Happy hour visit offers great deals on wine beer special cocktails plus a lot of yummy options of HH plates like fish tacos $12 or hot dog fries $9 etc. I had a mean taste for the outstanding truffle salmon risotto vegetables, PERFECTLY seasoned & served hot fresh. Wow-so impressed & affordably priced at $25. Attentive friendly dervice by waiter Rory & ever dependable food runner of many years. Fun festive atmosphere prepping for Sox Cubs series. read more

Our run club had it's post - Chicago Marathon race meetup here to celebrate all of us crossing the finish line. It's a fun pub spot. Nice selection of beers, good food, and friendly service. Cozy neighborhood spot with plenty of seating and with just the right amount of quirkiness to it. read more

Went there for happy hour and had a blast. Our server Edie made us feel at home with her energy and service. Everyone there enjoyed the music with us even joined in dancing ( they let you add music to play and it had everyone in a good mood ) . The food and drinks are always good and made to order so it's always fresh ! read more

Awesome spot for some drinks and bar food before an event at Soldiers! It's a safe easy 20 min walk to the stadium...parking is another issue. Plenty of street spots (feed the meter), but max is 3 1/2 hours, so ended up getting a spot at 13th & MI via spot hero. I had called the day before for a reservation for 4 and table was ready when we arrived. They did a fantastic job managing the surge of people before the event and the service was excellent! Cheese curds were perfect & served in a large basket for the 4 of us. Boneless wines (great sauce) and pretzel bites almost finished us off...but there was still room for delicious burger and salads. The $8 for a pint of Zombie Dust was less than half a beer at Soldiers ($17 ). Happy vibe and sports on the tvs make it a great experience! read more

Draft beer and Illinois vibe we're pros, burger fell apart after 3 bites and kids running around in heels the whole time, would come back!

I LOVE the environment here! The bartenders and staff are so attentive and nice! (Jillian, Edie, Rory, Mel, Stash, McKenna, Selena, Monique.) Mark, the owner runs a great operation! I recommend the Asian short ribs! read more

Weathermark is a local South Loop gem; great place to get an affordable bite and drink and to watch sports. (They have really good specials on rotation!) The staff and establishment are also incredibly kid friendly. Come here if you're looking for a spot with some character vs just another generic sports bar. read more

Oh my goodness .. my tastebuds are were in heaven and was pleasantly surprised especially when I tried the Parmesan garlic cheese fries and the southern hot brown sliders which came with a side of potato salad (now who's grandma y'all got back there making the potato salad because she's deserves a raise) everything was delicious and the service was great we were in town for the Cowboy Carter Concert and it was truly a memorable event thank you! The atmosphere was perfect read more

Yes please My favorite neighborhood bar Great for sports. Family dinner or just a quick meal with friends. The owner Mark is ALWAYS there. Ask for him and he will give you great recommendations for your day evening or night. read more

My wife and I happen to be in the neighborhood today and decide to try this place for brunch. It is a huge mistake. We place our order and wait for over 45 minutes without seeing our server even once. When I finally decide to check, I go to see if our order has even been communicated to the kitchen. It hasn't. The waitress explains that the kitchen is "really backed up," but almost no one is eating. Most of the patrons are just drinking and watching a college football game. If you value your time, avoid this place. As I write this review, I still haven't received my food. read more

Fun place with great food! A warm and friendly neighborhood spot. Fish tacos are wonderful, and their sweet potato fries are crispy thin! read more

Weather Mark Tavern - Chile. It tastes as good as it looks. Delicious! Best chile in the area. - Pubs Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

The place has plenty of tables, plus a patio with a garage door that opens, giving you a nice inside/outside vibe. There are a few TVs along the bar wall and one in back, but it would be better if they added more along the stripped wall, since sitting at a table means you're facing away from the screens. The staff was friendly, though a bit slow. We really appreciated the light fare options on the menu. We ordered the roasted beet & kale superfood salad with mahi mahi and the Mediterranean salad. The tahini honey vinegarette that came with the beet salad tasted more like sweet peanut than tahini, but other than that, the food was pretty good. read more

