“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.“
“One the strip in Berwyn where there's a series of bars, along the metra train tracks. I got to check several out last month during the annual mini golf crawl. This place was pretty cool. Your standard sports bar yes, but a higher quality one. Lots of space, good amount of bar and table seating. Pretty good craft beer list, but all the classic domestics available as well. Plenty of TVs stationed all over for ideal sports viewing. One of the bigger spots overall on this Berwyn bar stretch, so it'd be ideal if you were looking to go out in the area and had a bigger group.“
“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.“
“Great experience while visiting Chicago over St Patty's weekend. Went with friends mid afternoon. We had reservations and luckily so because the place was packed. Ambiance is awesome. The food and drinks were top notch. I had a lamb pot pie. It came with a huge portion of bone marrow. The beef tartare was also amazing. Only pic I ended up getting while there. Still thinking about it. I hope to make it there again someday“
“Came here with some mates and had a grand time. Love the English pub aesthetic because it reminds me of me of my time living in the UK. Unbeknownst to us, we happened to stumble in this establishment at happy hour time where we had more than our fill of pints and bar food. I got the currywurst which was delicious. My mate got a pie which looked and tasted delectable as well. This is a good stop for food and drink with friends.“
“Great place and great drinks and food! For any other wheelchair users thinking of going: Bathrooms are not wheelchair accessible though so I’m not sure why it was listed that it was.Wheelchair accessibility: Bathrooms were labeled as wheelchair accessible on google so I just assumed they were. Had a good time and the staff helped as much as they could but just wanted to let people know!“
“All you can eat fish 'n chips days are not to sleep on.The fish is awesome. Batter is thin, golden and incredibly crunchy yet gentle. Very tasty and satisfying!The last time I was there I was quite disappointed by availability of whiskeys. Lots of options were out.Scottish imported beer was there as always and as always great pours with perfect foam head.“
“This was our first time in as we just moved to the neighborhood and we loved it! We had come from dinner but decided we wanted some snacks. We had the fried pickles, pretzels, & ice cream with churros-- I was surprised but oh so happy they had some kind of dessert. The bartender was a super nice guy-- very friendly. He checked on us often and never left us waiting for anything. The interior was really cute and about what you expect for a corner/ neighborhood bar. We will for sure be back-- so glad we gave it a try!“
“Great place and a great addition to the neighborhood. I’ve been here a few times now and enjoyed everything I’ve had. Great cocktails too. The couple that opened it are wonderful people. The staff and owners are super friendly and attentive.“
“Original cocktails in an original setting. Very good service, very good drinks that you won't find everywhere (their own touch on the classics too), good ingredients and bottles behind the bar. Pick your atmosphere: you can sit a the counter where it's more like a speakeasy, or at a table in the bustling bar, or in the lobby area of the apartment building where it's more like a quieter lounge. My favorite bar in uptown.“
“Okay, apart from the incredible beers and the fact that the sun shines in most of the day, Spiteful Brewing has the best bathroom in Chicago. 10/10 immaculate, cleanliness top notch, nice marmalade smell and quick dispensing paper towel machine. Epic. Would crawl in a deep hole in this bathroom to emerge like a phoenix through the ashes“
“Beth M was the most gracious, attentive and thoughtful employee. From the greeting to the final check, she was professional, kind AF, didn’t miss a beat and lemme talk about thorough. She made every customer feel like they were the only customer! That chica deserves a shoutout!Food and bevs - YUMMMMMMM AND vegetarian friendly“
“Chuy is the best bartender AND the fish'n'chips are the best in the city of Chicago, bar none! The cod is so fresh and flavorful, the batter is deep fried to perfection, the "chips" are perfectly done, tartar sauce delicious, and the cole slaw is pretty good too! Great beer selection and wines are good. We will be back!“
“This is a great neighborhood pub! We've come here for all the different meals and have not been disappointed. As they have expanded their menu it has only gotten better. Highlights are the pies, gin drinks, and the matcha latte. It's an unexpected fun spot for breakfast on weekdays too. If we lived even closer we would be here all the time. The ambiance is a traditional British pub which we love!“
