The hostess and server were both friendly. The food however took some time to get the table, even though there were few people in the restaurant. I ordered steamed broccoli for my toddler and they served us what seemed like broccoli in a shallow dish with water and was microwaved, barely cooked all the way through. Then there was my calzone, I order one with chicken, black olives and pineapple. Half of the calzone consisted of dough, most of it raw still. Then the chicken was charred and burnt in areas, leaving a very unsatisfying burnt taste in your mouth and the pineapple was pale and soft. Old Chicago has gone downhill; I gave this location a chance and I will NEVER go back. To ANY Old Chicago. Gross food, and the lack of cleanliness in the dining room was also unappetizing. read more

Stopped in for lunch with my family. There is plenty of parking. We waited in line to be seated. It felt short staffed. We were asked "booth or table." We opted for table. Of the several available we were given one that upon, my son getting out to go to the restroom after ordering, we found that seat was ripped and the seat itself no longer attached to the base so it jumped when someone moved. By then, with how many folks had come in, there wasn't an option to move. Three of us got their three-fer special that was salad, entree and dessert. My son got a burger and tots. I chose to get the garden salad with ranch, a calzone with pepperoni and jalapeno and the Cookizza slices, which was half a regular cookie. The salad was fresh and the ranch was tasty. I liked my calzone and took half home for lunch the next day. For me, the Cookizza half a cookie was plenty. My daughter and husband both upgraded to the whole cookie. Overall an ok experience. read more

It came out Hot and my Salad was fresh and crunchy good!! Really enjoyed watching the Broncos and visiting with the local patrons. A fun, & lively time! read more

Mia was very helpful, patient & helped us have a great time celebrating my Moms birthday!!

Ordered the French dip sandwich. The beef was so salty it was nearly inedible. The sandwich was barely warm. The au jus was gravy like, not actually jus. The sandwich arrived 6 minutes after my appetizer which was hot and delicious. The server was friendly and attentive. Overall, I suggest ordering pizza, this is not the place for anything else. read more

BBQ pizza was ok. Burnt crust, I thought the sauce was too sweet. First pazookie ( brownie, and cookie.) was so hard it could've been a hockey puck! After we were finally able to flag the waitress down, the waitress was able to get it replaced and the replacement was absolutely delicious and delightful. The server, Juliana, was overall very inattentive and did the very minimum. Acted put out to do her job. Ambience was great. We enjoyed the music. My simple 3-fer ended up costing much more than expected due to selecting a pazookie from the lists of options. I had no idea the upcharge would be that much. read more

I usually have no problem with this location, but I did have to throw my wings back in the oven because they were soggy, and my cookie was burnt read more

Went Old Chicago memorial Day set in a booth close to the patio door by the back bar in the back booth there was a table of three young kids I believed belonged to somebody working they had full access of the limes the lemons the orange slices in the back bar full access to the soda fountain back there the gun I didn't think it was very appropriate that the kids were putting their hands in the lemons limes and oranges bare hands do better they were handling and going and using their same cup to refill soda with the soda gun it's just not a place for kids It look like somebody was totally short of a babysitter was not happy with the food especially the nachos I don't know what kind of nachos they were but I ain't never seen anything like it It looked like they put white queso on it I don't know what it was but for $15 No absolutely not Do better read more

Horrible experience at the bar. We were ignored for 15 minutes trying to get a drink. Bartenders did not care. We left and went to Buffalo Wild Wings where we received a beer within 3 minutes. read more

I ordered my food to be ready at noon. I stood at the hostess desk for 15 minutes waiting on someone to help me. All the while the bartender and waitresses would just glance over at me but never came to help. In came two other couples waiting to be seated. We all waited 5 more minutes. One lady went to talk to the bartender who told her there was no hostess. The lady told him I was waiting on my food and that they would like a table. Even though I was first in line and had been waiting the longest he proceeded to seat both couples before helping me. When I returned to my office I opened the container and found my food looking like it had been sitting under a heating lamp for way to long. Don't go there if you are in a hurry because they could care less read more

Love the spaghetti pizza with marinara it's delicious! Services has always been good, Staff is very kind & accommodating. There is a bar inside but it doesn't feel like a bar rather a restaurant. Good calzones & appetizers. Been there a few times and every time service is good even when they're busy! read more

Side Salad? Yes please! Whenever we visit Old Chicago, we always order the side salad

Stopped in today for a lunch date with a beautiful woman. It was a romantic situation and very important to me. Our server realized we were a female same sex couple and treated us extremely well. She was friendly, outgoing and our glasses were never dry. I wish I had kept the receipt so I'd be able to post her name as she was really quite exceptional. Initially ordered a garden burger but, boooooo hisss, they discontinued them. I hope they change their minds as a meatless burger patty is really important to many of us. Instead, I ordered a veggie hand tossed pizza and and was superb. Well cooked, fresh veggies and excellent crust. Even my side salad with ranch solid and not just a plate of arugula which I really can't stand. The restaurant was clean and tidy and had plenty of private parking. I'm not in Brighton very often but this place is a no brainer when I am. read more

I quit going to the old Chicago in Brighton co because the food isn't good anymore and a beer is 9 dollars so I'll go somewhere else where I enjoy the food. It seems like the bartenders can be crabby too. It has a nice patio. read more

Wow. It's New Years Eve and we blew a bunch of money here. I've never been. Wanted to try it. HUGE mistake. HUGE. So, so bad. We ordered a pizza and boneless wings.

