Our waitress (I'm kicking myself for not noting her name) recommended 2 fantastic IPAs in a sea of IPAs for myself and an amazing sour for my wife. The pretzel chips we ordered were devoured by our 5yo and the pizza was terrific! We will definitely be coming back!

I came here because I've heard they got pretty decent tavern style pizza. The parking lot is huge…read more I wished they had more lighting here, especially at night. The service could be improved a bit. When we walked in, there was nobody to greet us within the first couple mins. After we got seated it was fine. They have pinball machines that you can play. I believe they're $1. They also have a room for parties and poker night. We ordered the hipsters vs lumberjacks beer, huckleberry wheat beer, a dozen chicken wings with sweet heat bbq, holy grail pizza. This would be a perfect 5 out of 5, however improve the service when customers walk in. 4.5 out of 5. -hipsters vs lumberjacks 5 - easy drinking red ale with vanilla. It's smooth and light. -huckleberry wheat 5 - this is an easy beer to sip during the summer. You can taste the berries but it's not overpowering. Mildly sweet beer. -chicken wings 5 - the chicken wings has flavor even without the bbq sauce. They are nicely grilled then lightly fried. The meat is very tender and juicy. -holy grail pizza 5 - the crust is cracker thin and crispy when it's hot. The pizza has a lot of flavor. You get some mild heat from the jalapeños and hot honey. Then, the mozzarella and ricotta cheese help cool your tongue. Everything is well balanced.

I have been wanting to try this place since I saw that their menu offers Filipino cuisine as well…read more I made reservations online for a Saturday dinner. We chose to sit in their outdoor area because the weather was beautiful. For this visit, I've tried: Armadillo eggs- I like the crunch of the crumbs, the flavors were good, but the filling was too heavy Kalbi Short Rib bowl- this was my daughter's dish. it was just ok The Nuremburger- this was the burger of the month (September). It was delicious; the fries were great as well The Smoky Ghost- if you like spice, this is the burger for you. I tried one of the Seltzer; it was okay. My daughter ordered the Raspberry Lime Cola; it was good, although it was a little too sweet for me. Service was friendly and prompt. Our server was very attentive and efficient. The indoor dining area was super loud, so we made a great choice by sitting outside. I wish they had more options for Filipino dishes. I only saw the lumpia appetizer and the beef sisig entree. Maybe next time?

Great Burgers, Fries, and Drinks!…read more I really enjoyed my visit here! I ordered the burger with fries, and everything looked so good when it came out. The burger was juicy, flavorful, and served on a nice, soft bun. The fries were crispy, well-seasoned, and came in a generous portion. I also enjoyed a refreshing sangria, which went perfectly with my meal. It's always nice to find a place where you can enjoy a good burger and a drink without feeling rushed. Overall, I had a really nice experience. Good food, good drinks, and a relaxing atmosphere. I would definitely come back again, especially when I'm craving a good burger and fries!

I returned here for a catchup session, and unbelievably to me, it's been over 3 years since I was…read morelast here.  More Brewing is still a most excellent pub with excellent beer and food offerings. On this coldish Wednesday winter evening, it wasn't as busy and boisterous as our previous visits, and that was just fine for our usual catchup party of 3.  Sam was our fine and attentive server and she adequately took care of the whole dining room on this night. Arriving at 5:30pm, we took advantage of Happy Hour and had 6 beers by 6pm for $5 each.  We also had a cheese curds appetizer for $10 (discounted from regular $12). I had my usual 3 beers for our catchup session, namely: - Moreover hazy IPA, 6.5% ABV - Mango Double Marbles Imperial IPA, 8.0% ABV - Appetizer hazy IPA, 5.5% ABV For food, I had their chicken tikka masala platter for $22.  My colleagues had a high steak sandwich with salad ($20), and an Italian Beef with fries ($18).  All were delicious.  There is now a 3% credit card fee.  Overall, still one of the best Chicagoland brewpubs around.

This place is fantastic. Their beer is brewed on site and it's delicious. They have rotating…read moreseasonal beers that keep the selection fresh year round. The service is friendly, knowledgeable, and fast. The establishment is attractive and always clean. While their food selection is limited to snacks (though I am really partial to the soft pretzels) they regularly have food trucks come out to supply a variety of foods and you can bring food in from a variety of local businesses. They even have a touch screen set up in the taproom to order a pizza from a local place. My wife, friends and I love to come here to have a pizza or some food truck food, a few beers and to play a few board games. It makes for a fantastic night out.

