The Happy Tapper

Meet us where the neighborhood gathers


When the Mad Tapper first opened in Northlake in 1999 it was the only bar in the neighborhood.

Nearly 25 years later, this casual, friendly pub is still the place where you want to come when the game is on. Relax with a basket of Mad Tapper’s famous buffalo wings in homemade sauce and watch non-stop sports on multiple TVs.

Things get kicked up a notch on the weekends when a live DJ keeps the dance floor jamming.

This is the kind of neighborhood bar where everyone knows each other and the band lets you hop onstage to play the drums!
