Petr J. • May 12, 2022Beer with a view! Lot of outdoor seating and diverse list of beers.

Egor H. • June 20, 2014Had a burger, scotch egg and some cider. I'm completely satisfied. Lovely view from outside tables btw.

Marie L. • May 28, 2023Central stop for caffeinated pauses. Excellent location near all the sights. Welcoming and fast service. Good seating area. Try their signature drinks.

Tiffany • October 2, 2015Line was quite long but get a small size since the caramel popcorn can get really sweet

Jack R. • March 7, 2016Cuban sandwiches were yummy and good value! Also get the black beans and white rice on the side if you want to turn lunch into dinner.

Rob H. • October 24, 2015Best Manhattan in Chicago (ask for Buffalo Trace) if the burger is on the menu do not pass this up! Service is exemplary!

Bashayer ♒️ • January 6, 2019Harvest Bowl is super yummy 😋

Paul H. • March 30, 2016Pancakes are good but they entrees and sandwiches are incredibly tasty, as well. Best sit down breakfast option in the loop by far and they serve intelligentsia coffee.

Kyra K. • May 19, 2019If you go at lunch they have a “secret burger” that’s not on the menu. It’s really good! Great service and nice view.

Elaine C. • March 18, 2020Kale Caesar is my go to salad with broccoli and onions added.

Natalie V. • April 23, 2017The portions here are massive! Highly recommend the pastrami hash and if you have a sweet tooth, the giant cinnamon roll.

Zaida D. • June 21, 2019The Chai latte is one of the best I tasted in Chicago, if you want some different to coffee, this is the choice.

Dennise M. • February 11, 2018The Chicago Classic is really good and cheesy. The wait line is a little long but the wait is worth it.

Naywri W. • July 11, 2017I started out with house made chips and they were great. Then I had the ML slider that came with cheese and their house made ketchup. It was very good.

Jon B. • January 6, 2019Very good quality steakhouse in the loop. They offered a Copain Pinot Noir by the glass that is an excellent value.

Tania S. • January 20, 2011Service is fast and most importantly friendly. Best sandwich makers in town. Never a bad experience.

Jessica Z. • February 4, 2016Cocktails are creative and delicious, the space is beautiful, and games, duh. Get there earlier though. Went there from 3-5 on a Friday, then to dinner next door, and after 5 the place was mobbed.

Joanne G. • July 15, 2016Make a reservation for a table, jam packed at 4pm, no room at the bar even. Very trendy, fabulous views

Nathan H. • April 26, 2019Great food hall for lunch with lots of different options to keep you coming back!!! Recommend.

Claire C. • October 7, 2013The chicken laffa is great. Extra tahini, extra hot sauce and lots of veggies. Definitely coming back

Alison • February 5, 2024We came for restaurant week and it was a great deal. The ambience is sophisticated and inviting. The food was outstanding, I was head over heels for the miso sauce that came with my steak. Recommend!

M D. • May 16, 2021Group of 9 had different sandwiches and platters. All were good. Service and drinks great, too.

Jacquey K. • May 21, 2015Loving the morning sandwich! Coffee is great, not a fan of the macchiatos, milk to espresso was strange. Pastries look amazing!

Julie H. • August 12, 2016The house salad and the Cheese deep dish pizza are delicious. The veggie pizza has a ton of moist veggies which makes it hard to fully bake both layers completely.

Matt H. • December 23, 2014Like every Potbelly location, I recommend the vegetarian on wheat with hot peppers. Unbelievably good.

Carol • September 22, 2016The falafel is crispy and hot and extremely flavorful. I also got the kefta sandwich and it was super messy but tasted amazing

Jonathan F. • August 6, 2015The lobster roll is amazing and absolutely delicious. And there is hardly any wait.

Manoj A. • June 1, 2022Lot of good brunch options that are lighter and healthy yet still very tasty. Would def return

Mark H. • October 10, 2011Chicago Mix is an excellent choice for 1st timers. But I would go with the caramel one the next time around. Really really good popcorn!
