“We have been to Melinda’s a couple times now and we absolutely love this place!!!! The atmosphere is welcoming and the service is amazing! Great live music on the weekends and trivia night was fun as well!“

“Great bartenders with a great atmosphere.“

“I really loved this place, it’s a great spot to get a drink and hangout with friends. The main reason why I think people should come here is because I’m a local and there is not a dive bar in the area that provides this level of service. The bartenders are kind and attentive, you will get a drink without waiting too long and you will feel comfortable and safe. Yes it may be slightly pricier but not by much, this is the kind of place that makes it worth it. I am not a regular but I will be after tonights visit. My local bar being Mr. Cs has disappointment me with their management but this place will treat you 10x better. Please come and visit Jennifer and Colm, they were the best bartender and I’m sure they will treat you well also.“

“Best bartenders! Especially Marge and Colleen Fun customers and never a dull moment. Man I love this bar!“

“My dad and I came in for food and drinks before the sox vs. dodgers game, we had such an awesome experience. He had the grilled cheese cheeseburger while I had the Latino burger. The fries here are arguably the best type of fries which just added more awesomeness to my opinion of the place. The mac and cheese was great and super cheesy, the burger was FANTASTIC. The blend of flavors were so good.

Was also awesome to be there while they had representatives there for Super Lyte which was a plus.

Overall amazing and we will be back for sure. Photo is of the Latino burger“

“Darts tournaments every Tuesday night at 7pm!“

“The Balboa absolutely delivers. The thinly sliced ribeye was tender and packed with flavor, and the combo of grilled onions and mushrooms added the perfect savory depth. The mix of mozzarella, American cheese, and cheese sauce made it rich without being overwhelming, all melted perfectly into the sourdough. The bread had a great crisp on the outside while staying soft inside, and the chipotle mayo on the side gave it a nice extra kick.

Overall, a seriously satisfying sandwich—definitely one I’d order again.“

“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.“

“Visited early afternoon Fri 12/19. Felt sorry for the only woman there to serve, as she was covering both the bar and all tables. The place was packed. I hope she made bank in tips. I give her all the credit in the world for her exceptional friendliness and attitude. As our group was leaving, we did see another server, so I hope our original server got some relief.“

“I had been checking this bar out for a while and finally decided to stop in. I really enjoyed myself. If you are in the neighborhood and looking for a chill spot to hang out with well priced beer, defenetly stop by. Bartender Frida is the best and the owner is very welcoming.“

“good place and amazing music.“

“Back when I lived in the area, Irish Times had just opened and I stopped in to have a Guinness. Now, I have had Guinness all over the Chicago area and never has a Chicago pint ever approached the magical, otherworldly flavor of a pint consumed in Ireland. I don't know if it's the water, the proximity to the brewery or just some kind of strange magic that happens to Guinness in Ireland, but I've never had better. That all changed when I drank that first pint at Irish Times. It was easily the best pint of Guinness I've had outside the Emerald Isle. I've since left the area and have had pints all over the United States and Canada. Nothing has approached the quality, freshness and taste of the Guinness at Irish Times in Brookfield. If you are lucky enough to be nearby, don't hesitate to make a detour to the pub. You will not regret it.“

“This place isn't all that different from any other place, because it's just like a regular neighborhood bar, but every single time I've gone here I've ended up with amazing stories. So don't go here for the bar, go here for the atmosphere & the interesting people that you'll randomly meet. Also, the staff has always been an incredibly nice and friendly, so bonus!“

“Always a good time! Staff is friendly and efficient.“

“$10.00 buckets of beer and great bartenders. They have a pool table and beer pong.“
