I have been waiting for far too long on a call ahead. When I call ahead to a restaurant I expect to be sat in a reasonable amount of time. I have been waiting almost an hour on a call ahead order. Waiting an hour is simply unacceptable! read more

We love old Chicago's BUT This one was so busy on a Friday night we had to sit out on the patio. Didn't mind that part of it but the waitress never acknowledged we were there. The table next to us was full of college boys and she must have waited on them for five times in a 15 minute period. I think one was her boyfriend? I couldn't tell you about the food we just left. read more

If you have ever been to an Old Chicago then this place is just about the same as all the others. If not the best thing about this place is they always have great beer on tap. The bartenders and always friendly and never have to wait long for a beer even when they are busy. Foods ok. It's bar food so there isn't anything special about it. read more

it's fine for the price. really tasty food and nice servers. one of my favorite restaurants. read more

Old Chicago Pizza + Taproom - Pizza Near Me - Manhattan, Kansas

See all

Quality of food has crashed in the past few months. Wait staff is apologetic and not at all surprised. When the GM is there, they will fix it and she will come speak to you personally, when she isn't there the management does nothing. Corporate needs to send in some help or this location will crash like the last one. People here will pay for quality and you will thrive...fix it. read more

Awesome place! The atmosphere is very hip and comfortable and the service is excellent. We never went without drinks, napkins, or anything else. We ordered two large pizzas and they were the BEST we've had in this area by far. The deep dish is killer and so is the thin (we had one of each.) We also had the "Build Your Own" Mac and Cheese...unbelievable! It was incredibly tasty and came out just as I had ordered it! They have a decent sized menu that allows you to pick and choose while customizing almost everything. I recommend this place to everyone. read more

We generally go to Old Chicago on Sunday nights when nearly everything else in town is closing early. I wish they had a more expanded menu because just pub food can get old after a while, and I do really miss the Cajun chicken sandwich they recently took off the menu, but the food they DO have is really good. I'm partial to their burgers and fries, and also recommend their salads, which are terrific for a franchise. My husband gets the pizzas, often the pub pizzas on their late-night menu, and we both get wings. Definitely try some of the $4 glasses of wine on their after 10PM menu, it's a great price. The seating is comfortable, even when it's crowded during game nights. Staff has always been great. read more

This is the nicest Old Chicago i have been too. The bar is not in a secluded place like other locations. I thought this would make the whole place loud, but it did not. We ordered regular pizza and gluten free crust pizza. Both were very good. Beer selection is good as always. read more

Tried to go here tonight but was told it would be a 2 hour wait for 2 people. Tables looked open so I'm guessing tonight was just poorly staffed. Better luck next time old Chicago. read more

The menu is excellent!!!! The service has A LOT TO Be desired!!!! Was just there.. The waitress we had was named Janette ( I only know her name because I overheard her inducing her self to the people sitting next to us)she acted like she couldn't hardly give us the time a day. No description of the food we ordered ... couldn't hardly answer any questions... we asked about any specials ... she acted annoyed and told us not unless we are on line....then a younger crowd sat next to us ... then she acted excited and then she introduced herself and asked for their names and repeated her name twice to them and told them if there's anything I could do for you just ask for me Janette if we would've got just simply at eighth of her excitement for us sitting there we would've been happy but we got absolutely a blank face... read more

Very popular place it was hard to get a seat if you do not get there early. Food was great drinks also were good. All the staff except one female bartender was very friendly. I can see why they were so busy. read more

As bad an experience as I've had in a while. Waited 25 minutes while several tables either sat empty or were underoccupied. I chalk that up to an inexperienced greeter/seater. Food took forever. After waiting more than 30 minutes, our waitress returned only to tell us they kitchen cooked the wrong thing. She then handed me my daughter's order, which was wrong, as well. She offered to refill our water glasses only once, as she picked up our check to process our payment. She never brought the water. Won't be back. read more

A laid back place to hang out great service, good tasting food and friendly environment. Although I had one hiccup with a waitress with purple hair being very rude and annoyed with me during happy hour . I tried to order beer and ask her questions and she was short and annoyed with me asking about the different beers on the menu. I would avoid this waitress at all cost to serve you. I really enjoy the pizza, buffalo wings and beer here, they have a wide selection of beer on the menu.I enjoy sitting at the bar , bc the bartenders are always ready to answer your questions, they know the beer selection and seem friendly, professional and courteous. Overall this place has awesome pizza , buffalo wings and great beer selection. read more

We always enjoy going to OC. The food, atmosphere, and service are consistently good. Great patio space!

