“Finally treated ourselves - not disappointed!! Hubby got the chicken piccante & I had the chicken marsala - both were excellent! The pasta fagioli was so good we got a quart to take home. The service and atmosphere were also great - we will definitely be back!!“

“Jason’s the best and always friendly 100%“

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

“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!“

“The vibe was ok but the bartenders made it great!! Chris is amazing! And I will definitely be back the days he works because how awesome he made our experience!“

“Love this place! Great atmosphere! Great people! Great Music!“

“first timer , awesome place to hang out listen to a live singer great burgers. it feeks like everyone knows each other and are super friendly . going back next friday for dinner“

“This place is great! I come here often because my boyfriend plays music here with his bands. The food is amazing! The fries are my favorite. There’s also a really great server here every time I come. I don’t know his name, but he has long black hair that is usually tied back. He’s really nice to me. And he doesn’t judge me for my neurodivergent tendencies lol like wearing sound canceling headphones and stimming. He’s my favorite person that works here. Also, my boyfriend enjoys playing here. It’s beautiful inside and out. It’s really clean too. It also doesn’t get too crazy here. It’s family friendly. I’m not sure what ages are allowed, but I’ve seen some kids in here before. Highly recommend this place!

Edit: the servers name is Eric!! Request him!!!“

“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.“

“For bar stool junkies. Two TV' s.... different screen colors. Older beer ads and hardware. Forgot to check the head on this initial visit. Several regulars in/out for their nicotine charge. Very nice lady behind the bar. I will be back soon. Minus: PBR, but where is the OldStyle? Plus: WSox beat Cleveland.Key Word: Old (Style).“

“Great good, cold beer, good service!“

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

“Our party of four had an amazing time. The place is very busy and in demand. Tons of awesome beers to choose from and the food is so delicious! Parking was a bit of a challenge but we had time to find a spot as out wait time was about 40 min. 😞, due to demand!“

“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.“

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

“Am recommending shan a han's food and spirit to everyone in the world amazing platform!“

“We held a celebration of life for my brother here today. About 50 in attendance in the stylish, comfortable upstairs area. Despite the fact that I planned this from 400 miles away and without having ever seen the venue, it went off without a hitch due to Mr. David Candiotti and his staff. No surprises. Everything was as promised. The venue is extremely stylish and rustic. Food was delicious and plentiful as were the drinks. Service was fast, efficient and friendly thanks to Mona, Alberto and Olena. I highly recommend.“

“Excellent drinks and fun atmosphere“

“This has been our go to place for Friday dinner for over a year now. It’s a bit of a drive from our house but it’s well worth it. Their burgers are outstanding. We had a party for my birthday here a few years ago with about 25 people and they did an awesome job. Everyone was happy. Liana and Natalie are our favorite servers. 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.“

“Our first visit very delishes food reminds me of the friends who lived in the Italian neighborhood here in Chicago. Thank you all! Ed & Peg“

“Back when I lived in the area, Irish Times had just opened and I stopped in to have a Guinness. Now, I have had Guinness all over the Chicago area and never has a Chicago pint ever approached the magical, otherworldly flavor of a pint consumed in Ireland. I don't know if it's the water, the proximity to the brewery or just some kind of strange magic that happens to Guinness in Ireland, but I've never had better. That all changed when I drank that first pint at Irish Times. It was easily the best pint of Guinness I've had outside the Emerald Isle. I've since left the area and have had pints all over the United States and Canada. Nothing has approached the quality, freshness and taste of the Guinness at Irish Times in Brookfield. If you are lucky enough to be nearby, don't hesitate to make a detour to the pub. You will not regret it.“

“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.“

“Liberty Tavern is a charming spot that offers a delightful dining experience. I recently enjoyed a delicious omelet there, which was perfectly cooked and packed with fresh ingredients. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a great place to relax. The staff was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. I highly recommend Liberty Tavern for anyone looking for a tasty meal in a cozy setting!“

“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.“
