If you're looking for a true neighborhood pub experience, Jackson Avenue Pub is definitely worth…read morechecking out. The restaurant itself is very small, with a bar and just a handful of tables, but that's part of its charm. It genuinely feels like the kind of pub you'd stumble into while traveling outside the U.S. Thankfully, we were lucky enough to walk in and find a table ready for us. My wife and I started with the pretzels and beer cheese appetizer, which was a delicious way to kick things off. For our entrees, I went with the fried pickle burger, while my wife ordered the buffalo chicken wrap. The burger was perfectly juicy, and honestly, it was one of the best, if not the best, burgers I've had in Naperville. The buffalo chicken wrap was very good as well, with a nice kick from the buffalo sauce. Overall, Jackson Avenue Pub has that cozy, authentic pub atmosphere that's hard to find, along with some really tasty food. Definitely a spot we'd come back to!

From my seat behind the bar. It's a low top table

The atmosphere was that of a typical bar, not exactly quiet, but to be expected. The waitress was friendly and greeted us promptly. We ordered drinks and nachos as an appetizer.

It was a pile of tomato paste (yes, it looked to just be tomato paste) mixed with some shrimp, and rice. This was taken home, well the shrimp were, the tomato paste was discarded. I ordered the Mississippi Pot Roast Dinner, which came with Steak Fries. The pot roast was tasty and well-cooked. The steak fries were tasty and not over-salted.

Tom's Place is certainly a throwback with the beers of yesteryear. Also it's cheap. You can get wasted on a few bucks it seems. Convenient location in the downtown area. It's next to the Metra station. There's also a ton of other bars around here but this beats all those. About the cheapest place for beers or anything. It's $2 to get Blatz. This is the only place I know that has it around here to be honest. Cheap but it's a good classic beer. It's $5 to get the cheapest cocktails such as Jager and Coke. They have no food except for popcorn. Got cheap beers and cocktails. It's known for the cool sign outside. The cooler thing is they actually have this classic beer, along with cheap ass liquor, and free popcorn, making this a must stop for locals, visitors, or whoever.

Long standing patron of this place! Loved it, the people, the food and the atmosphere! Then one night about 3 years ago I was called a c*unt by some random male 1st timer. My reaction was to slap him. He in return SUCKER PUNCHED me. These assholes kicked me out and banned me for life!! What a sad joke! But that's okay because they probably still have the drug deals going on in there late nights! Steer clear if you want respect!!! read more
