Cute spot of girlfriend took me to when we visited. The service and space were awesome! The food was pretty good too. This will be a spot I come back to when I visit again! Since I'm not local, I didn't understand what's going on with their patio, but I'm sad it was shut down! Hopefully they can get it back open! read more

Started frequenting this bar a couple months ago and now a group of us come most Wednesdays for trivia. It's usually pretty full, but the service is fantastic. We are always checked on often. Our favorite appetizers are the wings, mozzarella sticks and jalapeño poppers. We didn't love the nachos or the poutine. We felt both were a bit low on toppings. The burgers, fish and chips and shepherds pie are fantastic. The pizza is a bit soggy but still enjoyable. Good selection of beers. They do have some outdoor seating and an ATM available inside. read more

Fun time at trivia. Good beer list. Good service. Good ambiance. Fish and chips unfortunately came out cold and mushy. Staff said we could sit outside for trivia, but then in the middle of the game closed all the windows effectively shutting us out of the game and then got weird with us when we asked to keep just one open so we could hear the questions. We had run up quite a tab with beers, apps, and entrees. This wasn't an unreasonable request. Maybe better luck next time. read more

The interior décor is great; definitely feels like a classic, cozy neighborhood Irish pub. Many TVs make for a good sports bar atmosphere as well. The food is decent quality and reasonably priced; definitely not in any running for best food in Chicago, but it's consistently good. I wouldn't recommend any of the mac options though; for being a place that has so many mac options, the several I've tried have all been extremely bland. Service is occasionally hit or miss, but I'm often there for a game, so time hasn't been an issue. I'd definitely go back read more

$11 is what a Guinness cost on tap! We went for the Bears game on a Sunday afternoon. We ordered four Guinness' and the bill came out to $51 plus tip. We asked the bartender and server about the cost and they said that's the price every day. There aren't prices on the drinks menu - $11+ for a mass market draft beer is absurd. read more

I've tried this place a few times because the location is convenient and the servers are nice. But the food is really just bad. The burgers, which they claim are "fresh from the local butcher" are pretty much flavorless - it's no wonder that they pile toppings on them. The pizza is an abomination that should be removed from the menu. The fish and chips, allegedly made with Guinness, is fine. If you can handle the gaudy decor and are in the area and want a beer, this place is fine. But really why? There are plenty of other better options within a couple of blocks in every direction. read more

Good ass drinks and grub. It's not strictly an Irish pub because the menu has some American stuff but it certainly feels and looks like it. The Irish Nobleman is a great place for watching a game or a match. Also of course it's crazy for the Irish holidays. The crazy guys like to hit this place hard and leave chaos in their wakes. Beer and liquor is the main thing here. If you really want something to eat, it's not too bad for grub at an Irish pub. There's much worse. Of course there's more than Jameson. When it's hot, why not cool off with a Slushie? It's $5 as is. They also can add alcohol for a price. As for the food, I haven't found that much good. The thing I got the last time was the Chips And Salsa. It's $6 for a moderate amount. The chips actually weren't greasy, and the salsa had a mild spice. Fun times to be had. It often has something going on. Trivia night is one of the favorites here, usually on Wednesdays. read more

I met up with some friends here this past weekend to watch a game and had a good time. The only down side of things is that they were out of a few drink selections that we asked for which was a bummer. However our waitress was very thoughtful and offered a few other selections that were similar to what we were looking for. Definitely didn't disappoint. I don't remember her name, she had red highlights. We appreciate her help and look forward to stopping in again. read more

Reviews seem to be either 5 start or 1 star. I sorta get it. Definitely a neighborhood bar feel. Lots of regulars, lots of "everyone knows your name" type vibe (millennials, that a Cheers reference). Very Chicago. Place filled up super quick. 715pm, I was one of 4 people in the place...by 745 there wasnt an open table or bar stool. Lots of beers on the menu (draft and bottle/can) We enjoyed Guinness...which came in a room temp glass as God intended. Menu was pretty substantial; tavern grub (mac and cheese + burgers) but offered specials (chicken cous cous). The most disappointing part was the service. I'm not sure if our server was new (he seemed to be confused with menu items...we had to repeat and point with each item). Service was also pretty slow. Maybe it's because we were the only table he had in the main bar space and we were in the corner...? The burger (I ordered the western burger with a side salad) and my husband got the Leprechaun Mac and Cheese. Both meals were excellent. I would post a pic, but the lighting is super green and we were right next to the glow of Golden Tee. Would totally venture here again, but probs not on a Friday night. read more

I had my 30th birthday party at the Irish Nobleman this past weekend and had an absolute blast! This was the perfect place for an event like that. We got the side section of the bar all to ourself and had 2 bartenders coming around taking drink orders from everyone for around 5.5(!!) hours! At its peak we had around 35/40 people there having a fantastic time. The addition of touch tunes allowed everyone to play the music they wanted to hear throughout the entire night. It was so much fun! Shawn was our bartender and he was fantastic! He was working hard taking drink orders from everyone the whole time and didn't slow down once. He even brought over a Modelo with a birthday candle on it which was awesome! Thank you Shawn for making the event run so smoothly! I highly recommend having an event at the Irish Nobleman! I couldn't have asked for a more perfect night! read more

