    Every single time that I’m in here, I try something new, and it never disappoints. Whether it be drinks or food, 12/10 every time. And the staff are all amazing. So kind and attentive and they make sure to take care of you. If I’m in the city, I will go out of my way to visit.

    Came here for the first time and had a great experience. The food came out hot and tasted great. I got the chicken tenders and my boyfriend got the burger which he loved as well. Great atmosphere and can't wait to come back with our doggo and sit outside!

    Great atmosphere, cool drinks, and yummy food! I love the onion soup and burger combo. The cook always has everything so fresh and delicious. My go-to is the onion soup, the cheese is always oozing and is amazing!

    Fantastic neighborhood place! The happy hours are amazing and leave you feeling full. Trivia on Wednesday is always fun, and I've never had a bad meal! This hidden gem is defiantly a staple for a bite to eat and a drink.

    The staff is friendly. The beer is cold. There are TVs everywhere, so it's perfect for watching sports. The patio area is amazing and always elaborately decorated. Nobleman is a great place to go for a dinner with friends, a casual beer, or for a fun trivia night!

    Wonderful service and very useful and I am really looking this service.The best part about it was that they were genuinely pleased to serve us, no hint of annoyance or inconvenience in their demeanor. As we carried our pizza home, we heard footsteps behind us and lo and behold it was one of the lovely servers chasing us down to return a card we left at the bar. Talk about service!!! We couldn't stop talking about our wonderful experience there the rest of the trip and decided to eat there for breakfast/lunch on our last day in town where they continued to outdo themselves in service,

    We just hosted a lovely event at the Irish Noblemen. We had a wonderful experience of being with Shawn. Our going away party could not be more memorable, he made this experience such a lovely event for us. I would highly recommend anyone to this super lively neighborhood spot

    A West Town weekly staple. Food is consistently amazing, service is top notch (Sean is the man), summertime patio is a vibe, and friendly patrons. This neighborhood wouldn't be the same without the Nobleman. Love that they started adding weekly food specials.

    Great place overall. Went on Saint Patrick's Day so it was crowded. Got some food to go that was pretty good. Woman at the door was super nice. There was a bar tender that saw me waiting forever, did not acknowledge me then helped some, assuming a regular, that just pushed up to the side of the bar.

  • 5/5 Erin G. 1 year ago on Google
    10/10 - the Nobleman is exactly what you want in a neighborhood bar! Super friendly staff and owners, great drinks and yummy bar food - don't miss out on their chicken fingers! During the summer the dog-friendly patio, which is adorned with flowers, is a great hangout space and in the winter there is a cozy fireplace and shuffleboard.

    I’m a big fan of Irish pubs. So any time I’m in the mood for a frosty beer or a tasty meal, I always come here. I’ve always had a great experience every time, from ordering food and drinks, to talking to the staff. They’re super nice, and make me feel at home. The staff is also very knowledgeable about the products on the menu, so I’m never left wondering what to order when I come here. I’ve tried a lot of their food and drinks and I’ve never been disappointed.

    Looks like Irish Nobleman is already setting up for Christmas and I can't wait! Thanks for being the bright light in our community, we appreciate all you do. Seriously excited to see what the world's best neighborhood bar does for the holidays this year ❤

    Great neighborhood bar. The employees work very hard and are so friendly. By my second time in there they already recognized me again. The food is great for an Irish pub. Fish n chips and Chicken tenders are amazing. It’s such a great Chicago Irish pub. I really hope they get their big patio back. They got screwed by the city and alderman. The patio was much needed for the neighborhood as there aren’t a lot of other options around. Nonetheless, nobleman still rocks and I love it. Friendly people, good food and good times. Wether you’re there for a quick drink or there for a while, it never disappoints.

    Sean was incredible! We tried the new poblano corn dip and it did not disappoint! So good!! Definitely try this app if you’re planning to visit soon! Love this bar and the folks that make it great! Would recommend to anyone in west loop/west town area.

