Pilsen Yards is the ultimate hangout spot with vibrant vibes, tasty Mexican bites, and live DJ sets, perfect for a lively night out.
"The bar- and music-centric venue sports an inviting heated patio, which is open year-round, and big booths to accommodate groups. Guests can enjoy tacos and an extensive collection of mezcals and tequilas while listening to live DJ sets. Make a reservation through OpenTable." - Samantha Nelson, Eater Staff
"Pilsen Yards is a low-key bar that serves food. It also operates a fancy cocktails lounge called the Alderman." - Ashok Selvam
"With heated coils buried underneath the floor, Pilsen Yards was made to welcome guests even in frigid temps. The restaurant and bar features fun cocktails and a Mexican-inspired menu with tacos and more." - Naomi Waxman, Ashok Selvam
"One of the best reboots in a while, the owners of Pizza Capri, a pizzeria with locations in Hyde Park and Lincoln Park, transformed this space into a bar where locals could become regulars, buoyed by a large patio with heated floors. It’s one of the best winterized patios in Chicago. Also, inside lies the Alderman, a bar within a bar for more serious cocktails and an idea spot for dates or for folks who detest sunlight (the space is dark and windowless)." - Eater Staff
"Pilsen Yards is a mostly Mexican spot that recently took over the Monnie Burke’s space in Pilsen. Monnie’s had a great back patio, and Pilsen Yards has taken full advantage. They added a retractable roof, lots of heaters, and installed a heated floor. This restaurant has a very detailed IG post letting you know how warm the patio feels based on the temperature outside. During single digits, it felt about 60 degrees. So, by our calculations this week it will feel like the Spring Break you’re not going on this year." - adrian kane