“True Italian cooking in a bar like setting, has a private side room away from the bar and outdoor seating weather permitting. Long time established bar that has been remodeled to make it more family friendly.Parking: Newly asphalt parking lot that can get full, but street parking is close by.Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap spots right by entrance and no stairs inside.“
“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.“
“I go here 2-3 times a week to sing, drink and mingle with every customer. Everyone talks to you and the staff is the greatest line up anywhere. They love their customers and they like to have fun, as I have seen them dance to karaoke or just being silly with each other. The front deck is amazing and I can't wait for the fun meals once the kitchen is finished. I used to make this a once a year place, but now it is a must stop everytime if out for drinks. Thank you Eileen, Theresa, Karen, Darla and Tracy for making me feel welcome.“
“Really cool spot, library vibes with ww1 history. Honestly the spot is very nice from the inside. We got the curry fries, pretzel and the sticky toffee pudding. I loved everything besides the sticky toffee dessert - such hope for that but turned out to be a small cake w caramel and nothing more- It needed iced cream not whipped cream. Regardless this place is actually worth visiting for a casual beer and maybe fish n chips/bangers & mash. Cheers!“
“My experience at this bar was in the late 70s and early 80s. My husband, Michael and his partner Micky owned this place when my husband was in medical school. There was one of many brawls here that were just hilarious. One in February when the entire bar cleared into the street and “dibs” chairs were thrown everywhere. The police showed up and everyone was back in the bar like nothing happened. It had a liquor rack over the square bar. There was a neighborhood Elvis impersonator dancing on the bar. All at once the liquor rack crashed onto the bar. My husband proposed to me there. Always something with a cast of characters. I’m sure it’s very different now. Great memories ??“
“John is a great guy! And you cant beat the sevice or the ambient feel of a chicago neighborhood bar. We dont go often enough but when we do its spot on...Fyi John thanks for recovering the bithday girls purse( phone) and jackets .....she was a little buzzed ?“
“We met up with friends and family members on Thanksgiving weekend, and had a blast! The band was awesome and made the night- Patrick Bale and the Pale Ales- hope to see them play again soon! The atmosphere is so unique, with character and charm, also artsy and styled- fun for all ages. We didn’t eat but drinks (and shots!) were flowing. We’ll be back for sure.“
“This was my first time at Clancy's on 95th. It was clean and comfortable. The ladies behind the counter were delightful and easy going. A friend invited me to join her and a handful of her friends, to watch Billy Gray perform (he was fabulous with his deep voice. I listen to country music every once and awhile, but Billy had me moving my feet and tapping the table top to the music.)and we had a wonderful time. The beers were reasonably priced ($4 or $16 for a bucket of five. They give you wooden tokens to collect a cold beer when you are ready or the bucket if you prefer. My friend ordered a ham and cheese sandwich that was delicious and came with fries or in-house made potato chips. I would definitely go back.“
“Amazing little bar tucked behind Midway airport. Best Polish food around! Pierogis are to die for! Goulash soup, potato pancakes,& more! They have a Polish sampler platter that has a taste of everything you could want!! Go! Eat! Enjoy!!“
“We are in town from KC & we were told to come here to watch the Chiefs game. We walked into a great place 95% full of Chiefs fans for the game. We had 5 star service (thank you Gloria!) and really amazing food. (Burgers, sweet potato waffle fries & homemade sriracha mayo) Yes bar food menu but REALLY good. Everyone was super friendly & we just felt so welcome. I would come here again in a heartbeat & if I was a local I’d become a regular. Thanks guys!“
“I like to visit this place during the week because it is relatively chill on nights that are not fridays and saturdays. Their food is fantastic and they have a wonderful assortment of great drafts to choose from.pool table in the back and enough Miller highlife to supply an army of beer drinkers.They have an eclectic array of spirits! This joint is a must visit for those looking for a place to relax and feel classy while they do it.“
