Had a small party of 20 in the side room at Joe Daniel's last night in Palos Heights. Wanted to acknowledge Tara, the person in charge of parties, for her great support and friendliness during the scheduling of my event. The party was a big success, and I appreciate the good food and service we received. Thanks so much! read more

Neighborhood gem. The menu has a good variety to satisfy everyone. Excellent friendly service. Shout out to Betsy and Eddie. They remember you! read more

been here twice now and love it. perfect size bar/grille for my liking. bartender Eddie was quick and polite while handling dozens of orders somehow. best part is the food is some of the most reasonably priced i've seen around and above my expectations. 10 wings for $6.50 is unheard of these days. read more

Great sports bar , best sports bar in southwest suburbs . Very clean, quality food. TVs everywhere with every live game on. The staff is attentive and outstanding. Funny is that when I was going thru a divorce me lawyers office is up the street so my first stop after was here, lol. But I love the atmosphere, if you sit at the bar it's not cramped but spacious tabletop. Well lit. The parking seems sparse from the front but there's a huge lot in the back and can access from front or back door. Two huge screens showing hottest game in the front over the bar. Great place first Super Bowl, World Series or March madness parties, I recommend thebturkey club with waffle fries. Large assortment of beers ! Great place first sports fans to hang out. Free Wi-Fi ! Getting hungry, may go there soon, lol. You won't be disappointed. read more

We found this place by accident what a Great find and to see the Great Elmo....from the time you walk it feels like home..... from the decor to the music playing... the food selection covers all taste .. .the gravy with the sausage and peppers outstanding just a hint of Spice.....seeing Calamari Salad is something you don't see a lot but it was excellent. The waitress Justyna very good keeping our glasses filled even the busser was great at clearing our table so we didn't sit with dirty dishes read more

Dear Joe Daniel's, I really want to like you, I do. I like your location, ample parking, atmosphere, beer selection, good service, and overall concept. I really like your chili-cheese waffle fries -- Mmmm... I like your pizza. I like your bartenders and servers. I like the cleanliness. But you need to up your wing game. A bar without great wings is like... ...it just feels incomplete. Sincerely, Your future Wingman read more

After a long 8 hour drive of travel my husband and I decided to eat out. In the area we decided to try joe Daniel's. I ordered fish tacos and after a wait (our appetizer was delivered and we were eating it) the waitress came back to tell me they were out of fish. I reordered an apple flatbread and we continued eating out chicken wings. The chicken wings were bone in and blood red in the bone so we picked around them. After about 5-10 o min waitress came back to tell me they were out of flatbread. So I then ordered mini burgers/sliders. Our food arrived mine and my husbands Taco salad. The taco salad was basically a cooked burger chopped up unseasoned (no taco seasoning at all). What a mistake. We won't be returning read more

The restaurant was clean.Bathroom was clean. Atmosphere was good. Music was great. Server was nice. Order was accurate. The food was blah. The reuben sandwich had three slices of corned beef. Tasty but thin. The lumberjack sandwich looked much better than it tasted. Burger was cooked to perfection and tasty. Waffle fries are.very good. In five years when I go back, I will stick to the wings or bar food. read more

Last 3 visits at month end for 5 pm cocktails and dinner, the food was bad 2 different chicken sandwiches were dry and the fries were not fresh. Tacos were terrible no sour cream or guacamole meat was not goo. Service has been excellen. read more

Went for lunch. Place was empty. The server was lovely, which is why it gets 2 stars. The floor was unbelievably sticky. We arrived when it opened and noticed later there was garbage on the floor under a number of tables. So guessing the place wasn't cleaned well from the day/night before. I ordered a buffalo shrimp wrap. It was basically lettuce and tomato in a tortilla. I opened it up after not tasting shrimp and there was one shrimp in the whole half of the wrap. For $14.95. My mom ordered fish and chips. The breading was soggy and the fish was just gross. She tried to move her plate at one point and it stuck to the table. Even my daughters chicken nuggets were not great. Pretty dry. We will definitely not be back. read more

Great food and service, but it is sad that it is a Chicago area bar and they don't show Chicago sports on their TVs.

Friendly attentive bartenders, tasty 8oz. burgers, some good daily specials and great music! As the song says "I love this bar!"

