    Map of DesPlaines, Illinois - home of the first McDonalds
    Candace C.

    Average for a McDonalds. Limited seating - although I would guess most of their customers are from people passing through on Highway 20. We grabbed lunch on a Friday just after 1:00. Food was delivered quickly. Fountain drink area was clean but not tidy (straws and napkins in disarray) Ketchup dispenser was working. They have one order kiosK and two registers for taking orders. Employees who delivered our order to the table was wearing her mask on her chin - not covering her mouth and nose. Floor was sticky even though a mop bucket with water in it was sitting right outside the order taking area. In the half hour we were inside - no employees came out to clean off or sanitize tables - even though multiple diners had been there. And - no bearing on your dining experience - but they have a map of Des Plaines on the wall - with no "star" indicating the location of the first McDonalds. If you don't know your fast food history - you would be wondering why in the world that map is there.

    Dont fries come with a meal?

    Slowest McDonald's ever!! Out of all the things, including change. Ridiculous wait in drive up.

    Our second trip to Brew & Chew - much better than the first. The burgers are delicious. Our first…read moretime we both had burgers (my pictures). My memory is that everything else was a la carte - and the side dishes were overpriced. Stopped by again in December of 2025 - delightful experience! Rick had a burger with LTOP (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle) and I greatly enjoyed the Three Little Pigs - so much deliciousness wrapped up in one sandwich! Service was great. They have lots of seating - but no televisions for watching sports. Will definitely return.

    We went with a couple that highly recommended this place for its outstanding burgers. This was…read moreduring the week and we arrived around 12:30. The place had a few tables filled when we arrived. We placed our order and waited. A few more tables filled. A few tables left. We waited. And waited. And waited. We watched as the tables nearby got served - even though they came after us. A query to the waitress and she responded - yours are next. Then we get 4 of our 6 orders. And waited for the other two. The. One of the orders was not cooked fully, so she then waited. Did I mention it took an HOUR from order to first delivery, and then longer for the two chicken sandwiches, then longer for the re-fire on the under cooked burger. The burger I had was good but in no way worth any type of wait. And the place wasn't even packed!! Good burgers and onion rings. EXTREMELY SLOW SERVICE. And really not attentive for a small town restaurant. I would pass on this place. It's good but not worth a trip out of the way, nor worth waiting.

I found out from our server that many of their items are made in house, which is great to hear in a restaurant landscape where everything is frozen and reheated! It might have a silly name and the decor might be "rundown chic", but the food and service is spectacular.

    Checked out this funny and quirky restaurant in Galena. Durty Gurt's is a long time local favorite…read morewith drinks and food that's better than it looks. It may be kind of dumpy inside but the place is also full of crazy personality. A lot of the basics along with a few fancier items. The prices are pretty okay for the portions and quality. Basically if you're a group it will probably be waiting for a table so go early. It's one of the popular places to go around here. The last time coming here we got seats at the bar and there wasn't any waiting. Has a lot of cool memorabilia to look at. There's a bunch of funny signs on the walls. It's about $7 for a basic cocktail. The Fuzzy Navel is one of the classics you can get. It's about $13 for a burger and fries. They have a veggie burger that can substitute. We each got one of these. I got it with the toppings of the Basic Burger. These come with the usual toppings like lettuce, mayonnaise which I left off, onions, pickles, and tomatoes. She got it with the toppings of the Olive Burger. These come with cheddar, lettuce, mayonnaise, olives, onions, Swiss, and tomatoes. For sure it gets busy. It's located on Main at Franklin. They're closed Wednesdays.
