Mchale's Bar & Grill

Great location for a pre-theatre bite and for sports fans. TVs well placed throughout the restaurant to watch all your favorite games. Love the wood paneling and Christmas decorations during the holiday season, which adds to the cozy feel. My fish and chips were just average: batter on the fish was very thick and the whole dish came out cold (I suspect it was waiting on the pass while the other dishes for my party were still cooking). However, the friendly service more than made up for the food.

Came after a show at Westside theater. Apparently the Irish curry was their best seller. A little spicy, loads of chicken. I went to school in Ireland and I didn’t remember this in pubs… 😂 loved the environment. Served by Rachel. Come and enjoy a late evening out. Like the fact that most indoor pubs are not smoky like Irish pubs 2 years ago. 😝 had a Bud light. I like my wimpy beer. God bless the USA.

Gorgeous place with AMAZING food! Service was slightly slow, but it was understandable since they had just opened. The spicy crispy sandwich was decent, wouldn't recommend it unless you add a sauce to the side or just want something crispy and tender since it barely has spice to it. Fries were generously given, let me tell you they're DELISH!!! Everyone was so sweet, music is very fun to jam to, several TVs as well so we can view a game if we're bored. Had a brownie for dessert, so great on a rainy day like this because it was warm and gooey and adorable how they presented it on the plate. WILL DEFINITELY RETURN!

Great Irish pub/bar. Has an upstairs where we sat. Had windows overlooking the street below. A little warm up there but great seats otherwise. I had the French onion soup to start and wow! Look at picture and you will know. I had the Shepards pie which had great flavor and .meat was so tender. I could have ate 2 dishes of it. My friend had the reuben and shared with me. Was best i have had. Illinois has nothing like the quality of this. Great place!