Only come to this restaurant if you have a couple hours to kill! Server takes order right away but kitchen can't get anything out to table in a timely manner. Obviously they are paying so little to their cooks, no one will work here! read more

I was so excited when my husband said we were going out for dinner that I weed whacked the yard, got a bath, ate too many cookies and took a nap. I woke up ready to go! Though a little bit full from eating too many cookies - COVID problems. I really liked how they blocked off about 15 parking spots, put a table on each one and offset them front to back - because they have a separate parking lot in the middle of nowhere they can do that! The food was pretty good, my hubs pizza was better than my artichoke dip. I don't know what was going on- usually I'm a huge fan of all things artichoke. But they did have a very nice assortment of cucumbers, carrots, celery, chips, and toasted garlic bread that went with the dip- so I was still pleased with my "meal." I did get a margarita that came on a biodegradable cup, with salt on the edge. I liked the margarita-nothing fancy. I think that sums up our whole experience- we liked our food. Nothing fancy. read more

We have tried Old Chicago a few more times since my last review and I would have to say I would really need to be hungry with no other close place to go to give it another try. The pizza is ok for overpriced pizza and their dry rub wings used to be my favorite. This last time topped it off though. The wings came out and looked uncooked or maybe smoked. We asked the manager and he stated they were not smoked and he would credit our ticket. We told him no problem, could he just put them in the microwave for a few. He stated let's see what we can do for you and took the wings. He came back and stated he had wiped the sauce off and put them back in the fryer. Ewe, who does that. Needless to say they were still not cooked. See pictures below. Ambiance was to be as expected. You may want to look elsewhere for a night out. read more

I just moved to the area and wanted to give old Chicago a try. It turned out to be one of the worst pizzas I've ever had. The sun dried tomatoes were so burnt it tasted like what I would expect the things that fall to the bottom of the grill would taste like. Charcoal and dusty. Cheese was missing on over half of the slices. I called to give them the chance to refund my order before leaving an honest review and picture. They put me on hold to talk to a manger but I hung up after waiting for 10 minutes. I ate one slice and had to throw the rest away as it was not edible and just went to bed hungry. Woke up the next morning with bathroom problems. Overall this was a bad experience because of poor quality pizza, customer service and way overpriced for $45 for a large pizza and bites. I will not be returning. read more

Old Chicago Pizza + Taproom - Charcoal sun dried tomatoes with most slices missing cheese - Sports Bars Near Me - Brighton, Colorado

This restaurant is right in a main shopping area, but still has the neighborhood tavern feel. In fact, while eating here, we sat next to a table of regulars. You could tell by the fact that the waitresses/bartenders all knew them, gave them hugs, etc. If that didn't give it away, the fact that they had the pewter mugs of Beer Tour connoisseurs helped. The beer was plentiful, with almost anyone being able to find something to their taste. The hand-tossed crust on my Meat Lover's pizza was great and the food was pretty satisfying. I never have a bad experience at any Old Chicago's and this is true here as well. I don't live near, so coming back is going to be challenging, but if circumstances allow it, I'll try. read more

The only reason I gave one star is because I had to Carlos was extremely rude wouldn't even give me his last name very bad very bad very bad that's all I can say I would not waste your time or effort or money on this place that has extremely poor service read more

Food wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either. Kinda had that make-it-yourself flavor and consistency you do in a pinch...except you'd make it taste better. Been about 10 years since I was here last and was hoping quality of food and service improved. How disappointing. read more

Not good. Jalapeño pretzels had zero jalapeños. Pizza was cold and over cooked. Salad was soggy. Slow night and food took forever to come out. Waitress was really sweet but you could tell they were short staffed and she was overwhelmed. Won't be back. $40 down the drain. read more

To wish I could have better things to say. Tonight I waited 15 min at my table before asking the hostess if I had a server. It took another ten minutes for her to come around. Fast forward it took 45 minutes to get appetizers. Another 30 minutes for food. The waitress never apologized for never checking on us. There's a Chili's new at by. Take your money there instead. read more

Left early because the food was taking forever. Waited for an hour and a half. Wish the server wouldn't keep saying it was close. Plus they played the star wars theme song for half our wait. read more

Late night dining for us. It was seat yourself. Service was a little slow, but it looked like they were short handed. Food was still very good. read more

Staff ok. Pizza ok Salad extremely disappointing! Shallow plate that was barely filled, could see the bottom. Think the side salad was bigger. The table next to us had the same salad and hers was a little more than what we had. Really is lettuce that expensive to fill up a portion? $13 for smaller portions than a side salad.? Our waitress just said yes, that's what you ordered. We were just thinking we should go here more often...now? read more

