50 Best Sports Bars near Northbrook

“Always had a great experience there. Will, the bartender, is great!!!“

“5 Stars - Clean dining space, plenty of parking, and a great inviting atmosphere with the football game on TV. The staff was super busy with a rush of in-person and Uber orders, but they were working incredibly hard and efficiently. Highly recommend!“

“I’m in town for work and, after having an absolutely terrible day, I just wanted to find a good place to sit outside, listen to some live music, and unwind. I had never been here before, so I came in and waited at the front to be seated outside near the band. After standing there for a while without anyone acknowledging me, I finally decided I’d just sit at the bar instead.

I sat at the bar for about 10 minutes and still no one came over. At that point, I was honestly ready to leave.

Then Jade came over.

She noticed me looking outside and immediately asked if I had been helped. Without me even asking, she offered to find me a place to sit outside near the music. She went completely out of her way to find me a spot, told me she would take care of me, and proceeded to serve me the entire night, even though I don’t believe that was originally her responsibility.

She completely turned my experience around.

I found out later that Jade is brand new, which made me even more impressed. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care. She just has a light about her that you can’t teach.

I work in HR, so I know good talent when I see it. Jade is a keeper. I hope management recognizes what they have in her because she absolutely deserves the recognition. What started as a night where I was ready to walk out ended up being exactly what I needed after a really hard day, and that was entirely because of Jade. She rocks 💕“

“The sign says established in 1932, and every time I've driven by, I think I need to stop in. I finally did, and am kicking myself for wasted time. There is indoor and outdoor seating. The large bar and restaurant seating is comfortable and spacious. There is a variety of beers on tap, served in well-frosted glasses. We sat at the bar and I had one of the best burgers I've ever had, served with homemade chips. It was so good that I almost returned with another companion the next day!“

“Chrissy is Awesome and simply the BEST“

“spots in the area to watch a Bears game. The energy is perfect — TVs everywhere, great sound, and the crowd actually feels like a community.

The food is consistently great (way above typical bar food), and it’s obvious the ownership really cares about the place. You can tell in the details — the place is spotless, from the front tables to the bathrooms, and everything feels well run.

The bartenders are fast, friendly, and know their stuff, whether you’re ordering a draft, a cocktail, or just asking what’s good to eat. Service is always quick even when it’s packed, and you never feel ignored.

If you’re looking for a clean, well-run bar with great food, great service, and the perfect setup for a Bears Sunday, Filonek’s is the spot.“

“Stopped in today and was hoping to see the owner. I met him when Violet’s first opened. Maria was there today. I really enjoyed our conversation. 😀“

“great food, awesome atmosphere, and service was spot on. I'll definitely be back.“

“This is our go to spot after work to play some games and chill on a couple drinks 🍺 cheers 🍻 Bartenders are nice every time we came in“

“It is a fun place to hang out. Very good pool tables. Fun people. The
only negative for me was the burger. Patties were very thin and overcooked. Not much of condiments on the bun. Top bun had no condiments at all just the bun. Pretty bland overall. But still a good place to go have some beers and play pool, just don't expect much for food, at least based on my one time experience.“

“Everything was wonderful Service was great. Friendly atmosphere“

“Solid drinks and food. Lots of parking and very close to the expressway. This maybe the best place to met if your on the North shore and want to meet up with friends and family on their way downtown or way up north. Nice staff who keep it lively without being overbearing.“

“Took a trip out to the area, decided to stop here to eat on the way home. Wow we were delighted. Chris was great and made me literally the best amaretto sour ever. I got the pan roast and my partner got the gumbo. Huge portions. So delicious.“

“Best place to go staff is the best and owner is awesome!!!“

“Lindsay is the best. We were tired after traveling all day. The food and drink were perfect to reenergize us. Shrimp pasta and jambalaya were excellent. Service was great. Tonight we went back and took a friend. We asked for Lindsey and she even remembered us and our drink preferences. The flatbreads and chocolate cake are great. Cannot beat this atmosphere.“

“I can't thank Erica and her staff enough. We had a large outdoor group. They ran to get table clothes to make the tables look nice. Service was awesome and kind. First visit not our last. Much appreciated.“

“Went in. Was seated right away. Service was speedy and good.“

“Great drinks and even better atmosphere.“

“Rocky’s has become one of my favorite spots! The food is always delicious, my personal favorites are the BBQ ribs, Garlic Parmesan wings, and their signature burger. They also have a great selection of drinks, so there’s always something good to go with the food. I also really like that they offer hookah. There’s a huge variety of flavors and different tobacco options depending on how light or strong you want it, so there’s something for everyone. The atmosphere is great, the service is always friendly, and the staff genuinely makes you feel welcome every time you come in. It’s just a really comfortable place to eat, have some drinks, enjoy a hookah, and spend time with friends. Definitely recommend Rocky’s is a great food, great people, great atmosphere, and always a good time!“

“the owner is amazing! my first time ordering here, I thought i placed the order for delivery, instead it was for pickup. I called and the owner answered, I explained i didn't have a car at the moment and he personally delivered the order himself. I tried to give him a tip and he refused. the food was great and still hot by the time we received it. we will definitely be ordering again! thank you so much!“
