About

Since 1984, we’ve prided ourselves on being a cornerstone of the community. We also pride ourselves on our commitment to quality. That is why all of the ingredients we use are carefully selected from reputable suppliers, which in turn allows us to provide you with fresh, quality products.

Our motto has always been: “If we won’t eat it, we don’t serve it!” Our sincere gratitude is extended to all of our past, current and future patrons for enabling the growth of our business.

LaCoco’s Pizza and Sports Club, located off of 47th Street in Brighton Park, we are your perfect neighborhood sports club and restaurant. LaCoco’s is where friends meet to enjoy classic cocktails crafted by our team of expert bartenders or craft beers brewed by local breweries.

Home to the $12.99 Family Pizza. LaCoco’s robust menu features refined sports-bar fare and new twists on tavern-style dining and pair perfectly with your favorite craft beer and specialty drinks. Whether you’re enjoying a family meal, date-night out or cheering on the home team, come to LaCoco’s Pizza and Sports Club for delicious food and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

Because of your continuous support, we are able to bring you homemade sandwiches, pizza, pasta and our very own Homemade Italian Ice. With your encouragement, came our catering menu and LaCoco’s Party Rooms, serving you and your guests for any occasion.

With our patron in mind, we have decided to provide a place to relax and unwind – LaCoco’s Sports Club, featuring an expanded menu, a downtown atmosphere, friendly environment, large screen televisions featuring the daily sporting events and seating for over 100 people. As we continue to grow, we never forget what is most important to us. You, the customer.

Thanks again for your continued support.

Sincerely,

The LaCoco Family
