Old Town Pour House (Old Town - Chicago)

I would rate this as 4.3 stars. The place has this really cool vibe with its rich dark wood interior and bar. I also like the entrance-way that feels like its a “tucked - in” corner, though along a busy Wells Street straight-away. I visited for brunch right when they opened. I ordered the Mothers Little Helper which had creamy cheddar grits with pork belly and sausage. The egg, though stated as fried, is actually over-hard. The plate was very good, but I like my eggs over-easy, would add a nice silky texture on top of the slightly stiff but tasty grits. The meats was salty, fatty and nicely pepper flavored. The staff is very nice and friendly. I will need to visit for dinner to try their main courses. But overall, a very nice Old Town neighborhood staple.

The beer dinner I attended was worth every penny I spent on it. The beers that were paired with each dish really complemented each other. My favorites were the braised elk and the peanut butter cake which was SUPER RICH. I hope they do this again soon ?????

always a good time to go to old town pour house to catch a big football game. have been here for the SEC championship and most recently went for the super bowl. they have a pretty small food menu for a big bar in my opinion. i got the popcorn chicken and fries and they were both decent. will of course come back here but it’s not my ultimate favorite bar

Mid. Burgers appear to use frozen patties but still taste fine. I wish there were more fries. Loud atmosphere, Woody interior. 3.5/5 nothing really interesting to see here.

I ordered the “Let it BLTE” sandwich for brunch and asked to have the bacon on the side for my sister since I don’t eat meat. Waiter said the cheesy potato casserole isn’t cooked with chicken broth either ? All of the food was fresh and delicious! I ordered a taster size of the local cider, Blossom, which was pretty nice as well.

Inside there's a beautiful double staircase then you see the 100+ taps for drinkers delight. Make sure you ask for the limited tap menu to see what is seasonal, those are usually a great beer. I love getting the flight to taste a few so I don't have to only choose one

Post brunch drinks brought us to Old Town Pour House. Massive tap beer selection, great place to catch a sporting event and relax. We didn’t do food so I can’t comments on that, but their secret sauce is totally the fumes of the fresh made waffle cones tickling your nostrils from the ice cream place next door. It was rather quiet when we visited, but I bet this place is cranking on weekend nights.

Food was pretty good! I appreciated the staff finding space to get my group a reservation. Drinks were okay. Service was very slow. Waited about 30 minutes for drinks, and another 20-30 for someone to take our food order. Was really excited to come here for Friends trivia, which started about an hour later than posted. It was really difficult to hear the questions and they couldn't get the questions up on the screens to help with the sound issues. The pacing of the questions was odd. There would be two questions rapid-fire, and then a 5 minute break in between questions.