This is a great place to come before a Bears game or any event at soldier field! Nice and helpful staff. Great service with the crowds they can handle. Food was mediocre but only tried the pretzel bites. Definitely will come back for pre events to soldier field anytime! read more

Their pizza slaps! And so do their drinks. This place does get kinda loud but it's so fun and service is great. In an area without a lot of bars, this place is a gem for sure. read more

We came for but all you can eat fish and chips on a Friday night on 3/14/25. They also have a happy hour menu from 4 to 6 PM Monday through Friday. I am not sure if this all you can deal is just for lent or bc it's close to St Patrick's Day in 3 days. The atmosphere is fun and lots of tables and lots of TV flatscreen everywhere to watch sports and drink and eat with. They have three bathrooms. And they have outdoor seating. And they have a window that looks like a garage window, which is really nice. The corned beef dish for About $19.50 was really good. This was the special St Patties Day menu. The food took a very long time to come out for 2 dishes and 1 second round of extra fish and chips platter. We stayed almost 2 hours bc the food came so late. Fun atmosphere and the food was good ... just took too long. Parking on the street with meters at $2.50 per hour. Parking was easy to find at night starting around 5pm. Staff was friendly. read more

This place is near work, so I have stopped in to kill time before meeting my husband. I really like the tone of the place, and they do have daily draft specials on some days. It has been my experience that they get very crowded when something is going on at Soldier Field. The bartenders I have encountered have been very outgoing and fun. While they do have outdoor seating, it is very limited. read more

The least welcoming "neighborhood" bar I have ever visited. The service staff - bartenders and servers are great, but damn! the managers and hosts will go out of their way to make you feel like an outsider. I tried for 2 years to make this joint my local. I'm done and will be spenimg my time and cash at the multitude of south loop joints that make me feel welcome - Casa Tulum, Staleys, Chicago Firehouse and more. read more

Grabbed a couple drinks here the other night with my best friend and enjoyed the atmosphere. There happened to be a few specials that night: half priced bottles of wine and $12 pizzas. We indulged in the wine special by ordering a couple bottles of rose. We skipped on the pizza and ordered a couple apps (cheese curds and boneless wings). The wings were good but the curds were over fried so I'd recommend passing on those. Our waitress was nice despite having some other rowdy tables she was handling. Overall a good experience. read more

Sadness. I must downgrade my review. What happened to the Cruzan Rum battered fish fry? *sigh* Went here for a fish fry, after a long absence. Sadly, it was not as good. The fish fillets were fine, but the breading was thick, not very crispy and downright soggy in places. The red cabbage slaw was still good, as was the dill tartar sauce. Specialty cocktails were OVERLY sweet. Generous size, which is good, but a bit too sweet. Service was stellar, the staff is friendly and attentive. But the fish fry is just not as good anymore. Woe. read more

came in for brunch on a saturday around 12:30. while the server was kind and funny, the food took almost an a hour and a half to reach our table and was underwhelming. we were a table of multiple service industry workers, we understand things getting missed or rushes of people however this was incredibly disappointing. we were assured that 'it's coming' several times however we watched tables come in and receive food before we did. we were all very understanding at the beginning but just became fed up. it was a busy day and the kitchen seemed to be running behind but over and hour for food is just sad :/ read more

Open late but the kitchen closes at 10 which was disappointing bc we missed it by a few minutes. Half off wine on Wednesday which is a great deal. Good vibes, sports playing on screens, not too loud or crowded. Only three tables outside though so if you're lucky you can snag one. read more

