Pleasant House Pub

I had steak and ale pie on a trip to London earlier this year and fell in love with it. This was the only place in Chicago that had it on the menu. The only criticism I’ll give it is that the meat seemed more like stew beef as opposed to steak. However I still found it delicious and will come back next time I have a taste for steak and ale pie. In addition to the food I enjoyed eating here and the service was great!

We ordered delivery from Pleasant House. I asked for a couple of things that were on the regular menu, but not the online menu. They accommodated those requests beautifully! I would've totally understood if they'd declined my requests, so I can't thank them enough. Beyond that, the food was outstanding even as delivery. Not many places can deliver fries (or chips, in this case) well, but they came through. And they were quick! I added a pic of my meal to demonstrate the excellent fried egg I requested. Next time we're in town, we're going into the actual pub. I can't wait! Thank you, Pleasant House Pub!

Great place for a tradition English breakfast. My boyfriend and I went on a Saturday afternoon and the place was fairly packed but we were seated right away. They have an outdoor area that is pretty cool. The inside decor gives an English vibe that I love. Also, the Bloody Mary was very very tasty. I will definitely be coming back soon.

Some of the best savory pies in Chicago! I recommend the kale mushroom pie, but don’t forget to also ask about the pie of the day. Add a “crown” to your pie for a generous portion of mashed potatoes and gravy on top! Good variety of rotating drafts and really great rotating cocktails as well, including seasonal drinks. During the warm months, this spot has a lovely patio with soft breezes. During the cold months, this spot feels cozy - the perfect place for a meal with warm drinks! Service is speedy, attentive, and welcoming. This is a must-try place!

Pleasantly surprised how great the food was here! I was looking for a place that served mulled wine and this spot popped up. It was a plus that they also served pot pie as on this cold winter day how comforting. The Scottish egg was very yummy, of course the pot pie and mulled wine was excellent. They sticky toffee pudding was warm and decadent. We got the cookies to go. I also asked for a mulled wine to go which I will make at home (they give you the ingredients to make it). The waitress was very friendly and helpful. My husband’s cousin has the chicken pot pie which the waitress recommended he get it crowned with curry sauce instead of gravy which was a good call. All in all would come again!

Very good experience. Service was good. The food was so yummy. Lots of things to try here. The place was decorated very cutely. Pies 4/5 Can’t go wrong with any of these. Wish they were a bit more saucy but other than that it was good. Sausage 5/5 Filling dish. The sausage was very light and with the mash potatoes and gravy was a good mix. The caramelized onion also helped create a sweetness. Scotch egg 4/5 Pretty good. The yolk was still soft which I liked. Curry chips 4/5 Good amount of fries. Gravy chips 5/5 Savory and tasty. Liked this chips much more. Chicken sandwich 5/5 My friend really enjoyed it.
