I've been here several times but this past Saturday was a big swing and a miss. We waited 15 mins for someone to come and put water in front of us. We waited another 15 mins for the server to coke and take drink orders, then another 15 moms before bringing the drinks. Our appetizer was there before the drinks arrived. And I wish I was exaggerating, it was at least that much time just to gimtbthe server down for the bill? The food was just average last night. I'm always making excuses for a bad night of service but they have to be better.

Service and food were excellent as always... whenever we come to the Theatre district we always eat at E&C!
Scott
We had a great experience! Our server took a lot of pride in her job. The food was outstanding! We'll definitely be back!
victor
Decent value for the money. Service was very good even though it was quite busy. Temperature of the food needs a little improvement. Pot Roast was very flavorful but it could have been served a much hotter; same for the mashed potatoes. Flight of Pot Pies is definitely a good choice.
Melissa
Poor food and even worse service. Our server could not have been more indifferent. Appealing atmosphere and decor is the only reason I didn't give it 1 star.
Tom
British pub food and very good. The service was excellent and the prices outstanding. Great place to get dinner and drinks before a Chicago Theater event.
Stella
It was just what we were looking for- a terrific UK inspired beer list, great burgers and a terrific bartender/waitress. Sit at the bar if you can find a seat!
Megan
We made a reservation via open table and arrived early on a busy Saturday night before a show at the Chicago Theatre. They were packed but sat us immediately. Food was great, hot, and came out fast and we made it to our show on time!

I would try something other than their pies and Sunday roast. The roast was overcooked and the sides were okay. The pies were not typical British pies. It felt more like an American pit pie. So basically try anything other than the UK classics.
Marvin
The food is delicious! The service is great. And the ambiance very cool. I've never been to England but when I imagine having a pint in an English pub, this is what I picture.
We have been to both locations and this location has the best service as well as the best pre-theater volume.

Two times I've been here while on business. The first night I didn't have a reservation and was asked if I would be able to order, eat and pay in 40 minutes. I went elsewhere. Night two I made a reservation and was asked the same thing. I said absolutely not. I have a reservation and took as much time as I wanted for my meal. It's rude to ask me to hurry up when I'm not even seated yet. I'm here. Others in the future that may or may never show up aren't. I'm the priority. Never again.

Our table was too small for everything we ordered, our waiter was not attentive & had to be stuck next to a kids loud table, but overall we had a great time & the food was soooo good!
Irvin
I felt like I was in a London pub. The service was great, the fish and chips were huge, the pot pie was very favorable, and our bill was much lower than expected.

i went to this restaurant with a family member in a wheelchair. we were told when we got there that the elevator was broken and if she needed the restroom she'd have to be taken through the kitchen. but that was alright. the food was GREAT but our waiter was not very attentive & i finally had to ask for our check 35 minutes after our plates had been cleared. but overall it was very good food & great location for what we were doing.
