Honestly one of the best pubs I've ever been to. The food was traditional and executed to perfection. Staff was welcoming and pleasant. I can't wait to go back.

Came here randomly and sat at the upstairs bar. Ellen was absolutely amazing! So pleasant and attentive. Had the black angus sliders with truffle fries which were heaven *chefs kiss* Ellen made a mean mezcal espresso martini & a mezcal Paloma! Will definitely be back for her. Thank you, Ellen!

As an Irishman Shane made my experience at this bar feel right at home. I haven’t had quite as good of a Guinness poor in more than 5 years. Shane you’re the man thanks man.

The Kerryman is my favorite spot in Chicago - great food, an awesome atmosphere, and amazing service. Tonight only reinforced why I love this place. There was a mix-up with my online order, and the staff went above and beyond to make it right - far more generous than expected. Thank you, Trevor. We’ll see you soon for a pint!

Great spot for drinks after dinner (or to eat too)! Stopped were with some girlfriends after dinner for drinks. Great neighborhood spot with multiple levels and TVs to watch sports games. Alcoholic and NA options available. Our server provided mocktail options for dry January. I had the spicy paloma mocktail, which I’d order again!

We recently had our wedding welcome drinks at Kerryman. Their team was very responsive and helpful throughout the planning process. On the day of the event, we had the best time! Despite having more people than we planned for, Kerryman was flexible and kind to all of our guests. Guests are still raving about the ambiance and good times to kick off the wedding weekend. Thank you!

Hands down. A staple spot for good food, good service and good company. If you’re looking for a no frills, local real Irish restaurant- this is it.

Food was great, ALL service people were kind, engaging, and on point. It ran like a well oiled machine, but all staff took a little time with you (not transactional). The atmosphere was lively and fun. My waitress went out of her way to just be thoughtful. I had the shepards pie and bread pudding. Hope I can return.

Definitely order the black angus sliders, they were flavorful and good in portion for starters. They had happy hour drinks available, and mimosas were an option! I have never tried fish and chips so this was my first time and it was amazing. The portion sizes were fulfilling and the fish was crispy and light. The potatoes wedges were nice and thick as well. The inside was cozy, with a nice rich wooden, Irish style pub theme. The bathrooms are all the way downstairs which can be tricky to find but I like how you can sit upstairs because they have hooks on the wall to hang your jackets.
