Jameson’s Pub

Came in after work last week for a coworker’s birthday. For a Friday afternoon they had a surprising amount of tables being used. We were 10 people and they put a table together for us in the back. I started with a Bloody Mary that was very good. I also ordered the mozarella sticks and was not impressed. They came out so quick they just have been microwaved and were lukewarm. I didn’t finish them and no one else would even eat them! Chips with salsa and guacamole were ok, I wouldn’t order them again. I tried the egg rolls which were pretty good though, and spicy. Our waitress was also able to split our checks which was great. I would stop back in for a drink but pass on the appetizers next time.

Went to Jameson’s this weekend for the first time and the food was FABULOUS! The waiter could have been a little more friendly but she did her job. The salmon salad was phenomenal as well as the French onion soup.

This is a basic sports bar. I went there for a Birthday party for a friend and the burgers were great! They are five bucks with fries on Mondays. They have other specials throughout the week. but this during the day was a very nice time.

Food is good but very, very loud. It is a Sunday and every TV (I can see 20 of them directly) is playing a different game. Was hoping for a more relaxed experience.

Good food. Nice place.

To the manager at Jameson’s tonight August 3:
If the kitchen is busy, seat people and explain that there will be a delay. Don’t make them wait in the lobby for 15 minutes staring at 6 – 7 empty tables.
But thank you, it gave us a chance to discover Hamburgerseria.

Nice sports pub, clean and relaxing atmosphere at dinnertime. Had the Jameson Chimichanga (chicken) which was HUGE but not as spicy as I’d hoped. Nice, friendly wait staff, recommended.

My new boss and friend brought me here for my first work lunch. Despite the lunch hour, food came out quickly. The food was good though I think I would have to try something else another time just to be a little more detailed

I’m giving a star each for the cute, friendly wait staff and the above-​average bar food. the owner, however, is a total ass. my stepmother and I sent our drinks back because they were so watered down and tasteless, and the owner came over and literally yelled at us. this man was waving his arms around telling us we don’t know what a drink should taste like and that everything with ice in it has no flavor. our server was so sweet and apologetic, and she explained that he was defensive because a lot of drinks were being returned for the same reason. this is a cheap man with no customer service skills who has no business running a bar. I hope he never wonders why he’s lost so many customers.

Duane B. isn’t lying. Cab driver said this joint is a cop or fireman’s bar, which would explain a lot. Bouncer said we were getting the boot because their license stopped at 1 am if they didn’t have a DJ. Uh-​huh, right. Because that’s a thing. It CLEARLY got too dark for someone. Why else would 2 cops show up and cruise the darker corner then help clear the bar of the 40+ patrons? If you find yourself in Joliet, odds are you’ll need a drink. Do yourself a favor and don’t go here. There are plenty of other, better places just down the road.

Turn music off on us at 12:50 due to what we consider too many black people in building. Was in parking lot and heard great music playing then soon as our party walked in the music changed drastically. Won’t be coming back here anymore!

I called to order 2 classic burgers to-​go. There person who answered the phone was very pleasant and efficient. The burgers were a nice size, cooked well and tasty. The sides of fries/​onion rings were generous. Overall it was a very nice experience. i would order from them again.

We ate lunch here last week because I had a taste for a rueben and people gave them great reviews. First off I asked the waitress if the rye bread had seeds she paused and said yes it’s marble rye it has seeds and so does our wheat bread. What planet is she from?! Once my sandwich came to me) on white bread because it’s the only one with no seeds they carry ha) the meet was brown. Yes, BROWN and thin as paper I wish I would have taken a picture. I took one bite it tasted like corned beef hash. Couldn’t have been more then 1 tablespoon of sauerkraut on it. I didn’t want to complain but when she asked if she could wrap my sandwich I said no thank you the sandwich was horrible. She never even offered a manager to come over. Hence the $ 2 tip I gave her. I’m glad I didn’t get food poisoning. Waste of $ 8.50!!!

This is our favorite lunch and cocktail stop in Joliet. We love the straight up grilled shrimp, best in town. Soups and sandwiches are very good also. The chicken and bacon Panini is my favorite. Thank you for serving Myers Rum also. Most restaurants in the Joliet area have only cheap young crowd rums. My wife Sara’s favorite it the Asian salad. 12:00 PM through 7:00 PM is the best time to visit due to the later and loud crowd that builds up through the evening.

Good bar atmosphere, cute & friendly bartenders, and tons of TV’s. Typical pub fare, but large portions. I’ve had a couple of misses here, but mostly decent tasting food. Decent weekly specials.

Stop by here for a meeting. Not to crowded when we arrived at 5 but within the hour it filled up fast. Inside is nice, layout is pretty opened so you do not feel crowded. Good size bar for sitting around. The out door patio was nice and large also. Our server was prompt and we ordered some beverages and asked to hold off on food as we were discussing. Server had no problem checked back but seen we were still working. All good. We did order and I had the Burger Wrap and coleslaw. By mistake they brought out fries but immediately went back and got my slaw. The burger wrap was ok, a bit to dry. the fries were ok but I normally do not eat them, the slaw was good. Not a bad place to grab a bite to eat and a drink.

I’m writing this review to kill time while waiting for my food, since the deafening music makes conversation with my dinner companions impossible, and my beer glass had been empty for the last ten minutes.
Full disclosure: I’m already irritated because because the beer selection is so poor. I asked, «What beer do you have?» The waitress replied, «OMG, soooo many beers! Like, HUNDREDS of bottles!» So I said, «Great! How about something Polish?» And she responded, «Uhh. No. What Polish beers even are there?» So I said, «How about something local?» Her: *shaking head slowly* «Uhhh… NO?» And it just went on like that.
The food was pretty good. Aside from knowing nothing about beer, the service was fair.
Bottom line: this is a shitty college bar with three times the normal capital investment of a standard shitty college bar, trying to make itself look like a respectable restaurant. You get more ambience and local color at Applebee’s. Skip this place, unless you’re trying to get laid.

A very nice local bar. I was here for St. Patrick’s Day. There was a lively crowd later in the day! Food was good, service was great!

I’m reviewing lunch here***
Good service, not to crowded, great food both times I’ve been in the last few weeks. First time I had buffalo chicken sandwich which was awesome. Just lightly fried, soaked in sauce, and I had the blue cheese on it instead of the ranch. I like they have cottage cheese as an option for a side. You don’t find that very often anymore. Then today Monday, they have a $ 4 burger special. The burger was great, not better then Penalty Box but it was a good burger that I will order again there.
Over all a nice place for lunch, good beer selection, and good food. Service on my two visits was great as well.

Women’s bathroom is disgusting. The chair has been broken for about a year. Steak is a bit bland, and the Jamaican jerk chicken is too saucy (they should just use a dry rub instead).
