We've loved Old Chicago since the 1990's and were excited to have one open so close to our house. Whether we're sitting at the bar or at a booth or table we've always had good experiences. Lengthy beer menu, always changing and evolving. The World Beer Tour and rewards program offers lots of prizes and discounts to keep you coming back. Menu and food changes often enough to have variety, but favorites and classics are always there. The burgers are actually a hidden gem, I get it well done with a side of tots. They're happy to customize just about anything, and one of our new favorites is the Cauliflower crust with BBQ sauce as the base, chicken, bacon, pineapple, jalapeño, and cheese with Hot Honey drizzle. They get really busy sometimes, but some grace and patience everyone comes through Okay. read more

The food and service here the other night were great! The chicken tenders are next level, so great! Huge portion and two sauces come with it. Comes with fries but only $1.50 extra for a huge salad instead of fries. The personal deep dish pepperoni pizza was also great. They also have some cool cream sodas to choose from and I loved the cola and orange one. Service was great! Really enjoyed the visit. One tip: they don't do some promotions like the three for $10.99 one being advertised now, because they are in a hotel and not stand alone. read more

Place is located within the hotel and you have to really look for it to find it if you aren't an actual hotel guest. Our server was Andy (studying to be a Nurse) and she was excellent! Andy was very friendly and attentive. A lot of TV's surrounding in all directions with different sports playing, which was nice. Some type of funky music playing overhead. We ordered a calzone and just split it as they are huge, so plenty for both of us. I just wish it would have been warmer. We also ordered mozzarella sticks, which were really good. Ice tea was brewed and very good. For desert we ordered the cookie with ice cream, which was fantastic! Disappointed in the bathroom! The handicapped stall was available, but the other one is out of order. The main reason for my disappointment in the bathroom is NO SOAP is available! Yes, they have GermX that barely squirts out, but that's NOT the same as soap. As a person who has 3 Science Degrees, I know hand soap is extremely important and necessary! I will spare you the biology and chemistry details! Please correct this problem. read more

There's a reason they call it 'happy hour' and Old Chicago definitely knows why. They've got the shareables and the drinks to make your after-work time well spent. This OC is connected to the Hilton Gardens Inn near the KC airport. The spacious dining area is completed by a U-shaped bar and the TV sightlines are outstanding anywhere inside. Have a seat at the bar, sample beer both local and well-known, and order from a strong menu. OC's pizza is really darn good, and I suggest the thin crust, which is not *too* thin and still holds all of its toppings. I'm an easy mark for the Pepperoni Rolls, a stellar appetizer that comes with marinara and is shareable but only if you like the person you're sharing with, otherwise, eat them all. This location is currently only open 3-10, but that's plenty of time to fill in a late lunch, a happy hour, or catch supper during a game. There is ample space, super friendly staff and quick service, and the food is worth the visit. They almost always have some sort of promo going, like a beer tour or whatever, so you'll have tons of options when stopping in. read more

Well last time I was here there were people in the restaurant. Is this place an afterthought. I mean 12 noon and there is no one in the restaurant or even a hostess. My co-workers and I thought the rapture happened when we were headed there. Problem is this is the second time being there on a Friday. Let me add the ambiance would be perfect as the place was empty. Waited a bout 5 minutes called out... no answer. We all went to church the following Sunday just in case.. read more

Food was surprisingly decent for hotel food. The place was a decent sports bar with everything you'd expect. However - 10p closing is incredibly difficult. After a night out and not wanting to leave the hotel i would have paid good money for a beer after hours. read more

This place is my home away from home. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. The beer is always cold and the food is... well, it's bar food... which is exactly what you want while you're watching the ol' sports game or a news reel about how robots are going to take over all of our jobs. The restaurant is also very clean. read more

This was located close to the Hilton near the KC airport and i didn't want to venture out too far. I went early and sat at the bar. The bartender was attentive and did a good job. I ate what i could of the pizza - for individual size it was a lot of food so i took some to go. The pizza was good, beer was cold and place was clean. Will absolutely come back and try some other items on the menu the next time I'm in town. read more

