This place is your typical casual bar feel with various screens and a variety of table options available. The service is pretty great though the space is a bit small and limited (our big group required multiple tables being combined). Food selection is pretty typical, I ordered the fish and chips which this place apparently has a good reputation for. Overall the pricing felt steep for the amount of food that you got (wasn't entirely full from the meal) but still of decent quality that you'd expect from your local bar. I think overall this is a nice place to be at if you want a drink with food options basically being in line with other establishments in the area. read more

Tuman's Tap and Grill - Fish and chips - Pubs Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Literally my favorite place in the neighborhood for an easy and DELICIOUS meal. We are in once a week. Feels like home. Buffalo chicken sandwich is UNREALLL. Love that it's bar food but all homemade. Love that they always have natural wines. Parents and friends love it, which is a bonus. My ONLY beef is they took the mango marg off the menu and it's not coming back which was my favorite cocktail there. I am heartbroken!! read more

This place is definitely a Ukrainian Village vibe. Very cute place for a beer, lunch or dinner. During the summer you can sit outside, seating yourself where you want. They allow kids outside and inside, and there are always plenty of kids here. I have come here many times, they have great Amish Chicken tenders, good burgers, during Oktoberfest they had a great menu highlighting German cuisine and extra large beers. They have a great southwest style salad and adding shrimp is a great option! They have great beer, better service, good hot sauce, and a nice vibe. read more

I came here for dinner with family and sat outside at a 4-person table. I ordered the Classic burger and added avocado and grilled onions and it was delicious. The fries they serve with the burger were great. The grilled broccoli was also delicious served with a red humus. I recommend this bar for a great hamburger if you're in the area and suddenly hungry. read more

One of my sister's neighborhood favorites - was pretty good! The Buffalo Chicken Sandwich was great - it was shredded instead of a classic chicken breast-style sandwich, which was fun and unique - and honestly made it easier to eat. Fries were just fries, but appreciate that it came with the sammie. Easy and relaxing choice for takeout on a night we needed it! read more

Wings, excellent and meaty. Don't change your supplier. Cuban was reported by my son to be very tasty. Grilled cheese qnd soup reported by the wife to be excellent. Don't get me started on the fantastic beer list. Awesome. Philly says you're doing a great job! Thanks! read more

After hearing lots of great things from friends, I FINALLY made it to Tuman's and sat on the patio with my husband and dog for brunch. Service was great! Our server was extra sweet and patient with our dog who dramatically started crying when the server stopped petting her. Drinks - my husband got a half liter of one of their marzens and he enjoyed it. - I loved my blackberry mimosa - we also shared a delicious mango Margarita Food: B.A.L.T. - this was a BLT that included avocado. It was super tasty and I loved the her aioli. The fries were great too. Steak & eggs - This dish was insanely good and the chimichurri was one of the best I've ever had. Now I gotta go back for dinner! read more

Really love this place especially since it's around the corner. Reliably good burgers and salads with natural wines and tasty tap rotations on the beer side. It's always hoppin. The vibes are great there. Usually some good sports games on. We love seeing the vibrancy with the pups outside and some families. It's just a great anchor local bar with great food to boot! read more

This is my go-to neighborhood well and restaurant. Food is amazing, beer lines are well kept, and staff are great.

My husband and I have been here 3 times now and will keep coming back. The service isn't the greatest, and the food might not be the best, but it's pretty top notch for a dive bar. It's in the neighborhood, the drinks are plentiful, food solid (hubby LOVES the Chicken Sandwich), and service decent. Just do it. read more

Great beer selection and consistently excellent food--we love the burgers, Amish chicken tenders and roasted chicken, and the salads. Servers are warm and understanding with our kids as well, over many visits. read more

My husband and I were in Ukrainian Village for a Dentist appointment and we needed a place for lunch. We wandered into Tuman's and I think we found a neighborhood gem! It was brunch - I had the breakfast burrito (a solid A) and my husband had the mushroom, pepper, onion, and goat cheese omelette (solid A+)! We each had the blackberry mimosa, a regular mimosa, and jalapeño infused vodka cocktail which was outstanding. Our server was super nice, friendly, and attentive. I hate going to the dentist but Tuman's might be my incentive to go! read more

(3/29/24) Carryout. Just left, first timer wanted to checkout their Lenten Fish Fry. I get that the place was busy, however you should want your customers to feel welcomed, not like they're in your way. Put a smile on your faces (females) and greet & respond hospitably. The fish was hot, however the fries were on the cold side, clearly they didn't cook it at the right time. Would've been nice if napkins were in the bag. For $20(w/tip) you would think. read more