    My husband and I had our wedding reception at this friendly neighborhood pub. We couldn’t recommend more having any type of event here! When planning our reception they handled every detail from menu to specialty cocktails. The food and drinks were delicious. I want to thank Nina and Kelly for putting together such an awesome night!! The owner Declan was wonderful and even helped through the night of our wedding. They truly made our day so special! The staff was attentive, friendly, and so much fun. They know how to put on a great party!

    Came to the Irish Nobleman Pub during the latest bout of below freezing temps in Chicago mid-polar-vortex. First, we were just so happy they were even open! We were getting a little stir crazy, so we walked over. Shawn greeted us at the door and since it was so cold he seated us in front of the cozy fireplace🥰 the rest of our time here was excellent. Shawn read us the specials, let is know his recommendations, and they were spot on! He stopped over plenty of times to make sure we had absolutely everything we needed and was so lovely to chat with. The pub is such a cornerstone of the neighborhood, and people like Shawn and the wonderful food will keep us coming back for years to come.

    Sad to say this place is so disappointing for multiple reasons. Wanted to love it as it’s right in my neighborhood, but not only are all the drinks over priced for what you’re getting, the food is pure garbage. It’s like literally just frozen and microwaved. It’s hot and cold in random places and nothing is fresh. Saw someone literally order jimmy johns to deliver while they had drinks here and if that doesn’t sum it up I don’t know what will.-Additionally post reply, I had nothing bad to say about service they were friendly enough, not really all together but they did their best. And I wasn’t the one who ordered outside food I saw it happened and we laughed because we get it. I’ve tried to eat here 3 different times even after being warned by neighbors on how terrible the place is for drinks and food. As far as price, your response is actually not only terrible backhanded customer service but also doesn’t make sense. I have gotten multiple kinds of cocktails, beer, and wine from different times and all have been subpar whether it be sizing, the type of wine, or how watered down they were. I really TRIED to love this place but the response just made it worse 😂 I don’t need a $3 mimosa, I’m good with paying $10 for a good glass of wine and $12 for a great cocktail. And I will continue doing so at other better local restaurants ☺️

    Of the top, this place is the best pub I've been to in Chicago. Came in on a Wednesday evening for happy hour, it was pretty empty, just a few regulars. Service was prompt and friendly, ordered the ghost pepper wings, pretzel and poutine with a Guinness. The Guinness here was the best I've ever had, perfectly poured and incredibly smooth. The poutine was pretty hefty for the price and was very meaty, wings were a good size and the flavor was great though not super spicy. The pretzel was a bit on the small side and didn't compare to the German pubs around, but wasn't bad. Had some of the donuts with chocolate sauce for dessert, they were pretty good, similar to beignets. Overall a great neighborhood bar, definitely planning in coming back.

    I will say I’m from Texas and since we called this place they have been nothing but amazing. Brittany the bartender is amazing. Us southerners take hospitality very seriously and she made me feel like I was back home in Texas!!! 5 stars to this place and 1000 stars to Brittany.

    For those of you wondering, this Irish bar is indeed owned by an Irish Man named Declan. He's pretty chill. Came up to my group while were were eating and was telling us about the fixtures and where everything in there came from. Kinda cool. Nice beer selection and my partner said her fancy drink (lavender lemon martini or something) was really good. Recommend the fried pickle chips and burgers

    Come here loads and always top notch service and staff. Great service, great food, great people. Special shout-out to Shawn, our server, and Pascual, the chef, for the best street corn dip. Nobleman is where it's at, definitely recommend

    We were hungry and unsuccessful in our hunt for food leading up to this. We saw on their door they served pizza until 2am and boy they didn't play! Initially, we were told the kitchen was closed, but on our way out a fella stopped us and asked why we were leaving (he must have seen the sadness and hunger on our faces) because he said "we have pizza!" and in a blink of an eye their entire team rallied together and got us two pies in the oven. The best part about it was that they were genuinely pleased to serve us, no hint of annoyance or inconvenience in their demeanor. As we carried our pizza home, we heard footsteps behind us and lo and behold it was one of the lovely servers chasing us down to return a card we left at the bar.

