The food had that comforting pub feel and tasted really good. The wings were a little on the dry side, but the team happily brought extra veggies and dipping sauce when we asked, which made all the difference. The fried dill pickle chips were absolutely amazing, crispy, and full of flavor. Overall, we had a wonderful time and left completely satisfied.

This is a perfect place to watch a game with tons of TVs and beer selection. Service was average..flirting with below average but it was busy and we had a large group. The people in my group loved thier food..I was suggested the Ruben by the waitress..it was not as advertised. Very dry..average meat..very little cheese..I ate half of it and was done. Overall though I feel this is a great place.

Was in Chicago over the weekend found this place near our hotel… Cool atmosphere… Good food… Good service… Great place to watch the games! Only drawback… I was not drinking alcohol… I was drinking Arnold Palmers…. The bill came… I then realized that refills were not included…. I brought it up to the waitress… And stated if the refills were not included I would have not got them… She did take a few of them off the bill… Overall it’s was a good experience… Cheese curds and barbq brisket burger were delicious

Went to see the Bears vs Packers play off game! Atmosphere was fun! Everyone was having a good time! Food was great! We got the beefs and some appetizers. Kind of expensive though. Only thing was that it was SO hard to get a table. I’d recommend calling ahead to get a reservation if you’re going on a sports night.
Holy cow the service though is unmatched! Our server was very attentive, and I’m not sure how, because there were so many people! There was also a young blond man with glasses running around and bussing the tables and holy cow was he efficient. He made sure we NEVER ran out of water. I don’t even know how he noticed it was out he kept walking so fast.
Over all good time! Very cute bar with a fun atmosphere.

Mac and cheese was good! Kiara (spelling?) was an amazing bartender! We wanted a sweet shot so we gave her a recipe and she made it PERFECT!! Visiting the town for the weekend and First Draft was the perfect way to end our trip. They have touchtunes too! download the app and play your own music!

Post workshop meal! Great bar food in a quintessential Chicago bar…first time but had it bookmarked based on their reviews and menus…great service, slow when we got there at 6:30 but gradually got packed and we learned why…food was delicious! All of it from the pretzel bites to curds to homemade salt & vinegar chips…but the wings really stole the show…Kung Fu sauce was unique but the Caribbean BBQ was one of the best sauces I’ve ever had…which makes a second wing sauce I’ve had this month that’s wowed me! Reuben, Lettuce Wraps, Chicago Beef and Mac Daddy were all fantastic! Check them out if you’re in the area!

I truly cannot say enough good things about this place. From the staff, to the craft beer selection, and the amazing food this was the best place as a visitor to choose for a Saturday to watch some sports and have a great time. All the servers are friendly, helpful, and great at their job. The bar backs always made sure we had plenty of water and our table was always clean. The owner was interactive with his patrons, accommodating, and seemed to respect his staff. Ultimately I cannot say enough or recommend this spot enough and can’t wait till we visit Chicago again to come back!

Food is good and it came really quick, ordered a big 10 piece wings and great taste and good sauce. They have a great selection of draft beers as well as canned. Music is good and have an app so you can songs to playlists. Great for a dinner with friends, recommended bar. Multiple screens to watch all games at the same time.

Went for a quick drink and some rest after a day on our feet. It’s the first day of college football so it was busy, but they made room for us at a Reserved table with the stipulation that we be out by a certain time – no problem. The large beer list was great, and I have the Door County Cherry Wheat 4 stars on untapped. Lots of TVs showing many different sports.

I enjoyed a great meal and cold beer on my last night here on vacation from Sacramento, CA. Everyone was really nice and it was a welcoming atmosphere. I would have given a 5 star for service, but I observed something I took up with a member of staff that turned out to be the owner. I feel there is no need to explain due to the owner immediately addressing and rectifying my issue. The food was amazing, and I can’t wait to visit again to give a few other things on the menu a try.
