    My boyfriend and I had an early dinner here on New Year's Eve and it was a lot of fun. Festive decorations, excellent service from Vicky, and delicious food. We also tried their famous Tom and Jerry cocktail and loved it! So good!! Vicky was very kind, answered menu questions, and provided recommendations. Everything looks so good and I definitely need to come back. Relaxed atmosphere and spacious interior. Lots of seating and yet still makes you feel like you have privacy. I really appreciated all the holiday decorations. They really did a wonderful job. I really enjoyed the fish and chips. The fish was haddock and it was fantastic, and the batter was so crispy. Even the tartar sauce was homemade. The fries were excellent, as well as the side of coleslaw. I also ordered a side Caesar salad. My boyfriend enjoyed his French dip sandwich too. We ordered the spanakopita for our appetizer and that was amazing! So flaky and flavorful. They offer it as an entree and I'll have to order it next time so I can have more. I really enjoyed reading about the history of the restaurant and I love that it's been family owned and operated for so many years. It's been around since 1935. Such a special place!

    I really liked the atmosphere. Exactly what you think of when you are thinking of a downtown Chicago bar and restaurant. Lots of pictures on the wall, TV's showing all types of sporting events and plenty of activity and noise. Tom & Jerry's are the specialty drink (it's the holiday's). Had to try one because my mother used to make them every Christmas. I have to say it wasn't bad... but could compare to mom's (but haven't ever found one that could!) Had a reservation but he sat at the bar for a while because we were early. Table was ready pretty much right on time. Our waiter was very nice, but he was either a little distracted or overworked, maybe both! Got our appetizer, but no plates or silverware (had to flag him down to get some). Food also showed up missing some items. He happily made everything right, just took awhile. Some of the food was good some not so much. We both got salads that were drenched in dressing and we also didn't love the Onion Rings Appetizer (they looked a lot better than they tasted, great breading tasteless onions). I had the Prime Rib French Dip. That was pretty good and my wife had the Rueben. That was decent too. I'd go back because the place was cool and enjoyed the sandwiches.

    I love coming to this place! Even when it is packed and there's a wait, we always get a booth, sometimes it's the same one we always get lol I've tried a few things from the menu and can say that everything is good so far! This time I went in on a Wednesday night and was surprised to find the place packed but we were able to get our usual booth (we never ask for it we're just coincidentally sat there almost everytime we come in.) I tried the Caesar salad, as I have been eyeing it for a while, and my partner was finally able to get their famous chicken pot pie. It is always sold out so we had not been able to try it for a while. Everything was delicious. The chicken pot pie was the star of the show. The filling was so nice and thick. The pie crust was superb. The Caesar salad was delicious but I would order it without capers next time as they were too salty for my liking. It is a great serving too. I would definitely recommend the pie though as it was so delicious . The fish n chips is always a favorite as well as their chicken wings. I will definitely be back to try some more menu items.

    Stopped by before going to the Art Museum and it was worth it. We got the homemade chicken pot pie and am I glad we did. This was so tasty and delicious. All the food we ordered was delicious. Was the perfect comfort food on a rainy day! This place is definitely worth the hype.

    What a gem of a place! Natalie and Kevin were amazing at the bar, will be coming back just for them. Great banter and service, old school bar that doesn't disappoint.

    I grew up in Chicago, but went to Miller's for the first time last week. I was pleasantly surprised at how tasty the food was! Burger was cooked a perfect medium well, and the spinach artichoke dip is addicting service was friendly + quick - a great late night option as well!

    We popped into Miller's on a Monday afternoon to escape the cold. We sat at the bar for a Baileys coffee and a Pilsner, and it was exactly what we needed. I love the classic, vintage vibe of this spot--it feels like a true Chicago institution. The staff made us feel right at home. We'll definitely be recommending this gem to others!

    So good I went back three times in one week! This was my first trip to Chicago, and since I was staying at the Palmer House, everyone recommended Miller's Pub. At first, I wondered what all the hype was about--then I had my first meal. Night one: BBQ ribs with salad and mashed potatoes. Those mashed potatoes instantly became my obsession--I ordered them every single time I came back (even as a side with lunch). The ribs were fantastic, the shrimp was delicious, and one night I got ambitious and ordered the prime rib. I didn't realize how popular it was--I snagged one of the last pieces, and minutes later they were sold out. Beyond the food, the service was incredible. Every staff member treated me like family. I ate solo each night with my headphones in, and they never made me feel out of place--just comfortable and welcomed. The atmosphere has that cozy, homey vibe--like the go-to restaurant hangout you'd see on a classic sitcom. Honestly, Miller's feels like a true Chicago gem. I can't wait to come back for more (and of course, those mashed potatoes) - At this point, I will be the mashed potato enthusiast for this restaurant!