Came to the Irish Nobleman Pub during the latest bout of below freezing temps in Chicago mid-polar-vortex. First, we were just so happy they were even open! We were getting a little stir crazy, so we walked over. Shawn greeted us at the door and since it was so cold he seated us in front of the cozy fireplace the rest of our time here was excellent. Shawn read us the specials, let us know his recommendations, and they were spot on! He stopped over plenty of times to make sure we had absolutely everything we needed and was so lovely to chat with. The pub is such a cornerstone of the neighborhood, and people like Shawn and the wonderful food will keep us coming back for years to come. read more

I really like this neighborhood vibe. First off, a perfect casual date spot & here is why. I love beer, and my GF doesn't. However, there is an ice cream window where she got her dessert as I got more beer!! I came on a Wednesday evening (7/28/2021) thinking trivia is back, but sadly it wasn't. So I stayed anyway. You order everything through your phone. Also, service kind of slow, but there was only 1 server at the time. Anyways, everything a la carte, so I opted out of fries with my burger, but man, sometimes the best food is found at the local mom/pop joints! I think Au Cheval is overrated, and my favorite burger ever was at Lockdown before they shut down. These meat sandwiches were the closest to my burger at Lockdown. Holy cow they were good. We ordered the Wisco, where you can literally use the cheese melt off with the thousand island dressing, and the Western, that was topped with 3 or 4 onion rings. My opinion the Wisco was wildly better. Holy cow! No fries were needed. Also, the fish n chips WERE huge! For the price you pay, this was the largest serving of fish n chips I have seen...even compared to Florida. Overall, they have a large outdoor section that extended into the street. The place is also VERY pet friendly- order your dog a doggie cone during this humid summer!! I will be back. A fun joint for a summer hang. 7/10 IG: carlo_hiit_the_town read more

What made it worse was that she immediately brought a group over to take our table, and even they were apologizing to us because they seemed uncomfortable with how it was handled. I've worked in bars and restaurants myself, so I completely understand needing to manage space, but there's a way to do it respectfully, and this wasn't it. Unfortunately, this experience left a bad impression, and despite having been here multiple times before, I won't be returning.

We were around the corner at the Aloft during our weekend stay. Ended up at pub thrice during our…read morestay. Other reviewers are spot on about friendly staff, nice atmosphere, clean restrooms, noise not too overwhelming, lots of televisions to catch a game. We had the Buffalo Chicken Deviled Eggs every time we went. The idea doesn't make sense - but they were soooo good! We ordered the Fish & Chips on our first visit. We were not expecting to actually get potato chips. Didn't realize until later they have french fries here, but they decided to give us potato chips. Who serves potato chips as a default with Fish & Chips? Is this a Midwest thing? Each visit, they were out of tall boy PBRs. Guess they don't restock on holiday weekends. But they did have Old Style, so no harm.

I was so excited that I was the 1st person in this morning. The bartender, Lisa was amazing. Just a quick PSA, before posting a picture of someone, please ask before posting! If you get a chance, please ask for her! Having read a previous review, I knew I had to have the Ruben! As you can see, it's piled high with corned beef! The fries were delicious! Trust me. There were other options but if you're a true Ruben fan, you'll order it whenever you get a chance. Total success! If you never heard of Man Vs. Food, one you missed a great show. The filmed an episode here! They knew what they were doing filming here! The staff is fantastic! The atmosphere was perfect! Not too loud which helps with the bar bantering. Stick a pin in this place and experience this place!

We went in to the lobby and all we saw was a lobby bar so we decided to go up the steps to the second floor. The second floor looked like it was an empty event space. We saw saloon style doors and pushed them open and there was fox bar! I didn't realize it was a speakeasy. The vibe in there felt as if I was back in the 70's. They had a $12 bartenders choice cocktail which was a mint julep. It tasted great, not too sweet like other ones I've had.

Nice cold draft beer is the highlight of this spot. Restaurant is very dark with super loud music. Lots of TVs throughout. Plenty of seating. Big space. Service was a bit overwhelmed.

Not sure if they were just trying to spread people out or what. Oh well. We just sat at the bar. Lots of drinks, way too many drinks, were consumed. Food was pretty good. I enjoyed my French onion soup, while another in my group liked his tomato basil soup. Myself and another both had the corned beef sandwich at the recommendation of another at the bar. The meat was good, but even with the recommendation to get it grilled, the thick bread was too much, and the bread was rather dry. Waffle fries were a little too flimsy for me. The other in our group had a salad with salmon on top. It looked overdone to me, but he didn't complain. Service at the bar was friendly and there for the most part when we needed it. Great place to watch a national championship game.
