Big Bricks

Great brisket, awesome smoked chicken wings with wonderful barbeque sauce, yummy tater tots, delicious little sliders, wonderfully crusted pizza, baked in brick oven and many many more items that make taste buds, stomach and mind happy. And it all for a reasonable price! Plus good selection of music played through very nice quality sounding speakers that allow them not to crank the volume up and it let diners to have a comfortable conversation. Plus during the warm days they have very spacious and quiet patio in the back Families love to go there and almost at any day closer to the evening there are families with kids having dinner. Seriously. This place is a gem with the only one little tiny spec of imperfection: the price for a beer is a little bit too high, but it wouldn't even affect the number of stars that I would give this place :) Oh! And to find a parking spot is pretty easy on metered streets ($2/h) and it's even possible to find a free one!

My office comes here for lunch often, and they always treat us so well! They even offer a discount for us being a local neighborhood business! Great food and great beer selection too! I had my baby shower here a few years ago and everyone had a blast! I highly recommend anything that was cooked in the smoker, especially the pulled pork. And Sean is the nicest and most patient waiter you could ever ask for! Definitely a neighborhood favorite!

Food was SO good the combo platter was amazing great for two or sharing for a large group. The mac and cheese awesome. One thing I would never order here and my table had two of them and they said it was good was the burger. I want to be asked how I want my burger. Here they bring you the stardard, not for me.

Something for everyone here. The BBQ and pizza are big faves. Big Bricks is Kid/family friendly and good for adults. They do a good job separating the space so everyone can have a good time. The front section & bar is spacious with booths and tables and is usually set aside for adult customers/groups. The back room is good for families. The patio is pleasant in the summer. Lots of room back there. Party room upstairs is nice, too.

Small hole in the wall with really good pizza. Walk in and go downstairs to the basement to find a full bar with seats. We didn't wait long to be seated at a small table in the extremely confined eating area. Music was a bit too loud for the space. Lots of specialty pizzas to choose from and you can build your own.

This place has excellent pizza for a little hole in the wall joint underground. Hard to find, but a really neat and almost historic place in Lincoln Park. Unique pizza options and really good cheesy garlic bread. Full bar available. I would recommend bricks if you want a less touristy and more local down to earth pizza spot!
