Great atmosphere and bar food. Drinks were reasonably priced, but the food is showing on inflation hit. I ordered the Works Burger with the onions sauteed. I ordered medium, but the burger was well-done. ☹️ My wife had one of the wraps (on the other side of the menu I posted with this review) and liked it a lot. The house-made chips are to die for! Service was attentive but not intrusive. It was a great evening in the beer garden and we had a great time. Word to the wise: the nachos appetizer is enormous; order the half plate for fewer than 4 people!

This is by far one of my favorite Sports Bar/Restaurants in town! Roman, Tina, Unique, and the rest of the staff make it a pleasant experience every single time.

I only visited once. Met up with family to watch a ball game. The place was spacious and had lots of monitors. Food was good. Was really impressed with the cheese curds and chicken tenders (the light, crispy breading!). Helpful, friendly servers too.

What a cozy spot near my job. Drinks are phenomenal the white sangria and the apple Martini 🍎 my favorite. Pizza was very delicious 😋 a great place to hang out after work (for sure!).

Admitably the only food I've had is their thin crust pizza, but it is outstanding! Menu is diverse. Great tavern atmosphere and nice folks running the place. Good beer selection too.

Food was good, the place was clean, our waitress Allyson ignored us. Anytime we needed anything we would have to wave her over, but I saw her check up on every other table outside. The only thing she brought quickly was the check and said "I'm not trying to kick you guys out or anything ". I asked for a Togo box and she said sure and just walked away. After a few minutes I asked a bus boy for a container and he walked all of 10 feet to where they were and got me one. So definitely check this place out and if you get Allyson ask for a different waitress.

Get the salad pizza! It's like being at a Wisconsin tavern without the drive. Great events, specials and live music. Outdoor dining in the summer. Warm, cozy bar area, large menu. Service can be slow when they are busy, but with the vibe it makes you want to kick back and relax.

The servers were super friendly and polite. Good service. Food came on time. Will definitely come back.

It was a nice experience. The food was fresh and tasted great, the service was very attentive and the drinks was fenomenal.

This place right here has the best fried chicken in Chicagoland in my opinion. The chicken is super juicy and super crispy. I don’t know they prepare the chicken breast but I swear that is the only chicken that I eat. On Sundays they have a special half fried chicken, mashed potatoes and corn. Just writing this review has me drooling wanting some.

After a lackluster experience with a previous server, we bravely took a chance on this joint once again.Thank the foodie gods for Molly, who showed us why we keep coming back for more deliciousness! This joint rocks! 5 stars all the way. Try their pizza!

Great place after a shift or to meet up with friends. Staff are friendly and work very hard. Excellent food and beer menu. Already looking forward to my next visit.

Great pricing with solid on draft options. Can’t go wrong with the salad pizza. Generous portions with fun live music entertainment on a Saturday. Challenging to find parking, but complimentary valet works out well!

We had our son's 1st birthday in the Fireplace Room at Countryside Saloon recently and we couldn't have been happier with how it turned out! We'd recommend anyone to have a big party here. We had about 50 guests and the space was more than big enough for people to walk around and mingle or sit down to eat. Staff allowed me to arrive an hour before the official party start-time so we could put up birthday decorations, including a large balloon arch (which the staff actually helped us take down & discard after the party, which was very helpful). We ordered an unlimited pizza, salad, and pasta salad food option from the kitchen, along with unlimited domestic beer pitchers, which all worked out wonderfully; food was delicious and nobody left hungry (or thirsty!). And the cost was reasonable to feed 50 people. Too bad our son will be too young to remember it, but everyone else had a great time!

I want to start off and say that we like this place, it’s one of our favorite spots to watch football games. That being said, tonight I was grossed out when I used the women’s restroom and heard our server on the phone with her manager or the owner, reviewing how the night was going at the restaurant. She was in a stall and then after the call ended, I heard her flush the toilet then leave WITHOUT WASHING HER HANDS. Our table was right outside the bathroom entrance at a high top by the bar and he confirmed that it was our server who had just exited the bathroom. This makes me absolutely sick. If you’re serving food to people it’s absolutely unacceptable to use the public restroom without washing your hands. So gnarly

I've never left feeling disappointed. The salmon is absolutely fantastic, and they always have something interesting on tap. The staff is helpful and friendly. The atmosphere is clean and welcoming and everywhere you look there is a game or show you may be interested in. Highly recommended at all hours! Try the fish fry!

Really good pizza 🍕. Nice venue. We went to see a band, good time. Dance floor is small.

We brought ten people for a birthday dinner for an out-of-state guest. It was 5:30 on a Friday night, and I was a little nervous things about how things would go, especially since we had a small dog we had to accommodate. But I needn't have worried. The staff gave us a nice table where we weren't jammed together. The waitress, while obviously extremely busy, did a remarkable job in a pleasant fashion, and the food was delicious. I highly recommend Countryside Saloon as a solid casual dining experience.

food is always good. salad pizza is a thing, and shockingly tasty. beer selection is excellent, Beer Of The Month is usually something worth trying. good burgers, never had anything bad here. Nice outside area. Everyone is nice, only knock is when they get busy the wait staff make mistakes.

IIse is very nice nice bartender!! She goes out of the way and wasn’t rude even though I had a million requests. Had a happy face the whole time. Appreciate this bar. Thank you

The food and atmosphere is great. I haven’t been back in few years and very disappointed the popcorn machine is gone, also not very family friendly there is no place in the bathroom to change my 1 year old son, even though they do have high chairs. Also chairs are very uncomfortable so they obviously don’t want people staying long.