“We have been going to Michael’s over 15 years and it has a great atmosphere and great service . One of greatest Ruben , Serafín , Bryan and rest of staff including owner Nick. When we go it feels like family . We are very appreciative of how throughout the years nothing has changed we love Michael’s and really recommend it .“
“Goldie's is pretty divey but has all the ingredients needed for a solid night out. There's a dartboard, a pool table, and a TouchTunes, plus plenty of seating and friendly service. Drinks are a bit overpriced (the vodka sodas my friends and I ordered were definitely not worth the price), but they have a decent selection of beers on tap and the overall atmosphere makes up for it. Will be back for some chill nights out in the future.“
“What a great place. Arranged a small goodbye party this past weekend at BP. Virgil helped me to reserve tables in the back and was extremely easy to work with. The service throughout the day was quick and kind, despite a larger group than anticipated. The back patio is always a nice vibe, and prices are fair. One of my favorite spots in Chicago and definitely in Bucktown/Wicker.“
“Another great find. Adding Tuman's Tap to my Favorites list. Great bourbon selection and reasonable prices per pour. Pappy 10,12 &23. And many other good whiskeys. The food is also great. Fun staff! Recommend it ?Parking: Pay parking on main St. Other free parking near side streets.“
“The Cabin is a delightful neighborhood bar, that’s a cut above in cleanliness and decor. Staff are friendly and safety-focused, and the regulars care about the space and its patrons as though it were a second home. The Cabin has created a real sense of Community. Highly “
“I went to The Arrogant Frog last night for the first time and Ryan (the owner and bartender) was so welcoming, friendly, kind, helpful, and easy to talk to. I went on a first date (that was a huge success btw) and this was the perfect location. It was quiet, lots of room to sit and had great atmosphere/aesthetic, great drinks, great service, and great location! I will be coming back many times. Future Arrogant Frog regular right here!!“
“Great neighborhood bar. Really good bar food and service. The wings are perfectly crunchy. I'm betting double fried. 14 beer taps and some TVs.Vegetarian options: They have a veggie burger and a panini, hummus, and your typical fried veggie options.“
“Galway Arms is the best ‘local’ in Chicago! Great craft beers, great Guinness, Superb food - the Lamb Shank is 2nd to none and for brunch - the Full English Breakfast is fantastic! And the place is full of friendly regulars and the staff are the best!“
“Hi guys, just wanna let you guys know the garage bar in sandwiches is a great spot to have food. The service was OK. Not the best but the food makes everything better. Unfortunately the drinks were trash. I shouldn’t say trash because that’s understatement. They are horrible they taste nothing but syrup don’t get drinks or specialty drinks here get anything on tap that was better, good luck“
“The food was delicious, and the portions were large. You definitely get your money's worth. We had the lenten special creamed herring appetizer, and it was outstanding. The potato pancakes are more like a pancake; do not expect the Latke style of shredded potato with onion. They are served with both sour cream and apple sauce. The Sauerbraten has a non-traditional white gravy that tastes good but is definitely different from what I am used to. They have a very good selection of draft beers as well as a good selection of beers in bottles and cans. The Chicken Paprikash had very good flavor and richness to the gravy. The Goulash is tender, decadent, and has a little heat to it. The service can be slow, so it is not a place for a rushed meal. The restaurant area is clean and has a great ambiance. The restrooms are separated, with the men's bathroom being by the front of the restaurant area and the women's being towards the back. The men's room is a little cramped, but that is a necessity for space.Parking: Paid parking on the main street out front with free parking on the side streets in the nearby residential area.Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair friendly“
“Pleasantly surprised by this place located on Bryn Mawr between Kedzie and Kimball. The initial impression was that the prices on the menu seemed a bit high given its location. And some dishes like hummus plate, which consisted of cut up carrots and cucumber with pita bread and a large spoonful of hummus, was not worthwhile at $14. Same goes for a bowl of Irish cabbage soup for $10. Having said, other items like chicken wings and burgers were quite delicious and were worth paying little more for them. Given their great beer selection and wonderful cocktails, it is worth a visit.“
“The place is nice been going into the place here and there and everytime did not disappoint. The bartenders are very nice and cool, eager to play pool and vibe to make the time well spent. Supporting a female owned bar it's awesome to support.“
