Loads of beer on tap , whiskeys , and cocktails , which are very good. The poutine was fantastic & an excellent twist on the Canadian Classic. The Octopus wasn't all to tender and the sauce wasn't great.

This bookish space near DePaul will make anyone feel smarter. This gastropub is good for a nice brunch or fun night out. Read more

Food is alright, would recommend the beer cheese and Brussels sprouts . Love the whisky flights here! Nice atmosphere too

The mac & cheese and the meatballs are good. The poutine , the mussels , and the burrata are disappointing.

Very impressive Single Malt Scotch list for Chicago as well as American Whisky . Friendly bartenders
