The restaurant itself is newer: Ballyhoo Hospitality, the group behind Lincoln Park's Gemini, opened it as a classic-American gastropub after construction ran well past its original spring-2024 target. Once it landed, the following built fast -- 4.8 stars across 591 reviews doesn't happen by accident. The fish and chips has become something of a cult order, but it's a Friday-only dish, so regulars plan their week around it rather than the other way around.
Any other night, birthdays get a comped dessert, a small touch that keeps showing up in the praise. Come summer, the patio is the seat people actually ask for -- a gastropub with actual neighborhood history baked into its name, not just borrowed branding.