    We had the mushroom burger and french dip sandwich. The both items had a lot of flavor. Service was average and friendly. The Irish setting bar was definitely a nice touch. Stop in Millers if you get a chance

    We only had pre-game drinks, but was a pleasure to soak in the atmosphere of this storied bar est. in 1935! From the stained glass, to the beautiful Christmas decorations, the crass but sweet company posted on the barstools.... and the pic of Lou Rawls on the Wall of Fame!

    We found this place via Yelp and glad we did for lunch. I had the World Famous Ribs and they didn't disappoint. The service was on point and average noise level.

    Rib plate!

    Ok - not gonna lie! Agree with most this place has all the ambience you're ever going to want or need. Stopped in here with my kid. And from Chicago, but live in Houston. I've lived outside of Chicago for almost 30 years now but come back frequently. I've heard of Miller's pub but never ever stepped in until today. Somebody told me the ribs here were just phenomenal. And the guy that told me competes in the Houston rodeo bbq cook off at the Houston rodeo. So I came to try them. If I'm being honest, I am going to have to have a talk with that guy. I thought the ribs were kind of dry. The coleslaw was good and the fries were like McDonald's fries but everyone knows McDonald's fries are yummy. They have this hot habanero mustard sauce that is out of this world. I'm not giving Rave reviews here. It was a tad better than ok, but I had an expectation. Everyone knows the biggest problem in any relationship is unmet expectations. Hey... it's good folks. And I will likely come again. And try something other than the ribs. In health and happiness! Cheers! Danny

    Everything I could ask for in a English pub. Great beer…read moremenu, enough different options but a clear focus on bitters, ales, pub ales, etc. Started with a scotch edge and it was delicious. The sausage was very tasty, the breading on the outside was incredibly crisp, light, and the egg inside was cooked well. Both the steak pie and the chicken pie were very good. The chicken pie I think really needed the chutney that you can get separately. But that made it so much better and made it my preferred pie. The steak and ale pie was better than the chicken pie as a standalone, but needed a bit more gravy I think to elevate it. Sticky toffee pudding again was delicious. Surprisingly light, not overly dense so I was glad it came with the custard which was very flavorful. Overall, will definitely return!

We ordered the Steak & Ale Pie (crowned with mash and gravy) and the Chicken Balti Pie. Both were delicious, but I think crowning the steak pie was definitely the right call. The chicken balti actually reminded me of the Taiwanese curry pastries (咖喱角) I grew up eating, which was a fun surprise. Very flavorful, and although the pies look kind of small at first glance, they are surprisingly filling. We also ordered the pickled egg -- basically a hard boiled egg with vinegar flavor. Tasty, though probably the most "normal" item we had. One unexpected highlight was the staff. Apparently many of the servers are freelance musicians, and they'll break out a guitar and ukulele song if someone is celebrating a special occasion. Very chill, friendly neighborhood vibe overall.

I had been wanting to try Industry Ales when it opened and was glad to have had the opportunity to finally check it out! I was slightly thrown off, as the dining tables are at the front of this space, and the bar is all the way at the back. In fact, my friend at first glance thought it was a sit-down dining establishment sans bar seating. We found our way to the bar and posted up at two seats. We were offered menus right away and found the bartender extremely knowledgeable. This was super helpful when facing down an encyclopedia of ales. He offered samples when we explained what we were looking for. That is service above and beyond, especially on a bustling Friday early evening. The brews were tasty, but I couldn't really discern what I was drinking apart to say it was a lighter Belgian Ale. Wine is more in my wheelhouse, but always good to change things up, especially when a person has the opportunity to be guided by an expert. The people seated nearby had ordered the tuna tartare which looked delicious. In fact, all of the menu is globally influenced (think: pizza samosas, pierogis, Korean BBQ) in addition to the classic brewpub favorites. In addition to the Brewpub, this location features the Millroom, a speakeasy-style lounge. I did not have a chance to check that out on this visit. Definitely a cut above the usual sports bar and a place to expand one's knowledge of brews.

Definitely a place to bring a large party on your first visit, so you can sample a multitude of wonderful creations. Pro Tip: if you can tolerate a large quantity of fish, visit on a Wednesday for their AYCE Fish & Chips. I've had many hum drum AYCE dinners that are drab and only fill you up. Not this one. It's a great meal and a great deal. The Shepherd's Pie was fabulous, as was the Bangers and Mash. They've created a Haggis Burger that has to appease Americans, yet, still be haggis. A tall order since most would hate "true" haggis. Fear not, it's not your grandfather's haggis, it is a tasty burger. The fries were great but I'd recommend the Tattie Skins. We tasted so many different malts it was hard to pick a favourite. No foolin' they had island malts, highland malts, speyside and even a couple from the lowlands.
