Kettlestrings Tavern

We really enjoyed the friendly and attentive service. Happy hour has some good specials! Food was alright. We only got a few shareables. Cheese curds and Korean brussel sprouts were both okay. Neither extraordinary, nor terrible. Location is very convenient.

Kettlestrings Tavern is conveniently located near Oak Park Avenue and 290. A few steps from the CTA Blue Line. Kettlestrings Tavern prides themselves on quality and tasty cocktails. Those wanting fresh beers on tap will be disappointed as this watering hole only serves cans and bottles. For me, the outdoor seating is the place to be... pet and family friendly, great atmosphere and service I'll have to venture inside to watch sports and update review. Can recommend the Parmesan fries and wings to snack on and enjoy their space. The service is hit or miss as they have only a few servers doing a lot of work.

Random stop by and we could not have made a better choice! Great location and appeal. We chose to enjoy the outdoor experience for seating. Loved the rain lol! Whitney was a great server. Tavernritas were enjoyed! Wings were amazing and the Cajun salmon plate wonderful! Thank you for the experience!

The food here was absolutely amazing. We had the dry rub chicken wings with blue cheese and ranch and carrots and celery sticks. I thought the wings were exceptional. Very different from what you usually find in eateries, we followed that with the shrimp and chorizo, that was just a palate tease. It was beautifully seasoned and spicy but in the good way . Served with a side of sourdough toasted to perfection! We also had the ginger ale, apple cider and some cocktails as well as the part melt and Oakpark burger. It really was a delight to be there and for sure I'd be back. The setting is quite intimate but I don't let the size fool you, I left there with a very full, happy belly!

This place is a treasure, I’ve been eating here and getting takeout regularly since they opened and I’ve eaten everything on the menu at one point or another. Fantastic burger options, top notch fish and chips, and I love the blackened salmon caesar salad. Great curated beer options and a solid cocktail offering always. A local gem!