I've driven past Goldfinger Brewery more times than I can count, always telling myself, "I need to…read morestop in one of these days." Today finally felt like the right excuse. My service dog, Cooper, officially passed his service dog certification, so we wanted to celebrate. As it turned out, we accidentally picked the perfect day, it was Goldfinger's 6th anniversary. Between the outdoor tents, live music, food trucks, and everyone enjoying themselves, the place had an incredible energy. It felt like a big block party without feeling overcrowded or chaotic. The staff couldn't have been friendlier. They made great beer recommendations, welcomed us right away, and even brought Cooper a bowl of water without us having to ask. As any dog owner knows, the quickest way to our hearts is by treating our four-legged sidekick like family. Watching Cooper happily soaking up all the attention on such a big day for him made the experience even more memorable. The beer was excellent, the atmosphere was exactly what you'd hope for from a neighborhood brewery, and the whole place just had that genuine, welcoming vibe that makes you want to come back. It may have taken me six years to finally stop in, but I can promise it won't take me that long to visit again. Cheers to six years, Goldfinger and thanks for helping make Cooper's big day one we'll both remember.

What a great little neighborhood brewery! From the outside, this would pass as a dive bar but…read moreactually offers so much more! The inside is cozy with a large bar and tables to sit at. They have board games, darts, touchtunes, and more for entertainment. They had 9 of their own beers in tap as well as some guest beers. They also house fuse malort with flavors (11 to try)! My two friends got a beer and I got a whiskey/ginger ale. Pricing was very fair and pours were a good size. Both of my friends enjoyed their beers and I thoroughly enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere. Check out Lunar Brewing when in the area!

That's a good thing, but it can also become overwhelming when you're trying to decide on what to drink. I don't think I've ever eaten here, so I think they more or less offer bar snacks. I've never had bad service here. Although you may have to order your drinks at the bar if you're sitting at one of the tables. The times that I actually sat at the bar, the service was obviously better. The servers know their beer menu and can hold a good conversation if it's not too busy. It's a great place to stop in and enjoy a pint with friends and play a few rounds of darts.

We also tried a few of their beers, and they were all enjoyable. The atmosphere was very trendy and inviting, and we had amazing service. It's also a great, spacious place to host an event, such as a birthday party or office gathering. They have a HUGE TV in the middle of the bar, which was perfect for watching the Bears game! Definitely will be back to try more of their beers!

Situation on a busy corner in the downtown Lombard, this restaurant is pretty tiny but certainly hold its own. I ordered the brie and apple sandwich. The bread was fresh and the flavor combo was absolutely delicious. Even the side salad deserves recognition. It was simple but surprisingly flavorful with crispy lettuce. The fries were also excellent, and I was especially happy to see they serve aioli with them. Yum! The restaurant is housed in a charming historic building with a small interior and an expansive outdoor patio that's dog-friendly. Parking can be a little tricky when downtown is busy. Given the limited seated, I imagine wait times would be longer when the weather isn't kind or during colder months. The prices were very reasonable, especially considering the quality of food. I look forward to returning or grabbing takeout. Definitely a great, if not the best, little spot in downtown Lombard.

Went here for the first time.. it will be my last.I first want to say that the staff was extremely…read morefriendly that was the only positive and it being a historic building was the the other. I had a classic Cheeseburger with fries.. the meat was extremely dry not juicy at all the fries were so over salted I literally had to brush it off. I was so hoping to like it.I was also shocked that they don't serve dessert till after 4 .. dessert is not just an after dinner treat.One more thing they didn't even come around for refills felt very rushed out.

Two Hound Red is a nice, roomy, and chill brew pub in downtown Glen Ellyn.  The building apparently…read moreused to house a long time Schmid's Pharmacy and has a big, woody barn feel to it with solid wood tables throughout.  It's bright and airy towards the open front but darkish in the rear near the open kitchen.   Importantly to my pals and I, they also have a nice, big, and diverse beer selection and some good pub food.   I had my usual burger and beer dinner for this catchup session and for our usual beer geek party of 3.   We learned all pints are $5 all night on Thursdays, yippee, and they start conducting a trivia game at 7pm that appeared to draw more patrons in (it also got annoyingly a bit loud).  We started with pretzels ($9) and cheese curds ($13).  The pretzel slices weren't very fresh and probably the only slight disappointment to the evening.  The cheese curds were quite nice and delicious.  I had their delicious mushroom swiss burger with tater tots ($17).  One pal had the same and another had their Old Fashion burger and we all liked them.  It was stated to be a 6 oz burger but looked more like 8 oz, yum!  I also tried 3 of their IPA's: - Hazy Hound New England IPA, 6.3% ABV - Exponential Power IPA, 7.5% ABV - Pale Horse IPA, 7.2% ABV I really liked the Hazy Hound, thought their popular Exponential Power was decent, but I didn't particularly like the Pale Horse.   Overall, still a mighty fine beer menu here and I wouldn't mind a second try of their beer list.  What my pals drank is on the itemized bill photo for the record and we all enjoyed this outing and venue.   Our server was Eline M and she was knowledgeable and attentive to us loiterers. They have a small private parking lot but there is also plenty of easy street parking out front.   The big place wasn't particularly busy until close to 7pm trivial game time.  Overall, I'll go with 4.50 rounded up to 5 stars particularly for their nice $5 per pint Thursday promo.
