    Brisket nachos
    Kat B.

    A hidden gem!! This place has amazing food, the service is the best, and they also have parking. Their patio is beautiful and you can watch the game while enjoying the sun. Kid friendly fly too. We ordered the brisket nachos (to die for ), onion rings (the best I've had and worth the drive) and wings to share. Everyone ordered a different type of burger/sandwich (all delicious). The kids got ice cream too. All around perfect.

    Been a fan of this place for a few years. I have yet have a bad meal here. Hot a fresh burgers. Fries,cheese curds, and beef brisket nachos. Great place before or after a Sox game. Family friendly. You can't go wrong with anything on menu. The sliders are awesome. Burger, shrimp and chicken sliders are very good. You will be back for more. Enjoy.

    Cheeseburger
    Ali C.

    Wow! The best ever bacon cheeseburgers and brussels sprouts. We saw a review on one of the local TV programs and decided to try this out - no regrets whatsoever. Fries were delicious. We rarely eat hamburgers, but this was absolutely phenomenal. The bun was toasted and perfect, the melted cheese, grilled bacon and hamburger - YUMMY! A must for burger lovers. The brussels sprouts were also prepared with bacon (real bacon, not the fake pieces) and probably the best I have ever tasted. I dread to return due to the tendency to over indulge.

    Meatball sandwich

    I've been to this place several times and I'm really starting to love it. The atmosphere is great especially if you're a White Sox fan. Today I tried the crispy buffalo chicken sandwich and I have to say, it's a very close race to my favorite meal here. If you're in town for a Sox game stop by and try their signature pub burger. Don't forget the egg!

    zero stars. beer was flat and warm. I order 6 wings and point to it on the menu. she asks do I want 10 instead. sure. fine. look at this... 6 wings 9.25. 10 wings 19.00. I question her, she says nothing she can do that's how the computer is. Absolutely terrible service.

    See all

    Get the grilled ribeye sandwich and cheese fries. It's probably my favorite flavors on the menu.

I scanned the QR code and went to the bathroom. As I walked back there, I noticed there were 4 open spots at the bar and there were 6 2-top tables set up, which was confusing because there was a 45 minutes wait. Walking back from the bathroom I thought I would ask the bartender if the seating at the bar was also reserved by through the waitlist. I walked up ( did not attempt to sit down as that part of the bar was not clean) and the bartender started rudely saying "have you spoken to the host " I said yes but I had a question, and she continuously said " you have to speak to the host." I told her that I just had a question for her then she rudely said again "sometimes we use this as seating so-rry." My partner and I decided to leave after that. I had never been treated that way in my life. I open my mouth to say something and I couldn't because I was rudely interrupted. I felt like I was hurried out of the area. After being here countless times before and exploring the menu with friends and family, I don't think I will ever come back as this left a bad taste in my mouth. It's hard to go back when you feel you were discriminated against. My partner and I felt like we were that night as the attitudes and behaviors from the bartender and hostess were rude.

After leaving the symphony, we wanted somewhere nearby to grab a meal and have a good conversation, so we ended up at Miller's Pub at 134 S. Wabash. My colleague had made a reservation, but honestly, it didn't seem necessary, you can easily walk in. Miller's Pub is a longtime Chicago staple, and we were seated quickly. The space is much larger than it appears, with a classic Irish pub feel and an antique charm that gives it a lot of character. Our server was enthusiastic, attentive, and very accommodating throughout the night, which we appreciated. Food-wise, we ordered a variety of dishes. I kept it simple with a salad topped with carrots and chicken, it was just okay, nothing particularly memorable. One of my colleagues ordered a chicken sandwich, and another got what might have been the most massive fish tender I've ever seen. If I ate fish, I definitely would've tried it, and she said it was really good. Unfortunately, what really impacted our experience was the atmosphere. There was a choir conference happening nearby, and a large group of attendees came into the pub and started singing, loudly and continuously, throughout the evening. While it was entertaining for the first couple of songs, it quickly became overwhelming and disruptive. It didn't seem like other patrons were enjoying it either, there was little to no engagement or applause, and I found myself wishing the staff had stepped in to tone things down a bit. I understand that a bar environment can bring in all kinds of energy, but this went on far too long and really took away from the experience we were hoping to have. Based on the food alone, I'd give Miller's Pub 3 out of 5 stars. But factoring in the overall experience, it's closer to a 2.5 out of 5 for me.

I had been wanting to try Industry Ales when it opened and was glad to have had the opportunity to finally check it out! I was slightly thrown off, as the dining tables are at the front of this space, and the bar is all the way at the back. In fact, my friend at first glance thought it was a sit-down dining establishment sans bar seating. We found our way to the bar and posted up at two seats. We were offered menus right away and found the bartender extremely knowledgeable. This was super helpful when facing down an encyclopedia of ales. He offered samples when we explained what we were looking for. That is service above and beyond, especially on a bustling Friday early evening. The brews were tasty, but I couldn't really discern what I was drinking apart to say it was a lighter Belgian Ale. Wine is more in my wheelhouse, but always good to change things up, especially when a person has the opportunity to be guided by an expert. The people seated nearby had ordered the tuna tartare which looked delicious. In fact, all of the menu is globally influenced (think: pizza samosas, pierogis, Korean BBQ) in addition to the classic brewpub favorites. In addition to the Brewpub, this location features the Millroom, a speakeasy-style lounge. I did not have a chance to check that out on this visit. Definitely a cut above the usual sports bar and a place to expand one's knowledge of brews.

Pro Tip: if you can tolerate a large quantity of fish, visit on a Wednesday for their AYCE Fish & Chips. I've had many hum drum AYCE dinners that are drab and only fill you up. Not this one. It's a great meal and a great deal. The Shepherd's Pie was fabulous, as was the Bangers and Mash. They've created a Haggis Burger that has to appease Americans, yet, still be haggis.