It's a typical neighborhood spot with casual atmosphere, big TVs, and straightforward menu. We arrived for an after dinner beer on a Friday and it was very busy. We were seated quickly and service was friendly and very warm. It was our first time even though we've lived in the neighborhood for years. We learned that the kitchen was closed for 45 min because a large party was seated which I thought was weird and a bummer as we wanted to sample the famous pretzel bites. We had a couple beers, a cocktail, and learned later that the kitchen reopened so did get our snack order in. They food was so so. The drinks were okay, but it was our friendly server that made it a better experience. The space is loud and a younger crowd on this night so I don't know that we'll be back, but nice to know it's an option. read more

The food was just OK; the fries were of the frozen variety, so they were not up to par. The waitress was very nice, and the ambiance was pleasant. read more

The hours posted on Yelp are not reliable. They were closed on Sunday at 10 PM. ........................

I really like the people and the place. We felt right at home even though we are from Alabama. We sat, ate and drank while seated in comfortable couches. Food was really good including burgers chicken sandwiches, and chips. The beer is cold and Soldier Field is only a short walk away. read more

We had brunch there today. It took a while for everyone to get there and our waitress was great at keeping an eye on our table. We were also under a time constraint and we were able to order when the last straggler arrived because our waitress was right there. Our food came quickly. We got a whole range of things: hash, salad, bratwurst, chicken and waffles. Everyone enjoyed their food, there were no complaints. The menu was solid. There wasn't anything fancy, but it was tasty. Waters were topped off. Empty plates were cleared, they were on top of it. And, as a bonus, the price for the portion size and food quality was great! read more

I had a great burger and fabulous Blood Orange Cali beer for lunch yesterday. I haven't been here for years even though it's right near my house. I'll be back soon. I mostly dine alone and felt very comfortable here despitthe brunch groups. Friendly place. Fast service. Good food. read more

I come here frequently and always have a great experience! Good food, good service & a fun atmosphere all around!

My roommate and I love it here! McKenna is the best and the atmosphere is always great. Food is really good too!

This was the F3 1/2 Marathon post party place so it was packed. Staff handled it well. Had one server who probably should've stayed home (not pleasant) but we didn't let that ruin our experience. Good food/drink options and plenty of TV's for sports. read more

I enjoy walking up to enjoy Sunday football. Plenty of TVs and booze. Depending on what's going on, seating can be a bit rough, so you'll have to keep that in mind. The food is also decent - typical fried, bar food that pairs nicely with a beer! What more can you ask for when it comes to watching Sunday football? read more

Great for both drinks and meals. Show up during a local game and see how lively the place can be. I love their whisky selection and prices. Sit at the bar and the bartender pays attention to your needs! read more

Decent food and drinks. The service was great! We ordered the blackened tuna sandwich and the Chicago Philly sandwich. Both sandwiches were pretty good but the steak fries were excellent with good crunch and not too much salt. read more

This is a very underrated restaurant. Very easy to pass by. I went to brunch on a Sunday at this place. Very amazing and quick service. I attend a birthday brunch of 25 people people and the server who served us, white young lady with a blonde pixie hair cut, did an amazing job catering to each person in addition to ensuring there was always enough mimosas flowing around. (Everyone partook in the $15/ person unlimited mimosas). I ordered the crab cake Benedict and my friend ordered the chicken hash. Both were filling dishes. The seasoning was well down and thought threw. Overall this place is amazing and there is enough space to hold over 25+ birthday brunch party and still have space for another 50 people. read more

Weather Mark Tavern has been amazing for our neighborhood here in the South Loop during this Covid-19 crisis. Not only do we order from the carry-out menu weekly (yes, that's a picture of our cheeseburger and beer order!!), but we love how the owner and staff are supporting our local nurses, doctors and first responders with meals! Can we give MORE than 5 stars? Thank you Weather Mark!! read more

I ordered takeout today: an order of 1/2 slab of ribs. The ribs were burnt, hard, and inedible. I was only able to eat the steak fries that came with the meal. This was a rather costly mistake. I've ordered from Weather Mark Tavern before and have always been satisfied. The cook must have had an "off" day. read more