    The Irish Nobleman is classic neighborhood spot. Neighborly vibes, good food and drinks. Very accommodating for non alcoholic drinks. The bartender, Adrien, made an awesome NA Mai tai. Our server, Shawn, was great. Can’t wait to come back!

    Stopped by for a quick drink. It's near where I live and I had never gone inside. It's a sports bar, and there were at least 6-8 TV's on in each room, playing a Football game. Great place if you're into sports. Not my jam at all. It's not really an Irish pub in my book, as the purpose of the place isn't the company you go with, but rather just a place to scream loudly at a TV. They have food which I didn't try. Servers were nice. All of our drinks were $8 each. My friend had a Tito's and stuff, I had a Jameson, and my girlfriend had a Guinness.

    This place has been a weekly go-to since I moved to the neighborhood several years ago, even more so this winter since they had great tented and heated outdoor seating! They also had amazing holiday decorations and a holiday pop-up shop with a bunch of local artists. Very cool place!

    We were a little apprehensive to try out this place, but it ended up so worth it. We ordered cheeseburgers and were told that they are locally sourced and you could totally tell with the quality of the meat. Hands down, one of the best burgers I've ever had (it was the Wisco Burger!). Had our food served by the bald guy and he was super friendly and very talkative. 10/10 will be returning

    Stopped in here for a quick lunch before we kept exploring Chicago, and I'm glad we did! The Fish and Chips with fresh cut fries for me were fantastic! Also they have great non-alcoholic drinks and craft cocktails alike. We were there for $3 mimosas so we had a few of those each with lunch and they weren't skimpy small cups, definitely worth it! It's a great spot to check out while you're in town on vacation or in the area - highly recommended!

    Irish Nobleman is the Chicago neighborhood bar everyone wants! Drinks great, food great and consistent including gluten free options, and we just love it. Whether it’s popping in for mimosas or for dinner and cocktails, we come here year round. (And we love Sean who is often our waiter, such a gem). Highly recommend and feel lucky to have it be in my neighborhood.

    We enjoy eating out. This last year has put a damper on that. For St. Patrick's Day we went to this delicious place which some good friends recommended to us. We enjoyed a delightful experience there with great meal and a really well preared corned beef that was melt in your mouth tender and juicy. Shepards Pie, Fish and Chips, and the Poutine were also delectable. We will certainly put this fine restaurant at the top part of our list and we will certainly go again very soon. Highly recommended to anyone considering or looking for a fine Irish Pub in the city of Chicago.

    Comfortable pub feel with awesome food. Tucked in a friendly, clean, neighborhood, my favorite is coming here in the summer and having lunch on the patio with all the dogs. Great dog-friendly patio and $3 mimosas on the weekends. Can't beat it!

    I loved the food. We got the bison burger, wings, and the burger and grilled onions. The fries had seasoning salt and were delicious. Our sweet potato fries were cooked to perfection the way I like them crispy and not greasy.

    This is absolutely my favorite place in the area! The best bar food you might ever have, wonderful beer and spirit selection, friendly staff, and a nice relaxed atmosphere that was covid rule observant (unlike a lot of places in the city!) Try the nachos and Chicago's best mac & cheese or is it Chicago's best hamburger?!

  • 1/5 Hannah O. 2 years ago on Google
    Fried pickles were over salted, dipping sauce was good but its spicy. The fried ruben eggrolls are mostly just cheese, they were ok, dont order if you expect a ruben. Drinks were fine, we ordered black and tan, a few shots and laganitas. The service was terrible. We had one server when we came in who just disappeared and then when we finally got our other server he was not very attentive, we likley would have ordered more food and drinks if he checked in on the table. There was also a couple being waited on hand and foot by a server who didnt seem to have any other tables.... not a good look when you have one server clearly struggling and your pulling out all the stops for ONE table. Then it came time to pay. Card was declined. Tried again, delclined.... we eventually got cash, plus they have a ATM in the bar. The server was convinced it was my card, it wasnt. After calling the bank they could see that the issue say with the merchants card reader. I had no issues running my card before or after this place. The whole experience was irritating and just bad. I will say the woman that welcomed us into the bar was the best part about the whole thing. She smiled and was very nice.

