50 Best Bar & Grill near Thornton

“Great food and fun!“

“They have the best cheeseburger in Chicago. I went there in 2012, and 2013 on Kedzie, and omg it’s the best. I used to live in Highland Indiana and I took public transportation which it was GPTC bus to Downtown Hammond, and pace bus from Downtown Hammond Indiana to Downtown Harvey Illinois, and pace 349 from Harvey Transportation Center to 111th and Western, and CTA Route #112 bus from 111th and Western to 111th and Kedzie. Well now since I finally move to Chicago Auburn Gresham with my fiancé, and now I live 15 minutes away. I take 79th Street bus from 79th and Ashland to 79th and Kedzie, and transfer to CTA Route #52A Southbound and go all way to 111th and Kedzie. I’m even more glad you guys reopened which I had no idea where you guys relocated at Thanks to my friend Tracy for telling me where it is. I went there with my fiancé Raymon. I’m so glad you guys are amazing, and the service was great too. I’ll be back. This place is even very affordable.“

“It was a fun time I had a wonderful day“

“Pretty good menu. Lots of grilled cheeses and at first I was skeptical but it really is flavorful. My favorite monthly sandwich I wish could be turned into a standard sandwich is the cubano. Loaded tots are also very good.“

“The atmosphere is lively and welcoming, providing a classic neighborhood feel that is perfect for gathering with friends or watching a game. The menu offers a great selection of hearty options, and the food consistently arrives well-prepared with bold flavors and generous portions. I was particularly impressed by the attentive service; the staff was quick to check in and ensured that everything was handled with a friendly and professional attitude. The facility is well-maintained and clean, with a layout that balances a high-energy bar environment with comfortable dining spaces. It is a reliable spot for a relaxed and satisfying meal, as the energy of the room makes for an enjoyable experience every time. The management clearly does a great job of maintaining a consistent standard of hospitality, making it a standout choice for anyone looking for great food in a casual, upbeat setting.“

“the Food was excellent and the onwers Jim and Rosie were great host's“

“We had a great time great place great atmosphere“

“Well, if they cook your food properly, it's not bad... however, if they don't and you need to send it back to cook it (not a fan of raw burgers 🤷‍♀️) and it comes back the same way... be prepared to not eat and pay for the meal anyway. I asked for it to be removed from our bill (over $100 total so not just a couple things) and they removed it after a small "fight" but literally charged us for a basket of fries cuz I ate a few fries off my plate, I guess. they don't take care of their mistakes nor do they care to make things right. Lost future business, everyone at the table was shocked.“

“My first visit here. I did not get to try any food. That's because lunch hours are 12:00 to 3:00 pm, and the kitchen opens back up at 5:00 p.m. I picked up my order today. I called it in. Please make sure when you call in your order to check to see what the specials are and how much they cost. According to the post, the special on Wednesday is a patty melt with fries for $6. When I got there they told me there was no special on patty melts. So I paid the regular price of $10.50 each. It's not a bad price but I was expecting to pay $12 in tax for two. I did go over the post with the cashier to make sure of any other specials going on during the week and of course the other specials were legit but not the one today. So I don't understand why the patty melt was not a special today.

Okay, let's get to the food. The patty melt was delicious. It was seasoned perfectly. The onions were grilled perfectly. The food was nice and hot.

I will come back again but I'm going to double-check to make sure about the prices before I do.

It's a great spot to hang out for lunch and dinner. There are less than 20 items on the menu but they are nicely priced. Also, if you're a drinker there's plenty of that too. And the prices are great.“

“This was my first time to Natural Law. The food is amazing and the service was top notch“

“Had an amazing dinner!! Food was 12/10 Had the steak and lobster special and the poblano pasta.. don’t forget the molten cake for dessert. Every single bite was amazing!! Our server had way too many tables in her section. She was very rushed, but also had people around helping fill our drinks so kind of made up for it. We will be going back for the steak and lobster very soon.“

“Friendly and fun atmosphere. Great band line ups many times a week. Food is tasteful and highly recommended. Interior is a nice log cabin design and exceptionally decorated.“

“Always great food. I love their desserts. Yummy.“

“This bar is a very nice GEM that has a great decor. The beers are ice cold and the drinks very refreshing. Taco Tuesdays are very tasty and the catfish dinner is Awesome. This is a very friendly bar with colorful characters. Watch the game from any seat or select a song from touch tunes and dance your cares away. Try you luck on the gaming machines or just have a couple of drinks with your buds.

