I always get too hungry when I get to the banshee to take pictures but it’s amazing prices are kinda steep but the proportions are massive. You can easily share a sandwich with another person

The Banshee is a great downtown Chico bar and restaurant experience. It's a bar atmosphere, near the university with foot traffic you'll find a mix of patrons from students to white and blue collar, giving this place a kind of charm. It can be very loud when busy. Smallish menu, great food, healthy portions, many beers on tap, mixed drinks etc. Staff is great.

Parking: Parking close by can be tricky at times. Easier if willing to walk a few blocks.

My family and I went in on a Sunday night for dinner. Back section was closed and we tried to find seating in the main bar area. Really strange vibe and not welcoming at all in this place. The waitress was unfriendly and not helpful. We felt uncomfortable and left. The waitress followed us out of the restaurant and ask why I was staring at her and her friends at the bar. I don’t like to be stared down and told her that. I’ve had some good meals here but won’t be going back there. Would rather eat somewhere else after this experience.

The pulled pork was okay but the garlic fries were the best i’ve ever had.

Beer selection is great and the food is great quality. I'm not a fan of steak fries but they serve the fries crunchy and that's the only way I want them now.

The Banshee is always the best. There's an amazing bartender now that is so lovely and helpful I just have to call her out (even though I sadly neglected to get her name). I'm a new mom and haven't gotten out much lately, but she served me my first drink a few months after birth. She patiently helped me figure out what I could eat when my baby was facing some food issues, and she even remembered my drink order when I came in again. Banshee has always had the best food, but adding in this amazing service just makes it the obvious choice any time I'm going out. Thanks for helping a new momma feel like a grown up again!

They have it all dialed in. Consistency in food, drinks and atmosphere. I knew I would love the Banshee from my first visit 15 years ago.
