Our server was very nice. I took my daughter for st patty's day. This place is cute although the seats were falling apart they could do with reupholstering them or replacing them all together. I like the fact that they have books for kids it kept my book worm occupied. I enjoyed a chocolate pie from first slice cafe. The flavor of my other dishes Mac and cheese, fish and chips and Reuben croquettes were all ice cold. This seems to be a common complaint from some of the reviews I read. I didn't send it back because my kid was HANGRY lol. The kitchen needs to work on this also my fish from the fish and chips was mushy. But I will return on a less busy day and I'm sure it'll be better read more

Lady Gregory's is definitely an elevated Irish pub. Everything is very pleasing to the eye and stylish. We sat at the bar and had a wonderful experience. Beers and drinks were very good. The bar tenders were both very accommodating. Our food took a bit longer than it should have but it was delicious nonetheless. A great spot to stop at if you're in the area! read more

We just cant stay away from Lady Gregory's! The food here always comes out delicious and the portions are perfect. My partner is gluten free (Celiac) and we have always had great experiences with this expansive GF menu. Some favorites: The Brussel sprouts. After Aba, I think these are some of my favorite brussels in Chicago. They're the kind of sprouts I'd give to someone who says "I just don't like brussel sprouts." Because they are truly out of this world! The Spicy Chicken Sandwich is excellent! Spicy, but not overwhelming. The ranch and pickles are fantastic too! The Fries! I could eat those all day! The Drive Thru Burger! My partner doesn't eat red meat, so we sub chicken for the patty. I've never found a chicken breast as moist and as tasty as they are here. Service is usually pretty good even when it gets crowded. The beer menu is nice and they have plenty of Gluten Free beer options! If I had to give a point off for anything it would be that it gets pretty dark inside. The ambiance is definitely a moody upscale pub vibe. However, during the summer a seat by the window will fix that if its an issue for you! read more

Overpriced and service needs some work. The chicken in the chopped salad wasn't good. It had that "sitting around for hours" taste. I moved it all to the side of my plate and not once did the waitress ask "How is everything?" When clearly, the chicken had not been enjoyed. It was lunchtime on a Monday and they weren't busy. It took quite some time for someone to come and take my order. Not to mention, the music was HORRIBLE and made me want to leave. Too bad. read more

A friend of mine told me about Lady Gregory's and how much she enjoyed her experience. I had lunch there with a friend today. I ordered a Blacksmith (Guinness & Smithwick's) basically a "half & half", I liked it and my friend ordered a Half Acre Daisy Cutter Pale Ale, she said it was good. I chose the Shepard's Pie which was very good with one exception, it had too much-mashed potato filling and not enough of the stew-like filling. My friend ordered the Blackened Chicken Club Sandwich she said it was very good and only could eat half of it because it was big. Our server was pleasant and the rest of the staff was too. Clean unisex bathrooms. Nice selection of music but it was too loud. read more

Had a delightful dinner here with an old friend. Our server, Johnery, was amazing. I arrived first, so he brought my drink and told me to just relax and chill. That was exactly what I needed to hear! After my friend arrived and he found out we hadn't seen each other for 40 years, he told us that was beautiful, that we were still friends after all these years and not seeing each other all the time. He was wonderful. One of the best servers I've ever had. We both ordered from the specials menu. I had the lobster mac & cheese, and it was amazing. My friend had the schnitzel, and said it was also very good. The house Manhattan was on point. I wouldn't change a thing about our evening. It was just wonderful, and I look forward to going back. read more

Good food good service good ambiance man what else could you ask for ? I mean come on man what else could you ask for? read more

The hot wings were delish and the highly addictive sauce sooo yummy! Also had the Shepards Pie which was ok. Next time I would try the Pot Pie. I was jealous as I spied several being served and they looked amazing. Service was excellent! It was a beautiful day so we dined outside but the interior looks nice and welcoming. read more

I WANTED to like Lady Gregory's! I usually love Irish bars, and that's probably cause I usually am drinking a beer...so I would advise you to stick to the basics and drink that beer! I ordered a mixed drink but found it was too sweet, I did send it back, but the next drink which was some sort of margarita was still super sweet. I didn't try the food so I can't say how that is...It was super packed on a Friday evening though! Would I come back? Maybe for a beer, but it's very loud in there. read more