“Had the pleasure of hosting my first baby shower here a few weeks back, and despite the covid issues we were still able to pull off an amazing party! With the help of the owner Jessica! Everything was wonderful, plenty of space for guests to keep a social distance, bar option available, a nice stage and Dj booth for music. Everything was very clean and modern. Jessica even helped us get decorated and set up. I couldn't have asked for a better venue! Everything turned out beautifully! Thank you City Limits! We will definitely be returning soon“

“Nice bar to go to, good people go in there. Lately I've been noticing the bartenders don't want to do their job, want to hang out with their friends and not cater to customers. Very unfriendly, act like you're a problem if you aren't a everyday customer/friend. I hate having to wave down a bartender to get my drink, this isn't your clubhouse...it's your job! smh!“

“It was a cool little spot“

“Great place to decompress. Music, sports on tv and friendly service…“

“It's always a pleasure to go to Old Town the white people treat you so good down there the food is great the drinks is a reasonable price it won't hurt your pocket so I try my best stay away from black owned club because black owned club black owned places are too high and too expensive they hurt black people pocket so old town is the place to go I'm keeping all this 100 💯“

“sorry for mispelling Audrey YOU ARE INCREDIBLE!!! Loved the layout, still some interior designing needed but GREAT JOB OVERALL. very hidden GEM in Hammond. I highly recommend the nachos & Turkey club. Draft beer and mixed drinks were to perfection. first time we went there and YES THIS SPOT IS AWESOME.!“

“The Tin never disappoints! Great atmosphere and the bartenders are some of the best around. Try the burgers and the pizza! Perfect spot to catch up with friends and watch a game. Great for pool players!“

“catch it on a night I. the middle of the week, good food for quick bite and nice place together a drink with friends“

“Spanky’s is a solid spot overall and definitely worth a visit. I’d give it a strong 4 out of 5.
The drinks were the highlight—well made, consistent, and exactly what you want when you’re out for a good time. The atmosphere also stood out in a good way. It had a lively, comfortable vibe that made it easy to relax and enjoy the evening without feeling too crowded or overwhelming.
Service was another positive. Attentive without being overbearing, and everything came out in a timely manner. You could tell they were on top of things, which always makes a difference.
Food was a bit more middle-of-the-road. We tried the jalapeño poppers, and while they were decent, they didn’t quite stand out compared to everything else. Not bad by any means, just not the star of the show.
All in all, Spanky’s delivers where it counts—great drinks, good service, and a fun atmosphere. If you go in expecting a bar-first experience with solid food on the side, you’ll leave happy.“

“My family and I have been eating here for over a decade and the food has always been amazing. The hot wings are their specialty but they also offer a great variety of other foods. The people are always friendly and the food is always prepared on time.“

“Good vibes. Good blend between Retro and new age vibes. The music is lively. The service is excellent.

Parking: Lots of parking across the street - the parking lot is a bit bumpy but it's free and there is plenty of space“

“Waitress Wednesday was very attentive. KUDOS to her. Food was delicious. Lot to chose from on the MENU.“

“Came for one thing, and that was the egg rolls. Not disappointed at all I got the three for 15. Philly salmon, Philly cheesesteak and Philly cheese chicken out of the three the salmon is my favorite. Yet, all of them are hot, fresh roll and delicious. They are filling and crispy. The Philly steak could use a little bit more cheese, but overall very good. Would definitely recommend. Lastly, the lady that waited on me she was very pleasant and good customer service.“

“A whole vibe for the grown and sexy“

“The staff an security were on their job , okayyyy. The Dj played the right hits all night. The bartender made my drinks just how I love them. I will highly recommend everyone stop by an just see for yourself. I loved everything. See you guys again soon. ❤️“

Definitely hit the spot only thing I have to say is that I came in for my birthday with a friend and my drink text non-alcoholic and I had a mini fish bowl I couldn't take none of the liquor didn't want to take it back because my waitress was so nice so that was it shout out to Chris my waitress if that's her name“