I ordered a Tanqueray & Tonic to start off with. Doubt very highly the gin actually was Tanqueray. Our appetizer was firecracker shrimp. Meh. Slight spice, decent portion, average flavor profile. We tried the Thai chicken pan pizza. Okayish taste. Good sauce. Chicken and broccoli were quite dry. As a Chicago-born pizza aficionado, crust was disappointing. Not served on a pan. Thick but not Chicago-style thick. Came out suspiciously fast. Temperature was warm, but not hot. The server was okay. Polite and efficient. Not overly welcoming. Big deal. Don't need to be treated like royalty. I'm not at all royal. However the hostess, maybe another server, was appalling. She had her back to us for several minutes at her computer billing screen. Not a hello or a F You. She must have heard us, merely 3 feet away. She turned around, walked off somewhere. We made eye contact. She snarled something like "I'll be with you soon" without breaking stride. Her eyes and voice showed resentment and/or pure hate. read more

There is a reason that old Chicago should have gone out of business. The only thing worse than the service was the horrendous food. Overcooked, no flavor, and no management doing a thing about it. If this place is independently owned, the owner needs to clean shop starting with the leadership. Terrible place and terrible food. read more

amazing food and Sarah was the best. very friendly staff and I will be returning. The manager was great as well. A helpful bunch of folks.

We had an excellent experience at Old Chicago pizza. The food was great and the service was even better. Daren was a great server- If you can give him a raise. Have a great day! read more

Food was tasty but service was slow so to what looked like a shortage of help. Walked in to a please wait to be seated sign and waited for 5 min. No one but the bartender, so I walked up and sat down. He was very friendly and asked if I wanted a drink and a menu. About 10 min later two girls came out from the back and one was apparently training the other. I had no interaction with either. I joined the beer tour. Wish they served Old Style Beer. read more

Pizzas were fantastic and the service was outstanding! We'll be back for sure, soooo good!!!

It's a new staff there and they are all taking care of business. The food is delicious and the bar be baring stop by check em out

We always get the double deckeroni pizza. The hamburger rolls are so good. Tons of beer on tap if that's your thing.

The food was awesome. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Even though it's attached to the hotel I like that it's open to the public. Would recommend. The ale crust pizza is my recommendation. read more

Good food. App came out with pizza. Slightly disappointed that the Old Chicago Pizza wasn't Chicago style pizza (super deep dish). But food was tasty. Chicken Bacon ranch pizza good. Thai pizza was not spicy, but was salty. Nice bar area. read more

Have been visiting this property for some time now. I enjoy having the restaurant as an easy option for dinner or a drink. the service is always excellent, personal, and professional. Management is doing a great job of creating a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. Will certainly be returning not only as a guest to the hotel, but a regular to stop in for a bite to eat! read more

Love the pizza here and the bar is nice. People were very pleasant and service was great. Lots of tvs to watch all the games.

Ambiance... sports bar with a lot of TV's. Service... we where greeted and sat. Waiter took our order. Drinks came out. Food.... Salad, fried mushrooms and pizza. Everything was good. They had on a baseball game that I could hear with all spots on other TV's read more

Stopped here before heading to the hotel for dinner. Thought it sounded good and would be a nice dinner. The cheesy bread we ordered was not so cheesy, and the pizza tasted like a glorified Pizza Hut pizza. Prices were on the high side for what you get. Not somewhere I would come back to. The quality of the food was not there. Service was nice. Atmosphere was nice. Just the food was not so nice. read more

Negative stars, worst restaurant ever! Tried to serve a raw pizza, never offered drink refills! All servers walking around with stank face, bothered by their jobs, Saturday evening, of course people are coming to eat. Will never go to an old Chicago again. read more

Waiter was very polite and professional. Liked the set up with TV's everywhere and nice seating. Pizza was good with the exception of the crust. No way could a slice be picked up by hand. Dough was soggy and mushy. Had to use a fork. Even deep dish pizza was soggy all the way through. Only disappointment. The pizza tasted good. read more

**IMPORTANT. PLEASE READ** I was in town for business and had a late dinner at the Old Chicago attached to the hotel. Our expectations were not high so I ordered the chicken fingers with the sweet chili Thai sauce on the side. I cannot overstate how my expectations were exceeded.....WOW. These things were so delicious that I have to write a review. I mean......I NEVER do this, but this is important. I've always considered chicken fingers to be a child's food, or something generic and preferred by those with a limited palate. I was wrong. I mean look...they were tender but crispy and seasoned in a way that matched the texture....hard to explain. After a bite and about three chews the chicken, fried breading, seasoning and chili sauce combined and the euphoric taste triggered a shot of dopamine to my brain and an involuntary chewing smile. Bravo, Old Chicago...well done. I highly recommend read more

