50 Best Pubs near Berwyn

“Great bartenders with a great atmosphere.“

“I just loved the St Paddy's pop-up it was kid friendly and we all had a blast!“

“Very nice if you like a small hole in the wall take place not a very large variety of beer extremely friendly especially the bartender Carol always hooking everyone up with free food not always but I think you know what I mean if you want a nice quiet place to hang out in Berwyn Illinois that's the spot to go to“

“Better than expected. I enjoyed the jalapeno cheddar brat and my daughter loved the pretzel and the cheese filled polish sausage.Beer selection, though limited and bottle only, included some European beers which went well with the food.It's more of a gambling facility than a restaurant, but it was good for what it was.Service was excellent and prices were half off when we went so it was quite inexpensive which provided great value for what we got.“

“Me and a friend stopped here before a concert at the Radius, and this will be the official pregame for anytime I have a concert there. Great food, excellent drink selections, friendly staff...highly recommend!“

“Delicious food & great menu. The service is top notch! The Italian beef is a favorite of mine when visiting from Cincinnati. 🙂“

“Great quiet old world English pub“

“First time at Spiteful brewing and it was exactly what you might expect from an independent brewery. Good selection of beers, good location and it looks like they have a very nice outdoor seating area out front.

This day was not conducive to outdoor seating, but I imagine this is a great location during the summer months.“

“Finally treated ourselves - not disappointed!! Hubby got the chicken piccante & I had the chicken marsala - both were excellent! The pasta fagioli was so good we got a quart to take home. The service and atmosphere were also great - we will definitely be back!!“

“Good food! Great atmosphere.“

“Not one to go out on a weekend night - but the guy working the door was the best, super friendly guy without the doorman ego and went out of his way to play our requests for song. We had a large group, great drinks and bartenders - super fun vibe.“

“I can't recommend this pub enough for any locals or tourists. It has a cozy vibe with a hint of dive and a great outdoor space that compliments what makes Chicago great. Not to mention the patio is dog friendly z you are sure to have a blast and make new friends!“

“We recently attended an engagement party at Goldie’s. The party was originally scheduled as an outdoor event but was forced to go inside at the last minute. Goldie’s ownership allowed the party to use their location, opened early and provided bar service for all attendees. All with less than 24 hours notice! Claire, the bartender, came in early and was exceptional. Highly recommend for special events or to just stop in for a drink!“

“We hosted my husband’s 50th birthday last weekend there and I can’t say enough good things!!! From start to finish an incredible experience and so much fun! I plan events for a living and working with Ma O’Briens was the easiest, most helpful and amazing experience.“

“Awesome bar for starters. The people, the vibe, and the drinks are all top-notch. There’s a little sweetheart named Katie who works weekends—she’s incredibly down-to-earth and goes out of her way to make everyone feel welcome. Honestly, she treats us like family.

I haven’t tried the food yet, but I’m definitely looking forward to it. If you’re looking for a laid-back South Side pub with great energy, this is the spot.“

“One of the absolute best venues in the city, top 3 favorite for me. Been here for 15 shows and every single one has sounded amazing. They clearly care about the acoustics at Audiotree, and you can very cleanly hear everything any given band plays or sings. Consistently highlights great local talent, up and coming touring acts, and partners with music festivals for ultra intimate shows of bigger artists. MJ Lenderman and Geese??“

“Great music and awesome pint of Guinness“

“great time on our first trip there tonight! Special shout out to Savanah! she was our awesome waitress!“

“This place has a cool, hip vibe and it’s fun to eat at the communal tables. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great variety of beer and creative craft cocktails. Food is beautifully plated and delicious - make sure to try the potatoes, baby gem salad and hanger steak.“

“I appreciated the hostess & manager accommodating our small group without a reservation. Our ‘hour’ began late ( into the hour already at start ) and had to end ten minutes early to allow prep time for the next customers with an appointment for the room, but the atmosphere was pleasant and welcoming, and we felt safe. First visit; will return. Thanks, Greenlight!“

“I went to hear Irish music and it was amazing! Can’t wait to go back!“

“Great place to grab a libation after a Wrigley Field event.“

“Hands down, the best bar food in the neighborhood! Pretzel-crusted walleye is ridiculous along with the olive-sized steamed mussels. But as good as the food, the bartenders crush it even more. Responsive, accommodating and authentically friendly.“

“Everyone is kind enough to leave me alone.“

“Stopped in for a cold glass of beer after a long day at work, and it totally hit the spot. Our server, Lana, was so cool and attentive that we ended up staying for some food too. The beer and food selection were both really solid, with something for everyone. The vibe was super chill, the crowd was laid-back, and the prices were very reasonable. We’ll definitely be back! after a long day“

