    Picture from the 3rd floor of the private party room looking down to the 2nd floor private party room.

    On Friday 5/22/26 we had a party upstairs at Red Barn to celebrate my daughter's graduation from graduate school. Dawn helped us get everything organized and was awesome to work with. The food was great from their chef DJ. Our guest gave us a ton of compliments on the dinner and drinks for 44 people. The bar service was perfect from Brandon! Start to finish it was a perfect place to host a private party! Thank you!

    Epic Nachos! They are now my favorite in the area! Kudos!

    Greetings! This review will celebrate an unexpected find right under my nose: The Red Barn Restaurant and Brewery. It has been several years since I crossed the threshold, but Tuesday night Music Trivia and Music Bingo had me there two weeks in a row! The unexpected HIT was the Red Barn BBQ Nachos. That's our favorite snack to share and one order is great for two! The whole plate is perfectly crafted. Layers of chips, killer pulled pork, cheese sauce and other great, fresh fixings were on point! Special shout out to the Red Barn BBQ sauce itself: Tangy, with a little zip, light body, and not overpowering...perfect accompaniment for the flavor medley found on great nachos. I washed it down with two quality Guinness pints...at $6 each, a nice price to pay these days! Honorable mention to the cheese curds I sampled...I'd order those, too, but I can't get past the nachos! Other menu items heading to tables near me look equally tempting...If they're anything like the nachos, I bet the plates taste as good as they look. Bathrooms were a solid acceptable and the whole place is clean and has a great vibe! Service was attentive and timed food and drink runs quite well both nights. Props to the owners for bringing a great local hang to the Mt. Prospect area...with summer on the horizon, pints on the patio sound great! I'll be back...and next time we're trying the pizza, too! Until next time...tk

    Baked beans

    First time here. Really great casual and fun ambiance. We came for dinner rather than drinks. The cheese curds were an excellent appetizer. Our burger, patty melt and sliders were good. The baked beans were more smokey flavored than bbq flavor. Our server was very good. We had everything we needed when we needed it. I recommend The Red Barn.

    Nachos with all the trimmings with Sloppy Joe sweet & spicy on top.... Lots to eat!

    The atmosphere was perfect for a drink and appetizers! Start with an old-fashioned for my husband and a bloody Mary as you can see. Ordered mango habanero, wings, and nachos with sloppy Joe beef... believe it or not on top; very sweet a little spicy absolutely the way to go for an incredible mountain of food!

    Island hopper

    We were here last night to celebrate some birthdays. Great food and awesome drinks. I especially enjoyed the empanadas. I tried the poblano and cheese, buffalo chicken and Reuben ones. All we're tasty, but the buffalo chicken was my favorite of the three. I also really recommend the island hopper, it was delicious. Service was great as well and I think we all enjoyed the live music too. We'll definitely come back even if it's a drive for us.

    Sloppy Joe Sliders

    The food was typical bar food. Nachos and sloppy Joe were good. Fried pickles weren't great. Not sure if it was the fryer oil or breaded too heavily. Would love to try this place again for live music. Server was great and attentive.

    Another wonderful experience! We sat at the bar on a Sunday and experienced excellent service from Brandon, who was clearly wearing many hats this day! He was so attentive and friendly and our Margarita pizza was delicious! Highly recommend The Red Barn - especially when Brandon is working!!!!

They also have their own beer selection that they brew - I got to try some of them - pretty tasty! I enjoyed the Hush Money IPA- pretty good, not too heavy or bitter , a very easy drinking IPA.

I also tried their double burger - it was good, the food is kind of pricey but it was tasty, and they do have some daily specials.

After a waitress went in and out 2x each, we asked her not to use it - and she argued with us. In the mean time, my gf ordered a spicy margarita which was supposed to come with a Tajin rim. It came with salt instead. The bartender didn't want to re-make the drink, so he poured it in another glass, making it very salty. When he had to remake it, he still didn't put the Tajin rim on it. Lastly, the manager/owner walked in the door that staff isn't supposed to use. We asked him about it and he said 'yeah, they don't listen to me when I tell them not to use it' - well - you're setting the example there.

    Happy New Year 2026! My first review of this year. Cheers!…read more Church Street is a spacious, but intimate feeling brewery with a relaxed vibe, tucked away in an Industrial area of Itasca. The on-site parking lot is quite small, but other business lots and street parking is available nearby, especially during events. I tried a sample of their light pilsner and purchased a 12 ounce prickly pear sour. It had a unique flavor to it and wasn't too tart or sour, as I find some to be. I would like to return and try the cranberry sour and German, dry pilsner. Perhaps after "Dry January!" (Hello Mocktails). I did not order any food but I do plan to return and would like to try some of their menu items. I enjoyed sitting at the bar with others and our server was delightful. I have also had their wheat beers which are tasty. Inside the brewery there is a cozy feel and the singing cook in the kitchen was fun to listen to, as he had a nice voice. Check out their fun fan merch for sale too. Happy "Brew Year" all!

The beers were excellent, and the food looked and smelled so good that we vowed to come back! We've been back twice now and loved it each time! You can't go wrong with their beers! Their flagships are solid and they always have a healthy number of experimental brews. Best of all the worlds! This time we both got IPAS and loved them all: Trail Trip, West Coast Pixel, and Swells! Trail Trip was my favorite because I prefer non-hazy. For dinner I got the double-dipped fried chicken sandwich with a side of fries. YUM! Bursting with flavor and deliciousness! The spicy gochujang sauce is divine! And super filling! My husband did the OG Burger, Fries, and 10 oz beer for $15 Monday/Tuesday deal. He loved the food, drink, and the deal! The space is so clean, open, and inviting. The front dinning area is spacious enough with plenty of seating and the bar, but there is also a fantastic outdoor space. The servers will all friendly, helpful, and professional. Things can move a little slowly, but it is worth the wait! On busy weekend nights, they do have online reservations, so that can be a good way to secure a spot! Next time we are in Elmhurst, we will definitely be back. We love Phase 3!
