Only been 2 times same both. Steak and ale pie with a crown and sticky toffee pudding. They where both everything you would want from said descriptor. They have been out of cask conditioned ale both visits.

Great place for a quick dinner! My food came in a flash!!! My pie didn’t have as many pieces of beef as i would have liked but crowning the pie (adding mash and gravy) made up for it. The sticky toffee pudding is a must have as well.

Southside institution. One of the best spots in the city. Thinking about heading down for a bloody and pie this morning. And a bag of crisps with pickled egg for dessert. Great place to bring family and friends or a date. I often go alone and have a pie or burger at the bar. Cozy. Great for intimate conversation Passionately created menu. Couldn’t recommend enough. Thanks for existing Pleasant House.

What a gem! Absolutely feels like a neighborhood British pub. Incredible food. Relaxed and welcoming vibe. Staff is attentive but gives you space to enjoy your meal. I would probably eat here every meal if I could.

Came here for my birthday and asked the server if the vegan pie had any peas or corn in the dish due to an allergy or if everything that was listed on the menu the only veggies in the pie. I was told everything was listed on the menu so I ordered it. Upon cutting it open, I saw what I believed to be chick peas. I waited to ask the server and they said yes there’s chick peas. I then said I specifically asked if there was anything else in this due to allergies and was told no. They then said I’m the only server so I can’t go through the entire menu with someone. My family and I were stunned with this response. They did offer me a cookie or anything else but by then I was just irritated and frustrated due to the servers lack of concern and knowledge.
My throat would have closed, I would have had to use an epi pen and would have been in the ER.
Restaurants and servers need to do better.

It's a great place with good food and a variety of tap beers. I met some old army buddies for burgers. The hostess and bartenders were extremely friendly, funny, and helpful, making for an excellent environment.

Classic pub fare in a wonderfully cozy space, especially in the patio area. The curry chips are well spiced, the Scotch eggs delightfully runny and crispy, and the steak pot pie is pure comfort with its buttery, crisp crust and hearty beef filling. A satisfying and heartwarming meal.

They have a good selection of food and a great selection of tap beer. Had a really nice afternoon there.
The service was fantastic. The food is good but im used to a bit more options. The atmosphere is fine, just not extremely impressive. Not a bad place at all, just nothing jumped out and said this is amazing.

Don't normally leave reviews, but this place is just stellar. If you're looking for good priced beer and really (really really) good food, it's the place. Atmosphere is great too.
One of the best meals I have ever had in Chicago!