“Solid sports bar with an Irish twist, they've got darts, skeeball, and a few other games. Food is surprisingly good and the drink menu is solid.Layout wise it feels like they've got two bars with the center wall cut out. Makes for a lot of space and great throughput on drink service.Well worth your time if you're looking for a sports pub.“
“Awesome neighborhood bar in Roscoe! My wife and daughter wanted to visit a bookstore, so my son and I visited here just two doors down. It was pretty busy for 3 pm, but we got a hi top table and placed our orders right away. We had a couple of Old Styles, and I tried the Krombacher pilsner. It was the beer of the month and very good. My wife and daughter joined us about an hour later and had a couple of drinks. This seemed to be a less expensive bar than most we visited in Chicago. That's always a good thing! Service was outstanding! I can't get over these beautiful Chicago bars. Long and narrow. Awesome architecture. Perfect setup here at Village Tap! Will definitely try and make it back here on our next visit to Chicago.“
“The food at Saban's can't be beat. We had the pork chops. They were cooked to perfection, delicious, beautiful presentation, plentiful amounts enough for another meal. The service was great. And the prices are like going back in time. I seriously don't know why anyone would want to eat any place else.“
“If your into dive bars, this place is a must!!! As soon as I walked in, the first thing that I noticed was the patrons. Everyone was in the their 'fave' seats, I was very particular about where I chose to sit. I sat down, none of the patrons barked or grumbled at me, I guess I'm in a 'safe' seat. I was very intentional about speaking to the bartender John and trying to 'squeeze' into one of the convos that involved the patrons. After a few drinks, I felt like the vibe in the room was loosening up. I asked John if I could take pics with my 35. He said, "There's no one in here with a 'side piece', take as many pics as you want". I made an announcement to the bar. I said that I would be taking pics of the bar only and these pics are exclusively for me. Everyone was Kool about it. But one guy insisted that I take a selfie with him. I was honored!“
“I live nearby and had been meaning to check out this place, finally got around to it after almost a year and it's a fantastic neighborhood spot! Friendly folks of all backgrounds who go out of the way to chat you up, reasonable drink prices, cute dogs, nice bartender...what more could you ask for? I'll be back soon!“
“This is one of my go to neighborhood bars with my fiancé! They have a special on the menu each weekday and it's always slightly different so you never get bored with the menu. During the summer time I love sitting at the patio with our dog. The service is pretty good as well. Definitely recommend as a chill go to neighborhood bar to grab a bite to eat and hangout with friends“
“we still had a great time at our show, very cute place, but the staff was a little bit rude to be honest :-/ not in just a direct/blunt way, but just flat-out rude in sort of a pretentious way is the only way i can put it. people have off days so i’m not discrediting the venue at all!“
“The Corrib Irish Pub is the perfect place for a night out or just simply to grab a drink. The atmosphere is amazing and the music is great. It's an old school style pub with great service and delicious drinks. It's definitely worth a visit.“
“This is a great place to watch a game and play darts. The bartenders were really cool. I asked one of them to make me a sweet drink and they made me a cool drink that looked like cotton candy and it tasted really good. So they can make drinks that aren't the typical bar drinks as well! They were also quick to get us new drinks. You didn't have to wait at the bar for 20 min.“
“This is the perfect neighborhood bar. Cash only! Bartenders are friendly and properly trained to make drinks. No food, but you can order door dash or whatever. Good beer list at reasonable prices. Pool Tables are free. Love that this is in walking distance from our house.“
“Stumbled on the polish food buffet today. So so good. The owner is right here and everything is home made. The beef barley soup was outrageously delicious. The potato pancake was very flavorful. The chicken breast amazing. Cabbage & Sausage delicious. Everything was great!“
“The James Joyce is a local treasure. It’s the epitome of an Irish pub; friendly, good service, and a social gathering place. The owners have made it this way, and they will come by to meet you and welcome you. They have events like the upcoming “1/2 way to St Patrick’s Day”, and it’s absolutely worth coming by for a pint.