A great find in the Andersonville area. We have been there several times and always have great service, minimal (if any) wait, and great food. The chicken pot pie is delicious. read more

Food, service and ambience are always excellent. The grilled cheese is over the top. Buddha bowl with salmon is my favorite and I've ordered it a number of times. Best restaurant in Andersonville. read more

We had an ABSOLUTE BLAST last night. Thank you to our server, Esmé!! She took excellent care of our party of five and made sure our guest of honor felt welcomed and celebrated on her special night. We researched a safe space to celebrate my niece's coming out as trans journey and we picked the perfect spot. Be sure to book in advance as it was hopping last night, a Saturday. The drinks were off the charts- I highly recommend the lemon/mango + vodka cocktail as well as Strawberry Fields. There were several vegetarian options and I thoroughly enjoyed my curried veg potpie with the puffiest crust- beautiful! Our guests also loved their salmon, chicken, and burger meals. We shared 3 desserts and could not finish them- they were very generously portioned and so rich!! Amazing. An all around perfect evening and I can't wait to return. Every staff member was welcoming and so enthusiastic and kind. Gender neutral bathrooms appreciated. Love love love this place! read more

Me and my boyfriend went there for dinner tonight June 26 Pride Weekend. The server was great and friendly. I had the burger and fries. My boyfriend had the Asian chicken salad. The food was great, took a little bit longer because the restaurant was busy. We have been here before and try to come once a month. We will be back later this summer for sure. read more

Honestly, we hadn't been to Lady Gregory's in a while, but we returned in the last few weeks for lunch. Food: Still solid and very good! We had French onion soup and and an order of fish n' chips. All great, and same as it ever was. Service: Attentive, friendly, professional and low-key. Ambiance: The library room with the fireplace in the back is very comfortable. There is also a semi-private room that seats 8-10, and is very nice for a small group. Extensive bar. read more

Second time coming here and we were pleased to be served by Johnard again. His attentive attitude and personable manner made our experience well worth it. We were looking forward to a specific item, but it was not available. Nonetheless our second options were delicious, making this visit a success! read more

Always, always on the lookout for a great Irish Pub--Lady Gregory's was the quintessential feel good hang. Unique Bloody Mary with a far out homemade mix, delicious Irish Coffee. Crispy Brussels Sprouts had a killer sauce; we had to order two of these... The Curry Pot Pie was the ultimate; with the flakiest pastry puff, and a very savory curry. Definitely big enough to split. Looking forward to becoming regular degulars here. read more

Lady Gregory's - Chicken Curry Pot Pie - New American Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This place has plenty of patio space with a great view of the neighborhood. I came in at night and the low lighting was really attractive. Cute ceiling lamps dropped down around accenting windows. The polished hard wood floors lead around the interior with enough space for groups or for an intimate date. The clean bathrooms are directed down the lower lever by stair cases. It was nice to walk through that gap, as it gives the place some extra breathe. I sat at the bar and ordered the Lavender Paloma. It was tequila based and came with what seemed a crispy orange slice that I almost considered eating (just kidding). The cocktail menu was really impressive with plenty of alternative options. I definitely have to try the Elderflower Love the next time I come in. Hopefully the bartender is friendlier, he didn't greet me and had a hard time making a eye contact. The hosts where dressed business casual, yet his baseball cap and the booty shorts his fellow bartender was wearing did not match. read more

My wife and I celebrated our eighth year of marriage at this restaurant. Our waitress Frances was super sweet and highly informative regarding the items on the menu. we had the cheddar artichoke dip, fish and chips and salmon with mash potatoes and asparagus all delicious and I had a lemon drop martini that I wasn't to please with but, not everyone makes a good martini. the atmosphere was great just a little noisy and dark indoors, I usually go in the summers and sit outdoors. excellent restaurant and I highly recommend a visit to this Irish Pub specially for the Irish Celebration read more

The food really stands out, so many options in the area and Lady Gregory's keeps me coming back.

