Hidden tap is really a hidden location down a long road in the suburb of Cary. Super local bar location. So local that when you walk in they give you a look to make sure its not someone they know. We went during Karaoke night and had a blast. Nothing special just a local bar to relax at.

Great prices! The atmosphere is relaxing. This is the cleanest bar I've ever been to. The bar stools are so comfortable.

I was originally gonna go to Dead End while out in Fox River Grove on a Metra trip a few weeks back…read moreto watch some of the NFL games, but when I realized I was running out of time till my next train would arrive, I checked this store out instead. Really good selection as far as microbrews go, but I thought it was a little bit of a turnoff that there hardly were any sales going on, vs. other stores carrying a good bit of microbrews and craft beer. Still, I have to give this store credit, since it wasn't bad. And I even picked one up to go. If you don't feel like trekking to say a Binny's or other grocery chain store(Jewel, etc.) to get beer, this isn't a bad local option to get craft beer at. I'd hope the owner would somewhat step up the number of sales they do, since I noticed much fewer vs. other independent stores carrying craft beers for whatever weird reason. Their wine selection also appeared to be good from what I saw of it, but I paid less attention to that section since I'm not much into wine.

Unethical, do not patronize. Agree that over priced. Additionally, I placed an order for a bottle…read moreof wine for pickup from Uber Eats and couldn't get in to get for 4-5 days. Called store and the clerk said it was already picked up. Not by me. He told me nothing he could do, so get a refund from UE. Contacted UE and they said no refund unless 48 hours within time store indicated order complete- I couldn't know they did. UE said store would have to scan my ID to release order. Called store, nope- they don't look at or scan ID. They said someone must've come in and "given my name." No way. They did nothing to correct or take responsibility. Avoid this place and shop elsewhere.

Loved the fact that he asked if we had ever been - he gave us the low down and explained the drink menu. They have lots of different choices for beer & spirits. The Amaretto Stone Sour (receipt said 10 oz for $12 - it was more like 5 ounces) & Vodka Elderflower ($6) were both very good. They also sell spirits by the bottle, hats & other items. Great place to pick up something local! The place doesn't appear to serve food and they have a couple seating areas away from the bar both inside & outside where you congregate with friends. I will admit I had a tough time picking just one drink to have so I will be back!

It was our first time coming to Spirit Water for a Friday night Funnier By The Lake Comedy show…read more The atmosphere is very laid back, but festive with the lights and layout, and I love the comfy couch corner area. I appreciate that the place is dog friendly too. The owners and staff here are fantastic and make you feel immediately welcomed. They take time to educate you on their selections and share some of the unique history of this place. I enjoyed the bourbon, on ice, very much, and also tried a shot of amaretto and a tequila. I will definitely be back to try more of their spirits, as everything I tried was smooth, flavor filled, and just left me wanting more! Thank you, Spirit Water, and Funnier By The Lake Comedy, for a memorable Friday night experience.

What a nice time. We met friends at the Wild Onion - haven't been there is probably 20 years or…read moremore. It looks very much the same - there is a bar in front with stools around the bar and high top tables. The restaurant is in the back. They have a nice menu with lots of variety and some gluten-free options. Our server came by the table right away to take our drink orders. I ordered a vodka martini - what the bartender made was something called a French martini - I sent it back and they brought me what I'd originally ordered. It was very good. I read through many of the reviews before ordering. My usual at a place like this is a hamburger. But the reviews were very mixed so I decided I would try the Bourbon Chicken Sandwich with tater tots. My partner had a Reuben made with turkey (a Rachel - not on the menu) and sweet potato fries. My Bourbon Chicken was really good. In fact, I recommend it. The Rachel was also very good. The sweet potato fries were outstanding. The tots were okay. It's very rustic in the dining room, which fits very well with their menu. It's also very large. The service was outstanding. And, it was pretty quiet in the dining room so the five of us could have good conversations without having to yell.

My husband and I just went to the Tipsy Goat last weekend. It was his second time, my first. Right…read moreaway the bartender acknowledged us once we sat down and whipped up four drinks in record time. At first glance, it seems like a quaint little bar and that's it. But I was pleasantly surprised by the food too. I got the cheeseburger sliders which were really good. Moist, tasty, and the perfect size for a slider. I ordered fries on the side and wasn't expecting the portion size. They gave an entire basket of fries that easily could have fed the party of four adults I was there with. Crispy, flavorful, loved them. The cheese curds were also great, paired with a sauce recommended by the bartender. I wish I could remember what it was, definitely some type of sweet/salty almost teriyaki sauce. So, so good. I don't drink alcohol much so I can't comment on the drinks but everyone we were there with seemed to enjoy them. So much so, they ordered several. Great vibes here. They had the front window open for a beautiful sixty degree day. Music was on. Everyone there both staff and other customers were all really nice and we had a great time. Turns out our bartender was the owner of the bar and he was just fantastic. Attentive but not overly so. I'd recommend this place if you're looking for a great place for a drink and a bite to eat.

They allowed complete customization. The appetizers were perfect for happy hour before dinner which by choice looked over the bar with TV's during the baseball game. Dinner was set up perfectly with salad, great bread, specifically chosen wine on the tables. Then for food pastas, meat choices of chicken, sausages and meatballs with full desert. They even went to the extra effort of making multiple special meals for our gluten free friends. The staff, waitresses,,bartenders were friendly and courteous. Ownership was present to oversee and verify everything was going great. Between the high tier food, drinks, special service the entire cost was almost 1/2 of similar pricing from some of the banquet halls. Do not overlook this option! Making my daughter this happy can be challenging. Thankyou Vince and all your great staff for a special night! Jerry E
