If you're gonna offer something on DoorDash and you're out of it at least have the courtesy to call or message the person. I wound up paying $14 for a delivered soup that looks like crap. Mostly broth hardly any noodles and I couldn't find any chicken. I know I got refunded for the sandwich, but I would've canceled the whole order if somebody would've just called me and told me you were out of it. Never again. read more

Came here with friends for a post escape room drink. We sat outside since it was nice. Their back patio is huge with ample seating. I didn't get a mixed drink. I just got a High Noon pineapple beer (in can). They do also serve food like nachos, etc. Construction on the main road makes traffic a bit wonky so be careful. read more

This place has been located in Oak Forest for over 20 years. Great place to watch sports and hang out. They have a large patio to enjoy when the weather cooperates. Decent amount of parking. read more

My waitress delivered my food (pickle chips, meh) and I had an empty beer. Now that I am done I still have an empty beer. This place is not busy at all. And just to alleviate any prejudice I am a server. In total I sat for at least 20 minutes with an empty glass. Sad face this place looked really promising. read more

Very nice patio area! My Long Island Ice tea was great. We had to ask somebody to clean off the table and sweep before we could sit down. The waitress was very nice and attentive. We ordered chicken nachos and fried pickles that were average. read more

The food is terrible. We got several items and none of them were good and the weight staff would rather stand around and bullshit then come and get your drink. They are so slow here. read more

Chopped salad was terrible. Tasted off. Something was wrong with the chicken. They also added bacon after I requested no bacon. Waitress tried to make it right by giving me a new salad. Realized when I got home it was my original salad with the bacon picked out of it. Nasty!! read more

I've been coming here for over 10 years and the service and food has been going downhill for the past year. This was one of my favorite spots to unwind but will no longer be coming. read more

We stopped in for a couple of drinks. The service was good at the bar and we met some friendly regulars. The doors were open so you could smell the smoke from the outside. Otherwise it was a good experience. read more

Saturday night went here at 11 pm and asked for food. Was told that the Kitchen is closed?? Then why is it on your door? read more

Oliver's Bar & Grill - Saturday night went for a drink at 11 pm-was told the kitchen was closed??? - New American Near Me - Oak Forest, Illinois

Oliver's NEVER disappoints! A nice friendly atmosphere with a warm feel! There are always drink specials, and the food is tasty!!! From appetizers, to burgers and even soups. This evening I came for the game and sips! TV screens all around! And the playoffs were on so all eyes glued!! Good sips, good company, and the bartender Linda was a friendly treat!!! If you are ever in the area, doesn't matter what day of the week, Oliver's is a great place for eats and sips and believe me you will not be disappointed! #GetYouSome read more

Let's start with the good. The Fish was good and the waitress was fine. The lemonaide was grey, the ice tea terrible. They served my side, cole slaw in a half of a stryofoam take out container. They gave us plastic silverware. Very disappointing from the way Oliver's used to be. All the remodeling surely didn't help the atmosphere. The beer seletiuon is under whelming. I was there from 5:30 to 8:30 and the place was about 80% empty. I will looking for a new fish fry location. read more

Service is always TERRIBLE. Even when they aren't busy. The food is sub par at best, and drinks served in plastic (even a martini). Their POS system is hot garbage so they can never split checks. We only go here when we have a large group because they can always seat us. read more

Lily is the sweetest bartender I've ever come across she is so knowledgeable and the vibe is amazing with her I will always love this place because of her! read more

Had my daughter's high school graduation party there recently and they did a fantastic job in setting up the seating and reviewing the menu with me! I don't usually have parties outside of my house and don't usually cater food so this was very helpful! I could have gone with less trays of food actually because they bring out quite a bit! The food did come out a little later than planned but this was a forewarning they gave me and I appreciated that they didn't leave me hanging, so I could at least explain that to my guests! I will definitely have a party there again-the food was delicious!! The sausage and peppers were so good (THE SAUCE !!!) Big thanks to Oliver's for hosting our party!! read more

Great place to come unwind. The employees are friendly. The drinks are good and very inexpensive. The food is good and reasonable. I will keep going to this bar because I feel so comfortable. read more

Food was dry. And bad service. Didn't order drinks so feel that's why was given crappy service. Server never came to refil drinks we had to go in and get and never asked how food was. Had to go in to get check. No stars. Had to leave 1 for a review read more