I was craving a pizza while traveling all week and noticed that their was a pizza place as part of the Hilton Garden near the airport. Great place with good selection of beers, pizzas and other food for those not looking for a pizza. I had the Chicago 7 style and OC thick crust. Thoroughly enjoyed the pizza, service, and local IPA beer. Will be back for sure when traveling near the KC airport. read more

We used to eat this at this place when I was young. Let me tell you that this place is not the same. This is one of the worst places I've ever been to in my adult life. The service was kids that were sitting down playing chess. We sat down, then four other people came in and there both was covered with food that was never cleaned off. Our waiter was very matter of fact, hat on backwards and wearing jeans. The chicken tenders were very good. Except there was supposed to be 6 but we got 5. My sons pizza was just dripping oil all over the table and he used about thirty napkins to get the majority of it up. My chicken pesto Alfredo with applewood chicken and broccoli was super oily as well. Very little chicken and very little broccoli. Take it for what it is, but this was a very poor meal in my opinion. I usually don't write a bad review, but this needed to be done. read more

Ok so there sweet and smoky wings were AMAZING and the Sicilian pepperoni rolls were YUMMY!!!! I needed the food, I was staying in the hotel but I ordered to go and it was so good! You won't be disappointed! read more

Saturday night out and we decided to stop in for some dinner and to relax. It wasn't too busy when we got there so we got to sit down right away. Service was quick and friendly. It was a little loud, but it was mostly the table next to us. Our appetizers came out pretty quick. We got fried pickles and mozzarella sticks. Delicious & we're very fresh. Pickles had the right amount of seasoning & just the right amount of crunch as were the mozzarella sticks. It didn't take long and we had our entrees. We got a calzone (meatball, pepperoni, chicken and extra cheese). That thing was pretty big. You get a calzone you better be hungry! It's very filling. A little greasy, but not bad. I had the chicken carbonara. Now I gave it 4 stars only because there was no chicken in the dish, which honestly tasted pretty good without it. No biggie. The dish was still delicious! Other then the loud table next to us the experience was great, the workers were friendly and the meal was delicious! read more

We've been here in the past. Not sure why I haven't written a review. Everything has always been really delicious and conveniently at our hotel. Today we started with some Manhattans and Spicy Fried Pickles. I love the pickles - they have some heat but are always sweet. For lunch we had the OC Thick 6 Slice Pizza with pepperoni, hamburger, and green peppers. The pizza was so delicious!!!! I really enjoy eating here. We will definitely be back! read more

Late lunch was the priority of the day after arriving in Kansas City on a brisk October 2019 trip and meeting up with friends. We ended up here at Old Chicago Pizza & Taproom. Old Chicago Pizza & Taproom is similar to Chili's, since their restaurant layout and menu choices seem to mirror each other. At first, we couldn't find the restaurant from the main road, but we ended up finding it since the entrance was located on the backside of a hotel. You could see it off the interstate but not from the local road fronting the hotel. With that said, my friends and I arrived here around 2pm on a cool Thursday afternoon. The restaurant was quiet and was well kept. It was funny that we had our Pokémon Go apps open on our phone and the server admitted to us that he pays too, which was awesome. With that said, the experience here at Old Chicago Pizza & Taproom lasted about an hour. They had an assortment of beers that fit their lunch specials, but apparently what I wanted didn't fit in, so I just decided on ice tea instead. I ended up with their cheeseburger with fries, which was ordered medium. The ambiance was nice and quiet. The burger itself hit the spot after 10 hours of travel. Quite nice to be able to sit down and enjoy friends and good food here in Kansas City. The overall experience here at Old Chicago Pizza & Taproom was quite nice and in a quiet area near the Kansas City international airport. It's location is at 10920 N Ambassador Avenue and located on the first floor of the Hilton Garden Inn hotel. Just be aware that you won't see it from the local road since they don't have a sign in front, but you could spot it on the interstate coming in. They accept major credit cards and also do cash too. I arrived with friends after being picked up from the airport, so it is a place where you can go for a nice meal prior to leaving Kansas City or after arriving. Not sure about public transportation to get here, but best bet would be to arrive early enough to grab a bite before heading off to your flight. Also, uber and Lyft are viable choices for you to get here too. The service here was good and friendly, while being professional and courteous at the same time. I was impressed by the way they had their menu laid out and how much items they had for lunch and dinner. It was similar to Chili's honestly. The prices here were decent, as it mirrored many other places for overpriced burgers that cost $10 on average, but I digress. With that said, I was probably my first time to the Old Chicago brand, although I would have to check. First time to this location pretty sure; I know. I just went with my friend's suggestions and it turned out to work well. Who can't resist a burger and fries right after arriving on a jet plane in Kansas City? For the most part though, the experience was worth the trip and wished I had sampled a beer or two from here, especially when I wasn't driving at all for the weekend I was in the area. Oh well, next time. I felt like the burger was cooked on point and the fries were certainly spot on. Old Chicago Pizza & Taproom is place that i would recommend if you're heading to or from the airport and need a bite to eat before heading on your way to wherever you need to go. The restaurant is as intimate as you would like it to be but loud enough to be a sports bar on any given weekend for college football and other awesome games. If you are here, it was enjoyable with friends. Next time, I'll have some beers. Check this place out! 4.0 stars for the overall experience. 4.0 stars for the food and service. 3.5 stars for the prices but 4.5 stars for the quiet ambiance on a Thursday afternoon. Support local!

