Firkin

Have always loved Firkin. Great lunch and dinner spot with festive twinkle lights lining the ceiling. Large bar with tons of drink options. I love the menu but wasn’t impressed with the cod tacos — incredibly under seasoned. Could’ve used a spicy sauce or more salt. I will still continue to come back here though!

When entering Firkins, the first thing I noticed was how massive the bar was. With both beers and wines on tap, there’s a plethora of alcohol offered. The overall aesthetic of the place was unique and festive. The staff is very friendly and speedy with their service. The options for cocktails, wines, and beers are massive.. If you decide to visit, make sure to keep an eye on the hours of operation as The hours are a little odd. When the weather is nice, it is pleasant to sit on the patio.

Stopped for a drink and really loved it. The atmosphere was great and the staff was friendly. I had the local old fashion and it was excellent. I'll for sure come back to this place when I'm in the area, and would recommend to anyone who enjoys a variety of drinks.

Nice restaurant, better location. The food here was pretty good. We had the tacos, burger, and some calamari. We had a mix drink, and one of their ciders. The calamari was definitely good. The burger was average. The tacos were delicious. The drinks we good as well. They had multiple choices for seating. Indoors, outdoors, or a side patio. The waiter was friendly and prompt. The decorations inside and out were pretty cool to look at. They had a front and rear entrance. However, the front entrance is not accessible. I found that a bit odd. I'm not sure if it was due to it being a weekday, or if it's always not in use. This is definitely a place we would frequent again. I just dont think they blew us away.

I had Huevos Rotos con Jamon. The fries were on point and the jamon was good. The Chicken schnitzel was very properly done, and the salad came as a good balance. I would have put a bit of extra flavor into it. Good selection of beers. The service was good and friendly.

I highly recommend Firkin. I had some time this afternoon to enjoy a nice lunch & went in just based on how it looked & the menu. I’m not surprised by all of the positive reviews. Great food, wonderful atmosphere & good service. If I lived nearby it would definitely become a regular spot. The arugula salad and mussels in white wine sauce were excellent!

Some of the worst service I’ve had in my entire life. I really wanted to like this place because the environment was fun and the beer selection was good. Unfortunately, I had the foamiest beer 3/4 foam! I’ve ever had in my entire life served here. I would’ve tried to ask the waiter about it but we went 30-40 minutes at a time between seeing him. In two hours, we were hardly able to order two drinks & dinner not for lack of trying to order more. Food was good, bar was nice, but service was unredeemable. Would not come back, and wouldn’t recommend when there’s so many other good spots in Libertyville.

Awesome experience, reservation takes money though!! Go through the back door though because the front is a fire exit! I had the steak which had german mustard seasoningFood: 5/5

The burgers are delicious, nice place to meet up with friends. I’d probably rather go for dinner than a work lunch break so that I could try some beers. The Bavarian pretzel appetizer was as good as the ones from the German beer garden in kenosha.

Drinks were fine. However, we are not dumb…. We know you were playing death core and heavy metal to make us want to leave earlier. It makes it uncomfortable to not feel welcomed… even if it is an hour till close. Lesson learned. Don’t come an hour before close… even if for just drinks. Take your money elsewhere.
