“The fish and chips won me here.”

The fish and chips won me here! Crispy and you actually get fish instead of heavy breading. The fries were great too. I normally don't eat tartar sauce but this one was good.

“Stopped here after the Bears/Rams game for a bite.”

Stopped here after the Bears/Rams game for a bite. I was seated fast by a friendly host. The place has a cool ambience and was perfect for watching the snow come down as I was seated at a window. I had the hummus and the fish and chips. Both were so so good!!! Tartar was perfect as was the fish and slaw. Will definitely eat here again when I come back!

This was a great mid afternoon stop for me and my family… My daughter‘s absolutely loved the chicken pot pie. It looked fresh and homemade… Something you’d have at your grandma‘s house… I had the butter chicken… My wife had the fish and chips… Each were very tasty and plentiful… A great great stop lots of flavor… The staff was warm and friendly, and the setting is just awesome…

“First time here and I was greatly impressed.”

First time here and I was greatly impressed! The service and atmosphere was matched by the high quality of the food for a great pub experience located in Chicago's loop. I would come back here again without question.

“Arianna the bartender is very personable.”

Arianna the bartender is very personable. I was in at lunch. Didn't eat this time, but have before (shepherd pie YUMMM!) She had a big party plus people at the bar and it didn't phase her at all. Hosts were nice too! I'm in this biz and I would hire them all!

“I had a great experience at Elephant & Castle.”

I had a great experience at Elephant & Castle. The service was very quick and efficient, and our waiter was exceptional — he recommended everything we ordered, and each pick was spot-on. I started with the Bees and Knees cocktail, which was delicious. We shared the Brussels sprouts appetizer (without prosciutto), and it was a definite hit. I also enjoyed the salad that came with the Baja fish tacos. I’m not usually a fan of soft-shell tacos, but I appreciated that they toasted the shells — it made all the difference. The Bears game was on (and we won!), which added to the lively, upbeat vibe in the restaurant. For dessert, I tried the bread pudding. The flavor was nice, but it was a bit too thick for my taste. I cut it in half and asked for extra sauce, which helped. Overall, great food, great service, and a fun atmosphere. I’d definitely come back!

“Fish and chips were great.”

Fish and chips were great. Portion was a little small on the fish. But they give option for 2nd filet. Beer selection was good and nicely chilled. Had a Boddingtons which I haven’t been able to get in a while. Bartender was fantastic keeping my water filled.

“simply superb experience with a wide variety of dishes, and it all seemed very healthy as well.”

simply superb experience with a wide variety of dishes, and it all seemed very healthy as well. peak American/british food, and while you can sit outside, I would not recommend it because it's right next to the screeching trains and it'll be impossible to hear each other. indoor area is very spacious, typical dish here is about $20