Food was good. Ambiance great. Service great. Had a perfect dirty martini-- I got the dirty on the side. Good neighborhood place to go when your party has different dietary concerns. read more

Great burger and fries seasoned great. I felt that the portion size was just right and not overly large. Sat outside on my last visit. I previously had come for dinner several years ago and the inside was very nice. Friendly staff as well. read more

Highly highly highly recommend the French Onion Soup. Also a big fan of the Ultimate Grilled Cheese - normally I would order a grilled cheese with tomato soup, but this sandwich doesn't even need it. Staff is friendly, lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Haven't eaten anything here I don't like - but to be fair, I mostly have the grilled cheese and soups because they are SO GOOD. read more

Strolled in on a lazy Sunday after an Atlas Obscura tour of Andersonville and was surprised to see this placed pretty packed! We are familiar with Wilde, and Lady Gregory's did not disappoint. Justin was our server and he was just the cutest! Super on top of it, very welcoming and polite. We sat in one of the 2-tops smashed between the bar stools and the bench seating. This made me incredibly nervous for someone to elbow me in the face or knock my drink over. I'm little, and that space was tight! All is well that ends well, I suppose. No one got a black eye, and I didnt end up with my lunch in my lap. Interior is great; very reminiscent of the sister brick and mortar, Wilde. The bathrooms (one the bar floor) are clean looking but I think someone has been peeing on the floor. It smelled like the redline and that's not super great. I know this is probably an old building...but you can do better. My lunch partner and I both got burgers and we literally hoovered them. Hit the hangover right in the face. read more

Beautiful location in the Swedish area of Chicago. Street parking only just like everywhere else. Great service, beautiful restaurant, comfortable dining experience and great art. We piled into a big six-person booth and settled in for a good meal. They had a great beer selection even though it was only brunch. Craft, porters, stouts and coffee brews kept us both hydrated and warm. It was a nippy day in the windy city. I ordered the Eggs Benedict. My friends had the Lady G Burger, Lemon Risotto Blueberry pancakes, and the Omelet. All of the food was on par. Nothing was amazing. My friend with the pancakes took the longest nap ever once we got home. I'm a huge, huge fan of Eggs Benedict and while the essentials were covered in my meal, it was definitely nothing to write home about. It was all pretty flavorless and came out already cooled off for normally being such a robust dish. I feel like I paid for mainly the fried potato slices. Everyone else was satisfied with their food. I'm definitely a fan I just think they could use someone in the kitchen with a little more attention to detail. read more

Had a great experience dining at the outdoor seating with my family. We really appreciated the vegetarian menu - I had the Buddha bowl which was huge, tasty, and healthy, my brother got a salad, and my parents got the plant based chicken sandwiches. Our server was wonderful and the ambiance was nice with the flowers. Will definitely be returning! read more

Came here to have lunch with a friend and it was nice enough that we were able to sit outside. Thankfully our waitress let us know there was a 1.5 hour limit for the table, otherwise we might've sat there enjoying the sun and strawberry lemonade cider all afternoon. Those ciders were sooo good- it wasn't on the menu but our waitress recommended it. I had a chicken wrap with fries and my friend ordered the tomato soup and a salad. All of the food was great. It was a little pricy for what we got and for that reason, I wouldn't rush back. read more

The food was good and service just ok. The space is also very noisy. Overall, the experience was about 4 stars.

Over priced for poor service and terrible waiting times. 10.00 for a pint is robbery. This place feeds on Northsiders who don't mind what they spend going out. read more

Fish and chips was very good but our server was snarky. I guess he was having a bad day. It wasnt busy when we were there so we did not understand the poor service. read more

Great service! Decoration and ambience is great. Food is consistently really great, I love the fish and chips (even as a Brit!), their French onion soup is amazing, Buddha bowl is nice and their wings are awesome. We tried brunch for the first time last week and absolutely loved the breakfast tacos and avocado toast. Our daughter had the French toast which had a yummy vanilla sauce. Highly recommend!! read more

The staff were amazing, And the food was breathtaking!! We had the best waiter ever and the service was overall amazing. If I could rate them more than 5 stars, I would! read more

Three of us ate at an outside table on a nice Monday evening. First rate service. Pleasant ambience outside on the side street and lovely indoors as well. I had the Shepherd's Pie, which was good but not great, and the Mac and Cheese, which was first-rate (yes, a ridiculous carb overload). Both of the others had Fish and Chips, which they liked. Great bar menu as well. I had an excellent blonde ale. read more