Super cool vibes and very relaxed to meet and hang with friends. Food and drinks are always quick and delicious!!! Service has always been great! read more

This has been my local for years and for good reason. Short menu and they nail it, roast chicken is winter fav but brunch also rocks, BALT . Alex the bartender has the best playlists and even surprises my teenager sometimes (wait TV Girl at Tuman's?). Always a Great beer selection too. But the real reason we come back are the awesome people who take care of us while we're there, Sarah, Michelle, Morgan, Brea, Asher, Alex and Jess. Great crew who take great care of us and always have a second to say hi even when it's crazy read more

I'm so glad I came here and didn't read the other reviews. The service was so on point. The food was absolutely fantastic. I'm from Los Angeles and that roasted chicken is DELICIOUS. The only reason they lost a star is for the broken AC so the heat kinda made it miserable. read more

This place everything you need to start (and end) your night. Greta drink options. Plenty of space to spread out. Food. Amazing staff. Went here with a small crew and this place did not disappoint. A+ for being a "local spot" that just does the trick. read more

Although I do like it was dog friendly . The business was slightly busy the day the 3 of us were at a table. The food was average and the service was lackluster. Had to keep getting our servers attentions. Spend money elsewhere. read more

I'm afraid too much about this gem because it truly is a treasure, I'll start by addressing the ambiance , very chill , makes it hard to leave, the kind of place you post camp and relax , only downfall is lack of seats at times ,, The service which is always down to earth , friendly and attentive . Being a craft beer guy I have to say , the beer list rotates fast enough and has great variety which includes hard to find releases, Their vivid descriptions of each beer , makes it hard to leave without trying several , but what really prompted my review was the food , OMG is it fabulous , I don't know if they have a chef or if it's somebody's mother back there cooking , but everything tastes as if it were homemade , Tumans has a regular menu with delicious burgers and tasty wings, (BBQ is my go to )but if your really hungry they offer a Amish Chicken with potatoes which is killer. I recently discovered they have a dinner special each weekend and it runs out fast , I had the last 2 breaded pork chops , and they were cooked to perfection ,I couldn't wait to see what was next and I wasn't disappointed , Baby Back Ribs with a Honey mustard glaze was for dinner the following weekend , off the charts delicious , cant wait til next weekend ! read more

Terrific food! Interesting weekend specials. Friendly, attentive staff. Nice weekend brunch. read more

Delightful. Great service, delicious food, love the variety and unexpected menu. Must try

Old school classic bar with a decent whiskey & beer selections and one GREAT burger! Slagel Family Farm (Fairbury, Illinois) does a custom blend for Tuman's of sirloin, short rib, and chuck -- all naturally raised beef. The bun is soft, but firm enough to grip the burger for big bites. Delicious! read more

It seems to be the end of an era. I can't believe the fact that the Czarina of the Patio, Sarah, is no longer at Tuman's. We will need to 'shop' for a new home away from home. Tuman's was a lifeline, a source of sanity during COVID and I have continued to enjoy dining in the tent during the cold months. If one of us had a harsh day- the answer was Tuman's. I feel robbed of a precious thing I could always count on. People are what make a place more than food and furniture. It always comes down to the people. At this stage I know the menu by heart and the food is reliably good. But the food stopped being the reason for going there a long time ago. read more

Love this neighborhood bar and everyone that works there. *It gives me "Cheers" vibes in regards to the staff and patrons My go to: - chopped chicken salad -turkey burger -grilled chick sammy + sautéed mushrooms -FRIES read more

We went here to meet some friends for Happy Hour and were very pleased we went. We got there first so we just sat at the bar. Bartender was quick to welcome us. (Wasn't very busy inside...most people were out on the patio enjoying perfect weather). He was very knowledgeable about their whiskey selection. When the rest of our party showed up, a very pleasant young lady found us a place where we could sit. We didn't eat anything but we had great time with a great staff helping us do so! We'll be back! read more

We love Tuman's and have been enjoying the beers and food here for years. It has the feel of a neighborhood bar, but unexpectedly has an amazing beer menu and delicious food. My boyfriend love how casual Tuman's is and that we can usually get in without a wait. Their burgers, grilled cheese, and mashed potatoes are my favorite. My boyfriend loves their Amish chicken. He says 'they have the recipe down!' I like how the prepare their thin cut fries too. The only thing I didn't really enjoy was the pasta, so I won't be getting that again. Everything else has been above expectations. They also do a good fish fry during Lent! My boyfriend is the beer nerd, so he loves their selection of craft beers. He says they must have some hook up, because they get some really unique things, like Collective Arts and some beer from Spark, NV. We were excited to go back and support them today. We had dinner outside and were able to bring our puppy! The setup was safe and seemed to be in accordance with social distancing rules. It's currently first come, first serve with a 90 minute max. Definitely stop by to support! read more

