Never had to wait long to order a drink and server continued to check in with us and they were all very sweet. They have some gaming machines if that's your thing. We'll def be back!!

Their drinks are very overpriced, and the crowd is not friendly sometimes downright hostile regulars if you dare to sit at the bar in a seat they feel is reserved for one of their after work buddies. Later crowd is just what you're looking for if you need the f-bomb dropped three times in every sentence - loudly. Every once in awhile it's a great place, but mostly it's just frustrating. When the food is good the place is spot on...roll the dice, I guess.

We've been to Sebastian's Ale House before, but this was our first time bringing our toddler along…read more Turns out, it works just as well for family time as it does when you're just there for the food and drinks. Their beer and drink selection has always been a plus for me, but since I'm currently on a healthier eating kick, I really appreciated having plenty of lighter options to choose from. And you can turn any salad into a wrap. They also have a great kids menu, and our toddler's meal happened to be free that day. A free toddler meal? Say less. Our waitress was kind and very attentive and honestly we've never had an issue with service here. It's also a great stop after spending the day at Brookfield Zoo. Good food, plenty of drinks for the adults, options for the little ones, and everyone leaves happy.

That is the star studded Gem of this place because it fits my wife's dietary needs. The menu itself is pretty pricey though if you come here on certain days where there's always a special it can make up for it so I would schedule your time coming here by studying the specials of the day. This place has a lot of TVs and is very interactive by having a own kids area. If dining inside isn't your forte, they have a dining area outside. They even brought a TV outside for one guest so they could see the FIFA game. They have a back area by the bathroom where they have their video gaming and it really isn't much to check out. Staff takes too long to come by and service their guests even if it's only at half capacity. Parking wasn't an issue too. I also feel like this is the only place worth checking out in this little downtown.

Phil's is right at the Brookfield stop on the BNSF Metra line. After getting off the train and…read morebefore going to Irish Times for Friday night Fish Fry, we'll stop at Phil's for cheap drinks to get a buzz on and play a couple of games of pool. It's a great way to end a hard week at work. Phil's is pretty big, a typical no-frills strip mall suburban bar. I've never eaten at Phil's, but they have standard bar fare and I must say that the pizza looks awesome. But again, I haven't eaten there (yet). And, by cheap drinks, at least the last time I was there last fall, a Jameson served neat was $4 and a generous pour! Needless to say, I was good 'n buzzed just in time for the fish fry across the street!

Along the way back I felt like stopping at a local bar. It was a good choice. This is a pretty chill place. Has a pretty spacious interior. There's a few slots and plenty of TVs. Prices are good. They always have a few specials. Domestic beers were on special that night. It was $3 a bottle, and they had some other specials. Food is about what you expect. There's burgers, and shareables like the Pretzel. It's $8 for a big ass. The bread soaks up alcohol, so you can hang out here longer and knock back a few more. Good local hangout with better than expected food. It's a nice place if getting back from the zoo and looking for cheaper alternatives to the food they have. The beer is the main thing but try some food including those big ass pretzels.

Man, I'm SO mad someone got to review this gem before me. 3 Stars!? C'mon. This mo-fo is a…read morefiver. Be forewarned, I use the word "gem" loosely. The previous poster was right, Joe's Saloon is on 47th Street just west of Plainfield. If you're coming from 1st Avenue, it's about a Mile west. I like this bar because of the odd, undeliberate charm, cheap drinks (ahem dollar Schlitz all day everyday), decent jukebox (used to be awesome before they went digital... Patsy Cline awesome), and the infamous Dollar Mystery Shots. Your choice of A, B, and sometimes C, depending on what stock the owner, Ellen, thinks they need to get rid of. Bartenders are laid-back and can put a drink to a face -- I rolled in after not being there for 6 months and they had it poured before I could say hi. The late-great Joe is adorned on a small canvas above the windows and REAL!? wood paneling on the east wall. Soft orangish-red neon illuminates most of the saloon, glowing up from behind wood molding - Not an ideal lighting plan, but almost accidentally the PERFECT lighting level. The bar isn't really a "kept secret" at all -- housed in a stand-alone building with all-season Christmas lights framing the peaked roof, it's not that hard to spot. That said, it owes a lot of its odd mix of clientele to it's location. People that roll into Joe's aren't there on accident. The south side of the street is a vast empty expanse that used to be a massive train depot for the nearby quarry, and the north side of the street is an industrial/9-to-5 business strip where even the liquor store closes early. Now that I've played the alcoholic sociologist, lemmie posit that the out-of-the-way-ness of the bar directly contributes to what kind of people come through the door -- people that specifically left the house to be at Joe's. Aside from College Break overspill (Easter, Spring Break, Winter Break), there's always a place to sit and rarely an loudmouth over-served coed to scowl at. This place can be blue collar, no collar, and popped collar at different times of the day (and if a sporting event is on). There's live music for a cover sometimes, but nothing too consistent. There's a terrific Quizzo once a month, though the questions skew towards the 40-something locals that attend and run the quiz. (One standard category is called "Where are you in the Western Suburbs", another was "Local TV News Anchors".) But, you're there for the experience anyway, so, whatev. While other locals are living past glories with their gym teachers at Kenny's, avoiding eye-contact with old flames at Palmer's or packing it in at local cavern-turned-Irish-bar Brixie's, what filters through to Joe's are the low-key neighborhood joes of all ages looking to sit back, drink, play Meatloaf on the jukebox and maybe play a round or two of Word Dojo.
