Tap House Grill In Oswego Is Permanently Closed

OSWEGO, IL — Tap House Grill in Oswego served its last meal on Monday.

The restaurant published a Facebook post Monday morning announcing "with a heavy heart" that the location would close later that day.

"Unfortunately, with every factor impacting restaurants today, we are just not able to continue to make it work," the post read.

Tap House Grill opened at 123 W. Washington St. in 2008 with the idea of being a community-centered, upscale-yet-casual restaurant with "addictive food and creative brew," owner Mark Zych told Patch in 2020. Amid the pandemic, the space got a "needed a face-lift" after the Village Board approved an economic incentive and loan agreement of $100,000 with the restaurant owners.

"We have enjoyed being a part of this town and engaging with this community for many years, and this is not the outcome we wanted," the post read. "Thank you for all of the love and support over our time here, we appreciate every single customer and employee we've had!! We will miss you!!"

Plainfield's Tap House Grill also closed suddenly in January 2024. The restaurant remains open in Palatine, St. Charles and Lemont as well as at the Deerfield Golf Club, according to its website, which no longer lists the Oswego location.