My coworkers and I came here after work and immediately in a rude manner the waitress demanded we move and broke up our group. We complied and we all sat in separate tables and the lady kept talking down to us. We could not move to talk to one another, she screamed at us to stay seated. I understand keeping order but have some customer service and talk like a normal person, not like Sheldon Cooper. read more

We rented a car to escape the greater downtown tourist area. We stopped my Midwest brewery and were hungry. They recommended this unassuming place. The draft beers were unique and delicious. We split an app and chicken salad. Sooooo good. Best beer and salad ever read more

It has been a long time since I was here and I should have stayed away. We ate inside due to heat. The food and drink were okay, Nothing to brag about. The service was not good, (bad) she took forever to take our drink and food order and we never saw her after that. No salt , pepper, ketchup, water refill, extra side plates. Nothing!! We tipped 20% because two of the people come for drinks at the bar occasionally. I don't know if they will ever come back after this poor experience. I do not recommend this place. There are so many good places in Chicago to spend your money. This is not one of them. :-( read more

Tuman's has one of the best burgers in the neighborhood and although their food menu might not be expansive, their consistency is delightful and their weekend specials keep you on your toes. Their beers are cold, cocktails delicious, and bartenders and wait staff are helpful and kind. read more

Tuman's is dangerously close to my new apartment, but I can't complain about being this close to a neighborhood favorite. Our party of six showed up on a Friday night around 9:00, and no surprise, it was packed. It's a narrow space, one that's hard to navigate if you and a larger group are waiting to be seated. One of the hostesses was incredibly gracious (I so wish I remember her name!) and settled us out of the way in a corner, bringing us drinks shortly afterwards. Eventually we got a table, and proceeded to eat burgers like it was our job. They had a great beer menu with enough variety to satisfy everyone in our party. The burgers were fantastic (again, a little concerned that I live so close). If I'm being super picky, the fries were overcooked. Based on other Yelp photos, it looks like it could have been an isolated incident. Tuman's has perfected a dive-y ambiance that still retains an atmosphere of neighborly camaraderie. We will most certainly be back! read more

Admittedly, I've only been here once, but that one visit this week was magic. Service by Sarah K. was excellent. We came by at 5:30, and we were surprised that this worked as a relatively kid-friendly space (we were in the back). We tried the soft pretzels and the burgers with fries for adults and kids. Excellent. Those damn pretzels were so good that my crazy-picky daughter got angry that there weren't more of them. The burgers were cooked just right and the fries were my kind of greasy (as in, not too greasy, felt fresh cut, etc.). I had an old fashioned and my wife got a beer; on my next visit I will try more of the cocktails but this was a great start. Looking forward to trying the chicken sammie and the oysters, since my neighbors recommend those! read more

Tuman's Tap and Grill - Grilled cheese comes with cheesy tomato soup - Pubs Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Went there on Monday night football bears game. Got the Amish roasted chicken. AWESOME!! I normally order wine to enhance a dish but this was Soo good it wasn't needed. I wasn't even very hungry. The mashed potatoes and gravy had a wonderful taste like a creamy french onion soup. The roasted broccoli was perfectly charred. Cheese plate was kinda lame in comparison to places like Hidden Root, Lula. But it had some killer walnuts Great beer. Volume too loud for the game which forced the local idiot sports "expert" to voice his blathering louder. read more

What I enjoyed about Tuman's is that my friends could dance their booties off while I chilled at a table drinking my brews. On the night I went, it was craft beer week and Tuman's had some special beers on draft. Total win for me that my friends were happy and Sarah stayed happy. Tuman's is a really chill atmosphere, great music and most importantly great beer! read more

old fashion is awful! moved to this neighborhood 8 years ago and loved Tumans for their old fashions; went there regularity with buddy just got the old fashions. Stopped by tonight and it was awful. come to find out regret switched their whiskey from Wellers special reserve, to Four Roses and now it's Benchmark at 80% alcohol,..the drink was awful. Given they're charging even more but using awful whiskey I'm sad to say I won't ever come back after an 8 year run of supporting this bar. read more

The food is always fantastic here and the vibe is relaxed and fun! I will be back again soon.
