    Had Valentine's dinner here with friends and the ambiance was very friendly and open. One of the servers was really helpful when we mentioned the lights were flickering and a bit distracting during our time there -- appreciated that he took it seriously. Food was great with solid portion sizes. Tried the chicken sandwich with buffalo sauce and it had the perfect level of heat. The chicken tenders and margherita pizza were also good. Decent beer selection and cocktails too. Solid spot for big groups, and I can definitely see this place being a fun, lively stop on game days.

    Service was not good we were barely served while those around us were treated with much friendlier service. Our food was served hot but without much flavor. The burger was barely edible it was the worse dish we tried it was dry and lacked any flavor. . I really like the spinach dip and my nachos were good but lacked flavor, my friend went with chicken strips which she said were just OK. The place seemed like it caters more to the locals, so nope I will not be back.

    It was dead on a Friday night so I'm a bit worried they won't last long, but hoping football season helps. Service was very attentive and responsive. We had pub basics and they were okay, but I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here again. It was a little off putting to see staff or maybe friends of staff playing video games on the giant screen in the back larger area. I realize no one was seated there, but we passed through to use the restrooms (which were dirty) and felt like we were interrupting. It didn't feel super welcoming, but I'd call it fine. Given multiple places in the neighborhood with pub style grub, we probably wouldn't make our way back unless it was at the request of friends or for an event. I wish them luck as it would be nice for more things to survive in the area.

    This was our first time visiting this location for their costume Halloween party and everyone was friendly. That atmosphere was chill. We had a 9-10 out of 10 great time.

    Is the Staley dog friendly?

    I don't believe you can bring them inside as Chicago laws prohibit them where food is served.

    Some friends suggested we check this spot out on a nice Saturday night as they live nearby and we…read morewere pretty hungry from watching some March Madness games. Came by and it was almost a full house but we were lucky enough to catch 3 seats at the bar. Guy behind the bar was cool as hell and took good care of us the whole time we were there. TVs were all in the right places to watch more games which was awesome! We shared a couple orders of BBQ and garlic parmesean wings as well as a large tin crust pepperoni and sausage pizza. The pizza and garlic parm wings were really good, but those BBQ wings were definitely the star of the show for me. Im like whats in that sauce? crack?? Damn!!! Washed it all down with some very good mezcal margaritas. Lively place where you can bring friends, dates or roll solo. I plan to visit this joint more!

    Would recommend (general). Came by with a buddy on a Friday night after catching a jazz performance…read moreat Reggies. Is right around the corner so we stopped by. Wasn't too busy as there wasn't a prominent sports event going on at the moment but still had adequate staff and patrons. Our bartender was cool, no complaints about the service whatsoever. They did not have physical menus, had QR codes. I like how they put the cook time for their pizzas, definitely a good heads up as I was hungry NOW and ain't have time to wait so I didn't order. Their menu is pretty extensive, lots of options. I ordered the Rum Punch (7.9/10), which was not bad at all, just which the bartender mixed it a little more but other than that not a bad cocktail. For the entrees, we order the Italian Beef Combo with Fries + additional Giardiniera peppers, Onions, Marinara sauce and also the Catfish Dinner. For the Italian Beef Combo, I can give it an adequate 8.0/10 rating. The Italian Sausage was charred well, Beef was cooked to good consistency, would just wish they used a different bread as it did have an after taste from being toasted I assume. Fries were pretty good though. Overall, this place was not bad at all. They had a bunch of games going so we were able to chill at the bar, enjoy a bite, and have a chill ending to our night. Pricing isn't the worst I have seen, especially in the city of Chicago, but I would look at menu before hand online. Just heads up, if wanting to split, they can split check but not by item (apparently they have to get manager to do so). Also shout out to the one worker, checked to make sure our car wasn't outside so it ain't get towed (wasn't our car btw). I like when service goes above and beyond like that to look out for the people they have. I would come back if I wanted to catch a game or event with some people.