    Nestled in a quiet, pleasant neighborhood of West Town is one of the best bars I've ever been to. My friends and I were staying in an Airbnb a few doors down and happened upon it coming home from a night out. We were hungry and unsuccessful in our hunt for food leading up to this. We saw on their door they served pizza until 2am and boy they didn't play! Initially, we were told the kitchen was closed, but on our way out a fella stopped us and asked why we were leaving (he must have seen the sadness and hunger on our faces) because he said “we have pizza!” and in a blink of an eye their entire team rallied together and got us two pies in the oven. The best part about it was that they were genuinely pleased to serve us, no hint of annoyance or inconvenience in their demeanor. As we carried our pizza home, we heard footsteps behind us and lo and behold it was one of the lovely servers chasing us down to return a card we left at the bar. Talk about service!!! We couldn't stop talking about our wonderful experience there the rest of the trip and decided to eat there for breakfast/lunch on our last day in town where they continued to outdo themselves in service, entertainment and overall hospitality. Bridget (I believe was her name) served us and was as sweet as a peach. She felt like an old friend; very attentive, humorous, and welcoming. Overall, I haven't had such good service from a bar/restaurant like this in years. The Irish Nobleman truly knows how to run a business. It was like an all-in-one adult playground with corn hole, trivial pursuit, big checkers, a banging playlist, wonderful outdoor seating, a fantastic menu (food and drinks), staff with authentic Irish accents, the whole kit and kaboodle. I wish the Nobleman was my backyard neighborhood bar. If you happen upon it, do not miss an opportunity to try it out for yourself!

  • 1/5 Andy W. 2 years ago on Google
    Super expensive drinks that have to be ordered on some app. They take up 7 parking spots bc the owner is buddies w the city. It's as if your hillbilly cousin threw all his random lawn furniture in the street, permanently. The food is some of the worst bar food in the city, maybe American. If you're in the neighborhood and want a good bar, go to twisted spoke.

  • 5/5 David 2 years ago on Google
    Great service. Fair pricing for the area. Fun atmosphere with great details, decor, staff, and social distance pactices. Really enjoyed the western burger which was cooked perfectly to medium with crispy onion rings on top. The cream puffs, fresh warm donuts, eclairs, and ice cream for dessert was all worth a try - dangerous because they're all really tasty and because we really like desserts. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Michael W. 2 years ago on Google
    Great pandemic practices and layout. Top notch planning and execution from a safety standpoint. There were some hiccups with the ordering system but the staff was helpful in making things right. Overall I recommend and will be back.

    Cozy Irish themed neighborhood pub. The fish & chips are delish. Nice beer & cider selection. Seating outside with heaters. Spaced tables inside.

  • 4/5 Matt S. 2 years ago on Google
    Good UK/Irish breakfast. Sausages were dead good. They used barbecue baked beans though instead of proper red sauce baked beans.. Still enjoyed the heck out of it

  • 1/5 Haley M. 2 years ago on Google
    Went here a couple months ago and you could smell the sewage seeping out of the bathroom while seated at the bar. We brought our drinks outside and it was cute out there but the drinks tasted awful (cocktails from their own menu.) Won’t be coming back.

  • 5/5 Richard T. 2 months ago on Google • 1 review New
    Food: amazing. Drinks: amazing. Service: amazing. Ambiance: amazing. Really though. The wings are huge so you’re actually getting your money’s worth for once. Pizza is fantastic (think cheese-pull) and their selection of beers seltzers and ciders is impressive for a place this size! Our server, Shawn, was so attentive and covered all the menus for us! Even recommended adding chorizo to their poblano corn dip, which was a total game changer. 100% worth a stop in if you haven’t been yet! Sit by their fireplace!