I've been here many times and have always enjoyed the atmosphere, food, and service. Went on 8/19 with my wife and a friend. Had dinner and a couple beers, food and service were both good. The one star review is due to what happened after I got home. It was about an hour after we left, around 8:30pm, my phone rang from an unknown number, and then I got an alert for a voicemail and shortly after, a text message. Both were from Roman at Countryside, who asked me by name to call him back but offered no other details. Very strange...my first thought was that i had left something, maybe my wallet, CC, etc. I called back the number (it was not the phone number listed for Countryside online, I believe it was Roman's personal number) and Roman answered and explained that after we left, our server had accidentally voided the transaction instead of adding the gratuity and finalizing it properly. As a result, Roman was trying to contact me so I could provide my credit card information again and they can re-run the transaction. Fair enough, mistakes happen, but this raised more questions than answers, specifically how Roman had gotten my phone number when only my name and the last 4 of my credit card were on the receipt. He said that a Des Plaines police officer happened to be in the restaurant, so he asked the officer to run my name and look up my information, and apparently the officer complied (which I feel is a whole different issue). Roman even mentioned that he knew the town I live in (nearby, but not Des Plaines). This all felt like a major privacy violation, and involving the police to look up someone's personal information when they did nothing wrong seems pretty unethical. I said as much to Roman and he said "ok I'll just tell the server that we couldn't get ahold of you and there's nothing I can do". I told him I wasn't trying to take money out of anyone's pocket, just trying to explain that this is not how you should handle this situation. I gave him the CC info so he could re-run the transaction, he thanked me, and that was that. Overall, an incredibly strange situation that has left a bad taste in my mouth. Next time, it's probably a better idea to just chalk the mistake up to poor training of staff and eat the $75 tab rather than leave a customer feeling like their privacy was violated. This was in our regular rotation of bars/restaurants to visit, and I don't know that I'll be going back after this.

Loved the outdoor space look. Bummed it was raining because I would have looked forward to hanging out there. The service was excellent. Mimi was the dedicated waitress that we had and she was very courteous and attentive. I ordered the taco wrap and it did not disappoint.

Nice atmosphere, friendly service. The outdoor patio area was currently getting a makeover, so it was not open, but I could see that space as really a perfect space in the summer.

AMAZING SERVICE!!!!! I was served by a gentleman named David. Splendid time I had at countryside as always. David was quick and efficient at our table and has a great sense of humor!!! Keep up the great work man!

Only offer 4 deserts and ran out of the carrot cake on a Saturday night??? Wasn't told until AFTER I already paid for a to-go piece and then was told owner was "running home" to get some more cake and it would be 15 minutes. Forty minutes later, finally left with no desert and was even charged for the tax on a $10.50 piece of cake I never ate. They could have at least offered me another cocktail (instead of the iced tea that I wasn't drinking, my husband was). Waitress was nice so didn't want to make a big deal but not sure I'd recommend or ever go back. Update after owner's comments: 1 star rating because food was good not great so at best would have been a 4 stars. -1 point for running out of 1 of 3 deserts (ice cream doesn't count). Sorry, shame on you for not being better at anticipating your sports bar's needs. -1 point for not after, I don't know, 20 minutes, saying we'll comp your desert for the inconvenience or at least offering me another glass of wine, not a drink I wasn't even drinking. And lastly, -1 point for when finally after probably another 20 minutes I said I just wanted a refund, the waitress just went to the register and grabbed $11. So there was no receipt, no giving me back my $10.50 +tax, just here's $11, sorry, goodnight. If, in your comment, you had been even a little apologetic to me, I probably would have deleted or changed my review. I'm now looking at what other websites I can leave my totally honest review on your restaurant, oops, sorry, sports bar that doesn't focus on deserts but charges $10.50 for a single piece of carrot cake. Got it.

We have frequented the CS for quite sometime. It’s convenient, has great ambiance and has great pizza and beverages. On our most recent stop I ordered a Crispy fried Chicken Sandwich and the Crispy Fried Chicken salad. Beneath the thick breading was an almost nonexistent cut of chicken that when I went to cut it I had to tear the piece apart. The chicken on the salad was also over cooked and disappointing. Another person we were with had the corned beef sandwich, turned out to be flavorless. I clearly recall the food being generous and tasty. I hope this post elevates your awareness that you have a problem and hope that you will take steps needed to rectify.

Truly happy to see Countryside is still going strong. As an early adult who lived very close by, my friends and I would meet up here quite often for late night food and drinks -- almost always ordered the pizza, which was never less than amazing. When the Jordan-led Bulls were winning championships, we watched many of the playoff games here. Always a great time. I no longer live in Illinois, but whenever I'm back for an infrequent visit to my old stomping grounds, I always stop by Countryside and am never disappointed. Thanks for so many great memories, and here's to your continued success!

My fiance and I really wanted to like this place, but it feels like high school. We moved very close and would like to find a neighborhood bar/restaurant to be frequent flyers at. There was a young female brunette server talking to another female server about how her "boyfriend" is the bartender and to stay away from him. Doesn't seem very appropriate to be talking to a co-worker like that on the floor in front of patrons. The food was good, the service was mid and the atmosphere would have been great if all of the staff acted age appropriate.
