Dublin Bar & Grill

This place is awesome. Staff is exceptionally attentive and friendly. The menu is extensive and the soup of the day was very tasty! Really enjoyed it here. Laid back and easy place to hang out. Highly recommend dropping in if you are looking for a chill place to hang out/ enjoy some down time.

Really cool Irish pub in Gold Coast. We went on a Saturday afternoon and it was slammed! They had TVs everywhere playing soccer and The Masters. Huge menu - over 25 different items to choose from for food and a large beer list. We enjoyed the chicken parm sandwich and fish and chips. The service was pretty bad but we were just hanging out for a while so it didn't bother us too much.Overall, would probably only go back for drinks!

I needed a cheaper place to eat. Although this place ain't exactly cheap, if you compare it to other restaurants in this area.....it's a lot better than paying $90 for a steak or $55 for a plate of pasta. There are many eateries doing that in this neighborhood.It was a late Sunday afternoon. Place was packed, but I found a lone stool at the bar. Music was loud. Bartender was coy, but friendly.One thing I was asked to do before ordering, was to let the bar hold on to my credit card! This is a first for me. Perhaps prevents dine & dash?I ordered a corn beef sandwich ($15) and a bottle of beer ($5.50).As I sat there waiting for my food, there was a heated discussion between a server and a manager. Another manager had to get involved as well.Despite the loud music, I could hear it. I was surprised they even discussed their problems right in front of a customer, but it is a very small and cramped joint.I could watch the kitchen do its thing from my bar stool. If cooks handling food without gloves is a deal breaker for you.....don't order anything to eat here.Sandwich arrived promptly, mediocre at best....along with a generous portion of French fries.I'll probably go elsewhere next time, for variety's sake.

Nice neighborhood bar. We came in for drinks and even though the plsce was full we were able to get drinks quickly. They also have warm drinks in the winter.

Highly recommend the Bison Burger! The fried egg running down the side makes for one heck of a burger. The atmosphere is nice and the patio seating is perfect for those Chicago summer days. Our sever was tentative and the auxiliary staff was quick to wipe down the tables and refresh waters.

As you can probably tell from the name, the vibe of Dublins is an Irish Pub. It's nearly impossible to find somewhere casual in Gold Coast, but Dublins is perfect if you don't feel like dressing to the nines for dinner and/or drinks. Perfect place to watch sporting events too. They had high quality bar food from my experience. I got their spicy chicken caesar wrap, which I was only slightly disappointed with because it tasted more like a buffalo wrap than caesar. I loved that it came on a little bed of caesar salad though and I also loved that the chicken was breaded inside. Worth checking out if are looking for bar food, just want to grab a beer or a place to watch a game!

I came here two weekends in a row for drinks, and was even more impressed with the bar food. Excellent service, great drinks all around for a dive bar with good pours. The bartenders and staff in general take care of you as well. For food, we got the Mediterranean beef salad, which was delicious and fresh. Lots of meat with a nice dressing. We also got the spinach and artichoke dip, but this wasn't my favorite and was a bit watery. We got a side of fries, which was actually a huge plate and excellent thin cut fries. Overall this was a great spontaneous dive bar dinner- no frills but awesome bang for your buck.

Grabbed a bite with a friend on Friday night. It was pretty crowded but we got a table. Had some drinks and some food. I always walk past this spot and when I saw the menu was vast and reasonably priced I just may come back. All sorts of people are in there black white Indian Asian Latin a mix pool but of course it's a pub so mostly white. It's in the heart of Rush and Oak so there's a lot of people watching. My food was cool.

Never got to try the food or got service for that matter...I sat at the bar, no one came, then I asked to be moved to an outside table and still no service. The server looked at me, served everyone else and never came to take my order. Will not be visiting ever again. I also saw her rudely brush off another black couple when trying to ask a question. She literally served every single table twice, and as I said, looked at me, and never serviced me.

Great spot, lots of locals and iced cold beer! Definitely worth stopping. I was in need of a cold beer and they didn't disappoint.
