“great time on our first trip there tonight! Special shout out to Savanah! she was our awesome waitress!“

“Really good food choices and great staff super nice and very helpful and friendly will recommend 100 times over A++++++++. Around“

“Lovely Korean karaoke pub with solid food, spacious rooms, and great service. The only downside was that the karaoke setup runs through YouTube instead of the classic karaoke systems with built-in music videos and. It still worked fine, but part of the nostalgic karaoke fun was missing a bit.“

“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.“

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

“Food was good! Super chill vibe. Love that you can substitute fries for a salad at no charge. Def will be coming back here! Great burger.

Update: second time here, server was extremely rude and kept rolling his eyes. Still tipped 20% but it was not welcoming“

“Great bartenders with a great atmosphere.“

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

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

“The bar is down to earth and super friendly. Karaoke is always a great time. Todd, David, and Kate are wonderful people. On a rare magical occasion, a mariachi might show up on a random night to perform. Highly recommend this place if you want local friendly vibes. Cheap drinks! Possums is FOREVER!!!!!!!“

“Veronica was great. Very prompt with her service and courteous along the way. I would come again“

“We loved the ambiance of this Irish Pub! The Christmas decor and lights make it a wonderland! The band was great and the pub has so much charm!

This all made up for the 3 bartenders who were more worried about talking to their friends than waiting on customers. We waited 20 min, as did customers next to us, staff looked right at us and kept talking to their friends. A bartender with curly hair- she actually scowled at us for asking to place a drink order. Exception was one bartender who had very long straight dark brown hair: she was awesome and was doing all of the others work with a huge smile on her face! She was great! It was a busy night that the restaurant could have had higher cash flow if the others focused on drink orders. We'll be back though, really great place!“

“Paddy's truly offers the best bar food around, and the atmosphere is second to none. A big shoutout to Jen, Amy, and Amy Lynn, whose friendly service always makes you feel right at home and appreciated!“

“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!“

“They served the Corned Beef Platter and didn't disappoint! The server we had was perfect for their environment too. We added the corned beef barley soup. OMG YUMMM! I just wish they served it longer than 4 days. They have several other Irish dishes to try as well. I feel like I can't get enough. Lol 😄“

“such sweet owners! they helped me celebrate my 20th birthday last year with the sign and some catered food, and this year (i have covid☹️) they gave drinks on the house for my family who went to celebrate in honor of me! i can't wait to come visit once i'm out of quarantine!!“

“Best bar in the city. Friendly. Good beer.“

“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.“

“I usually stop here since it's on my mail route and I can tell you that they have great food and great drinks I had their buttermilk chicken sandwich with portage park tater tots and it was very good I highly recommend this spot espically for happy hour also the staff is amazing they always make me feel welcome“

“By far the best bar when it comes to service, they are very attentive and always greet you with a smile! The bartenders are lovely and definitely help create a fun and positive atmosphere🩷 Highly recommend!“

“The Balboa absolutely delivers. The thinly sliced ribeye was tender and packed with flavor, and the combo of grilled onions and mushrooms added the perfect savory depth. The mix of mozzarella, American cheese, and cheese sauce made it rich without being overwhelming, all melted perfectly into the sourdough. The bread had a great crisp on the outside while staying soft inside, and the chipotle mayo on the side gave it a nice extra kick.

Overall, a seriously satisfying sandwich—definitely one I’d order again.“

“great tacos! awesome beer listing. terrific ahi tuna bahn mi sandwich! wonderful owners and servers.“

“Wow the Ribs were delicious and the pasta and the waitress was friendly and great i would recommend this place and the dessert and coffee were superb“

“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.“

“Love the decor and the people are so nice and of course there’s Harry 😊“

“Great food and awesome staff!!“

“Mi piace venire qui con i colleghi per una pausa veloce, ma non trovo Gullivers Pizza & Pub nell’app Coverflex, pensate di attivarla presto?“

“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.“

“Inside, outside, early night, late night, no matter when or where, it’s always fantastic, every single time. The spicy feta is great, the chicken kabobs, martinis, coffees, have never had anything not fantastic!“

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

“good place and amazing music.“

“Such a fun place to go to great prices and great people always a good time“

“Great Pub great staff 🇮🇪👍👍“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“I was waiting to catch a Metra train and came across the Booze Hound and decided to grab a quick beer. So glad I did! Instantly greeted by two very friendly bartenders, it’s such a welcoming neighborhood vibe that I was so sad to leave when I had to catch my train lol can’t wait to return!“

“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. 👍“

“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.“

“Great atmosphere and great drink prices! The bartenders are very friendly and knowledgeable plus the amazing owners make it and overall fun well ran neighborhood establishment“

“i love mugsy's. also it is a great bar to go to when you go to Forest park“

“I just loved the St Paddy's pop-up it was kid friendly and we all had a blast!“

“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).“
