    Apple Strudel
    Steven E.

    The forerunner. Best German cuisine in North Illinois. Another family dining night for the eight of us. The portion size is huge so we enjoyed leftovers later. Cost is unimportant, even though it's incredibly reasonable. At Laschet's, they make an excellent Hackepeter. Something I haven't had for years. I'll be back for this alone. If you wish to try phenomenal German dumplings (Spätzle), you need to make the trip. Alongside all the legendary German fare you'll find plenty of American favourites. Pro Tip: If you smile and are nice, they'll bring you substitute sandwich bread for nothing! The Story: our colleague, Bill T., ordered the Frikadellen Sandwich on a sesame seed bun. Even after I begged him not to do this, he did. One bite in, he realized it should be on pumpernickel bread and we called the waitstaff. They carry the standard in German beers and a couple of surprises. A good start would be the Reissdorf Kolsch. Goes down smoothly. The atmosphere is addicting. Once you're in and comfy, you won't want to leave. The staff are overly friendly and most efficient. If you love the German style and cuisine, enjoy the song and the ale, I insist you find your way here! 09/25

    Leberkase
    Helen H.

    There was a short 10 min wait as they cleared a table on a Thursday night. The place was pretty busy and full around 7:30 pm. I've been here a few times where there's no wait and plenty of seats during the weekday too. This place has a cozy vibe and you can tell that they have a lot of regulars that come to watch the game for good beer and food. I ordered the Leberkase sandwich to try something different. I had to get used to it at first because it was just the meat with eggs. I even asked the waitress if I needed to put sauce on it, and she said no. It definitely grew on me the more I had it though. The texture was spam like, but the meat wasn't too salty so it was easy to eat. I enjoyed it, and I would get it again.

    Always a comforting delicious meal here! It's been several years since we've been back but we decided to celebrate my mom's bday tonight and we had a great time! We ordered the potato pancakes, I had the chicken schnitzel with roasted potatoes and red cabbage...yum! Also, I saved room for apple strudel and omg...so scrumptious! They also brought a candle out with my mom's dessert and they gave us a complimentary apple schnapps!

    Good authentic German comfort food in a cozy setting. This is where the locals come. We tried several items and everything was good.

    When you want some authentic German food and beer, this is the place to go. An inconspicuous entrance off Irving Park Road, Laschet's delivers great chicken schnitzel and giant liters of German beer. Service is good and the vibe feels like a lodge. Parking is easy out front or on the side streets.

    Oh my goodness. This place is amazing. Goulash soup was soooo good. Had the sausage sandwich and a beer. My in laws loved it as well. Great food and good service. Definitely recommend.

    06/25/24 - I finally went here today

    06/25/24 - All these years and I have never set foot in Laschet Inn. I use to go to Resi's Bierstube which is located about 2 blocks east on the north side of Irving Park. My old roommate & I use to go up & have some libations Today I had lunch w/my buddy & had 2 goals in mind. One was to have hackepeter aka steak tartar & the other was to have weinerschnitzal which I absolutely love. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED. In all the years I have lived in Chicago I finally came here for lunch. Laschet Inn is a cool German pub w/a cool vibe & great food Between the 2 of us we devoured 4 dishes. 1) Hackepeter- steak tartar w/capers & onions on cocktail bread. I thought this was good but seemed a little under seasoned. 2) Weinerschnitzal (excellent schnitzel), German Potato Salad (very good), & cole slaw 3) Chcken wings - Were outstanding, super crispy & came w/2 dipping sauces. One was a bleu cheese which I thought was outstanding. I didn't try the other dipping sauce. 4) Chicken schnitzel Believe it or not we didn't even have a beer as my friend doesn't drink (NEXT TIME)

    Beef rolade, spaetzle and red cabbage

    What better way to celebrate the day after Christmas than at an old-fashioned, traditional German pub and restaurant. Truly charming place, delicious traditional German food and great beer selections served in glass boots. So authentic, lively and fun.

    Hackepeter
    Claudia Z.

    For years, I used to meet up with friends at Laschet's Inn on Friday afternoons for a bier, some food & to practice my German. I no longer live in Chicago & I don't make it to the Irving Park/Damen area as much. I was visiting my guncle who lives at 3950 LSD & had an hour to kill for lunch between hanging out with him & my next appointment. I decided to take the #80 down the street to my old stomping ground! It was a gorgeous day so I asked for a Stiegl & full order of hackepeter to enjoy on the front patio. SOOOO GOOD! There is just something so perfect about the brown bread, minced meat, raw white onions & capers. It totally brings me back to my childhood visits in Germany. Laschet's version is everything! Pro tip: the extra plate they give you is for you to dump out the onions/capers. Pick up the bread, turn it over, press the meat into the onions then the capers & enjoy! While I did not indulge in other options, the food is outstanding at Laschet's & the beer selection is noteworthy. If you are in the area, I highly recommend checking Laschet's out for a delicious meal. Prost!

    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. The chips were crispy and paired perfectly with the fish splashed with the malt vinegar. The green peas were good, but my favorite was the Stovies. If you've never had proper Stovies, this is your chance to try them. Potatoes and onions with bits of roast kind of like mashed potatoes or a very thick stew. 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