First Visit: Great food! Great prices! Friendly staff! This was my first time here and I'm glad I came. I'm visiting on business and I'm always looking for a place that has good draft beer prices, big TVs and good food. I found it tonight! I will definitely be back! Day 2: Night and Day experience from yesterday. My waitress/bartender is awful!!! Where did you guys find her? She's the one with the bleach blonde hair. It took her over an hour to take my order. Then when she did, she never came back with my new beer. I sat at the bar staring at her and she kept walking by in la la land. Omg! She needs to get out of this business and retire. Not sure if I will be back....ugh. So disappointed! Then to top it off, I ordered boneless wings and bone in wings were made. I also ordered chips and salsa with a side of "homemade guacamole" and what I received was at least a day old gac. It was dark green, almost brown. They seemed shocked when I sent it back. The waitress did discount my wings and didn't charge me for the gac. Thank you! read more

Joe Daniel's - Great atmosphere! Clean. Friendly staff. Cheap prices. I'll be back! - Pubs Near Me - Palos Heights, Illinois

Great food! And Betsy will never leave you dry... On my way there to meet up with an old friend in an hour! read more

I love this place!! Eddie the manager is awesome as well.I take my mom here alot and food and service always wonderful...big fan of thr pizzas,Texas burger,pretzel w beer cheese and boneless wings. read more

Great Service and pretty good food for a pub. Just wish they had some healthier eating choices on the menu. Shout out to Devanie and Stephanie read more

It was Saturday the 25th of February 2023 at 5:22pm. We came in to try this place after seeing some posts on Facebook. It was somewhat crowded which was fine. We sat down and waited for our server. Took about 6 mins to get someone who brought a menu and took our drink order. It took about 6 mins for her to return with our drinks but she didn't take our food order. After about 6 more mins we just got up and left. I'm by no means pushy but almost 20 mins there and still wasn't able to place our food order was too much. read more

I like that you can order the boneless wings plain and get the sauce on the side. The honey barbeque and buffalo are both good and the blue cheese dipping sauce is yummy. Mix them together and yum! The pretzel bites and spinach-artichoke dip are ok but nothing special. I'm very picky, however, so take that how you will. Points off for: 1) Having a menu that says they serve Stuffed Pepper soup on Saturdays and they don't actually have that soup. 2) Not having anywhere to hang your purse in the bathroom stalls. I heard they were recently renovated and they look nice but come on, how hard is it to install a hook? read more

If you are looking to contract Covid, here's your place! My father, who has cancer and is undergoing chemotherapy, made the bad decision to eat there last week, despite the fact that it is not supposed to be open for indoor dining, and now he has Covid. Thanks joe Daniels! By the way, your voicemail box is full. I'm guessing this is on purpose. I hope you have a good insurance policy! read more

Their bartender, Betsy awesome! Always had a drink in front of you! However, order carryout, half the order missing. Maybe management should talk to there cooks! read more

I think I have outgrown this place. I remember liking it when I was 23. My guess is that it's ok for college kids or old men after work. I met a friend for lunch the other day and was excited to try it again. I probably won't ever go back. The service was terrible. The bartender was eating or on her phone the entire time. I had to wait for silverware well after my food was delivered. We also waited forever for the check! It was annoying. The food is nothing special. The beer list is awful!! People say the pizza is good. I may stick with that if you end up here. read more

So, I feel it necessary to state that I have been in the area for 20yrs. Each time I have gone to this establishment I have felt like the quality, cleanliness, food quality, and drink quality has diminished. This place has an awesome presence, it would be great to see some reinvestment into the furniture and bar area. The food was okay, but I believe in order to be competitive long term. Something will have to change. My intent of sharing this review is to be as honest and open as possible without casting negativity on the bar. It's a great location to meetup with friends. Just would appreciate a renewing of the menu and the bar. Draft station is not cold enough as it just spits foam when poured. read more

It's dark, like REALLY dark in there, and they have a reindeer head on the wall. Overall the atmosphere is kind of cool for a bar, and their Sam Adams is pretty cheap. That's where it ends though. The burgers are $8.00 and SO GREASY. My hands were soaked through the bread. Ew. Since their pizza is supposed to be "good", we got the bruschetta pizza as an appetizer. Big mistake. It was essentially flatbread covered with chopped tomatoes, what appeared to be either Bleu Cheese or Gorgonzola, and crappy processed grated Parmesan cheese covering the entire thing. That's it. Not the best quality, and I mean, c'mon- who puts blue cheese on a bruschetta pizza?! I wouldn't go back. Ever. read more

