    Guinness

    Shannon's is a great local spot for a beer. Food is always great and the staff is always friendly. Great time if you go on St. Patrick's Day! The outside back patio is perfect too, if the weather's nice.

    We came on a Friday night and had a great experience! It wasn't super busy and we had no problem being seated. Our server was very friendly. We both had the corned beef and cabbage and were very pleased! Can't say enough good things about the horseradish especially. Topped off our night with a chocolate martini for dessert and it was the perfect choice. We will definitely come back! It seems like a great bar for both a bite to eat or a night of drinking.

    This is one of the worse pubs I've been to. The food is a bit lacking, seats are uncomfortable, place is too cramped, and the drinks are expensive. Quality- I tried the Irish sausage and cauliflower soup. The soup was actually not bad. I liked the flavor and crackers that went with it. I can taste the cauliflower chunks in the thick broth. It worked really well as a broccoli dipping sauce. The sausage was really dry. No moisture whatsoever. The beans tasted like it was from a can. The mashed potatoes were ok. Quantity- an ok amount came out for the price. I would have liked more soup for 6 bucks. Atmosphere- the few times I went there, it wasn't too crowded but there were always obnoxious people at the bar. One woman cackles like a witch nonstop and it was not a very pleasant meal. The tables are also very small and the music is too loud for dinner. Service- in the past, staff here can be a bit pushy trying to get you to buy more. But this past time I was here the waitress was one of the best I've had. Quantity-

    Great food and service and plenty of parking. Music was too loud and we had to yell just to place orders.

    $5 Wednesday burger.

    Food is very good and the staff is friendly. But the service is ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE. :45 minutes to take our table orders. Then another:40 minutes until our plates arrived. Guys...you can do better.

    Ruben rolls

    Cute pub in downtown Glen Ellyn. Came in for lunch and ate like it was dinner. Very dim lighting with tvs all over. Appetizer- Ruben rolls: crispy and not too heavy. Like how thin sliced the corn beef was. I am a huge fan of sauerkraut so I wished there was more throughout. My gf is not a huge fan kraut so she was ok with the amount. Only time I like swiss cheese is with my Rubens. I feel you should always choose it wisely because it helps tie a ruben together. With that being said....the swiss flavor was barely there. Thousand Island was good, thank goodness because it is the key component. Meal- Pub Club and champ: Yum yum. Ham, real turkey (not lunch meat), lettuce, tomatoes, mayo, American cheese, comes with swiss but I subbed for Mozzarella. Toasted and warm. Champ is mashed potatoes, scallions, milk, butter....sounds so good but these ones were quite bland and dry. Chicken Cottage Pie : My gf and I love chicken pot pies so we had to give this a try and we are glad we did. Warm, filling, and hearty dish of joy. Pasty dough on bottom, stuffed, than topped with mashed potatoes and parmesan. Kids Meal: Hamburger with steak fries. Dairy free. My daughter liked it. Juicy and on a warmed bun.

    First time visit and we were quite pleased. The food was great and the live music on the patio was the best. Jen the owner was very welcoming as well.

    Service was great but food was mediocre. Patio was nice since it was not too busy. Drink options are limited besides beer.

    I suggest the corned beef burger, which is a unique burger made of blended ground and corned beef.

Heard that before, Rob. McNally's is cute and all but nothing like the greats. It has a comfy cozy atmosphere that, initially, I found relaxing. Then the server showed-up with a nasty disposition and the patience of a child. After waiting entirely too long for a check-up, I ended up asking the bartender for a refill. How hard is it to just grab the server and tell her to add a drink to our tab? No can do. I was dismissed, very short and coarsely, and told to order it through my waitress. The saving grace was their menu and quality of food. The scotch egg, shepherd's pie boxty and the Guinness chocolate mousse were spot on. I had a bite of their bangers and mash and easily could order that, too. I didn't handle the bill but I can tell you the place is pricey and there's not enough here to justify it. Obviously, we didn't say a thing to the good doctor but this place is mediocre at best. 02/26
