Love the mashed and the way they cook up their sauerkraut! We often get weinerschnitzel, and have tried a variety of toppings. My favorite is "Hunter Schnitzel." The smell, the warmth, the decor', and everyone seems to be enjoying themselves! Our server was fantastic!! And the prices are really quite reasonable! Desserts are yummy too!

Old Town Pour House surprised me with how vegetarian-friendly it was for a sports bar…read more We tried the pretzel bites, Kung Pao cauliflower, Southern Mac & Cheese, a flatbread, and finished with the skillet cookie and ice cream. The Southern Mac & Cheese was probably the standout for me -- creamy, with a nice kick and crispy onions on top. Portions across the board were very generous, so it's definitely worth keeping that in mind before ordering too much. We had a really nice evening here. There's plenty of space, TVs everywhere, and the whole place has that lively sports-bar energy without feeling cramped. We were there while the IU-Northwestern game was on, so it was especially fun if you enjoy watching a game while eating with friends. The overall experience felt relaxed and easy, which makes it a good option for meeting up with a group. Between the dedicated vegetarian section, big portions, lively atmosphere, and game-day setup, it's much better for vegetarians than I expected from a traditional sports bar. And definitely save room for the skillet cookie.

It was kind of chilly but we were next to a fireplace and a little later they turned on the burner stands. Our server stopped by a few times but we let him know we are waiting for a few others. When all of us were there, he took drink orders as we looked over the menu. We eventually ordered our food and the server was great with answering our questions. I ordered a combo meal with grilled wings and ribs. I requested just flats for the wings and he accommodated. I got French Fries and mashed potatoes. The wings were good and I dipped it in the habanero sauce. The ribs were tangy and had some meat on the bones. The meal only came with 4 wings and 4 ribs but it was plenty and I was full at the end. Maybe it was double the carbs. I enjoyed the food and loved catching up with the guys.

It was pretty consistent with customers coming in to dine in and pick up orders throughout our time there. There's 2 sections - bar area with high tops and an area with standard height tables as well. I noticed they also have outdoor seating when the weather permits. Service was quick and the staff members were friendly. After ordering everything was ready to be picked up at the counter window within 10 minutes. I tried the 302 burger and asked it to be cooked super well done. It was very good and the schlick sauce really brings everything together. The tater tots are pretty average. Nothing special, I'd still get them again though. I also tried an Oreo shake which was pretty good too. It was thiccccck and creamy. Pricing is reasonable, I paid $21 with tip for my shake, cheeseburger and side of tots.

For $10 this is a great deal. The burger was juicy and delicious. The sauce on the burger goes very well with it and the bun is buttery, very good. The fries? Meh, they were pretty bland and stale.
