Jake's is a corner bar. It is everything a corner bar should be. Juke box, selection of beer, nothing too flashy. It is a wonderful place to have drinks with a couple of friends. Complaints- toilets a little sub-par! EW!

This place sucks. The people are dull, the bar is cramped even at half capacity, the service was slow, and the atmosphere is bland at best. The only decent thing there is the beer selection.

Great place to just hang out and be yourself after a long day! We toasted a friend's farewell from our workplace last week and had a blast. Keeping it simple and real! I can't believe I've lived so close to this place and never stopped in. I will be back again.

I love this bar. The jukebox is phenominal, lots of good rock and roll, and it's accessible, meaning your songs actually get played. Even when there's no money in the jukebox, the music selection is top notch.

By far the best bar period in Chicago...I previously lived in close proximity to the establishment, after moving to Chicago from Minnesota. I couldn't have wished for a better place to have as a place to go. I can't stress enough how great the owner, management, and employees are.. They were like a second family. Show up enjoy some great company and some great beer ranging from PBR to a Belgium import. The regulars are also some of the nicest and interesting people found in the Chicago area... Have a good one at Jake's
