“The bartender was really helpful and friendly. Even with a full bar, he took his time to make some recommendations and gave me his full attention while talking to me. The beer selection is really good. They also have beer available for sale.

Just a note, they don’t currently sell food. Drinks only.“

“Bar and liquor store combo with a great atmosphere, friendly staff, and a great selection of whiskey and beer.

We had our rehearsal dinner there, and it was exactly what we wanted. Very much our style. Saved us a bunch of money doing it there vs our other options. And the nice thing was that we were able to cater whatever food we wanted there.

We also got the spirits for our wedding through them. They had the best prices from everything we vetted, and we were able to return all the unopened bottles that were leftover after the event.

Thanks again to Dillon, the owner, who is a really nice guy!“

They both do an awesome job and always go above and beyond. They see us come in and our drinks are on the table shortly after that. The popcorn is pretty good too. Great food, great atmosphere, very friendly staff. Wolfs Head is definitely one of our favorite places.“

“While playing the golf course, cart partner mentioned dinner at the Nest was good, better than most in the area. As he was a member I didn't pay too much attention to his recommendation until spouse suggested I up my game beyond Culvers Sunday evening. We were surprised when we arrived to a mostly empty establishment, 4-5 tables occupied maybe. We forged ahead beginning w/ 2 Bloody Maria's that were perfect, altho we had to explain to the waitress what they were. Aforementioned spouse had steak Diane & 2 sides, once again perfection. Her obese other had one of the best presentations of a wedge salad he'd ever experienced as all the goodies (bacon, blue chz, candies pecans, onion, tomato, dressing) were surrounding the wedge, so he could mix and create as he choose. He also had part - ok most, of a Club Sandwich, which was good, normal, what you'd expect except for the whole grain bread, which was great. The Nest B&G is a great choice if you're in the area.“

Jeremy is a great owner/bartender, and his staff truly goes above and beyond most dive bars. It's not a dive bar as it's clean and open. Neighborhood bar with character, class, and cheap drinks. Just rip the great bartenders so they stay. Totally a hidden gem in dupage county. City people can also come as it's 200 feet from the train ...“

The menu had a lot of reasonably priced options for food as well. 4 stars because one of our old fashioneds was served with a vibrant red cherry that had a pit in it. So it wasn’t the usual luxardo cherry that I am used to having.
I also love that there is an overwalk that connects you to Santo Cielo.“
