    Had the breakfast brunch menu and got the red something but it had eggs on it and was a bit spicy which was great and I liked it a lot. Would recomendable for that.

    I consider it be one of the best kept secrets in Chicago. Great BBQ, AWESOME cocktails (spiked root beer float, Bourbonade), fast service and plenty of TV's.

    Get the fried oreos for dessert! Tip: Ask for the Oreos in a separate plate so it doesn't melt the ice cream. Thank me later;)

    You must have at least one glass of whiskey, scotch, or bourbon... great selection.

    Staff is usually aloof and you wait quite a bit for a server. But the food is good- definitely try the BBQ pulled pork quesadillas.

    The Pitchfork Burger for $5 on Monday night is impossible to beat, and it even comes with a heap of fries. Really get your dollars worth.

    Try the chilli. It's amazing. They also have incredibly good biscuits. You almost don't want to put any meat on them.

    The 20% check-in was not honored when I was there in Saturday. They looked at me like I had three eyes. I'm pissed enough to not ever go back. Thanks, pitchfork.

    There's an eight round Geeks Who Drink pub quiz every Wednesday night from 8-10pm! (unless there's a major Chicago-related sporting event on TV)

    Surprisingly un-country based on the name. More of a sports-bar vibe.
