    Clean and plenty of seats
    Matt M.

    So we've been passing this place for years and always thought we should stop in.... So many thoughts as to what it would be like inside - happy to say it was better than expected! Such a neat little neighborhood feeling bar. There were plenty of tables and nice large bar area and it was clean and inviting. There was an unexpected little surprise with the fireplace and the bartender/waitress was super nice. The green pepper soup was excellent along with the pot roast sandwich. I really enjoyed the onion peddles and always a fan of a bar serving RC (bonus points for that) but the wings, while tasting great, were not as crispy in a few spots and for a 5 star the wings need to be rock solid. I will say that it was a great little spot and will be coming here again soon to try the burgers and give the wings another shot. For a quaint friendly little bar - this nails it

    Specials!

    I've driven past this place so many times! They used to have a sign touting the pot roast sandwich, and I finally was able to give it a try. Yum City! It's served on a roll with cole slaw and crinkle fries. I am usually not crazy about crinkle fries, but these were fresh and hot from the fryer-just crispy enough. Delicious! Others in my group enjoyed their steak burger (looked good!) and pizza. It's a little on the divey side (hubby thought it was a biker bar). It really seems like a place where locals go for a brew and a bite. Full service bar, clean, adequate self parking, some gaming machines, service pretty good, not pesty. I look forward to my next trip!

    Ordered take out from Mo's Willow Pub And Grub tonight for dinner and wasn't disappointed! My son and I got wings - I love that they weren't breaded! Super generous portions, I have leftovers for lunch or maybe a snack tonight!The Buffalo sauce is very tasty but not hot - the way I like it! My husband tried the italian beef and said it was great. Our daughter had the meatball sandwich and enjoyed it. Everyone loved the crinkle cut fries. Somehow they stayed crispy! 5 of us ate for under $50. ALL the pub food options! located on Archer in Willow Springs. Check out the menu - Have you tried them yet?

    Ground beef burrito... suppose to be steak

    Pizza was awful not fresh tasted like a aldi frozen pizza. Asked for a steak burrito they gave me a ground beef burrito. The Buffalo wings, onion petals, cheese wedges and Mac bites are the only things that was good ..

    Really cute place. Ordered an appetizer. Came out wrong. Oh well these things happen. Had to leave so only had a couple beers and a shot. Nice bartender. I'd like to go back.

    Is the outdoor patio area Dog Friendly?

    Not sure, but one time last fall, when my daughter was there, some people arrived on horseback!

    Good beer, good vibes! I like this place for a nice meal…read moreand Guinness. We had the fish and chips which is cooked perfectly plus I asked for the side of curry gravy - sooo good as fries dip. The place is not big, so it gets packed easily. We usually go here before 5pm and were able to snag couple chairs in the bar. Parking is a challenge, too on a busy hour or day.

    Rafferty's was truly an unforgettable experience. I haven't seen this much unearned superiority…read moresince a guy named Connor explained whiskey to me like his family personally invented Ireland. The atmosphere was very "we're better than you," which is ambitious considering half the room looked genetically connected to famine survivors and dock workers. The confidence level in that building deserves scientific study. I walked in expecting casual dining and somehow ended up in what felt like an audition for "Medieval Lords of the Suburbs." The staff acted like they were protecting ancient bloodlines instead of refilling ranch dressing. At one point I honestly wanted to ask: "Sir, are you judging me... while wearing a polo shirt with barbecue sauce on it?" The energy was aggressively holier-than-thou for a place where the main cultural contribution is fried appetizers and vodka seltzer. To be fair, the food was fine. But the side of racial superiority was a little harassing for my ego. If you're looking for a place to drink with historic levels of racism and naturally redheaded bartenders, this is the place for you!

We…read moredid wait a little to get helped at first and the host wasn't around, but once we were seated things picked up. For drinks, I tried the lychee mojito -- it was strong but had really good flavor and was enjoyable. For an appetizer, we got the pretzels. They had a nice garlic seasoning on them and were pretty filling. These were good. For mains, we ordered the Hangover Burger, tenders, and the Bulleit Bourbon Burger. Everything was really delicious. My fries just needed a tad bit of salt, but the burger itself was cooked well (I asked for medium). The flavors were good, and the honey running down actually worked well with everything. Our waiter was also really good and provided solid service. Overall, a great experience -- will be back.

    Warm and lovely British pub with delicious pies and efficient service…read more My dining partner and I tried the mushroom and kale and the rocking vegan pies. The mushroom and kale pie was nice and cheesy and the rocking vegan pie was more savoury, with a variety of vegetables and chickpeas as stuffing. The crust was neither too soft nor too crunchy. The highlight of the meal was the curry chips: potato wedges lightly fried with masala and curry leaves. The dipping sauce that came with the chips reminded me of tikka masala sauce, and paired beautifully with the chips. Dessert was toffee pudding: the caramel sauce that came with the pudding was delectable - the pudding itself was excellent and not overly sweet. We tried a variety of NA beers, and I was pleased with how many options they had. Service was quick, and we were well looked after. The ambiance is warm, with dim-ish lighting and a lot of dark wood. The restrooms were gorgeous - special shoutout to the lovely floral wallpaper. Overall, I highly recommend Pleasant House - the vibe is chill and understated and the food is stellar.

    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!
