Chicken Tenders are the kind of no-nonsense favorite that somehow still steal the spotlight—crispy, craveable, and gone suspiciously fast once they hit the table 😏🍗 Franklin Tap knows some classics never need an introduction.

Just Tapped: Off Color Brewing B**r For Dealing With Relocation
Off Color is b**r for Chicago. The Bears are football for Chicago. So if one has to go to NW Indiana, the other will make a b**r in homage to NW Indiana. This hazy, dry-hppped wheat ale, takes inspiration from the classic hoppy wheat from NW Indiana.

We know Off Color will always call Chicago home. Let's hope the Bears do too.

Looking for a spot to watch the Chicago Bears Monday night game? Swing into Franklin Tap. All screens with full sound and $2 off drafts.

Bread Pudding has a loyal following for a reason: cinnamon sugar bread pudding, vanilla ice cream, and caramel sauce doing the kind of sweet talking nobody argues with. One bite in, and it's easy to see why this favorite keeps getting all the attention 😏🍨

Mahi-Mahi Tacos are bringing the kind of laid-back confidence that doesn't need a big introduction—just a seat, an appetite, and maybe a second look before the first bite disappears. Franklin Tap knows some cravings like to keep things casual and still show off a little 😏🌮

Just Tapped: 3 Sheeps Brewing Roll Out The Barrel
If there's a better Midwest b**r for the season, I don't know what it is. Made by Sheyboygan, WI's 3 Sheeps, this is a classic Oktoberfest Märzen aged in bourbon barrels. Big malt flavor with accentuated vanilla, oak & caramel flavor. Tradition, and indulgence.
