Crafted 1979 Bottle Shop & Tap Room

Always excellent and knowledgeable service. A really cool and comfortable place to hang out and drink excitement beers. I love walking around and building 6 packs. Good sandwich shop next door if you’re hungry.

Great staff and good options! Came on a Revolution Brewing release night. I sat at the bar and had a blast! The staff was more than accommodating. Lots of people but not overbearing. Very comfortable crowd. Friendly people, good beers, relaxing time! Highly recommend!

Great spot to find crafts from Illinois and beyond. Have an array of liquor to choose from too. Employees are humble and easy to talk to. They have pinball machines and a bar if you're interested in hanging for a while. They also allow dogs into the building!

It has been far too long since the last time I was at Crafted but I was glad to have come in for a stop on the day of fun for my husband's birthday!

Crafted 1979 has always since day one been a supporter of non for profits, featuring Kick the Keg to donate funds. We have enjoyed coming for many of those days.

The local brewery support with unique tap handle featured and countless cans and bottles to sample loads of fun and flavorful choices. You are guaranteed to find something for everyone!

There is no food on site but bring your own or order in from countless surrounding locations. That makes it fun. If you make friends with your table neighbors, you can even share!

Be a pinball wizard with 4 to choose from. While I am not skilled in that arena, I still enjoy a good laugh at my attempts!

Next time I have my eye on a couple choice bottles of bourbon to CRAFT(ed) the perfect cocktail at home! See you sooner than later!

I have been to crafted to buy before on a number of occasions but never to just stop in and have a beer. I do have to say the staff were FUN! It was a nice way to just sit back and relax, forget your worries fora couple hours and try some things I never had before. Would I go back? Absolutely!!!! The prices were reasonable too! A nice neighborhood place that is very welcoming.

Great place, great people, great bartenders. They always have a great rotating tap selection and tons of selections to choose from to bring home including beer, bourbons, and many more. Always meet great people there and have some great conversations. Stop in if you never have! It’s a small hidden gem.

Amazing craft beer offerings from all the best and or up and coming brewers. The website is relatively easy to navigate and order.

The best part of their service is you can buy individual cans as opposed to packs making variety sampling a new thing for me and my wife. No more commiting to a pack of beers you may or may not love.

Whether your picking up an order from online or going in to browse shop you can have a seat and try some beer from whats on tap.

Great place that is open! Staff is really great and knowledgeable. You have the ability to get beers on draft and with 12 on tap there is something you will find for every pallet. Great selection of rarer beers at normal prices.
Best part about this store is most things can be purchased by the can!!! This is FANTASTIC for anyone looking to try different beers without drinking the same thing regularly.

Wonderful atmosphere. Small but with good music. Great tap selection. Okay some pinball!

Great place for local draft beers and a large selection of craft cans and bourbon. Buy one can or more. Pinball machines too.

Great service, and the staff are extremely knowledgeable. When u go there they treat you like a regular even though I can only get there every so often. The owner is always there and engages all his customers. It is by far, the one bottle shop that goes above and beyond and I've been to them all.

My absolute favorite place to grab a drink, whether to take home or enjoy there. The selection is vast and you’ll no doubt find beverages there you’ve never seen before. My husband doesn’t drink beer so we appreciate that there are always other choices on tap…seltzers, meads, ciders, etc. I’ve discovered new beers there that are now my favorites as well. The owners are wonderful and give back to the community often, and everyone on staff there is super friendly and knowledgeable. Every time I go in there it’s like having drinks with friends.

Awesome variety of beers on tap, including 2-3 stouts year round. Plenty of take home options too.

Went in -tasted 5 of beers. . All good the service was great and the person tending was very informational gave us a tasting of some of their other liquors . Enjoyed our visit will recommend and I have no doubts that I will be back.

This is the best bottle shop in the Chicagoland area! You can always find some of the newest and freshest releases here. They always have a great tap selection as well with some rare/hard to find releases. They recently added 5 pinball machines and have other fun theme nights throughout the week. If you are looking for excellent beer, bourbon, cider, or hard seltzers, this is the place!

Awesome craft beer selection. Great and helpful staff. Cool interior with pinball machines and unique places to sit. I wish they had a tv playing something interesting instead of just the beer menu. In house taps can be a little pricier.

Craft’d 79 is definitely our go to place to share some great beer’s together and with our friends. The staff is always friendly and ready to help with choices and a taste prior to your purchase. Very small and quaint and well stocked. Will be back soon.

Just a great place, always solid tap list, killer whiskey selection, good cocktails and awesome service!

Great people. Always helpfull if you need help or recommendations. Always a good time.

Great selection of craft beers and whiskey. Also of decent variety of pinball machines.