This bar isnt bad. The pizza here is some of the best bar pizza's Ive had. Good atmosphere inside, though it can be a bit crowded if you dont beat the rush on a Friday or Saturday. Big screen TV is a good place to watch a game read more

Just left. The beer & wine were fine. Service was terrible! We sat at the bar and the bartender was more interested in talking to his buddies than actually waiting on customers. We will NOT be back! read more

Look. Don't come into this joint expecting fresh flowers and modern fixtures. It's an old school dump. The kind that serves greasy delicious food, cold beer and a neighborhood gathering spot. The pizza is amazing. read more

It is a nice chill place. Somewhere to watch a game but still be able to hold a conversation. I feel like they are always short staffed. Although our server was friendly, it seemed like he had all of the tables in the place. I would recommend the nachos, pizza, or club/blt. My friend ordered the crab cakes and was disappointed. They were too small patties. read more

Beware of this restaurant my son was employed there and they never gave him his paycheck. They treat the employees like slaves! And we have a recorded call we're taking to the police on how they talk to employees that are trying to get their paycheck for working!!! read more

During these trying times, Joe Daniels is the place we feel comfortable. Staff is wearing masks and constantly wiping down surfaces. The staff is awesome and the food is amazing!! Keep up the good work. Love you guys. read more

I would give it 2 1/2 stars if I could. It's nothing over 3 but it's really not a 2 either. It's your basic bar. Good for groups if you get there early so you can get a table. Beer is on the cheap side but everything south seems cheaper compared to the North Side. It's a real Jeans and a T-Shirt type bar. They sell food but I haven't had it. It's a decent spot with a mix crowd of age groups. Some barely 21's and some barely living folks.ha! read more

My favorite neighborhood bar! Good food and drinks. Excellent service. You got my support during these difficult times.

I order lunch from Joe Daniels at least 4 times a week. I have my favorites: Thin cracker crust pizza, chicken ceasar wrap, blue cheese burger, great salsa and more... the food is great - very consistent & they are quick in the kitchen. It's a nice neighborhood pub to enjoy a good meal! read more

Great place for food. Chefs know how to cook! Went here last night and was not disappointed. Service was excellent. I will definitely be coming again. The bathroom was remodeled and is the cleanest bathroom on Harlem! read more

Waited over 15 minutes was never acknowledged by staff. Tried waving down the waiter to no avail. Not happy...

I am a Guiness drinker and it is always poured the right way and very fresh. Very clean establishment and the food is served in an appealing manner. I had the shrimp Dinner last night after 9pm and the oil that was used for the shrimp and fries was clean and not over used. The only down side was that the Bears laid an egg on MNF. read more

Haven't been here in quite a long time. It reminded me of a college bar. As a party of 8 hung out in the front tables. The waitresses were flipping a coin to see who could go home. After 10 minutes and three people that went to the bar to get their own drinks a server shows up. How nice of her to notice us! We stayed for a couple hours and we had to get up and get our own drinks several more times. I don't live by here, so I am sure the kids who come here will keep this place in business! read more

Really good wings. I like that they have a crunchy coating and the sauces are served on the side. Not the wings under the appetizer section; those are different. The spicy pizza is also very good and the burgers. A pint of Sams is only $3.50 so pretty decent. read more

Joe Daniels is a great place. Me and my friends go here and all the workers are so nice. You can't spell joe Daniels without O DAN - it's true. Every time I come here I'm like wow this is so fun. Even tho it is far from my house I stil like to come here. Thank u all. Especially hot Cody bar tender read more

I used to hang out here pretty regular some years back. Not too much has changed. Big bar to grab your drinks and have fun, Plenty of tables also available, TVs scattered around to watch your favorite sports team. We were sitting for quite some time and I choose to go to the bar and order. That's when our server finally noticed us. Anyway, good drinks, decent place to hang out. Service used to be better read more

Charged 5 dollars for me to make my own Bloody Mary. Then when it finally came was cold with no pita bread with spinach artichoke dip and no cocktail sauce with calamari. Waitress was really rude and it wasn't even that busy. Was walking away while we tried to order food. read more
