    Chicken bites
    Han H.

    Love this place: -open late -TVs all around for sports viewing -warm pub feel Great root beer on tap!! GET THE BROCCOLI. My friend recommended it and it's so delish! Happy hour at 10pm. Unfortunately the chicken bites suck. They were all dough, extra salty, and a tad bit too spicy. Our waitstaff Vaughn was the best!!

    Totchos
    Rose E.

    Came here randomly on a Sunday and ended up loving the small-town vibe of the place. There were lots of locals, good sports games on their TVs, and good beer and food options. The place is huge and has a few floors, but it feels like a legit sports bar. Loved the root beer on tap :) We ordered Totchos - these were surprisingly filling, even though they're meant to be a shareable appetizer, I highly recommend them! Westy Classic - this was bomb, the ghost pepper cheese provided just enough kick Had a few beers, their stout selection was good if you're into those. The service was excellent, the bartenders and servers were super interactive they chatted it up with everyone that walked in. I can see why there's regulars, it was a fun time.

    Really enjoyed my lunch at The Westy for my first visit. Haley was very friendly and greeted me right away. I saw on the menu there was an "Angry Bird" wrap, however I am not a wrap guy. Haley said they were happy to make it into a sandwich for me. The feel here is that of a sports bar and at the time I was there, not very noisy at all. My sandwich was incredible, and I can't wait to go back again.

    Awesome food and equally awesome staff. Bring back the bulgogi spring rolls!! Wings are great. Watch out for the cheesecake spring rolls!! They are delicious AF!!

    Hubby and I went for some good happy hour (2-5pm) snacks and drinks and we were not disappointed. We had the chicken and mini waffles, steak bites, and Mexican corn cheese. All were delicious! The service was fast and friendly too. We'll definitely be back to try the rest of their menu. I forgot to take pictures of the food, but I got their most recent (4/2025) menu. As for the venue itself, it's a bit of a small entry, but opens up to another level in the back. Like any sports bar, there's TVs everywhere, but they're not loud, which I appreciated. They have a full bar as well with a good selection of cocktails and beer. It's a nice-sized place with a very local and welcoming feel.

    That was the worst salad EVER. The corn dip was good, the chips were good, the brisket grilled cheese was good, but the salad was awful.

    Stopped in for a pint and some food to catch some sports on Root TV that we can't watch at home. The bar selection is fantastic and the food is flavorful and well put together. We were served by Becky and felt like we were a bother to her during our visit. Her demeanor was short, impatient and borderline rude. We are locals and we're very excited d to make this joint our regular go-to spot. Sadly, we were off-put by cold, dismissive service. Pros: Excellent, flavorful food. Great varieties of beverages. Local sports on multiple tvs. Cons: service, service, service. Please talk to Becky. She seems very comfortable and didn't seem interested in developing new regulars. (Side note: it was pretty dead and there was plenty of time to do a better job). She spent more time talking to some other Westy employee that was off the clock than us. Edit: The owner reached out and shared some thoughts with me and I am very appreciative of his response. I also realized that a negative experience in service didn't warrant a condemnation of entire experience.

    We came here after going to Lincoln Park, which was only a 5 min drive away. Since it was sorta warm and we still had sunlight, we opted for the patio vs. being inside. You scan a QR code on the table (which is unique for your table), order, and pay all on the phone. It was pretty convenient for us as diners and probably less work for the workers to not need to constantly check on us. The con to this though was there was very limited service. They just bring out the orders but there was no check-in on if we needed anything throughout service. No water was given. We had to go in to ask for a to-go box. My boyfriend accidentally dropped his fork on the ground and I thought no way is this fork getting replaced. This IS a sports bar though and we were outside so unsure if things are different indoors. We ordered two burgers (mine was a regular cheeseburger w onions, lettuce, tomato, and my boyfriend's had bacon and ghost pepper cheese), and the Irish nachos and an alcoholic hibiscus lemonade. The burgers came with either a salad or tots for the side. The Irish nachos had super crunchy waffle fries which I enjoyed. The guac on top was average. The meat patties were thick at 1/3 pound which I liked, though I found it to be a little dry. I think the ghost pepper cheese in my boyfriend's burger really elevated the burger, though it was quite spicy. Overall, not bad. I'd maybe come back if I was in the area.

    This place has an upstairs kitchen and a bar downstairs creating a kinda nice division between the dining and drinking area. I had my usual hot honey chicken yesterday. I preferred it when they used dark meat chicken for this sandwich. Now that they use chicken breast, I find it less flavorful ( I don't think the meat was seasoned at all ), and not as tender. Still good, but I will have to find my next favorite item here's at Westy's. I enjoy coming here for the lively vibe at night, and there is plenty of street parking.

    Brontosaurus wings. So delicious!!!

It was cool that they provided a digital menu on the table for us to order from. We were also able to pick the exact table we wanted (with a 5-minute wait), not too bad. The server was so busy that she couldn't attend to us much, but she was kind enough to bring us beer-tasting options a few times. I'm a big Porter/Stout fan, and they had a good selection of these, which surprised me. We'll be back to try more beers and a few more items on their menu that looked interesting. The food was pretty tasty, we were surprised by the quality, as it had been a while since we'd been to a Yard House. We'll be back for sure.

The seasonal veg was brussells sprouts which could have been roasted a bit more to crispy for me but that's a personal preference. This is way more satisfying than the food you'd get at your typical local bar. I've been to The Bridge a half dozen times and every time has delivered. Solid food. Good service. Great outdoor patio. Neighborhood vibes - the type of place where the bartenders know and recognize the locals, and the locals are regulars. I like that. It's a welcoming place, casual, laid back, and though I haven't been there during too many sports games, even when it's on, it doesn't seem to get too rowdy. Brunch is a must do, with options like the Benny flight. Definitely one of the less known brunch spots in my opinion, but even so, can still get busy so go early. Only reason I've done 4 stars is I've had a few times where service was a little slow. Would absolutely return again and again and have recommended to many friends. Keep up the great work team, may you be successful for many years to come.

I made a reservation ahead of time, but when we got there around 8 pm we realized we probably didn't need one because it was seat yourself and still pretty open. No complaints though, it made it easy to grab a table and settle in. The vibe was cool. Definitely a sports bar feel with TVs around, and as the night went on the DJ started getting set up which I can imagine makes it a fun spot on a Friday night for people meeting up after work or hanging out with friends. We decided to share a few things so we could try a little bit of everything. We ordered the catfish bites, lemon pepper wings, garlic parmesan wings, and macaroni and cheese. I'll start with the positives because the service was great. Everyone we interacted with was friendly and helpful, which always makes a difference. Food-wise, it just didn't totally hit for me. The catfish bites had a really tasty batter, but the texture threw me off a little. I personally like my catfish cooked a little harder, and these were a bit soft for my liking. The lemon pepper wings were a little too salty for me, and the wings themselves weren't cooked quite the way I like them. I tend to like my wings cooked a little harder, so these felt a bit soft and bulky to me (if that makes sense). The garlic parmesan wings were okay flavor-wise, but still similar in texture. The macaroni and cheese was okay. Nothing bad, just pretty standard. The menu itself has a good mix of comfort food and bar favorites like chicken and waffles, shrimp & grits, burger & fries....so there are definitely options to try. Overall, the service were great, the vibe was cool and I can definitely see this being a fun spot once the DJ gets going and the place fills up. The food just didn't quite land for me personally this time. I gave it 3 stars, but if Yelp allowed half stars it would probably be closer to a 3.5 for me. I'd still be open to coming back and trying a few other things on the menu.
