    a glass of beer

    Great spot, good energy. Had a couple beers here, they tasted good. I went here after having the best egg roll of my life. There were too many white people here but w/e it happens.

    Order from Jake, the sexy bartender! Makes such good mules and dirty shirleys. If you're lucky, he will make you a Jake shot. Great atmosphere and has a skee ball machine so make sure to bring cash!

    Bought a groupon for this place. My husband and I came here after work for drinks. The bartender was very nice. They had great drink specials. They do not serve food here, but they are connected to a Greek restaurant that does. We were able to order dinner from there. Great place to just stop by for drinks.

    Ahhh yes, Glascotts, my favorite neighborhood bar in Lincoln Park. I'm unfortunately moving out of the neighborhood soon which means I'll have to find a new local watering hole, but Glascotts has been all I could ask for. With its long history of being the local corner tap, Glascotts screams history. The bar is at least 100 years old and still features the original hand made wooden bar. It truly is a taste of Ireland and I'm convinced the bar was opened by 1st generation Irish immigrants. They have a decent tap list and cocktail selection. Watch out for rumplemintz, it's always flowing here. One of the best parts of glascotts is that it's connected to the Athenian room - amazing Greek food. The servers come into the bar to serve as well. Nothing like some hot, greasy Greek food with your cold IPA. Pro Tip - great place to go for a cubs or blackhawks game.

    I literally opened my own beer yesterday, handed a closed beer and opened it myself. Maybe it was the rush of hmmmmm NO ONE at the bar. These guys must get a good hourly because they could careless about schmoozing. Two people walked in about 10:26. 12/10/13 and they weren't greeted or acknowledged, in fact they yelled, can we just get two bud lights! One bartender with his back to us playing a game on his phone, the other bartender on her I pad. It took them about 45 minutes to decide to turn off the obnoxious tvs after game for jukebox. Who's in charge here??

    Warm and lovely British pub with delicious pies and efficient service…read more My dining partner and I tried the mushroom and kale and the rocking vegan pies. The mushroom and kale pie was nice and cheesy and the rocking vegan pie was more savoury, with a variety of vegetables and chickpeas as stuffing. The crust was neither too soft nor too crunchy. The highlight of the meal was the curry chips: potato wedges lightly fried with masala and curry leaves. The dipping sauce that came with the chips reminded me of tikka masala sauce, and paired beautifully with the chips. Dessert was toffee pudding: the caramel sauce that came with the pudding was delectable - the pudding itself was excellent and not overly sweet. We tried a variety of NA beers, and I was pleased with how many options they had. Service was quick, and we were well looked after. The ambiance is warm, with dim-ish lighting and a lot of dark wood. The restrooms were gorgeous - special shoutout to the lovely floral wallpaper. Overall, I highly recommend Pleasant House - the vibe is chill and understated and the food is stellar.

    Everything I could ask for in a English pub. Great beer…read moremenu, enough different options but a clear focus on bitters, ales, pub ales, etc. Started with a scotch edge and it was delicious. The sausage was very tasty, the breading on the outside was incredibly crisp, light, and the egg inside was cooked well. Both the steak pie and the chicken pie were very good. The chicken pie I think really needed the chutney that you can get separately. But that made it so much better and made it my preferred pie. The steak and ale pie was better than the chicken pie as a standalone, but needed a bit more gravy I think to elevate it. Sticky toffee pudding again was delicious. Surprisingly light, not overly dense so I was glad it came with the custard which was very flavorful. Overall, will definitely return!

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.

We were there on Friday, so the fish and chips were all-you-can-eat. So crispy on the outside and flakey on the inside. So yummy.

Whiskey fans, you'll love the huge selection along with the impressive beer selection. Yelp should really hype this as a whiskey bar, too. It more than qualifies. The cuisine is phenomenal. Definitely a place to bring a large party on your first visit, so you can sample a multitude of wonderful creations. 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. A tall order since most would hate "true" haggis. Fear not, it's not your grandfather's haggis, it is a tasty burger. The fries were great but I'd recommend the Tattie Skins. We tasted so many different malts it was hard to pick a favourite. No foolin' they had island malts, highland malts, speyside and even a couple from the lowlands. Easy to spend over two hours in this public house. We did. Can't wait to get back to this town. This is a must! 02/26
