    New menu. Yes they're back open after renovations!
    Lauren H.

    I know I know I know it's always the regulars who say it's great, but it's true! There's a Christmas party happening right now and it's super busy and loud but the service is still great. Hot food, cold beer, and no long waits. I love a place that still gives water without asking. They treat every customer like they're important. Other bars could take a lesson from Warren's staff. I got my usual fish tacos with perch and Italian beef egg rolls. It's always more than enough I take some home. Thank you Warren's for another great visit!

    Whip It Good
    Bailey P.

    We stopped by on a Monday afternoon and the place was absolutely empty. We accidentally went through the back door and had to double check with the person working to make sure they were open since it was so empty. Eventually one other group of guys came to sit at the bar but it still seemed very slow. We started with the whipped feta appetizer. Honestly, it was a big disappointment. It was basically a melty soup with mediocre pita bread. I was expecting something more whipped or spreadable. For my meal I had the kale salad with added chicken which was 10x better than the appetizer. The salad was giant and filling and fresh and flavorful!

    Crab poppers
    Maggie M.

    Crab poppers had a little kick to it. But didn't taste much of the crab. Underneath are arugula and pineapple which were delicious. Had the short ribs grill cheese and it came with a side of tomato soup for dipping. It was very good and had lots of meat and cheese in every bite. We went with a big group, so beware on the bill they automatically had added gratuity 22% and credit card service charge fee (starting to see credit card service charges at every restaurant).

    Lunch before a visit to the Hokusai exhibit at COD.
    Matthew G.

    We had a scheduled visit to the MAC @ COD and saw that Warren's Ale house was just 5 minutes away. Earlier this year I missed meeting some friends there for some friendship, so it was on my mind. Got there just after noon on a Thursday. Great decision for a casual lunch. Got seated right away, hot outside but comfy cool inside. Had some time reviewing the menus, one for drinks another for food. We ordered up some draft beers and then decided what we were going to eat. I got the Warren burger with bacon and fries. My daughter got the beef egg roll. Both of our meals were prepared perfectly and pretty quickly. Our server was great also, checking on us and attentive. This was a great casual lunch. It fit our time frame for Hokusai at the MAC. If you get a chance to go there, you won't be disappointed.

    Stopped in for a drink and something to eat. Bartenders were very nice food was good.

    Son's kids meal.
    Christy M.

    We began the day at Morton Arboretum. Rather than eat there we opted to try a new place in the greater area. I searched for a bar/grill and Warren's Ale House popped up. I tried a turkey sandwich. Hubby had the shrimp tacos. Friend had the short tribe grilled cheese. Son had the kids cheeseburger. I really liked my sandwich. Hubby's shrimp tacos were excellent. Friend liked his grilled cheese and the beer he ordered. Son's kids cheeseburger looked good and it came with a side of applesauce and a lollipop for dessert. All the adults rated their meals/experience a 4/5. We would all return.

    Avocado Bruschetta
    Anusha D.

    Tried this restaurant recently for dinner. We started off with Egg rolls, Pierogi and Avocado Bruschetta. The food was fresh and delicious. We then had a burger which was great in taste as well. You can never go wrong here. The food quality is always consistent here. The ambiance is great. The server was super attentive. As it's located in the plaza there is plenty of parking.

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.