This place seems to be at an ok location. Food was pretty good for Manhattan, drinks weren't made very well. Stick to beer if you come here. Service was absolutely horrible. This being my first time being here it took them 15 minutes to ask if I'd like a drink sitting at the bar, with 2 bartenders and the place bent slow. They didn't ask if I needed anything when I ordered my food 30 minutes later because they didn't care to ask. I had to stop them for everything I needed. No silver wear or napkins given to me. Food came out incorrectly. The 2 female bartenders were very short with me and made things uncomfortable. I always tip very well because I've been in there shows. Obviously they didn't care to Serve me today. I tipped them more then they deserved. I will never come back here. read more

We all have bad days. I get that. However, working in customer service, with customers, especially if you're banking for tips, the one place you don't want to show your bad attitude at is your work place. It started off as a simple work related lunch stop. We called ahead of time to see if we could place the order and reserve a table for 10. We were immediately hit with attitudes. It's simple to say, "we don't do reservations here," but was instead told that there's no way to know how busy they'd be at the requested time and that they would take a preorder but not the tables. So one of us- myself- shows up early. Turns out, nicely, that they did have a table for us. Even an estimated time the food would be out. This would have turned our experience around if it weren't for the waitress. Rude, inattentive. She didn't bother to fill up our waters, or ask if we wanted salad refills on bottomless salad. She was slow and unfriendly. Literally did not smile a single time. She seemed overwhelmed. I will tell you now that OC was NOT busy. We were one of 5 tables. She reached between us, over us, bumped us, and didn't listen. She rolled her eyes and seemed flustered. My calzone was wrong, made with the things I asked to be left out. When it came time to pay she took our cards and then began to help people seated at the bar, took their orders and left us hanging. When she brought the cards back, she ignored where we told her cards would go. I hope her attitude isn't like this and it was just a bad day. But the entire atmosphere was incredibly un-welcoming. read more

We were very disappointed with our dining experience this evening. We have usually enjoyed the food in the past , so we were looking forward to our meal tonight . Not many customers and several servers. No one approached our table and after 10 minutes we left read more

Good food. Excellent waitress. But rude front desk. Rudest I've encountered for a while.

The food was great! We got the "sampler" - trio appetizer.. delicious!! Lots of different beers.. pizza was great! Will definitely go back!

Pizza was delicious. We ordered a large Chicago thick Italian Grinder. The traditional bone in wings were crispy and well cooked but the flavor was lacking on the screaming mango. Great beer selection. The most variety I've seen in town. I can see the service issues other reviewers mentioned, but it was packed on a Tuesday. read more

I love love this restaurant. My family and I have never had a bad experience with food or service. It was at this restaurant I was introduced to an Angry Moon- 1/2 angry orchard 1/2 blue moon. The waitress suggested it when I was having a moment deciding which beer I wanted. Going during high traffic times means a wait but absolutely worth it. read more

We have eaten there countless times. They were fast, reliable, friendly, consistent, and yummy. It's priced well. The shop itself is unremarkable but not unpleasant in any way. Love them! read more

The classic pizza is delicious! My wife and I have dined at the new location multiple times! They have friendly service, great food, and a great venue! We have had multiple take outs and the pizza is very fresh! Yes, sometimes there is a wait... but no big deal. Keep up the good work! read more

We enjoyed the food a lot in Old Chicago. Jim served us and recommended some dishes for us to choose. The waiting time is a little bit long, but the food is fresh and delicious! read more

We have always had good service and been seated relatively quickly even when they are busy. The restaurant is always clean. I also love that the franchise brought back their deep dish style pizza. read more

One of my favorite "go to" places. Love the Apple/walnut/chicken salad. Exceptional wings as well. Love the atmosphere.

We dine here because of the hot wings(bone in). So crispy and delish. Nachos are good too-huge serving great for 2-3 people. We miss it being in the old location but the new building is very nice. Good salads. My friend is a huge fan of the calzones. Also miss the 'old' crew at the former location. Service was friendlier but then again we were there more often. read more

Love the outside seating, the great mixed drinks, and the service. Only 4 stars because it can get really loud, really quickly, and there are a ton of tvs, which is distracting. Family-friendly, but because of noise and too many televisions, it can be overwhelming. When the weather is warm and I'm with my adult pals, this is my go-to place for the outside atmosphere. read more