Why is there raw diced tomatoes in a mac and cheese? Thought I'd give it a try anyways, flavorless. Coleslaw again flavorless, grilled cheese was a grease filled disappointment. The French onion, not bad, little salty but not bad. read more

Celiac's beware. After an enjoyable dinner one night I decided to try their online delivery that is on Lady Gregory's website. While ordering it kept giving an error that the delivery time had changed and I had to start the order over. Well unbeknownst to me it didn't take me back to the same menu which was the menu with the gluten-free items. When my order processed I no longer had chosen gluten free items. And they offer many of the same items on both menus. I had no idea until I was half way through my meal and my lips were getting numb and tingly and I was developing sores on my tongue. I immediately stopped eating and contacted the restaurant. No one answered the phone so I sent an email asking for verification that what I received was gluten free. I continued to try and figure it out on my end too but wasn't able to access the online menu until the next day when they were offering delivery again and was able to piece together what happened and confirmed what my body already told me, I didn't get gluten free food. The operations manager David Balzer emailed and called. I can't take calls during work. So I emailed back. Explained that I figured out what happened and he confirmed I was correct I didn't receive gluten free food. And proceeded to pass the buck that I should notify DoorDash of issue with their app. I explained I didn't order through DoorDash. Had I this wouldn't have happened because their lay out is different and very clear, it doesn't time out. I wish I had known or realized it was on DoorDash because again I wouldn't have gotten poisoned AND because I have dashpass I wouldn't have been charged a delivery fee! But I digress. So I proceeded explaining because it is on their website, issue with their online ordering portal and it isn't easily deciphered when it times out and takes you back to the menu page. So I requested a refund. I paid $50 to be poisoned and throw out half the meal. When I get glutened I have symptoms for weeks ranging from GI issues, pain, migraines, eye pain, severe joint pain, and debilitating exhaustion to name a few. He doesn't respond to my email but calls next day. I respond to the email saying I received the message. I cannot take calls at work and that we can take care of this via email. No response. I follow up. AGAIN he calls. Mind you it's middle of the day so anyone with comkin sense knows the person is at work. Again I respond by saying I can't take calls at work. I am on the phone all day and the last thing I want to do when I'm done is make more calls. We can resolve this via email. This is ny preferred form of communication. It's ignored. I email again saying because you have not responded should I assume you are refusing to refund me? His response is that he has made a couple of calls to me and that he is more than happy to discuss this over the phone. Refusing to accommodate my preferred form of communication only further inconvenienced me. I said I have already told you we can resolve this via email. I will not be calling you. The level of unprofessionalism is astounding. I requested not to be called and he continued to call and refused to do anything about the fact they made me sick. I missed work today because I am still sick and it's been 8 days and I'm still suffering. Migraines, eye pain, sensitivity to light, nausea and debilitating exhaustion. And this "manager" thinks it's a good idea to further add to my load by having to call him! WHY!!!?? Do your job and answer the email like a professional and take responsibility for your online portal that is mobile friendly but not mobile optimized and has issues. No need to further frustrate and inconvenience a customer by calling them when they SPECIFICALLY asked you not to! Especially during work hours and when she is sick! This clearly is a bs power move to try and intimidate me because I am a woman. There is no excuse for this behavior. read more

Amazing food plus amazing service. My girlfriend and I went in on January 2nd which turned out to be a holiday. We didn't expect great service because the place was packed. We accidentally sat at a table the was supposed to be reserved. Instead of kicking us out the waiter let us get drinks. The general manager noticed that my credit card was out to immediately pay so he brought our drinks immediately. The food was beyond amazing. The service was excellent. Adorable decorations during the holidays! Ask for Shane or Dave! They are so cute and friendly! read more

Love the food and vibe here and the staff is always incredibly kind and accommodating. Their desserts are also to die for! The mixed berry cobbler was out of this world read more

Casual Friday lunch for 3. Pleasant waiter. One mediocre lunch entree came out and the other 2 didn't come out for 15 minutes. Place was half empty, told waiter original order was cold and dry, took it away and threw it loudly into a bin. Did a refire, took another 10 minutes. Nobody refills water or asks about another drink. Don't bother, many much better places with less attitude. read more
