Came before a game at Wrigley Field. Alex was busy due to pre game crowds but was amazing. Greeted…read moreus warmly and had an actual conversation with us. Food was delicious and perfect for a pre-game meal. Will definitely be back. The ambiance is more of an upscale bar vs a dive sports bar.

Cool atmosphere, nice vibe with bar space and seating upstairs, downstairs and on the patio…read more We only stopped for a quick drink but would love to return to try the food, especially a burger. Looks like burger specials during the week. My only gripe was the Parisian old fashioned I ordered came with the big ice cube but was served in a small plastic cup so the cube was over the rim and made it a little challenging to sip. I am wondering if disposable cups are just used on game days perhaps? It was too chilly for the patio for us, but there are a lot of places to sit outside.

Really great selection!…read more The place is really cute and homey with awesome art, comfy couches, a fire place, and tons of other cute features. Deffinatley check out their social media, they host a ton of cool events!

The staff, the selection, the atmosphere, the outdoor seating are all incredible. Love this place!…read more What a gem!

Stopped in on a whim for a quick girls catch up on a Monday night and was SO delighted with what we…read morefound at gman Very lowkey divey type setting with a great selection and steady (kind) regulars who keep the bar comfortably populated. Standard bar prices. EXCELLENT staff behind the bar who were kind, chatted us up, and were very sweet in every encounter. Overall a solid hang here. 10/10

Big fan of this place…read more Came in for a quick drink before the show at the metro and was served right away, not overpriced and had a cool ambiance to the place. Will return!

My niece & her husband live a few doors down from Guthries & they had invited us to a Cubs…read moregame...thanks to a rain delay we got to enjoy an hour at Guthries! As soon as I stepped inside I could tell this was my kind of pub. First off, they don't serve food (but you CAN get FREE hot dogs there on game day!!!) so you can stop anywhere & bring in your own food. We got take out & luckily got a front table by the window. We had really good cocktails & cold beer. So in the old school dive bar sense don't be deterred in that they DO make good craft cocktails here. They have sidewalk tables & a back patio. I would definitely go back!

On our first night in Chicago, I was looking for something to do in the Wrigley Field area, when I…read morediscovered a local pub was doing a Jeopardy trivia night. I showed up shortly before the game was set to begin and snagged myself a perfect spot at the bar. The place was already hopping and the vibe at Guthries is exactly what I'm looking for in a bar or pub. I started off with a Manhattan and honestly it was pretty bad, as it had been loaded up with vermouth. It didn't bother me that much, though, especially once the game began, which was just so much darn fun. My bartender was super friendly and helpful and I enjoyed the couple of beers I wound up ordering. I wish my local bar was as cool as Guthries. I'd totally be a regular if that were the case.

We came here after a Cubs game. I ordered for online pickup and it was ready by the time we walked…read morethere from Wrigley. We tried to beat the crowd if they do ever get any. The inside was beautiful decorated and the staff was great. My son ordered their Andouille sausage Po Boy, I ordered their Fried Shrimp Po Boy, and my wife ordered their Lobster Jambalaya. We also ordered a cup of their Gumbo and an order of their beignets. Everything was very delicious. The po boys were great. The sauce was good, bread was soft and they give you plenty of shrimp. The jambalaya could have used a bit more Cajun seasoning for some more spice but overall a decent dish as well. I can definitely see myself returning, perhaps to dine and order some drinks as well

So much history in Chicago, not going to recommend coming to Nola for a meal if you're a tourist…read more Locals, experience what you wish, especially since they do have decent food and a fun event every night of the week. This is not limited to Drag, Karaoke, etc. The environment and decorations are great for the Mardi Gras celebration, especially if you're looking for some place to celebrate as an immigrant from the South of the US. But, too expensive for the food that you receive. 08-13-2024

If you like an elevated sports bar experience I believe this is the place for you…read more We are very new to the Chicago area and stumbled upon this place while searching for a place to eat before going to the metro for a concert (walking distance). Being the area I made reservations which I can tell you is HIGHLY recommended, if on a game day. I cannot speak for things on a day that's not one but this was and they were booming with a line out the door. We were sat promptly upon arrival and greeted quickly by our server. She was incredibly kind and even seeked information for us regarding parking in the area, thank you! We started with a cocktail and a draft beer, I had the Dovetail on draft and they are very good and local! Appetizer was a bit of a let down, we ordered pretzel bites, which seemed like the ones you buy from Walmart, not fresh at all, queso wasn't bad tho Entrees were on point tho! My rigatoni was cooked perfectly and the bolognese was full of flavor, my wife got her burger and had no complaints on her end. Overall not a bad experience, I would like to try them again on a day that's not a game day in the future and maybe ask for a suggestion on appetizers next time as I feel that one was a complete skip. Til next time!

Made a 6:30 reservation, but thanks to a severe storm rolling through, we waited about 30 minutes…read morefor our table--which honestly was completely understandable. The restaurant and all three bars were packed with people taking refuge from the weather, and Swift Tavern was actually a great place to ride it out before our Mumford & Sons concert. Huge shoutout to our server, Marianne. Even while handling a crazy number of tables, she stayed friendly, professional, efficient, and even kept everyone updated on the weather. The vibe was definitely loud (understandably) and our back-corner table had more of a retro diner feel than the upscale ambiance we expected. Food was solid: the warm bread board was a great starter, the steak salads were good (although the steak consistency varied a bit), and the warm chocolate cookie dessert was tasty--though the soft serve reminded me a little of DQ. Cocktails were strong, but with an $18 espresso martini and a $24 premium dirty martini, you're definitely paying Chicago prices. Overall, we spent about two hours there waiting for the skies to clear, and despite the chaos of the storm, the staff handled an incredibly busy night with grace. Good food, strong drinks, and excellent service when it mattered most.
