Worst Pub on Northshore

by ariesfire at Citysearch

This is the worst place to eat, drink, and just try to be merry! We went to this pub with a 30+ group from work and were seated in the dinning room at 3 seperate tables (with our backs to 1 large table) and as we were talking and laughing we were asked to move our party to their outside patio, just after we all ordered our dinners (this took thier waite staff 45 long minutes to finally place). We moved our party outside to then get carded, and yes we had a few under 21 (not drinking but enjoying the celebration with the rest) but as this was not a problem in the dinning room it somehow became one when we were moved...long story short, we where told that we couldn't go back into the dining room (it had been cleaned quickly...the only thing that was quick by the way), and we could not all sit and eat the meals that we ordered in the area that they had suggestly moved us to, but yet we were expected to pay for all the food and take it to go! They are the most unprofessional and rude pub I have ever been to. There are plenty of bars in Evanston that welcomed our group (and the plethora of money that came with us), and they will welcome yours too...don't waste your time on this place, food is average at best, the drinks take a long time to get, and the manager of this place is unbelieveably unprofessional and rude...it is not worth the long wait time nor the money..go next door to Prairie Moon where they have great food and fast service.

• Cons: terrible customer service

Lousy Service

by minumula at Citysearch

We went to dinner on one evening and we were seated at a table. The lady comes and says that the other person is your server and he will come and take your order. He never showed up at the table. Finally the other girl who is not the server tried to take our order. Every time we had to order we had to wave at some one to come to the table. At the end of the meal we asked the waiter to call the manager to ask why we were not being served. The manager just comes over and says I would appreciate if you stop being rude to my staff. The only thing we asked the staff was to get us some food and we were not happy with the service so we wanted to speak with the manager. He did not come and ask what the issue was and try to resolve it. He was just rude. I had been to this place, but will never go again
