Menu burgers sandwichs
Kristian A.

The place is cool looking with all the Abraham Lincoln around. The service was great very attentive. The cheese nugs were great but the pizza was terrible. Seemed like the pizza was from a frozen supermarket and just put toppings on top of it. The crust was not edible. We ate a quarter of it and brought the rest of it home for the dogs. Don't get the pizza!

Popper dip

Went out to the Lucky Penny with my dad, we've been here before and love the sweet and spicy pizza. We tried the popper dip which was really good as well.

Chicken Sweet Chili Pizza

Great Neighborhood Eatery Staff always NICE FOOD: It's up to your preferences on flair and flavor. Chicken Chili Pizza ( They must be using whatever boneless chicken they serve and cut it into chunks on the pizza.) don't like chunks only in one spot on a slice of pizza, should spread it out. And the chicken seasoned isn't for pizza of my taste. Remind me of California Pizza Kitchen- Chicken Pizza in frozen section. Italian beef could been shaved thinner, and marinated and soaked in the dipping sauce. Dry and tuff. Bread to thick and hard, for dipping to get that famous Midwest Italian Beef Flair. We Chicagoans are picky about food. But overall GREAT.

I came here while in town for a basketball tournament. This establishment had plenty of seating for our large group. Our party tried a variety of fares such as salads, wings, pizza, and grilled cheeses. Everyone was more than satisfied with their selection. The service was on point and the decor in this place is creative. Come check it out.

I love stopping by Lucky Penny to enjoy a beer with friendly faces. Their stuffed mushrooms appetizer and their fungi pizza are very delicious choices at Lucky Penny. Lucky Penny has a wonderful selection of craft beers on tap and in bottles (including some great gluten-free beers). The bartenders are very nice but sometimes not always completely knowledgeable about their beers on tap. I frequently play shuffleboard at Lucky Penny as well. Just give them your ID and they will give you the pieces to the shuffleboard set and when you're done playing just take the pieces back up to the bar to get your ID. Along with shuffleboard, Lucky Penny has a karaoke/photo machine that is fun to use by yourself or with friends. I fun place to stop with friends to enjoy good beer and good food.

broasted chicken

Great bar, great food, great drinks. Really unique place celebrating Abe Lincoln. They have pennies laminated on the bar, tables and walls. A local artist painted pictures of famous people all with Abe's face. Funny stuff. Hailey was our server and a sweetheart. Food is great and reasonably priced. They have a shuffleboard table that is fun to play. Outside seating is nice. Our table had wings, chick tenders, salads and pizzas. All were great!

The ambience of the lucky penny was definitely good. I definitely liked the environment. But food up here was below average. Firstly I was going to order wings/buffalo chicken nachos but I couldn't as their oven was broken, I was ok until then. So then I had to order Chicken Salad Sandwich which was way below my expectations. In between 2 plain white slices of bread they had chicken salad stuffing, definitely not paying for that. My colleague order chicken tenders, how can you go wrong in that. It was super breaded & he was complaining of not having any chicken inside. The only positive on our table was the popper melt was good. Also our server wasn't welcoming. Sad to say this but it is over rated & over hyped. Avoid - Chicken salad sandwich & chicken tenders

Sririacha Brat with side of fries
Greg J.

Returned to the Lucky Penny at lunchtime today, and I was more pleased with everything than my last visit. Was glad to see nice specials on the board, and I chose the Sriracha Bratwurst with grilled onions, swiss cheese and cream cheese. It came on a nice bun, not the store bought buns you sometimes find elsewhere. The server was very helpful, especially with my iced tea drink. On my previous visit the glass was filled with ice, making multiple refills necessary. Today the server explained that the tea was fresh brewed, so made it nicely enough so that it was chilled, but not filled with ice. I've upgraded a star, and will be back. :)

BLT pizza - yuck.

I love that there is a casual and fun restaurant in the neighborhood. I love the fish and chips and the soft pretzel is really good, too.
