Reviews for Pleasant House Pub in Chicago, IL
The house burger is great. Two smash patties, cheddar, and some special stuff going on. I like to keep it pure on this one--no... ketchup or mustard. And the chips (fries) are perfectly crispy on the outside and soft and delicious on the inside. Order with aside of mayo and definitely malt vinegar. Feeling like I'm in London. Staff is easy going. Quiet atmosphere. I've enjoyed abook or two year once or twice here. One bike stand out front. Ditch the car, burn off those dinner calories! Read more
First visit, celebrating our wedding anniversary. Loved it, great food, prices, friendly staff and plenty of street parking.... Eclectic background music and great drink assortment. My wife is of Scottish background so we?re somewhat familiar with Britishmeals. Can?t wait to return for the Friday fish n? chips! Read more
I almost no fail order the chicken balti pie with extra curry sauce. The crust is crisp and the inside is not too spicy, but... nicely balanced. Order the extra curry sauce on the side and douse the pie. If you get the steak and ale, crown it (mashedpotatoes on top.) Patio has a slightly more casual vibe then the inner dinning room. Don?t forget you can take frozen pies togo. Read more
When we walked through the door and could hear a British accent coming from a customer in the corner, I knew I was in an... authentic British pub. It was my Mothers Day outing with my son. The drinks were excellent. Our appetizer, the Deluxe GravyChips, was to die for. We had royal pies with perfectly flaky crusts and delicious fillings. Mine was the Mushroom & Kale andhis was the Chicken Balti. We both loved our selections! I would go back and bring others along! Read more
I only had their pies to go before. It was our first time dining in today. The pies were great and the atmosphere is nice. The... server and service was great. I completely forgot to crown our pies and he was nice enough to take it back and to crown themafter it was already brought out. I can't wait to go back again when I'm visiting Chicago again Read more
We went in on a Sunday during brunch and absolutely loved the vibe. They were busy, but the wait time was minimal even though we... didn't have a reservation. We started with a scotch egg to share and it was absolutely perfectly crispy on the outside and softin the inside. The stone ground mustard paired really nicely with it. We both ordered the chicken sandwich and MAN was it good.The curry sauce on the side for dipping our fries in was also a stellar addition. To drink, I ordered the royal milk tea. Iabsolutely loved it and wish more restaurants and coffee shops made their tea like this because if I could have this every day,I absolutely would. Read more
Had a wonderful brunch experience. There are two rooms, each with its unique character with sunny, big windows. We ordered the... steak and ale pie and fried chicken sandwich, which came with pickled zucchini! The chai latte was so fragrant from the spicesthey used. Highly recommend. Read more
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. Sausage5/5 Filling dish. The sausage was very light and with the mash potatoes and gravy was a good mix. The caramelized onion alsohelped create a sweetness. Scotch egg 4/5 Pretty good. The yolk was still soft which I liked. Curry chips 4/5 Good amount offries. Gravy chips 5/5 Savory and tasty. Liked this chips much more. Chicken sandwich 5/5 My friend really enjoyed it. Read more
