On Mondays double pints of beer are $6, another crowd-pleaser. Burgers are $5 (real or vegetarian), almost half the price of what they normally are. My absolute favorite T’s special is the Monday night specials. My suggestion is to skip dessert and go straight for the drinks, especially the double pint beers that, depending on the night, you can get for a steal of a deal. They usually only have one dessert, which changes often, isn’t made at the restaurant, and are not very good.
If you’re looking for a great dessert to finish off your meal however, T’s is not the place to get one. On the lighter side, they do serve some tasty salads as well. Their typical bar foods like burgers, blackened chicken sandwich, cheese fries and nachos are just as yummy. The three-dish noodle delight comes in a huge bowl served with a Caesar salad that is just as delicious. The menu has gotten better over the years and the macaroni and cheese is to die for-one of the best in the city. However, the quality of food attracts straight couples during the quieter weekday nights when T’s mostly acts as a restaurant. On any given night, and especially weekends, T’s is typically 90% women with 10% being the gay men who love them. In summer months T’s offers a huge outdoor patio that is often packed full, leaving the inside of T’s almost empty. The back room sports a jukebox, pool table, smaller bar, and some tables but is mostly an open space meant for the crowds that pack the place on weekends. T’s front room is used as the restaurant area and also has a full-size bar. Located at the southeast corner of Clark Street and Winnemac Avenue in Andersonville, T’s is a lesbian’s dream when it comes to eye candy-I swear that all of the city’s attractive lesbians can be found at T’s on any night of the week. Instead, T’s is all about the ladies! Whether you’re there to play or just observe, you will not be disappointed with the selection. I’m usually not a huge fan of gay bars and come from a city unlike Chicago where they’re all pretty much the same and geared towards gay men. There aren’t enough good things that I can say about T’s Bar & Restaurant.
