If you want a wide selection of beers and good food, then I highly reccommend a visit to this place. Great service, we did have to wait a small while for a table (we were in a large group). The food was really good and the beers which are on offer are amazing. Definitely worth a visit

I've been here twice, and while the food is delightful (sad the polenta fries are gone, though!) it is definitely the top-of-the-line Revolution beers that make this place one of the best places to go for a drink in Chicago. Any style you choose is going to be a winner. My only complaint is that it is a very dangerous... More

While looking for a Chicago brewery to visit, we were referred to Revolution Brewery by local friends and were not disappointed! We went on a Saturday evening and the place was packed, but it only took about 20 minutes to get a seat. The waiting area is pretty spacious and a waitresses took our drink orders. Our seat, an elevated... More

We ate, we drank, and we were merry. Good food, good drinks and nice atmosphere. Service was a tad slow, but otherwise had a great time. They didn't rush us out, let us sit, drink and hang at out table for a couple hours. Fun place to go with a group.

Great diverse beer selection. I had 3 varieties and all were excellent. Food was very good. Even though only street parking is available, it was not a problem getting a spot nearby.

Most places that I visit that are this outrageously popular are accompanied by a dose of attitude from the staff. However, I was delighted by the service that we received at the bar. I can't wait to go back when it's warm enough to open up the front windows.

If you want somewhere a little different, the give Revolution Brewing a try. It's very relaxed and casual but has a great atmosphere. The main draw is the vast selection of home brew beers which are great, we tried Anti Hero. The food was also very good, we had sweet potato cakes which were gorgeous, a little hint of spice... More

A beauty of a room..well thought out with expensive taste...the beer is great but the bartenders are just too cool for school...tattoos and a beard doesn't make you cool...too much attitude for what is essentially a brew pub..

The food, and fresh brewed beer here makes it a necessary pit stop on any trip to Chicago, even if it's the one spot you're eating during a layover. The food is outstanding, and the brew is too. I could recommend certain fresh made beers etc, but in point of fact, they are all changing, and outstanding. There's a great... More

Amazing selection of beers, many of which are available to take home in growlers...Burgers looked and smelled fabulous, but I opted for vegetarian options. Sweet potato cakes yummy as bite size appetizers. Pecan crusted tofu on braised vegetables was excellent. Great menu, something for everyone to eat and drink...Great vibe and energy. Can't wait to return.
