Pull up to the bar for the matchday atmosphere, settle into the lounge for something a little more relaxed, or head up to the roof deck on a perfect Chicago summer day. Whether you're a lifelong supporter or just looking for a great meal in West Town, there's something here for you.

    We had a wonderful dinner here and an excellent waitress by the name of Grace. Every dish we got was expertly prepared with incredible flavor. We will absolutely be returning to try other things on the menu. Standout items were the bone-in strip and the rhubarb fritter.

    The service here is fantastic from the moment I stepped inside. The hostesses, Lorena and Chelsea, greeted me with warm smiles making me feel right at home. Sebastian, the server ensured that I had a wonderful dining experience, even though I was dining alone. The restaurant’s decor, featuring books and art, creates an enchanting atmosphere of Hogwarts. I highly recommend this hidden gem.