Last night while reading one of my favorite food forums, I read that a new Old Chicago Pizza & Taproom had opened up on North Ambassador Drive. Well, that sounded interesting, so I decided to check it out. They call it the Italian Melt. They slice turkey breast, salami and pepperoni, top it with provolone cheese, put it all on grilled rye bread, slather that with red pepper mayo, add lettuce, tomatoes and pepperoncini.  Standing higher tan Mount Everest, it was delicious! It's time to get up and give this new place to try! read more

Old Chicago Pizza was a great place to eat. But it's going down hill fast. Very fast. This was just not the first bad experience it's now three in a row and that means I'm done coming here. First time I was at Old Chicago at this location I was over charged on the price of the food. Menu was cheaper and lucky I caught it. Second time was they ran out of some food. They just replaced things without telling you. The best was my order of wings. No carrots or celery but the put broccoli on the plate. I did have a great laugh. Third time was I ordered a large Meat Me pizza asking to add extra sausage. When it came out I thought they forgot to add extra sausage. I asked the waiter and he said no it looks right I put it on the order. I laughed and said okay. Lucky I had a coupon for a free pizza. I took a pic of the pizza so you can decide. Maybe I'm just picky. Not this visit but if you sit at the bar the woman bartenders suck! Sorry lady's. They were more worried about what was on their phones. The guy bartender with black hair is very cool and is fast and can keep up with conversation as he makes drinks. Also follows up. The other waiters are good just young so they don't know how to take care of the customers. (Thanks managers) Now I did have outstanding service from two lady waiters. One had blonde hair works part time about 6 foot tall the other girl had blonde and red hair. I forgot their names. If I owned a restaurant I would try and steal them away. read more

What a disappointment and an insult to my family... We've been to the Old Chicago in Liberty and was able to sit at the bar with our 18 year daughter for dinner. The bartender was rude right off the bat, he told us that we can not sit at the bar because our daughter was not 21, which was no big deal but he was RUDE!!! My husband asked are the rules different here than they are in liberty? Tye bartender got in my husband's face and said you want to take this outside of which my husband was in shock and said we will leave. Bartender followed us outside and got my husbands face and wanted to fight.. please refer to the pictures read more

Had a chicken, cranberry salad. It was one of the saddest salads I've ever had. The chicken, the lettus, whatever it was that passed for cranberry... Just didn't mix well at all. I did eat the apples off the salad those were fresh. The guys I went with had pizza. Not to many complaints there, but they were not exactly raving about it either... Id skip this one.. read more

Didn't get all the toppings that I ordered and they said that they would remake it for me. So I waited 10 or 15 minutes and got the same pizza with the extra topping put on top of the original one. When I got the pizza it was Luke warm. The bottom of the box was cold.. Decided to try them again and got a calzone.they made it pretty fast but the inside was full of uncooked dough.. just mush... The day guy waiting tables both times I was in there seemed like he really didn't want to be there.. not friendly at all. read more
