Reviews for Kirkwood in Chicago, IL
Nice local sports bar to watch the games, hangout with friends and eat good food. Many indoor/outdoor seating options with TVs... on every wall. Friendly staff who work hard to please their customers. Read more
I usually do not write bad reviews because I am a pretty understanding and positive person, but I have NEVER had such an... unpleasant experience at a bar. My girlfriend and I loved this bar for the past 6 months. It can be a little pricey but usuallydecent quality and lots of space. Plus my girlfriend is an IU fan and it is an IU bar. However, we went there recently we didnot have a good time due to the awful bartender. We ordered one round of drinks and then told them to keep it open so we leftour card with them....pretty standard... But after we finished our drinks we decided to go to a more lowkey place since it waspretty crowded and they only had one of the bars open. When we went to close out the bartender told us we did not have a tabopen and they did not have our card. I insisted we did hand him our card and I had watched him open a tab. He constantly told usthat he had never seen us and he did not have a tab open nor did he have our card. He continued to gaslight us for another 10minutes which caused my girlfriend to freak out because she did not have her card. Finally, he called a manager over to tell uswhat was happening, the manager found our card in 2 seconds and closed us out. The tab came out to $80 for one round of drinksfor 5 people, pretty usual for Chicago. This was such an unpleasant experience I will never return and I will never recommendthis place to anyone.

Great neighborhood sports bar with one of the best patios in Lakeview to watch any games you'd like. There are probably 15 TVs... outside and they will put on any game that you'd like. The crowd is mostly younger which isn't bad and they have good bar food.Perfect place for college football or to hang out on a nice summer day to chill and get your booze on. Read more
Loud crowded sports bar. Chicken nachos were absolutely delicious and so were the tots. Bartenders were really nice but the... server was miserable as hell. She obviously didn't want to be there. Read more
This place was a great stop! Despite ordering right before the kitchen closed, the food was delicious and came out quickly! The... atmosphere is great and they played some good music throughout the night. I’ll be going back! Read more
Great sports bar! Food was fireee. The chicken strips were next level fo real. Staff at the door were supa friendly
Here’s the deal, seems like a great sports bar, very rowdy and excitable for this college basketball game day, and also they... have a hell of a bloody bar that I’d give a 5.0. But we went here with my brother expecting to get brunch, and they weremysteriously not serving brunch this day regardless of what their website says. It was all very good tho. Just don’t lie to usabout brunch. Read more
