    We came in today to celebrate my mom's wedding and Brittany was absolutely amazing! Could not have been sweeter. Great recommendations and even some macaroons (which were incredible) on the house! All our food was great. Wine too! Such a fun time and wonderful service!

    Cute wine shop in downtown DG. Servers are friendly and attentive. Menu features wine, some cocktails, beers/ciders, and food. Try the cheese board -- it is excellent! Nachos and sandwiches are solid, too. Here is a pic of my white sangria. Hits the spot on a summer day!

    Never coming back

    Service was not great. Ordered stuffed mushrooms, truffle burrata and wine. Stuffed mushrooms were okay. 6/10 "Truffle" burrata, is pretty, but 2/10 Definitely not enough burrata and If truffle is going to be on the menu we should be able to taste a little bit of truffle. There was not a single trace of truffle, ZERO TRUFFLE I assume they mistakenly forgot, I NICELY mentioned it and the lady with blond short hair in a yellow shirt. She didn't seem like a normal waitress. She didn't apologize or check. She told me "well they put a little of it on there." Terrible response.. Definitely will not be coming back.

    Yummy deliciousness with a side of fun& attentive service. This is a great local spot to enjoy a lovely glass of wine or a pint of their large variety of on- tap ale. The cheese board was delicious and although my friend and I each ordered a glass of wine, the server kept bringing us little tastes of something new to try which made it even more enjoyable!

    Affordable AND DELICIOUS! Stuffed mushrooms and steak nachos were on point! Service is amazing also by Lena.

    One of our favorite spots in the neighborhood. They have a HUGE wine and drink selection with great food that pairs perfectly. Definitely recommend for a date night or a night out with friends.

    Such a cute little wine shop in downtown Downers! We went on a Friday night around 5-6 pm, and we're able to get a table on the patio right near the sidewalk without a wait. In fact it was pretty slow, and picked up later through the evening. I was pretty confused if we should seat ourselves or pick out a bottle of wine and then sit. It wasn't really clear to me and I asked a staff member and he said we could do either. I hoped that meant they would bring menus, and luckily they did. They had a good wine selection, and a small dinner menu, which was perfect for us! Our table outside was kind of at an angle, and I would have loved if they had some background music or something playing, but otherwise the patio was great! Our server was fantastic, even though he seemed very busy - and we split a charcuterie board which was DELICIOUS! I definitely love their bread and the fig jam too! (Fig jam + goat cheese is a dream!) The prices weren't too expensive for a wine bar, and I would have loved to have try more on their menu. (Especially considering they had a FAKE CHICKEN salad on their menu, and I'm ALLL about places that think about vegetarians.) Great place for a glass of wine and a low key night!

    Sangria is fantastic and they usually have something going on - live music or bingo. The service is average depending on who you get though.

    This is quickly becoming my local neighborhood bar. We love stopping in here after our commute home…read morefrom the city or on a random afternoon to get out of the house. They have a lot of board games to borrow, pinball machines and multiple TVs usually playing some live sports. The best part about this place though is the staff - we've met the owner a few times when we're in, and have a favorite bartender who always seems to be here when we come. They are absolutely incredible and seem like just good people. For those who become regulars, the Draft Class membership is definitely worth it if you can snag one!

    NINETY-NINE BOTTLES OF BEER ON THE WALL…read more This bottle shop in downtown Downers Grove has a myriad of craft options. Prior to last weekend, every time I walked past Orange & Brew the lights were still off (they don't open until noon) so I had no choice but to peer longingly thru the windows into a dark business. I finally stopped in during normal hours with the family in tow on the first Saturday in August. I got a mix-and-match 4pk of IPAs + pilsners for my dad, who has oft complained about the lack of decent brewskis at my house. Well Opa, now you've got a quartet of 16oz craft cans to pick from, so no more grumbling about "only shitty light beer" in the downstairs fridge! They have a large cooler for people to take beer to-go. My wife grabbed a 4pk of rosé hard cider ($13) which she later claimed tasted too much like kombucha. I found it refreshing, like a Woodchuck or Strongbow with a gorgeous deep purple hue. Of course I had to play their four pinball tables on the left side ($1 per game). They had a Stranger Things (with snazzy UV kit upgrade!), Deadpool, 007, and Rick & Morty. The first three are newer Sterns that play decently, but R&M is a strange design from Spooky Pinball that I've yet to figure out. * TL;DR * Take one down, pass it around.....that'll be $6, please! Orange & Brew shares plenty of similarities with Beer Shop in Oak Park: brews on tap, assorted brews in bottles on a shelf, and a fridge full of cold brews to take home. The biggest difference is that O&B has pinball tables, and that bumps them up a star. The guy behind the counter who tapped my beer didn't smile (or even say thanks) when we cashed out. I got the feeling he was apprehensive about my wife and I bringing our 4yo & 1yo kids in here, probably afraid they'd crack open and chug a beer without paying. But seriously, they were very well behaved. If I'm in the area and Orange & Brew is open, I'm definitely stopping in for a cold pint and a few games of pinball. Check them out!

Whiskey Hill is a funny name, as this place has beer, not whiskey. Oh well, what they have is still good. There's a pretty good selection including some hoppy and sours. A lot of breweries are in kind of strange areas. It's the case with this one. This is located on Vandustrial in a building it share with some offices and whatever. Lots of trucking companies around here. There's semis parked along the street. Anyway, the beers. It's about $6 a pour. It's not quite a pint but whatever. Even so, a pretty good price for a small brewery. Has many to choose from. Best was the 7 Mile Bridge. It's a Belgian Weisse with key lime, toasted coconut, and vanilla. A lot of lime flavor. This is almost like a sour to be honest. A pretty strong one at 7% ABV. There's not a whole lot on tap, but they manage to have quite a bit for a microbrewery to be honest. Get some beers on tap or take some of the cans to go. It's a small place but when it's warmer they have a patio. There's no food but sometimes there's food trucks.

The liver soup not my favorite only because it had a liver taste--which if you like, then you'll like it. The saurkraut and purple cabbage the best Ive ever tasted and worth getting. The spetzel so-so, not much flavor. Son liked it though. The bread dumplings ok. More like white bread. The big pork shank that is the prize-it was good but not as stellar as we thought it would be. And we did make sure to order it crispy like it said to and it wasn't. Looked like it was a little browned but even my young son said the fat isn't rendered. I think it would have been a lot better if it had been crispy like in other pictures on here. Disappointed. It's like $35. Not cheap. The beef with sauce (sauerbraten) was good, the sauce great, the beef ok. The special that was going on, the beef roulade. Nobody liked it at all. The stuff just didn't taste good together in it. Overall, it was a good experience. The waitress Rosie was amazing, most of the food was great to awesome. The ambiance was German and cozy. Our favorites: the curry wurst sauce, the saurkraut and red cabbage and the stuffed cabbage rolls.
