Bodega Taqueria y Tequila - River North

River North · Mexican/Tequila Bar Community-sourced, unverified
📍 407 N Clark St, Chicago, IL 60654

Bodega Taqueria y Tequila's River North location took over the old Epic Burger space at Clark and Kinzie in summer 2023, and it runs the same split-personality format as the chain's West Loop original: a counter-service taco shop up front, a hidden speakeasy lounge tucked behind an unmarked entrance for the nights you want more than a quick taco.

$$
The hidden speakeasy lounge behind an unmarked entrance, same format as the chain's West Loop flagship — plus a genuinely stacked recurring-deals calendar (Margarita Monday, Taco Tuesday, daily happy hour) confirmed straight from the brand's own site.

This is the location with the real, confirmed deals — per the brand's own site, happy hour runs Monday through Friday, 4 to 7 p.m., with weekday lunch specials also on the books, though the lunch pricing itself wasn't published anywhere found. Chicago on the Cheap's on-the-ground reporting fills in the specifics: $4 tacos, $10 specialty cocktails, and $7 Patron shots during that happy hour window, plus a standing Taco Tuesday running three classico tacos for $11 and a Margarita Monday at $5 a frozen glass. That's a genuinely good lineup of recurring deals for a taco-and-tequila spot, and unlike the West Loop sister location, these are confirmed directly through the brand's own River North page rather than inferred from a different address.

Regular hours run Monday through Wednesday 11:30am-11pm, Thursday to midnight, Friday to 2am, Saturday noon-2am, Sunday noon-11pm — though as always with a bar/restaurant combo, confirm before building a night around the later hours. This is the Florida-born chain's second Chicago location, not a Chicago original.