This place is not greedy with their alcohol like most . They make a good drink, the wings are great, and the bartenders are kind. My favorite local spot read more

Let me tell you a little bit about Oliver's. We were visiting from California and we had the best service ever highly recommend this place. The food was delicious a little too much. I would say the drinks were amazing !!! do not underestimate Oliver's it delivers!!! until next time we'll see you again!!! read more

We come to Oliver's almost every Tuesday. We have the best service and love the food. A special shoutout to Marla, Erin and Maddie for the wonderful service and hospitality. They make Oliver's such a fun place to hangout read more

I'm sorry to say this restaurant does NOT HAVE ENOUGH HELP.....we waited 10 minutes. For a drink ..only one bartender on a Fri. Nite. They are upgrading and expanding but they better get some help in there. Prob. Wont be back..... read more

Good sports bar with a good selection of beers and spirits. The staff were friendly. The wings were tasty with a little kick to them. Plenty of televisions to watch your favorite team. It's a good place to catch up with your friends. read more

Oliver's is serving customers INSIDE! The food is awful, the service sucks - why risk your life to eat at this dump? Unbelievable! If you're looking for great food and service, checkout Flossmoor Station, Bailey's, Durbin's, The Mayan Palace, or Isabella's. You won't be disappointed. Special shout out to the Oak Forest Police who failed to call me back about this! I should have known they wouldn't have taken this seriously, as they are frequent patrons. Maybe the governors office will. read more

Oliver's Bar & Grill - Oliver's is open for business - INSIDE! How did Oliver's get a special pass to have customers eat inside? - New American Near Me - Oak Forest, Illinois

Shit is so ass and had to wait 3 hours for shrimps and wings and under cooked shrimp it's horrible

This place is a dump. Food blows. Service is ok. Music is dog shit! Wouldn't recommend.

Seems to have gone out of business without closing the doors or turning off the tvs. Showed up at 3 PM to get some lunch, two waitresses walked past on the way in, bar workers looked over, yet I waited 15 minutes at a table with nobody acknowledging me before going elsewhere I assume they've closed up shop and were just keeping the doors open for local walkers to wam up inside on cold days or as a local tv room. Oh well, another good business gone due to lack of management. read more

Best wings around! If you want bone in wings come here. They are hands down the best! We get them plain with sauces on the side. There blue cheese dressing is fantastic. It's are go to for football Sunday's! read more

Terrible service. Our group had to find the waitress on several occasions. All drinks are served in plastic cups .wine not good in plastic cups. My friend and I ordered chicken based salads. We waited 45 minutes, the chicken was sparse and tasted like shoe leather. This place was not crowded at all no excuse for poor service. WILL NOT BE COMING AGAIN. read more

A-OK place. Here's the skinny: Chili is pretty good. A few craft beers are available. Thursdays, mini burgers are on special for $1 each. Mashed Potatoes could use some help. Here's the fat: Oliver's is a nice place to have a decent lunch. The food is good and I especially like the Chili there though it could use some more heat. Oh well nothing that some hot sauce can't fix. The fries are on point, think they're the battered kind, where it's flaky and crispy on the outside. Today I had the Mini Burgers($1 each), 3 of 'em. One Meatball, One Pulled Pork and 1 Cheeseburger. Meatball mini: Meh... OK. Cheeseburger mini: No thanks. Pulled Pork mini: WINNER WINNER! should have gotten 3 of those. I had lunch here a few weeks back and got the Pork Medallions with steamed veggies and mashed potatoes. The Pork was OK and so were the veggies but, the mashed potatoes... NOT a fan. They were probably the "instant" kind which isn't terrible but, they could have done 'em up a little bit better or added some salt and butter to the mix. They have a small selection of craft beers, nothing outrageous. Enough to keep you happy. I'll come back here for lunch, maybe one night I'll hit it up for a night out after work too. read more

Not a big fan of the good here. Marginal at best. That being said had a sample of the irish nachos. I must say not bad. Would order them again. Beer is cold though and they have my favorite Stella on tap. read more

Generally a good place with bad service. First weekend of lent and waiting longer for your refill of the all you can eat fish then the original order. Unless you're good with the original order I wouldn't suggest going there. read more