So we enjoy Old Chicago and our son loves the twisted Chicken. What a difference timing makes at this location in Brighton CO. We were there at 11am on a Saturday and the following Saturday at 2pm. The first Saturday the service and food were as expected. The second Saturday was not only terrible on the service side but the Twisted Chicken was sub par to say the very least. When I asked the server about the twisted Chicken for $10.99 which was 2.5 pieces of chicken and usually it's 5 to 6 pieces his response was "I don't know I just run the food". I asked for the manager - twice and she quickly apologized and agreed that the Chicken was less than the normal amount. She was very accommodating and said the server should not have responded in that fashion. In all honestly - this location was extremely short staffed and they were all a little overwhelmed. Our son "said mom why do you care this is how everything is today. People don't care all they want to do is collect a pay check". He said "tip based on the service" and my husband said minus the "COVID" up-charge from the tip. The prices are through the roof and most restaurants have not only increased their prices but also have the "new" service fees claiming it's because they have to pass the increases on to the patrons. It's old .... In the end we enjoyed our food but paid 2 times what we should have paid. read more

Getting seated is typically a joke ,we just showed up with a party of 6 the place not busy at all and they tell us it would be 10 minutes because the server needed to catch up then they sat the party of 4 behind us .We are regulars and will take our money to BWW ,this has been an ongoing issue here .it is a shame because we love the food . read more

To go order , no fork no dressing for the $15 salad ! Long wait time and pretty high prices. Unfortunately without dressing and a fork I didn't eat my salad. But my girl said the calzone was ok. read more

Do not go here if you are hungry. 2 to go orders in 2 months, mid week dinners. Both times waited over an hour to get the wrong order and ended up going to a second restaurant to get my dinner because the orders were so badly messed up. They give me the wrong salad, and even then it's missing the grilled chcicked that's supposed to be on both salads. I eat out most nights traveling for work. This is the slowest and worst organized place I've been to in a year in 4 states. Usually get dinner here once a month when I want something unique to Old C's. The menu is great. At this location Staff needs training. Managers need training. Kitchen is full of people but takes an hour to get a salad. And like most places after Covid it's understaffed. People wait out side for 30 minutes while there are unstaffed sections with empty clean tables and no servers. They could at least have people wait at the bar with drinks. Take out orders usually get messed up. And takes over an hour to get food. Actually waited 90 minutes tonight to get the wrong order on a Wednesday night. To get appetizers to go. Only go here if you have plenty of time. Hope they get more organized. Online experience needs improvement. They say 30 minutes for food. Takes 90 minutes. And they don't give Text notifications like most places do. So if you want to get told your food will be ready in 15 minutes like 6 or 7 times and then wait 90 minutes from order to in hand. Go here. And I watch door dash orders go in and out while waiting for the food I ordered 90 minutes ago. Really organized! Why it takes 90 minutes for appetizer and a salad I don't know. I understand why the Old C's in Utah closed. Not going back to this location. Waiting 90 minutes for the wrong order and half of it stale from heat lamps is not worth $50. read more

Can't give 3 stars. Background: I worked in food for 5+ years Wait time on a Sunday lunch was 15-20min, not crazy. We got seated and already had our orders ready because we were hungry. Seated at 1pm, we got our food at 1:45-1:50pm. 4 of us, we ordered a LG pizza, a personal pizza, a cauliflower pizza, and a salad. 45 min for that, which is honestly ridiculous. It wasn't a busy day, and we didn't even get an apology or anything for the food taking so long. At 35min we asked our server how much much longer and she came back and said it would be about 3 min. Well it wasn't 3 minutes lol. The pizza was average, not bad not spectacular. The salad we got was really great; the spinach and chicken one. The reviews are accurate; don't expect to eat right away if you still decide to come here. For a $80 bill, definitely not worth it and we will realistically never come back. read more

Pre ordered for my cousin. And estimated time for pick up was 30 mins after open. 18 minutes after they opened they canceled my online order. Didn't even call me. Had to order again, they said it would be ready on 30 mins. Got coffee and washed my car and arrives after 30 mins and still not ready had to wait another 15 mins in my car before getting my order. Great food but low end experience!!!! read more

We came in and ordered Tuscan pizza with no chicken. Apparently the kitchen made a mistake and put chicken on it. When the mistake was discovered the manager came out and informed us, offered the mistake pizza, and assured us that the corrected pizza was in the oven. The chef then came out with the correct order, apologized and wanting to know if there was anything else they could do for us. The bartender offered a side to hold me over until the pizza was ready knowing how hungry I was. The manger then came back with a gift card to apply to the tab. I could not have been more pleased with the way this tram recovered. They corrected the issue before I even had a chance to be upset. What an amazing team they have. I will definitely be back, and with friends!!! Thank you! read more

We were seated outside because we were traveling with our dog, and waitstaff was very accommodating. The patio was clean and the tables had large umbrellas so our late lunch was pleasant. I had a nice chopped salad, and the rest of my family had wings, chicken strips, and a really large burger. Great food, prompt and polite service, and an excellent choice if you are traveling with a pet. read more
