Chicago TribuneFebruary 25, 2015Two glowing fireplaces warm this charming salon, including one in a slightly elevated section outfitted like a library. Check out hearty dishes like the chicken pot pie or the lobster mac' n' cheese. Read more

C ReyMarch 25, 2017A neighborhood classic with expansive food and drink menu. Great for all times of the day and groups of just about any size. Friendly servers and nooks keep this large place cozy.
Jordyn NeversAugust 23, 2014Love the Mac and Cheese. Spinach and Artichoke dip is always a pleaser too! The patio is nice in the summer, but it gets busy so you might end up enjoying the breeze indoors through the open windows.
Wonderful staff and amazing food! I like to bring a book or a redeye and just sit at the bar and chat with the bartenders. So beautiful when its all dolled up for Christmas!
ShycuAugust 14, 2017Had a quick lunch on the patio. Had a yummy pear cider and a chipotle turkey burger. Turkey burger was messy to eat but very flavorful. Great people watching. Parking could be tricky.
BiancaSeptember 5, 2020Do you like spicy? Try the chicken sandwich Nashville style. Cheese curds are good, too. The whiskey sour it’s weird, more like s sweet cocktail, stay with an honest drink.
John PierceOctober 15, 2016Interesting bar/pub, unexpectedly large and comfortable inside. Large brunch/lunch menu. Chick BLT was sizably good. Vanilla French Toast also very good. Nicely garnished Bloodies, we've seen better.
My fav bar in the hood 1/2price wine tues, never had a bad meal, friendly staff and fun bartenders. Awesome beer selection.. vanilla porter on draught is killer and the special right now!!Curry fries
Martin SlusarzSeptember 21, 2015Excellent food and wine selections. Blue cheese burger rocked-ate the whole thing. Loved the outside seating and excellent service!
Danielle PacropisJuly 9, 2016Grilled chicken sandwich and the FRIES. Make sure you get white sauce for the fries/anything else to dip with
James AnthonyFebruary 24, 2014Excellent atmosphere. A classy business pub that is great for dinner, a beer, or doing work with a Whiskey. Check out their unique interior library!
Time Out ChicagoOctober 31, 2011Once inside this sprawling space—which has separate areas for eating pub grub, watching the game from the bar and even reading (in the cozy "library")—you just may find yourself wanting more.
Great menu. Chicken pot pie is delicious, burgers are good, salads are really nice. All huge portions.
Fernanda Nunes RamalhoNovember 14, 2012Great food, beautiful atmosphere and decor! Pretty good service! I love this place, either for a beer, dinner or just watch a game!
Rishad TobaccowalaAugust 23, 2014This place has a good beer selection with 15 and 75 in bottles ( why bottle though). Drink here then eat at Bombay Bliss a block down ( BYOB)

Lots of meat, lots of food, and so filling.
Melissa HannaMay 17, 2013Iceberg Wedge with bacon, Wilde Burger and Cavalo Nero soup are all excellent choices. The edamame black bean salad is yummy too.
Caitlin BoyleMarch 11, 2012Mac n cheese, Reuben, buffalo chicken sandwich and chicken pot pie are to die for.... Great outside sitting area... Fun to people watch
Cozy spot in the winter, great for brunch. Everything I've had is good but the granola and yogurt is by far my favorite.
Check out the Gluten Free menu! Choose from a wide, and DELICIOUS, selection of brunch, entreés, desserts and even cocktails.
Meredith BMay 9, 2015Something on the menu for everyone, great group spot, good beer menu and great pub food!
Bobby KennedyApril 24, 2016The decor is inviting and they've got some good beers. You just have to put up with the crowd and service.
JonathonAugust 2, 2010Awesome atmosphere. Many classic favorites including meatloaf, Mac and cheese, And fish and chips. They also feature an Irish menu with bangers and mash, shepherds pie, and Irish breakfast.
XinnieDecember 18, 2017Chipotle turkey burger was awesome! Juicy and yum. Sweet potato fries were good too!
- Melody LeggeMay 16, 2015Cozy. Great ambiance. Dark wood. Little library seating area. Great booths. Good food.
Claire PistekMarch 28, 2015Super cozy, gray on a cold or winter day. Sit in the library pay by the fireplace if you can.
Nina MarieOctober 15, 2014Their Mac & Cheese is famous for good reason, and you can even get a gluten-free version!
Food is GREAT! Haven't had anything bad (and I have had most of the menu), but didn't care for the knife and fork caesar salad. Go on Thursdays for $5 champagne drinks and specialty cocktails. Open l
Zach DanielMay 10, 2015Try the Mac and cheese. Definitely the best sit down Irish restaurant around.
Jake SmithDecember 4, 2012Oscar Wilde once said: “I can’t stand people who do not take food seriously.” At the restaurant named after him, food is taken very seriously: it's quite delicious.
- Michael ReynoldsDecember 22, 2012My favorite local bar. Great beer menu, good food and always a seat at the bar
GabbyDecember 9, 2010Everything here is quite tasty but I must warn you...the servers, they are all great people, but seem to be a bit spacey. Order things ahead of time!! You might have to ask twice for things!
Always great food and a fantastic atmosphere. Meatloaf, buffalo chicken sandwich, fish and chips, Irish chopped salad, you really can't go wrong.
Kimisha L. PierceJanuary 1, 2014Try the gin and tonic - The BEST Gin & Tonic I've ever had. #classyjoints #greatservice
