Michelin Doesn’t Award Stars to Suburban Chicago Restaurants Anymore - Eater Chicago

"Howells & Hood, the large and popular beer bar and restaurant at the base of the Tribune Tower, will close for good after its last service on Sunday. The impending shutter was announced more than a year ago after new ownership bought the downtown landmark and negotiated a lease termination for the bar. The exact shutter date wasn’t announced until management shared it earlier this week." - Daniel Gerzina

I was lucky to have found this place so close to where I was staying. They have the best beer selections!!! Very impressed. And they have sample sizes so you won’t feel too overwhelmed. I also tried the chili and fried cheese curds. I don’t usually order chili but it was drizzling rain and sounded good. The cheese was delicious too.

Overall a good experience and a wonderful selection of drinks. However, we had an overcooked burger and over-sauced/salted noodle plate. The staff was very accommodating, and it is clear that they care about their reputation. Will visit again, but just for drinks.

Excellent selection of beer, both locals and mainstream. I started with the Bottlenectar from Goose Island. It was pretty good but had a weak finish. The waiter recommended the Lazurite from Warpigs brewing. Damn. That was a good beer. Very impressive. I drank four more after the first. The service was excellent and there was practically no wait for seating. We sat outdoors on a very pleasant Chicago afternoon. Next time I visit I plan on exploring their extensive whisky selection.

The food was excellent and the service was top-notch. notch. The indoor eating space was lovely, but on a surprisingly warm day in Chicago, the outdoor eating space was outstanding. From the outdoor dining area, you have an excellent View of the Wrigley building and Trump Tower, looking across the Chicago River. We did not have to wait but I wouldn't always expect this to be the case.

Food was great and priced at what you would expect for the style and location. Some people might say it’s pricey but come on it’s Chicago people. Staff was ok, nice but didn’t stand out. The atmosphere was nice but the place was loud so conversations were a bit difficult for our group.

Place is very good. We visited twice. We had the ribs and the burger, both were very tasty. For dessert we had the cremme broule and the pie which also were excellent. One thing strange one we sat outside because we found a nice table, then the host made us get up and go to the lobby inside to regiater and follow her again outside to sit on a table she chose. Of course we asked for the initial table we got.

Great spot for a beer, wine or cocktail with a well priced menu for meals. Just ensure you can find a table with shade if it's a sunny day!