“Music atmosphere people and drinks!“

“Great place to eat and drink. And have one of our meetings in the backroom.“

“Wow what an experience, we was visiting from the UK and had to see the famous bar, instantly we was welcome. Food was amazing, the bartenders was so lovely and even let my son go behind the bar for a photo. Really friendly ❤️ locals was really nice too x Thank you“

“The best food !!!Thank you guy.“

“such sweet owners! they helped me celebrate my 20th birthday last year with the sign and some catered food, and this year (i have covid☹️) they gave drinks on the house for my family who went to celebrate in honor of me! i can't wait to come visit once i'm out of quarantine!!“

“The karaoke on Sunday is a lot of fun! The man who runs it has a lot of music! In the beginning if it is slow he will let people do a few songs in a row. But he is also very fair. So once it’s getting busy he will space it out and get everyone in but I have never been to a place that would allow that. He is a great singer himself so I guess he enjoys taking care of people and allowing them to warm up when it’s slow. That’s cool! And the people who come are damn good singers and nice. There are no divas here but some damn good talent. A rare gem!“

“I am a great bartender 🍺 🎧 DJ MA 🎧“

“Best buffalo garlic chicken wings I’ve ever had hands down! Great atmosphere and great service!“

“Larry's is always a welcome and relaxing venue. It's a very cozy and intimate vibe.

They host a lot of fun events and activities like Wednesday night trivia and movie nights, and they always decorate for the season.

Bar staff are very friendly and welcoming and can handle a crowd.

They have a range of flavorful cocktails and beer selection and recently added some sandwich and food options from the local Uptown Deli.“

“I came in from out of state and I loved this place. My favorite bar in the neighborhood that I got to visit. Went back a couple times throughout my visit. They even changed one tv for me to watch my OKC Thunder game. Thank you for making me feel welcome.“

“My partner and I stayed in the neighborhood and kept coming back to Floyd’s. The drinks were great, food was yummy, and prices were fair. Reminded me of the neighborhood bars in my hometown, Baltimore. Marti, made us feel at home with great service! Def coming back again“

“This distressed traveler on a scooter, needing to pee, a beer, cigarette, and an electric outlet. Heard of, knew of Bucktown Pub 🍻 from passing by. This was my first time in. Ordered my beer. Told of my dilemma about having a nearly dead battery on a scooter And was in search of and permission for using an electrical outlet that was met by very many ears, one of them spoke up and said, there is an outlet right there. I asked if I could use it, and someone else (who I'd not met until they were on their way out) gave his permission. Immediately it felt comfortable, at home, welcomed. Later on, I was met by the tamale guy and man oh man this guy better not go anywhere! some of the greatest tamales I've ever had!!“

“Magoo's is letting the band Malinche play on August 25th knowing that a member of that band, Calvin Hobbes, is a rapist. Watch out for businesses that won't watch out for you ladies.“

“This is an excellent place to eat. The food is outstanding and not at all what you would expect as bar food. The beer is could and there are lots of choices, even really great gluten free beer! The service could not be better. I can't wait to go back.“

“It was nice 👍 food and drinks 🍹 😊 good“

“I usually stop here since it's on my mail route and I can tell you that they have great food and great drinks I had their buttermilk chicken sandwich with portage park tater tots and it was very good I highly recommend this spot espically for happy hour also the staff is amazing they always make me feel welcome“

“The ambiance is first class and I feel out of place to watch early morning soccer there but the staff is very friendly and the chairs are most comfortable. The on tap choices are very good and the food is delicious. Ample tv screens to accommodate your team of choice. I highly recommend this place.“

“The staff was great and people were amazing! However... someone hit my car across the street and damaged it; hit and run 🥲“

“Teresa was outstanding great atmosphere“

“The penultimate neighborhood bar with plenty of characters, shenanigans, and fun! It's our "Just One More" place. Bikers, Rock Stars, and Divas will feel right at home. Live music most weekends, outdoors in the summer in a large parking lot. Everybody who knows, goes there. John & Sparklyn are good people!“

“Awesome Chicago Dogs and atmosphere! Great waitress and warm, cozy and fun atmosphere!“

“Such an amazing spot! A great addition to the neighborhood! The service is amazing, everyone who works here is so friendly, kind and attentive. The food is great (the santi spring rolls is a hit on the salty side however). This spot is not just great as a local spot, but also worth a trip. The outdoor patio area is so nice and has music and indoors, there’s a really charming atmosphere with a fireplace. Love it!“

“Love the decor and the people are so nice and of course there’s Harry 😊“
