Love this place! The perfect neighborhood bar/hangout. Friday fish fry is always on point. The staff is very friendly and services is amazing. Highly recommend.
I had a private birthday party at Burke's and it was an excellent experience. The events coordinator was extremely friendly, flexible, and completely willing to do whatever she could to help make the day special and hassle-free. Huge perks in choosing Burke's: it's steps from the Red Line, super friendly and cozy neighborhood atmosphere, customizable food/drink offerings and private bartender, use of sound system (I made my own playlist and ran it through the speakers), and definitely the best "bar food" around (though I hesitate to call it that because it's so good). When I forgot a birthday card, I got a text from the event coordinator and the next day, the card was waiting securely for me, it wasn't just thrown out. Because I live in a small apartment, the thought of ever hosting a party seemed very far-fetched to me, but now I would not hesitate to use Burke's private party room again. Highly recommend!!
Ever since I first walked in, this place has greeted me like family. Their food is reasonable and delicious. Exactly the neighborhood bar I was searching for where I can enjoy a meal, watch the game or just drop in for a pint.
Outstanding Friday fish fry! The fish is incredibly fresh have never had fish fry his good. Highly recommend. Drinks are fabulous too. Great staff!
First time. Maybe not a 5 because of service slow,
However not her fault. She was only waitress doing inside and the patio
Fried BBQ rib tips. OMG. Great
Will be back
Came here with my mom visiting from out of town, they were wonderful! They accommodated us on the patio with our two dogs and brought them water bowls! Larry checked in on us consistently and showed the dogs some love, it was perfect! Will definitely come back for the service and the food specials! Loved the salmon tacos and the California BLT!
Love this place. Fantastic neighborhood bar. Burke's is Edgewater's version of Cheers. Everybody is very friendly. Great place to watch sports...lots of TVs.
Great beer and food! Atmosphere is always welcoming! Highly recommend coming!
Great neighborhood pub. Great craft beer selection. Professional , caring staff and uber cool bar patrons.
This place is a blessing to the Edgewater neighborhood! Great staff, delicious food, awesome drinks, and reasonably priced!
Food was great, server Nikki was great, Brendan runs a great place!
My friend and I used Burke's private room for our birthday party (of about 25 people), and everything about the planning process and the night itself was easy and hassle-free. Catherine, the event coordinator, was extremely responsive via email and very accommodating. No fee to use the space, and we brought in our own playlist and cake (they even supplied the plates and silverware for us). No pressure to buy wristbands or a certain amount of food/drink. Catherine made sure my guests and I were well taken care of the entire night! Highly recommended for a relaxed gathering.

This place is Awesome in every respect! I've always had great service. Friendly staff and the food is great. Love to go there with all my family and friends.
Highly recommend Burkes!. Excellent food (LOVE the waffle fries!) and friendly service. Will be having a bridal shower brunch there in the near future. They've been very helpful in the menu planning for that.
I had my 60th birthday party at Burke's. It was awesome! We had the party room and it worked great. We NEVER had to ask for food to be brought out as they kept up with it all and replenished as needed. We had a dedicated bartender who was great. The staff were constantly clearing plates and glasses through our 3 hours there. Such a great place and such great staff!
This is an amazing corner pub. I brought a friend who was visiting from out of town. Neither of us had been there, and we were both impressed with the atmosphere, the quality of the food, the friendliness of the workers, and the overall vibe. My friend had decided that anytime he comes to visit, this is going to be the one place he will always need to come to for a meal and beer.
Love this cozy neighborhood pub. Rick was especially wonderful as my server. I was very comfortable dining alone. Burke burger and fries were great. Good draft selection.
I've been here before for drinks, and I have always enjoyed this Irish pub. But I finally came here for food recently, and was really impressed!! I'm from Buffalo, NY and I'm a tough critic on chicken wings, but the wings at Burke's are the real deal! Honestly probably my favorite wing in all of Edgewater & Uptown. And the Blue cheese was nice and chunky. I'll be coming back here in the future for food!
We went to Burke's for our wedding after party, after getting married down the street at Lytle House! The team at Burke's were all so kind, friendly, and accommodating! All of our guests had a blast getting drinks and hanging out there. It is spacious, upbeat, and great for events! Burke's Team- we really appreciate you accommodating us and we will definitely be back!
Drinks are STRONG. Didn't try to food because we got there late. Service was good! If you want the typical Saturday night pub experience this is a good spot.
The waiter was quick and attentive throughout the whole night, even though they were busy. Food was good - pub food as expected. Trivia is a good time here on Tuesdays!
Been coming here for years and always loved it. Today I mentioned a price on the menu didn’t match the bill. They wouldn’t adjust it, just said they’d” update their system”. The manager/bartender just ignored it instead of offering us the price on the menu. Definitely felt like bad customer service.
Great place to watch a football game on a Sunday afternoon. The spicy Bloody Mary's are amazing and I was super excited to find a place that has nachos with vegetarian chili!!
I can enjoy great food indoors and also in their outdoor patio this summer...I'm looking forward to enjoying the "best turkey burger" I've had ( since moving to Chicago)! Add the waffle fries or onion rings...you're living the dream. Don't forget to watch all your favorite sports (baseball games) on their TVs - you don't have to fight the crowds. Treat yourself this summer to Burke's.
This is a great place to hang/eat/drink. The food is really good, with good portions and weekly specials. The staff is excellent. From the bar tenders to the wait staff to the bussers. Everyone is friendly and efficient. The owner is really nice and always comes around to say hi to all the tables, he's very hands-on, and cares about everyone. The summer time is the best because of their outdoor patio. Definitely worth a visit.
This is another great neighborhood spot. 🤩We come here about once a month. Brandon is the owner and is interactive with the guests. 💗
Burke's is a nice neighborhood bar. It's got room and you can almost always get a seat - although the actual bar itself is small - maybe 10 chairs. They have plenty of table service.
Drinks are great! They will put on almost any game you want to watch. Patrons are also cool.
Was there just for a drink. On a whim ordered mango habanero wings, from weekly special. It took some time but the wings were so delicious that it was worth every minute and more... Will definitely go for some more wings 😁😁😁😋. This time all the star goes to the wings.
Great local pub serving your favorite comfort foods with the most amazing waffle fries and garlic aioli. The burgers, flatbreads and fish and chips are staples and you cannot go wrong with any of these. Whether your stopping in to watch sports, catch up with friends, play trivia, or sit out on the patio to relax and enjoy the weather.
Went tonight for the fish fry. Will be back soon. Friendly staff, server Gery, and owner Brendan. Felt welcomed the minute we walked in the door.
