On, on, U of K! Brilliant idea to use waffle fries as nachos . The pork belly tacos are so good!
The 16 inch grilled cheese is an awesome value! Small menu but it's all really good.
I like the table setup and service. Fighting for a space at the bar to order drinks is so old fashioned.
Ask for pony punch. Long island , blue powerade or hurricane. Its seasonal!
The sliders are great and so tasty here!
The Clydesdale grilled cheese , get it!
Very nicely maintained sports bar ! Great food and chill crowd.
They blast the Hawks game and play music during the breaks Just be prepared to not hold a conversation over the table if the hawks are on
The Clydesdale is awesome for a big group
The service is stellar!
The only place to go to watch Blackhawks games!
Great place to watch my husband's alum UK play some basketball . Clydesdale Grilled Cheese was tasty and huge.
The music is sweet, the food even better (thanks to Curtis McGhee)and you can find an occassional local celeb sitting next to ya at the bar (besides me of course)
Try and spot the non frat/sorority kids and win a free drink (free drink is a chic cocktail , of course).
Good for drinks. Stay away from the buffalo chicken breast because it's neither breast nor all white meat for that matter. Calamari is always overly fried and burned. Wings are always super salty.
Great brunch on Saturday: $4 bloody mary's and mimosas
Ask for Smooki. This place is where Jersey Shore kids would go if they were from the Midwest. Disagree? Look around.
Get the clysdale. Its amazing!
Come here to watch the Hawks games and if you're hungry, try the monster grilled cheese . It's 14 inches long...
Bring bail $ after 1am..
Taco Tuesday . Love it.
$10 of $30 or more with Drink Deck
Get the sliders ... Soo to come. The Kentucky Hot brown
the wait staff was attentive and really friendly when I was here
Nice bar , Tuesday trivia . Pricing fair and lots of screens.
Ask for Lauren, Luna, or Tiffany and tell them Evan sent you.
Be a dude if you want service.
$5 burgers on Wednesdays!
BIG BLUE NATION is everywhere!
Enjoy some ice cold ones with friends at the front table.
Hawks Game + Cowboy Burger = Delightful Combination
OOOHHHHHH C-A-T-S.... CATS CATS CATS!!!!!!!
Try the beer
Omg! The DJ is terrible!
don't come here if you're a dude. bartenders only serve girls. I expect that for a while but this place is rediciulous. aweful.
Refused service here because I was gay. Impossible to get a drink.
They charged my husband for 4 Cokes . I'm sorry that my husband doesn't drink. I had three beers , and we ordered pizza (gross...way too salty. Worst in the city ) and dessert . We will not be back.
Great service and plenty of TVs to watch in an upscale bar atmosphere. - Geoff Webber
The buffalo chicken wrap was great and the sweet potato fries were some of the best I've ever had. - Danial Shams
Gotta have a ryan burger and fries with some of the best homemade ranch in the city...incredible! The staff and ownership are top notch, a must do in chgo - megan patterson
I'm a chocolate and peanut butter ice cream addict and the chocolate custard with peanut butter mixed in is the best I've ever had! - Georgia Chevere
