We are thrilled to announce the geodesic domes at Hackneys on Harms are open and ready for your perfect holiday gathering. There is a $10 fee to dine in the domes outside. No reservations for indoor seating.

Hackney's is a classic American restaurant that serves authentic American food like burgers and fries, and has been a popular spot in Chicago since the Prohibition Era. Of all the amazing dishes here, one of the most popular is the Hackney Burger. This is a half-pound grilled burger served on two slices of rye bread, and is one of the reasons Hackney's has become so famous. Another delicious dish that stands out from the crowd includes Hackney's Original French Fried Onions. The french fried onions have placed in the top three onions rings in the country consistently, despite not even being rings! If you want to experience authentic classic American cuisine at a restaurant that's been serving America for 76 years, Hackney's is the place to go.

    1). We are frequent diners at various Hackney’s locations and quality of food on this visit was well below acceptable (Beef on one burger was raw! Cold and red!) 2) While removing a plate through the top opening of the dome the server (accidentally) dropped food on our guest and his coat-it was a mess. 3) After saying we no longer wanted that entree/burger server offered to take it off our bill (?) 4). Expected better food and accommodation after the issues we had.

    These domes are so beautiful and my kids love our tradition of going every year. Every seat has a blanket and there are heaters so you aren’t cold. Plus the food is great!

    Excellent experience would go again anytime. Service was fantastic even though we were in a dome outside and it was 20 degrees! Dome was slightly cool for a cotton shirt , but they provided blankets so no worries. Friends in sweaters were fine. Loved it!

    We’re so glad to hear you had a great experience James, even with the chilly 20-degree weather. We're happy the blankets helped keep you warm – we want everyone to be cozy while enjoying their time! It’s wonderful to hear you loved it, and we can’t wait to have you back for another memorable visit.

    We love Hackney's and have been eating there for decades. We were disappointed to learn that they are changing their menu. We love their bison burger (low fat/tastes same as beef). The waitress informed us that they have discontinued the bison burger and will no longer offer it. Bummer. Our meals were still very good.

    Thank you so much for being loyal Hackney’s fans for all these years – we truly appreciate you! We’re really sorry to hear you were disappointed about the bison burger. We totally get how much you loved it, and we’ll be sure to pass along your feedback.

    Always a fun experience to dine in the geodesic domes. Warm and cozy. Decorated so cute for the holidays. Just wish we could fit in a few more family members as the limit is 6 people. Still a lot of fun and very festive! The food at this Hackney's is always great, far superior to Lake Ave. This was our second visit of the season and we will be back. So grateful that we can make a reservation for these domes.

    Thank you so much for the great review Karen! We’re so glad you enjoyed the cozy, festive atmosphere in the domes and the food! We completely understand how the limited space in the domes can be a bit frustrating, especially when you want to share the experience with more family members. We’re so happy to hear you’re making the domes a tradition, and we can’t wait to have you back for more fun and delicious meals!
