Outdoor seating on sunny/warm days. Happy hour beer specials , last visit they were featuring Surly beer (delish!) perfect with the three flavors wings .

The crowds at this Old Town bar and grill come for the barbecued ribs and super-sized vodka-spiked lemonades and stay for the spacious covered patio . Read more

Seems like a great place to watch sports . Multiple bars , tons of TV 's and a good amount of space. Watched UFC PPV here and enjoyed it. They have food and golden tee, too.

Capitan Danyo

The BBQ Lovers Delight is a ton of food. You will eat for days. The Prime Rib on Fridays are good. The wings are good and the staff is fairly attentive.

Josh Scianna

Large bar in Old Town . Their specialty is large sugary cocktails served in plastic cups - if your looking to blackout this is the place to go.

Heather Folsom

BBQ burger was great. Fries were awful. $13 shrimp po boy only had 4 shrimp and a ton of bread & nasty pale tomatoes - it was decent tho, just way too salty. Ambiance is pretty nice. Good for sports .

Myles H.

Great food, better bathroom . Had an unreal poop in the north end toilet . Felt like a new man after my burger .

Pat D.

Great place for freezer burned chicken tenders . I've cut through phone books that were more tender.

John Heisel

Amazing pork chops were super tasty and best value for money .

ISC Chicago

$3 shot during Happy Hour (read the fine print )

Morgan Grimes

The wings = spicy / yummy.... burger was good but not my fav bc I love a good egg that oozes out, egg was a bit fried to a crisps 👎🏼 big ass lemonades not bad but tastes a bit like perfume

Serious renovations, significantly reduced in size for now until the expanded space is complete

eric bornemann

Nice place to sit outside but otherwise kind of forgettable.

Joey Nowak

Electric lemonade is a game-changer. One of few tolerable places in Old Town

Jennifer Carlisle

Order the FPI Barbecue Salad ! It's delicious!

Kellen Deady

Vodka lemonades are amazing, you won't remember how good they are the next day...

Jake Smith

The outdoor patio closes about an hour earlier than the bar .

Too busy at night. Crowds push and shove. Supposedly the good is good for dinner though. Will report back

Joey Nowak

Used to be one of the more tolerable bars in Old Town but the renovations have sucked most of what character it had to begin with.

Yummy food great atmosphere

Rusty Rector

We were perplexed by the bar staff on a Fri afternoon/eve. Both were cold, and seemed like they would rather be elsewhere. Many patrons were making comments about this around the bar . Not good!

Rachael Henderson

Where's the underage people?!? Here alone. Family event . Drunk and alone. My own age group

Susie White

Do NOT get the Santa Fe Quesadilla or the mini burgers . They looked like they came straight out of a box (but smaller - literally boca burgers cut in fourths) and were served totally plain with no sid

The Vodka Lemonades are awesome & seriously dangerous

Adam Hickey

Not going to lie, we usually head here if the line is long at Benchmark, however, it never fails to disappoint!

Bradley Collins

Old & lame.

Mary R

Don't ask them to make a grilled cheese . Unless you'd like it on a hamburger bun . Gross.

Jordon Novak

Buy jordon a beer .

Nicolas Hernandez

Great service and sights, but the food is very mediocre.
