Yes. And then years later I became their Budweiser rep LOL. The place changed owners many times.

I like the TBK on Harlem, been there a bunch. Not sure I'd going to the Higgins one in the AM, they have had some drama there.

Been in a few brawls at the Higgins location lmmfao.
Most memorable one being. Big ass pollack picked my brother up off his feet using his hands around my brothers neck. Had to hit that big MFer with a metal garbage can then a bottle across his head.
Big ass dude like The Rocks size.

Belmont / Harlem location was always my favorite TBK of them. Before it was TBK it was called “ cocked eyed gringos” lol

 

[Pro Stock John]

lol that's the one I've been too. The beef is great.

Are all 3 still operational? I really only want the one at Higgins Harlem because I would leave teasers when I close, of course..

 

[daturbosix]

Sucks but I heard Kings at foster and Milwaukee closed? . Oye. I spent too many nights there...

 

[Jamesv82]

We also had a local Mexican place that was open 24 hrs, always good and shorter wait time then the castle

 

[HeavyG]

Agreed and forgot about this place

Havent been there in 15 years or so, cant believe they are still giving away the free food. When I was frequenting HB, it was $15 or $20 to get it and it was all the beer (domestic bottled beer) and food for free. If you wanted a Corona or Heineken it was like $1. We would get hammered AF in there with free beer.

Been there a bunch of times, my guy Mike owns a few houses on 33rd and 34th and Halsted.
Plenty of late drunken nights in that neighborhood at his house or Mitchell's bar. I'm fan of their steak nachos.

Shawn - is there a hood you don't know or haven't partied in??

What year did you go to studio? I went in 97 - 2000 when it was prime n tender then bounced there in 2001-2003.

I'm not sure Yelp would be probably accurate.

 

[Pro Stock John]

Per Yelp TBK on Harlem is only open til 1-2AM depending on the day

 

[daturbosix]

Which Harlem one?

King gyro?

It’s going to be reopening soon. I’m about 5 mins away from them


A few places in Chinatown are open 24h or close at 5am. Three happenings comes to mind.

Bro, saying I know a lot of people is an understatement! I have friends and have partied/hung out pretty much in every neighborhood on the north, west and south sides. I have lived all over the north and west side growing up, but will always claim Humboldt and Albany Park as thats pretty much where I grew up per say. Only area I really never hung our or partied is the east side and only know 1 person that grew up and still lives on the east side.

My Studio days were probably when you were bouncing there. I'd say 2000ish-2006ish off and on.
