36 Best Pubs near Des Plaines

“Wow. I had the soup/stew. It was great. Don't miss the garden. Koi pond. Lester the owner has stories. This is where waiters and waitresses go.“

“My neighborhood meeting place. Great food, drinks, people, and atmosphere“

“Great staff. Fun neighborhood hangout where you’re guaranteed to meet friendly folks and have a great time!“

“Hideout Pub & Grill is a fun place for Karaoke night, 🎤 and I believe that it's 4 nights a week. Service is usually slow, food is okay, and drinks are always good. The staff is very friendly and the Karaoke KJ 🎤 is very good and keeps things moving nicely. I will go back for karaoke night 🌙“

“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.“

“Best steak around by far. Nothing and nowhere near can compare in my opinion!“

“Superb and sevice was wonderful“

“Came in with a large group and the waitress was so nice/kind and patient. Would definitely come in again.“

“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!“

“One of my favorite neighborhood watering holes in Elmhurst. Ideally located on Spring Road just north of the prairie path, it's a perfect and low-key place to stop for a bite and beer or whisky. My dog loves this place and its servers even more than I do.“

“Wonderful place to have a meal. The Dunkley Burgers is awesome!“

“Great bartenders and drink specials, along with food by Ruben.“

“I stopped by this place while waiting for an oil change nearby. The layout of the restaurant was really fun — you can see the ice rink right next to it, which felt straight out of a high school movie. I loved the classic American diner vibe. It wasn’t too crowded, which made it feel even more local and cozy.

There were claw machines and candy dispensers here and there, which added to the charm. The server was super friendly and welcoming. I ordered a drink, some chili, and a burger. The food wasn’t amazing, but it was decent. Overall, it’s a very chill place. I feel like it’d be a fun spot to stop by once in a while to grab a drink and hang out with a friend.“

“It’s the coziest bar around and everybody knows your name!! Prices are tight!!💕“

“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!“

“Erin was our server and was awesome. The chicken sandwich I had was amazing. The Mexican corn side was also amazing. My father had a burger which was huge and he said delicious. I will definitely come back again.“

“Super nice peeps- dog stuff so it’s a keeper. Just go“

“great spirits and beers good food and entertainment its awesome“

“This is one of those rare first-time stops that you make in life. You have a beverage, the clientele and staff make you feel welcome, & soon you're part of this warm, friendly family. Stay well!“

“Went with family for the Friday night fish special. Was pretty good, but the gem was the variety of sizes that came with the platter. Everything could have used a bit more seasoning, except the veggies provided with it were done well. Typical decor for this type of establishment.“

“Last time we had the wings they were delicious, this Thursday they were dry, like they were sitting under a heat lamp and then tossed in sauce Disappointed. Had a BLT it was good! Husband had the chicken panini. It was delicious. Yes, we highly recommend going here. I think that the wait staff needs some more training. 👍“

“Fun place to hang out with friends. Staff and owners are wonderful people. Great neighborhood atmosphere and I recommend you stop in for a drink or five 😉“

“The Cheeseburger on a Pretzel bun was very good and I would recommend it. I like their selection of German & Craft beers. I will be back at the Old Munich Tavern next Friday.“

“My wife and I ate here on a whim and had the best time! Zero complaints about the service or food. Whenever we're back in town, they'll be high on our list to revisit.“

“My daughter and son in law invited us to their regular watering hole since we were visiting from out of town.
Dee was an excellent bar tender and made sure we never went dry. I didn't get a chance to try the food but it was a fun environment and atmosphere.“

“I really like this place.. nice ppl n drinks n food is great...“

“Excellent food and super nice waiter, Ryan. Plan to return again!“

“We had our sons High School Graduation party in the main level party room and I wanted to say a heartfelt thank you to the Edison Park Inn team, especially Dennis who worked with us to get all the details knocked out and made the process very easy and our absolutely wonderful server Michelle, she was FANTASTIC! She made every guest feel warm and welcome. the pizzas were hot and fresh, the salad was perfect and the chicken is still being raved about today. Booking EPI's was exactly what we were hoping for, a laid back atmosphere where the younger kids could move around and the older kids felt at home, the adults, well we had a great time and could not have been happier. I HIGHLY recommend EPI for your party needs, you cannot go wrong.“

“Good food nice bartender! Had fun!“

“great people! very welcoming“

“Never been in a bar in America before, this was my first time. This place just gives you the best drinks at the best prices, plus the vibes are just so welcoming and very American. I hope I can go visit again anytime soon. The staff is very humble and attentive. They appreciate veterans🖤“

“Great Pub great staff 🇮🇪👍👍“

“sauce is a little sweeter than I prefer but still good and they don't skimp on the toppings. decent place with a great staff“

“I ate here twice. Cesar salad with grilled chicken was very good, a little heavy on the dressi g for my liking. I also had the chicken wings which were average, a little too crispy in my opinion, but celery was very fresh and was very good with the blue cheese. Second visit, I had the Italian Wedding soup. Soup was delicious and hot, perfectly paired with the buttery toast that just melted in my mouth with the soup broth and was perfect for dipping!! I also had the market salad with medium rare steak. Salad was big and steak was cook as requested. The soup with toast was definitely the highlight for me. Prices are on the high end, but I didn't leave hungry. Perfect spot when staying at the hotel and don't feel like going out.“
