    Always a lovely time at North Shore Distillery. We enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and the wonderful drinks. We’ve never had bad service.

    Great Place! A former kitchen cabinet showroom makes it a nice space. Really good spirits. And their cocktails are fantastic. If you haven't tried this distillery, you should. We will definitely be back.

    The drinks were awesome but they are secondary to the amazing service we received. We arrived just before closing on a night where we were the only customers. Even though they could have easily closed for the night, they remained open and allowed us to have a wonderful night out. Will definitely go back!

    Absolutely love this distillery! The spirits are unmatched. You wont find a better gin. The owners are knowledgeable and very personable. My favorite distillery in a 4 state radius.

    What an absolutely incredible hidden gem!!! Beautiful space, and really exceptional quality spirits. I'm not generally a fan of vodka, but as the oldest distillery in IL, they've had plenty of time to get it right, and both the traditional vodka and citrus are delicious. The real treat is the tahitian vanilla vodka, both mixed and straight up. The rum is also super smooth, and aged with very creative flavors. The owners are both welcoming and friendly, and super knowledgeable. We will definitely be back.!

    I had drinks at North Shore this past Saturday evening. We decided to sit in the library section, which was nice and intimate. The manager was very accommodating and checked on us often and lit the fireplace. We had the old fashioneds, which were smooth and tasty. I look forward to a future visit.

    New Year's Eve Sonja answered a call to confirm curbside pick-up. She put together a New Year's Eve Cocktail Kit for pick-up. The unique ingredients were clearly labeled. The kit included detailed directions for mixing the cocktails along with pictures depicting the garnish options. Thank you for a wonderful close out to 2020 and beginning of 2021! Looking forward to future cocktail kit offerings!

    Great cocktails. A little pricey but very unique and of high quality. Awesome place to meet friends or go for a date. Will definitely return and recommend.

    This place is absolutely amazing. I don't want anyone else to come here because I don't want it to be too crowded for me... But everything I tasted or drank was soooo good. I can't wait to visit again! This time we had our friends birthday party here. The staff was wonderful we had a really good time.

    Amazing spirits, great cocktails, great vibe to hang out, and super nice. We just did the geek tour for the second time and it was awesome.

    Always a great experience, fresh new menus are the routine here! The ambiance is great with different themed seating areas. Staff is always so knowledgeable about the drinks, and the fresh ingredients included from their garden really set this place above your typical "we make, we serve it" distillery joints.

    I love this place. Food choices are limited but hey it's a distillery so who really needs food. Great spirits, awesome owners and bartenders.
