Reviews
River Shannon is a nice open-air bar that maybe has the best dogs in Lincoln Park. As you ascend the steps to walk in, the bar's main dog, Callie, immediately rolls over for pets as your entrance fee. She will then lightly bark at other patrons for more pets, and she loves other dogs.
They have a full beer, wine, and liquor menu, and while the bartender who served us was fairly inexperienced in making cocktails, he did express interest in how he did and wanted to know how he could do better in a non-intrusive way.
Music was a little bit too loud for my tastes, but the atmosphere was that of a bunch of close-knit Chicagoans enjoying the beautiful weather and each other's company. I'm not certain if there was food there or not so I didn't rate them for that.
The bar is extremely well-kept and clean, the woodwork is beautiful and was obviously done by an old-school artisan, and the outdoor seating was plentiful but packed. Still, you got a great breeze from outside through the wonderfully open layout. Highly recommended.
Stopped in for a quick drink on our way home. It was exactly what I'd expect from a small Irish pub. It was a slow time of day but we had fast and friendly service. Would definitely go back again.
This is a great little local bar! Heather, Jake and Doug are super nice and very good bartenders. Highly recommend.
This is the first dog friendly bar I have ever been to! We loved it we were greeted by some sweet little fluffy dogs. We didn't actually drink any alcohol but I seen they had a personal favorite on tap. We were out enjoying the sites and stumbled across it and decided to stop. We had looked at the menue on line and decided we would try it out. This is also the first restaurant we have been to that you order your food on line and it was delivered from a separate restaurant. I'm sure it had to do with covid restrictions to some extent. But we had zero complaints the food was delicious and the atmosphere was fantastic!
River Shannon is a wonderful Irish pub in Lincoln Park. We had a large group / private event there, and the staff is great to work with. We had a few of teh River Shannon pizzas, and we utilized the catering that River Shannon works with. Food, service, drink was all excellent. We'd go back again!
River Shannon is the top notch dog bar. I only wish I lived closer! Not only do they *tolerate* dogs, but they *welcome* them.
They have a fire hydrant of treats in the main entrance. There are arcade games, a great selection of beers and other drinks, and you're even able to bring your own food to eat.
Sometimes the bartenders will bring in their own dogs. We once saw one with a puppy. It was too cute!
I absolutely love bringing my dog to River Shannon. It's the perfect place to go with a few of your pups friends for a get-together. Thinking of hosting an unofficial puppy party there for my dogs birthday in December! They truly are the best.
All-round decent, nothing special by any means. But good looks Emily on the Gloriana - Wild at Heart song recommendation. It adds a bit of much appreciated spice & variety to my workout playlist.
If you have a dog and you like to drink beer, this is the place. Dogs roam free and everybody knows them. Very laid-back and fun.
