50 Best Bars near Wheaton

“Our favorite place! Friendly and so much fun!“

“The food is great for the price, bartenders are fantastic and the prices on drinks can't be beat. The only downside is that it's right next to the open seating parents like to bring their screaming offspring to. There's nothing quite like a toddler having a fit while other small children sing the song of their people to ruin a relaxing evening with drinks. If there was some sort of divider that could work for sheltering your ears from the screeching of unattended children, it would be perfect.“

“Thank you Molos for a wonderful evening. We hosted a small birthday celebration with 20 people. The room was cozy and private and since we had dined before we knew the food would be awesome. We did appetizers of course. The Baked Feta was a huge hit as well as the Saganaki of course. We ordered Greek Salad for each table and our guests ordered off the menu. I’m sure it was a challenge for the kitchen but they handled it very well and everyone enjoyed their meal. We had one server, who’s name I did not get, (may fault). She was awesome! In the end the entire night could not have gone better and even with drinks, wine, and desserts, ordered as our guests desired, the price was very reasonable. We all highly recommend Molos!!“

“The food and cocktails are great. Service A+, The manager Mike knows his bourbon. On top of all that, I left my Mawi Jim sunglasses there on Saturday and they put them aside for me. 💯“

“You are absolutely missing out if you aren’t here for Saturday night!! These are a few of my favorite bartenders and they work HARD. It is a great mix of crowd! Slots, frozen pizza, cheese balls…you can’t miss!“

“Shout out to Ivy! They hosted our Baby Shower and everything turned out perfectly.“

“Good food! Friendly staff! And did I mention the great food? I highly recommend the ‘Smokehouse Conbo’!!“

“My bookclub has met here a handful of times. My sister and I have been here a handful of times. This is the exact place we need in Warrenville & Mo is the best!! The atmosphere is perfect, seating is super comfy. I can hunker in here all evening.“

“Had an amazing lunch!!! Food selection is amazing. I wound up with the Tuna Poke Bowl and it didn’t disappoint. Our waitstaff was attentive to detail. I am not a big dessert person when I go out, but the Key Lime Pie was calling our names. SOOOOO good!!! Thank you for a great meal. We will be back very soon.“

“Great venue and room for our wedding shower. Staff was on point and food was excellent!“

“What a great bottle shop! I came to this shop specifically for a couple styles that were in stock as well as to pick up some Oktoberfest styles from breweries not available in my area. Really friendly proprietor with a clearly marked bottle selection. Prices were actually impressive! I've been to other bottle shops that were smaller and far more expensive. Enjoyed a tap at the bar as well. It was early on a Tuesday, so pretty quiet. I am sure the weekends get crazy. I even lucked into a parking spot right out front!“

“The greatest bar ever! The absolute best!“

“12/3/25 night Brother from Texas and me. Fantastic Bar, best small town drinking place, “Great” Selections. Scott the Bartender is very personable/funny almost like someone I would hang out with. We group of 4 went Lunar Brewing couple of times 20 years ago, my brother and been talking about coming back. Today after leaving noisy,yuppy, pricy Yardhouse. We opted to Lunar, now I found new pub to spend our weekend chilly brewing after 30 years @ Brixies Saloon (Brookfield) which personally closed to me in 2017. I reside in Romeoville/ Plainfield since 2004. Nothing out there, Really“

“Wonderful experience, great food and superb service. I’d add photos of the food but FB won’t let me“

“A relaxed, friendly atmosphere makes this place one of our favorites. Megan and her colleagues behind the bar are a big reason why we love coming here. Oh, and the beer is cold, too.“

“I love The Uptown. Live music every weekend is why I come here and all the bands are good and rock out. Cheap drinks are always a plus and the tasty frozen pizzas can keep you going throughout the night in case you get hungry. All the bartenders are great and friendly with everyone. There is a big parking lot behind the place just in case you can't find a spot in front. Great vibes overall so come on down and grab a drink 🍻“

“This place was amazing! We just so happened to come here and we were amazed! The entire menu looked and tasted amazing! The drink menu was worth every cent. Mike needs to be commended for the service and attitude that he showed us. We loved him!“

