About this business

From the masterminds behind Avec and Blackbird, the Publican is a European-themed restaurant focused on using quality ingredients and serving over 100 types beer. The decor is reminiscent of a European beer hall, complete with rich wood accents from the wainscoting to the high back chairs and communal tables. The menu features seafood, vegetables and meat, specifically pork. The cuisine changes with the seasons and dishes have included striped bass, sweetbread and pork country ribs.

One of our favorite foodie haunts back in the day. Too sterile and uncomfortable now. There are many better options in the neighborhood. Flavors are muddled. Service is slow and rude. Pass on by unless you are a tourist looking to pretend you have eaten well in Chicago..

Great service. Creative menu. Cool area! Had variation of eggs Benedict. Poached on sourdough with arugula and Italian ham. Biscuits awesome too! Outdoor seating was perfect.

A trip to Chicago without a meal—or two—at the Publican is a wasted trip. The food, the service, the atmosphere- all excellent! And the menu is a constant revelation. Hands down, my favorite restaurant. Period.
