In Short – This popular spot draws in crowds of white-collar workers for reasonably priced bar food and brews in a convivial setting. Dark wood booths and dim lighting make for an intimate atmosphere, while antique-style signage, knickknacks and bookshelves adorn the walls. Traditional pub grub includes Guinness Irish stew, shepherd's pie, and crispy battered fish, plus a massive chocolate brownie dessert with toffee ice cream large enough for four to share.

Great pub food!
by jbvv at Citysearch
We picked up a chicago tour book in the Watertower shopping center, and in it was a coupon for a free app at Elephant and Castle, so we tried it out. Being big pub food fans, we were impressed by the selection of tap beers, both domestic and import.
We ordered the chicken fingers and chips, and the fish and chips. Both were beer battered which was excellent!!! the fries were really great as well.
Typical pub decor, friendly staff, we will be back.
- Pros: Great food, great beers, great service
- Cons: bathrooms small
