Great bar with good bar food. We got the fried samplers and it was so much food for 4. The pizza is good too, thin crust

Not a Bad Place!

Pizza is very good, tables tend to be a bit too small esp. for pizza, can get a little noisy at times, decent place for lunch and early dinner

My kind of place!

Chief's is a solid sports bar in Lake Forest. It's our "go to" spot for great food and solid beer choices. It's usually very busy when we are there, so that has to mean it's the place to be. A young local family owns it,...More

Uneven food and service

Chiefs really should be one of the "go to" places for families in Lake Forest but, unfortunately, the restaurant's food and service haven't lived up to the opportunity. The best you can say about the food is that it is average - although some swear...More

Good food, excellent service can be expected

Whenever in the Lake Forest area there are a few choice dining locations I tend to frequent, and Chief's rates as the preferred lunch spot. Service is always friendly and attentive. The food selections are varied, well proportioned (at least at lunch), and served hot....More

Great spot for dinner, good beer, and with kids

Came here after a long day at Great America, looking for ‘real’ food and this did not disappoint! Nice smaller sized sports bar / pub atmosphere but was still friendly for kids (including a kids menu and all 3 enjoyed their food). Hubby enjoyed the...More

Great sports bar

Food, drinks and service are all great, as are the prices. The place has a casual, comfortable feel with lots of TVs to watch the White Sox and Bears when they are on (OK, you can also watch the Cubs if you must). High ceiling...More

Hidden with character

Hidden spot that you probably wouldn't see unless you were looking for it. Great decor and fun little spot for drinks and a bite to eat.

Thank you Karen P for the nice review. You're right, we are a little hidden but getting a review as nice as yours, brings us to light! Thank you for your business. Cheers!
