Solid neighborhood bar. Hard to find a place in Evanston that’s open late. Food has taken a step up from a few years ago. $1 wings on Thursdays is great, fries are always very good. Drafts are a little pricey at $8 for most beers, and they charge 75 cents for carrots, celery, blue cheese each. Service can also be slow during peak hours, although always pleasant.

Ridgeville is one of my favorite spots. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is always on point. During sporting events the whole bar cheers at the same time, it has a great community feel. The servers have all gotten to know me and welcome me warmly every time; I usually stick to non-alcoholic beverages and they don’t mind at all. I love the wings special on Thursday nights, and have started bringing my co-workers along as well. I can’t recommend this establishment enough. WANNGGZZZ.

Literally the BEST place ever. Amazing rewards and SUCH good food!! Service is always speedy and the servers are the kindest people in the world. Always super accommodating, even on busy nights!! Ridgeville is my go to place to see friends and watch any sports. I am not exaggerating this is my happy place.

Ridgeville Tavern is a great spot with amazing drinks and a good atmosphere. Dollar wing night was a great deal! Araxi made the experience even better with friendly, professional service. I will definitely come back to see her at the bar.

Great first visit to Rudgeville Tavern tonight. The food was excellent. Our kids loved tge soft pretzel appetizer and they have outstanding wings (Thai chili sauce was so good) Both our boys were happy with kuds menu selections (buttered noodles and chicken tenders). My burger was perfect and my wife had a chicken sandwich she enjoyed. Great music playing as well. The best part was the service. Graham (guessing on the spelling) was extremely welcoming and friendly. He is an excellent ambassador for the Tavern. We will be back just because of how he took care of us. Thanks Graham.

I used to go to Ridgeville Tavern frequently, and for a long time it was one of my favorite spots in town. The food was consistently good and something I could always count on, paired with a solid beer selection and generally reliable service.
Unfortunately, that experience has changed. In recent visits, the tavern has become very outward and explicit in expressing its political views. What was once a comfortable place to enjoy a meal now feels uncomfortable and overall non-inclusive. Dining out should be about good food and a welcoming atmosphere, not overt political messaging.
Because of this shift, I’ll be taking my business elsewhere.

this place looked decent online but it was the worst mistake we did, came in for a drink and we sat at the bar and the girl bartender has curly hair specifically and she was not friendly at all and she looked mad all the time, my friends ordered a drink and my friends drink did not taste good at all so we asked kindly for something else and she gave us attitude. we tried to get the bartender’s attention and every time she looked like she was bothered at us if we asked for something else. this place had no ambiance or vibe at all and this was very disrespectful and disappointing

This is me and my friends first time coming here and honestly the server was very rude. We sat at the bar and she was immediately rude. I asked my friends to order a drink while I was in the bathroom and she rudely to my friends refused too because she needed to see my id. Fine. But then I show her my id and she gets me my drink. After that my friend didn’t like his drink and I asked her to replace it for a transfusion and she didn’t even apologize she kept going on about the mezcal saying oh you just don’t like mezcal you just don’t like the mezcal. And then my friend said oh I just don’t like how it tastes and she says yea cause of the mezcal and told her eyes and takes the drink away. I’m a server myself and I would never do this to my costumers… for starts I would apologize. Like saying I’m so sorry you don’t like it, can I get you something else. Something along those lines. So yea please train your servers/bartenders to have better costumer service cause this ain’t it.

I came on Tuesday night around 8 pm . Our bartender was very rude. We ordered a Paloma and i didn’t like how my drink was. It tasted terrible and I told her about it, she just said you don’t like mezcal, she never ask what was wrong, she just rolled her eyes like she was mad with me, but if im going to pay for a drink it should be for something good, she just made another drink and didn’t even apologize. All in all i don’t recommend this place.

Cute little pub! Food and drinks were great. Server was super nice and even gave us other recommendations for places to try. Carrot cake is my husband’s favorite and he wasn’t disappointed!