This a a review about a review that was just written. I was standing at Old Chicago host stand when Michael W. came in. He and his 2 friends were upset that they couldn't be seated right away. One of his friends cussed at the host. FYI there was a college football in town that ended roughly 3 hrs before they came in. Annouced that they drank there all the time so they should be allowed to move ahead of 5 other groups waiting for a table. About shutting the window to the outside bar. This a warm night in kansas. The bugs will get bad. If Im sitting inside, I dont want bugs flying at me. This reviewer then proceeds to pull the manager out of the kitchen to whine and complain for 10 minutes. I feel I should also mention that he and friends were sitting inside at the bar. The manager was calm and very nice during his complaints. WAY BE GREAT OLD CHICAGO!!!!! read more

Love this place! Great neighborhood Pub for me.... staff & management is one of the best crews I have seen. The beer selection is great with new selections on a regular basis. read more

Always enjoy eating and drinking here. I have never had a bad food experience, but what really made this visit the most enjoyable was our waitress, Cris. She was an absolute delight! She was upbeat, personable, prompt, and offered us a great recommendation on Sam Adam's Cold Snap. She never left us alone for too long and was very sweet to us. She hands down made this the best trip to OC yet. I will most definitely be requesting seating in her area and if she isn't working, I may just have to find somewhere else! Cris, if you ever see this-- you're the real MVP! read more

I have never been disappointed while eating and drinking here. The food is delicious and the service is always great. I never feel neglected and can count on an enjoyable meal. Definitely recommend. read more

This place is usually packed on nights and weekends. The fire pits are fun to hang around with friends. The late night specials and late hours are awesome. Happy hour during the afternoon as well with great deals. Welcoming staff and usually a pretty good ticket time for food. Love coming here. read more

I will say up front that their Artisan Crust is one of the best hand tossed pizza dough's that I've ever had with the right amount of yeasty sweet and chewy goodness that this crust should have. However, I am very disappointed about the farce they perpetrate with the beer program. Yes, they have what appears to be a dynamic beer selection however the actual variety is rife with "Crafty" beers produced and owned by Big Beer. The few true Craft Selections they offer depend on location and availability but I've found at this location the inventory is usually very limited (last visit I ordered three beers before they had my choice in stock on a Saturday Early Evening). As for the rest of the program - they need to train their staff on the beer they carry and how to serve it. Our poor server, in addition to wearing way more perfume than any member of the human race should be allowed to own, was totally ignorant when it came to beer styles or even questions about which beers were the "Managers Choice" listed on the menu. When we asked for Non-Frozen Glassware (No craft beer should ever be served with a frozen glass), she actually said - "... I hate wet glasses also". Obviously there is not even an effort to train or educate that proper beer glass should be room temp and rinsed to ensure no residue or dried soap remains in the glass. We WILL go back as the food is well worth the value but we will do so understanding that we're not going to get good beer service. A little bit of time and effort educating their staff would make such a huge difference in the long run... and this community would welcome it regardless if they realized it or not.

Beer & Brat calzone good but short on brat. Very tough crust/dough that had to be cut with a knife. Closer to 2.5 stars.

Besides being often slow with service, this a great place to share life over some beer and pizza.

This is a great place for pizza and I would have given them 5 stars if they would simply get our order right. The wait staff is very personable, helpful and friendly but since they do not write the order down- they frequently forget a thing or two or bring the wrong item. Today the waitress graciously admitted her error, re-ordered the correct pizza and did not charge us for it. Just would have been nice to eat at the same time as everyone else. It's nice that everyone can order their own style of pizza. It's delicious! Wish our salads had fresher looking lettuce - a bit old. The sweet waitress asked if I wanted nuts and croutons- I said no - but it came on there anyway - oh well. Guess she was just taking a poll read more

Overpriced for average food. One could easily make a better meal at home for much less money. Service is never good. The bar seems to be the only positive part of the restaurant. read more

Some familiar faces, some new. All is good! The tap beer is awesome at the new location. The old Town Center store had tap problems causing the beer to have a "cardboard" off flavor. Hooray, it didn't follow along! The place is somewhat brighter than before. I'll have to get used to it, maybe wait until after sunset. Food is OC good. Fried pickles are my favorite. I will be back often. read more

Haven't been in a while, and likely won't be back. The food itself was fine - good, actually, but the service was another matter. The wait staff was alright; the problem was, we weren't able to stay and enjoy a meal. The issue was a ridiculously LOUD trivia competition. We were not close to the bar area where this was, and could literally not hear ourselves talk right next to one another. The noise level was actually painful to my husband. We complained, and were told that nothing needed to be changed. Left without ordering, and never went back. I have been in actual bars where they had competitions of that sort, and they were not loud AT ALL. No excuse for that! Never darkened their door again. No food is worth that level of stress. read more