I was excited to take my son here tonight, I just left and wasn't able to eat any dinner. The first thing that I noticed was the salt shaker was sticky and greasy with gunk all at the top and I asked for it to be exchanged. Just disgusting! I ordered prime rib, medium rare and it tasted terrible! It was definitely done medium and well done on the edges. I told the waiter I didn't like it and he asked me if I wanted something else. I asked him if the shrimp soup had gluten in it and he said yes. So then I told him I'll just take the escargot because it's getting late and I don't want to wait for another steak to be cooked as my son was almost done eating. Service was absolutely terrible! We hardly saw our waiter. He was not attentive. He wasn't apologetic and it seemed from my opinion that he was a bus boy filling in. ( sadly, the manager said he is a regular server) He gave us our dessert menus and filled our cups with water, but never took my son's desert order. We waited and waited. We couldn't even see him within eye shot for a good amount of time. MIA I went up to the front to request the manager. I spoke to a female manager, who was more than rude. Just nasty ( now that I scroll back there are other reviews referencing rude wait staff and a nasty manager) I kindly told her the experience I had and how awful it was and how I will not be back and I'm going to leave a review. I didn't yell but thoroughly explained the situation. I told her what happened and that I still have not eaten any dinner and My son had finished....His dessert order still had not been taken, and I have never received my escargot. I proceeded to ask her how long escargot takes. She said typically 20 minutes. Then she literally said to me in a loud voice. "well I was going to comp your dinner, but since you're gonna leave me a SHITTY review anyway I'm not going to do that". The first thing I told her was "I never asked you to comp anything for me" then she said she could've charged me for the steak. Lol charge me for the steak that they cooked incorrectly and they tasted terrible and they are already took back?? Excuse me? How can you have a Manager that curses at customers?? For the record, I never cursed at her. She must just have a potty mouth. I then relayed to her what I expect from a manager: to get another server or somebody to help us right away because we're still waiting. The manager had to go looking for the waiter about five minutes later she comes to my table with the waiter to " fight it out" and she tells me I never ordered escargot! Then the waiter tells me "you told me you didn't want anything else" I said where are you getting this from? I asked you if the soup had gluten in it you said yes so then I told you I'll order the escargot. So, in my opinion the waiter lied in front of the manager and said I never ordered anything! Of course, the manager completely believed the waiter and had no apologies to offer at all. Why would I go looking for the manager to check on my escargot if i never ordered it? Or was the waiter just not listening? or was there a language barrier? I have no idea but the whole experience was awful. If you're thinking about coming here for good food or good service, it's my opinion please just save yourself the trip and the money. After my son was done with his dessert, the waiter actually said "I'm just going to charge you for your meal and dessert" and I'm thinking to myself well what else would you charge me for? You took back my steak and you never brought out the escargot I ordered. One star is too much for this place- I will never be back. My son is a server at an upscale restaurant in Oakbrook and even said he thought the service was terrible and he would never be able to get away with that without getting in trouble at his restaurant. So I left tonight eating nothing but the the side of coleslaw and a sweet potato for dinner. Horrific experience that ruined our dinner. Maybe this is what you get from a family owned establishment that doesn't have to follow corporate rules like so many upscale restaurants do.... I went there once and it was good, but I should've read the bad reviews because they also reflect rude wait staff poor, Service and a nasty manager. Not to mention one review talks about the staff lying that they touched the drink that they wanted to refund on when they never did. I encountered all of those poor experiences tonight. And unfortunately, no one seems to care. Never again. Nope.

    THE USUAL SUSPECTS…read more This dive bar in Lisle is a haven for townies, which is certainly a vibe. Maple Ave Pub is, unsurprisingly, on Maple Ave just west of Route 53 in the western suburbs of Chicago. I'd estimate I've stopped here close to a dozen times, although a handful of those instances I neglected to check-in on Yelp for fear of my wife seeing it ("I thought you were coming straight home from work....") An older woman's been behind the counter seemingly every time, taking drink orders and making small talk. She's friendly--​moreso with the locals than with me--​and I'll occasionally get called 'hun', 'sweetie', etc, which is endearing. I got way better service from the hot tattooed barkeeps at Brauer House in Lombard, however. To be perfectly honest, I've never eaten anything here. The wings look like they might pass muster, though there's a few items that raise an eyebrow (clam chowder at a dive bar? thanks, I'll pass). Possum Pub in Melrose Park had surprisingly good food, and it was a major dive, so perhaps I ought to give the grub here a shot sometime. They have several pool tables, a Big Buck Hunter, Golden Tee, dart board, boxing machine, and pair of pinball machines; as of 6/19/24 they've got a Star Trek premium (Stern, 20​13) and JAWS (Stern, 2024). In the past they had Oktoberfest (American Pinball, ​2018), Fish Tales (Williams, 1992), and a stunning Circus Voltaire (Bally, 1997). Last week, the A/C wasn't working so this place was SWELTERING on one of the hottest days of the year. Normally I stick around for a couple pints and 2-3 games of pinball, but it was so toasty inside (worse than outside) I only played 1 game and skipped the beer completely. There were no fans on, either. * TL;DR * Dive bars are all well and good, but maybe it's time I found a new spot to hit up for a cheap domestic pint. Over the years I've gotten a handful of looks that can be described as quizzical at best, and dirty at worst. I've been ignored by the bartender numerous times--with cash in hand, mind you--while she's chatting away with regulars, as I'm standing there absolutely parched. I want to like Maple Ave Pub, but the feeling doesn't seem mutual. If it weren't for the pinball tables, I probably wouldn't return.
