I was in Chicago Easter weekend and had the opportunity to visit Dublin's. My fiance and I got hungry and it was late at night. The restaurant at Hotel Indigo was closed so we asked someone at the front desk what they suggested and they told us to go to Dublin's. The food and service were incredible! I had the... More

We stumbled upon this pub when we couldn't get a table at Tavern on Rush. We just wanted a drink and some quick appetizers before we went to dinner. This place has a great location, an average staff, and surprisingly good bruschetta(for an Irish Pub). It was crowded, but we were seated right away. This is a cool little place... More

Came in to Dublin's around 11 on a Saturday night and the place was packed, which is to be expected in this area on a Saturday night. Didn't have to wait too long at the bar to be served and the bartenders were nice. Didn't wind up staying too long as more people kept flooding in. Nice place. Would go... More

What's not to like? Lively atmosphere, friendly bartenders, and this will seriously surprise you for a neighborhood pub - absolutely spectacular dining. Try the Crabcakes or Portabello Mushrooms for appetizers.

This was the midway point of the Mag Mile shopping trip on which I dragged DH. Try the local beer on tap and be nice to your servers - they tried to catch me when I left my purchases behind at the bar (*oops*), and gladly returned them to me when I came back a sheepish 10 minutes or so... More

Nice atmosphere, nice beers, nice wine, wish we had tried the food! We went there twice as it was very comfortable. The only problem was seating but hey was great to just have a beer in the searing heat!

It is very close to Sofitel. We wandered in there a couple of years ago and grab a drink there when in town. Food is decent and there is outdoor seating. It's in a good location near other bars/restaurants like Hugo's Frog Bar, Gibson's, Tavern On Rush, and others.

Stopped by while on a visit in Chicago. It was nice enough we sat outside and watched the people. No beer specials which is a bummer and they are a little high. The fish and chips while not authentic was pretty good. The steak sandwich was okay, not alot of flavor. The service was good and the location excellent.
