business . They scam people. They offer food and wedding picture packages. They will show up to your wedding . Take your money and you will never recieve your pictures. They will block you on everything and just say you will get them when you get them. This will carry out for about a year before you just give up and take them to court like the 10-15 other couples from 2022-2023. When confronting the food truck the owner and the cook named rich got in my face and threatened to "break my neck if I didn't go away" in front of everyone . Manager of the rap house came out and just told us to leave and didn't care about what we had to say. This looks very bad on their business to have such hated gross people outside of their establishment. On a public sidewalk they will threaten to call the cops. It doesn't look good at all to support these people .

This is the place where you get The World's Coldest 18 degree beer. Also, you get to pour your own and the prices are the cheapest in town that I've seen. A great place to just chill.

Love the vibe in this cool spot right in downtown Chesterton. No food yet, but you can bring in a to go order or door dash from any number of local places. Excellent section of local beer on tap. They host a great open mic every Thursday night.

Mostly IPA selection here, and limited food options, but it nice to do your own pours and find exactly what you like!

Great selection and atmosphere

An awesome place with friendly staff, a good beer selection, and amazing atmosphere! It’s one of my new favorite spots.
For a self serve tap house beer is WAY OVER PRICED! Owners are friendly the first time through but after our 3rd visit they don't take the time to even acknowledge us. The beer selection is nothing special, mostly over priced big box! Buyer beware!

The staff is super friendly! Great beer selection on the tap wall and behind the bar. I had their boneless wings and they were really good!
