We love a good local spot with spicy food & yummy drinks!!! Extra bonus when there’s the little music/vending thing going on. Such a vibe!!

French onion soup is out of this world! All of the food is amazing, but I haven’t had French onion soup like that in my life! Also obsessed with their spicy Dijon sauce with tenders and fries

R Public House really came through with their Pancakes of the Week. They were big, fluffy, and honestly just so good. They came with strawberry coulis, a big scoop of ice cream, and fresh peaches on top — simple, but already fire. Of course, I had to put a little razzle-dazzle on it. I added two layers of mixed berry jam with the strawberry coulis, then put apricot jam on the top layer. I made a warm homemade syrup with butter, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and regular syrup, and poured it right over the stack. Perfect. The crazy part is I could’ve eaten the pancakes exactly as they came and still raved about them. If I had whipped cream, I probably would’ve ordered another one for later. If you’re in Rogers Park, definitely try these pancakes. They’re worth it.

Everything was great. They were pretty busy so we did have to wait a while for drink refills, ect but overall great stop!

Very sad to see that one of my favorite places in the neighborhood has changed so much. I loved to order these dates because they were very tasty, great to share and come in a bigger amount. Last week I went back and I found it very overpriced and just 6 dates for $15?!!? Sad to say I won't be back and don't recommend the place anymore.
