"Black Iron closed in December. The San Soo team wanted to give the bar’s owners a chance to communicate with staff members before making the announcement. Black Iron had a two-year run." - Ashok Selvam

The food was pretty solid, the service wasn't great, but the outdoor seating and grub more than compensated for it. The mushroom burger was made well and the buffalo chicken wrap was pretty good as well.

A very stylish pub with a decent selection of beers and drinks. The food seemed very average by the menu descriptions, so I passed. The bar was lively, though the bar did feel very disrupted by our presence, like everyone knew each other and we were interrupting. The bartenders were nice, though they were not the most attentive. Overall, not a bad experience, but nothing creating the desire to return.

This bar is amazing! It quickly became one of my favorite spots in the city! Staff is awesome and it amazed me how every dish I tried was phenomenal. So far, my favorite dish is their potato skins. You can even listen to late-night drunken confessions in their confessional booth, which is tons of fun! Highly recommend this bar.

The place is trendy and pleasant to visit. The staff is very outgoing and energetic. Food is very good for bar food and they have many selections. Outside patio is enjoyable to to watch games. Nice place to stop for a casual dining or drinks. Management really goes out of their way to make sure you feel welcome and at home. I would recommend to anyone.

Amazingly accommodating staff, warm and up-paced. Insanely good burger. High quality cocktails with a bumping, large outdoor patio. The music is loud, so it's more like a bar than it is a restaurant. I'd definitely go back.

Got lost. Found this tavern. really good food. cool choice of beers (and they have a full bar). I like the glass wall, which even inside gives one an outdoor feeling, not like most taverns where one feels locked up. Also have a nice outdoor patio. Cool decor. I'll be back.

Really nice venue. Main area is built around the main bar which is iron shaped. So that's cool. Also there's a downstairs area that's pretty sizeable but kind of underdeveloped. Unfortunately the night I went there seemed to only be one bartender but plenty bar backs. Needless to say, it took a good while to get a drink. Four stars!

They've created such a great atmosphere here, inside and out! Every time we come there are more games (omg giant jenga), patio upgrades, new drinks, food and specials. Awesome service! And their wings...whoa. On point. Highly recommend this spot if you want somewhere to chill and day drink outside on a nice day 😊
