Editorial Review for Rock Bottom Restaurant & Brewery – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
This spacious restaurant's college feel is magnified by pool tables, young, denim-clad servers, and beer posters you might see in a dorm room. The menu offers plenty of good brewpub fare: Ribs and chicken are smoky and tangy, with a serious kick. Fragrant with beer, brown ale chicken has mushrooms and strips of chicken layered over white cheddar mashed potatoes. Beers are all brewed on-site, and range from Chicago Gold to Terminal Stout.

Insider Tips

Where to Sit

When weather permits, the view of River North and city skyscrapers from the roof is better than that of the chic young professionals within, glowing from the setting sun and a few after-work beers.

The Extras

A pool room just off of the bar area has six tables and eight televisions.

What to Drink

Can't decide which beer to try? The sampler offers tasting portions of eight different brews.

Having lived in NYC for years I'm no stranger to over priced drinks but this place is ridiculous! It's a local happy hour restaurant with bar food yet the mixed drinks are priced as if you are at a 5 star celeb hangout. Give me a break. I will never go back!!!

Cons: over-priced mixed drinks

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

what a great time we had! we stumbled on the bar after dinner on a saturday evening, so we had a few drinks and had a great time. the next day we were planning on going to espn zone to watch the jets game and they weren't playing the game! so we went right back to rock bottom to watch football... wings were delish!
