About this restaurant

Great for outdoor dining
Charming
Neighbourhood gem

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.

Our table was practically in the parking lot; no ambiance at all. I would rather have eaten inside at Hackney’s on Lake - and BTW there were at least 2 domes available in the ‘courtyard’ the whole time we were there. Did this several times last year & enjoyed the experience. I won’t be dining at the domes again unless I can be assured of a dome inside the courtyard. Waitstaff was great but the experience was very disappointing