This place is horrible no lemonade no pineapple juice no frozen drinks no margaritas .. food came out soggy and wet even the waitress knew something wasn't right, after waiting almost 45 minutes... Service extremely unacceptable. Don't waste your time or money here read more

Went in here and watch some of the NBA All-Star weekend. I ordered a half pound burger with fries and both were absolutely delicious and very filling. My boyfriend ended up ordering the sampler platter which was also very delicious. We had a Bob Marley's Long Island tea which was six dollars and was very strong with a lot of alcohol. read more

"Loyal regulars" A business that's run very very badly, we've been for at 10 years and have been supportive and loyal during covid by ordering take out a couple times a week ....we were told we couldn't order food from the kitchen on a Sunday at 3:30 with all our family already seated at a table, I guess when they book a party from people who don't frequent their Establishment they come first and tell you to hit the road ! Bad move read more

Awful service, got half my wings-told the "friers were busy and the other half would be out soon".....wanted an ice water, could not find server. Went to bar and they were in no hurry to ask what I needed. Won't be going back. read more

Went there for a pre birthday celebration for my daughter. I asked for an Oliver's Bahama Mama. It was the worst drink I have ever tasted, almost like it was straight Amaretto. When I told the waitress the drink wasn't good, she could have killed me with the look on her face. My daughter and husband had a 312 IPA beer and both of their glasses had black stuff floating in the bottom of the glass. We brought this to the attention to the same waitress and she said it was probably from the tap. Soooooo what she was saying is that they don't clean the taps and it was mold that was in their glasses? DISGUSTING! See ya Oliver's, you lost our business! read more

They are pretty busy on game nights but theres no exuse for finding hair in my food. Disgusting. Besides no one is greeting you at the front door and i had to look for a waiter. They have not been even apologetic about the hair in food. And tell me too look for the hair iso they can show it to the cook. Also they were trying to make me pay for the food i took 1 bite of. Terrible service and food read more

Never ordering from Outback Steakhouse again or using Uber Eats. I ordered a full dinner tonight but the only thing delivered were the 2 side dishes and a piece of bread. The driver was unable to help, Outback told me it was an Uber Eats issue. Uber Eats gave me a small credit for the main dish but I was still charged $38.60 because the service and delivery charges were based on the full order. Customer Service "didn't have the tools" to make an adjustment or to send a replacement. Not dumb enough to get anything from Outback or Uber in the future. They didn't even try to make it right. read more

There's A Tear In My Beer! Oliver's Bar & Grill is your better than average, neighborhood bar & grill located in Oak Forest, IL, a SW burb o'Chicago. It's serves up plenty o'cold beer & drinks for a reasonable price & offers your standard bar-type food of sammies, pizza, apps & burgers. I can vouch that the mozz stix are very good. They're big, plank-like, mozz-stuffed stix that are served pipin' hot with a side o'marinara & are oh so friggin' tasty!  The inside of Oliver's is basic but well-maintained, clean & spacious with lotsa tables & seating. The bar is big & wraps around in a circle with flat-screen TVs all around the bar & restaurant great for watchin' games. There's music always playin' in the background too or you can be DJ, it's got TouchTunes! Got game? In the summer you can play bags outside too. The bar tenders & staff are all friendly & attentive too, and the drinks & food are served in a timely manner. The crowd at Oliver's is usually a mixed bag: could be lotsa college-aged kids, middle-aged divorcees, 30-somethings, the neighborhood regulars, business people or random people like yours truly, ya just never know! But anyone will feel welcome at Oliver's! Finally, mega kudos to Oliver's for being the only bar around the SW burbs that I know of that's open on all major holidays when family gatherings induce heavy post-traumatic drinking lol! So if you're lookin' for a fancy meal & drinks keep drivin' downtown, but if it's been a shitty day & ya don't feel like drivin' into the City, I'd recommend stoppin' in at Oliver's for a few cold ones & some good bar food or grabbin' one last call for alcohol on your way back from the City. Oliver's isn't gonna dazzle ya with a clubby or hipster, city scene but it's good enough to turn your frown upside down! And who knows on a straight, Tequila-kinda night, ya might just get lucky & have free, front row seats to a random bar brawl, after all it is Oak Forest! read more