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.“

“Wonderful place to have a meal. The Dunkley Burgers is awesome!“

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

“I absolutely love Nels! My favorite bar in the DuPage area by far. It feels like the hometown Cheers. Everybody knows everybody, everyone is welcoming. It’s friendly and a great place to meet people. Or bring a group of friends. Ashley who Bartends on Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturdays has really made this place welcoming to all. The karaoke is super fun on Friday and Saturday nights. Drink prices are the most reasonable around. Highly recommend! It is become our regular spot on the weekends and for a weekday nightcap! The crowd is all ages from 20s all the way to 70+.“

“Barrelman's Room is my go-to place on a Friday or Saturday night when I want delicious cocktails and cozy ambiance so I can actually talk to my friends & hear each other. It's usually pretty easy to get a table, the staff is helpful with recommendations and I love the "secret" feel of it. I recommend it to anyone who wants a night out without a long line or wait. You won't be disappointed!“

“Great place to experience. A little private club“

“Erieon made our experience wonderful in Kankakee!“

“Plank Bar & Kitchen is conveniently located inside Hotel Indigo Naperville Riverwalk. The ambience and overall experience were good, but there were very few vegetarian options available on the menu.

We tried the avocado toast and yogurt, and both were okay, but not great or particularly memorable. Overall, the food was decent, but the restaurant could definitely improve its vegetarian options and variety.“

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

“Went to Devons in Oakbrook with old friends. Had a wonderful time and the food was exceptional. The crab cakes were the best I ever had. No fillers and lots of delicious crab. The waiter Trenton was amazing!!“

“Not only have I loved Hawthornes from when I was a kid growing up in West Chicago! It was the PERFECT place to have my wedding. Lou, Heidi and Kelly did fantastic and helped make my dream come alive! Every question I had they answered and were able to accommodate so much! Heidi was in CONSTANT communication with me and was able to give advice and help me through the whole process. Her suggestions were so helpful and she helped during the ceremony and reception. I could not have done it without them. This place treats you like family and has amazing service! When my husband and I went to pick up our things the next morning we were planning on taking 2 trips and Lou let us borrow his truck that is how amazing and friendly they are! WE LOVE YOU HAWTHORNES! Thanks for making our wedding the best day of our lives(: not to mention EVERY guest couldn’t stop talking about how fun the venue was and there was something for everyone to do, wiffleball, volleyball, giant beer pong, bags, dancing, and more! Everyone was able to have fun the whole time!“

“We celebrated our 20th anniversary at Sullivan's Steakhouse last night and it just felt right from the start. Great energy, great food, and the kind of atmosphere you want for a night like that. They really went the extra mile too. A personalized card and flower petals on the table when we sat down, a photo card to take home, and a complimentary dessert with “Happy Anniversary” written in chocolate. Those little touches made it feel special. Manny was awesome. Attentive, easy to talk to, and had a great feel for timing. Never rushed, never waiting on anything. Really appreciate how the whole night came together. We’ll be back.“

“When I used to live in West Chicago a couple of years ago, my fiancé now husband and I used to go there all the time and his Uncle Mike. I recommend this place 100%, the drinks are good, the bartenders are friendly, and the Viper Burger was our favorite. Alan is an awesome guy with a great sense of humor. The atmosphere is chill, welcoming and you'll have a great time. When I say to stop by The Bunker, I mean it lol 😃. Whenever we are in town again, we are definitely going to try stopping by. 😌✨“

“Great place! My first time here and the staff and owners were all very welcoming and when I went back the next day they all remembered my name, feels like home here. My friend won big on the machines!$$$ They have amazing pizza served with seasoning. I will definitely be making this my new neighborhood hangout!“

“Loved it“

“I've traveled around a LOT selling my wears and no place I've ever been has good hotel food, except here. Every year I always buy food from them. Super yummy and you get a lot of food for a decent price. This is the one time I don't have to worry about bringing food because they have options for all. Service is outstanding and the folks are super kind. So put your mind at ease and give them a try!“

“Amazing food, friendly staff and great atmosphere!“
