Chasers Sports Bar and Grill

There isn’t a ton wrong with this place. They have good specials and pretty good food. I don’t have complaints with the service or the patrons. Some of the food, like the soups, seem to come right out of the can. The chicken and rice tasted like they added lime to it. If I where to make a suggestion it would be to either get rid of the soup or make it from scratch. Soup is too easy to make to take short cuts on it.

Eeek. The quality of the food is just fine but the service is poopy. Beware when ordering take-​out and/​or delivery. It’s never delivered or ready on time. And order that was to arrive at 11:45 didn’t not show up until after 12:30. When this happens you’d hope compensation would be in order. Not so much. Which is a shame given that many local families & consumers were hoping that this location would stick.

The most frustrating place. We found their menu in our office and decided to try it out and placed our first order. Not only did they not honor the prices listed on the menu, but they forgot to charge the correct amount. Ofcoarse they didn’t charge me enough the first time. Fries had no salt, but the chicken and rice was like eating a sodium bath. No thanks.

Love love love this place. Great food good atmosphere. They have a large draft selection and a clean warm bar area. The staff is super nice an always smiling. I drink the Sam Adams Boston an it’s at perfect temperature. Mel the barmaid is the highlight. Gotta love them yoga pants!

Chasers is in my hometown and I tend to stop by when I go back to LZ for whatever reason. 3 stars for convenience, good price, free pizza from 3? until 5? (not sure on the exact times), and location.
I haven’t eaten a full meal here so I can’t comment on the food. Service though could be improved heavily. Last time I was here, I stood at the bar for more than 5 minutes while the bartender/​waitress was chatting away and showing off her tattoos. After ordering a drink, I was rudely told by said bartender/​waitress that I would have a waitress come to my table. Then the bartender and our new waitress (for the table) couldn’t figure out how to transfer the check from the bar to the table. I don’t mind if people can’t figure stuff out, but the way the two dealt with the situation was in a rude manner.
Nothing too special about Chasers, but it’s very convenient in terms of cost and location. I usually see about ½ of previous high school classmates when I go there, including classmates that work at Chasers. Also, no need for the sleazy work uniforms ;)

This is an update to my review, which I first posted about 2+ years ago. I and my friends are regulars at this place. And, it is still good, but could use some improvement. First, what is good about it:
Strengths:
The service is fantastic.
Management is great too and will do whatever it takes to make sure you are satisfied.
The atmosphere is also excellent.
Weakness (Development Opportunities):
The Beer. (We love icy cold draft beer, yet this place beer is cool, just not cold. Take a page from Twin Peaks and keep your beer icy!)
The food:
Philly Cheesesteak ((It is still good, but not as good as when they first opened. The philly cheesesteak the last few times I went there seemed to have less meat and cheese. Still tasty, but needs work.)
Pizza (Not bad, but a bit doughy. Of course, I find that is true of most of the pizza places in the area. Go to the southside of Chicago to find really good thin crust pizzas and follow them.)
Nachos (I have seen many bad reviews on the nachos, but they are really not that bad. Yes, they could be better, perhaps more cheese and beans.)
Other than that, the place is still good and worth going. The lack of really cold beer, in my and my friends opinion, is still the number one issue we have.

Those were the worst nachos I’ve ever had. Anybody can throw a jar of melted cheese over a can of refried beans. Looked like barf.

No reason to go.
Grew up on Chasers in Niles so i was excited to try it out. Don’t bother. The bartenders were friendly but did not want to be there at 7pm on a saturday night. Nachos came out with cheese and just chicken instead of beans, like requested. But that was it. No salsa, sour cream or guac on the side. ordered wraps and asked for the soup to go. Wraps were fine but came with no side. When i got the bartenders attention for the check, she forgot we asked for the soup to go and so did i by then. Very disappointed.

What’s the worst thing you can do to a bacon cheeseburger? Forget the bacon.
I ordered through Grub Hub yesterday. Upon receiving my order, I was quite dismayed to find my bacon cheeseburger to be quite baconless. I called immediately and the manager I spoke with offered to, …“cook up some bacon and send it out,” or give me a credit. I declined on having bacon sent out since my burger probably would not have been warm by the time I received it. I did accept the offer of the credit, though the manager didn’t state whether it was a credit for just the bacon or the entire burger. I really didn’t care either way since I ate the baconless burger.
As of today, no credit. Just a thought though, perhaps it would be better from a customer service perspective to offer to remake the entire dish rather than just offering the missing ingredient, especially when it’s for delivery. I would have been happy to return the one that had already been delivered.

TL;DR SPORTS extravaganza! Lots of Blackhawks fans, plenty of TVs, decent food, cheap beer, some good craft offerings
We went for game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals, got in early enough to secure a table, among the table we had cosmos, white wine, miller lite, rebel ipa, anti-​hero ipa, they were all cold and surprisingly fast for how busy it was. They had $ 4 pints of anti-​hero and $ 8 pitchers of miller lite, a few other specials.
We started with the nachos, the steak was great, they were loaded with toppings, these things were on point. The crispy chicken salad was standard but good, the wrap was good, the burritos are HUGE for the $.
We cheered along with hundreds of other fans throughout the whole game, it was an excellent evening. The Hawks win didn’t hurt either!

59 cents were excellent and larger than most places. Sat at the bar Service a little slow. But food good

Good place to have drinks. Food is just OK.
Biggest issue I have there is they over serve patrons and they get really drunk and loud.
Some bartenders are awesome while the others spend more time socializing than serving drinks

Really good wings. Jumbo size not the small wings you see at other places. Good service really friendly. Not to busy on a Friday night plenty of seating available. Lots of tvs everywhere and slot machines in the back. I didn’t play them but saw others enjoying them. Overall if your looking for a sports bar with a lot of tvs and great wings come here

Don’t
Don’t Order the Pizza
Don’t order the salad
Don’t

The food was horrible. I ordered wings and a burger and it came with soup (for some reason). The wings were the highlight of the meal, and they were marginally tasty at best. My buddy ordered fried shrimp and it was bland and probably a little undercooked.
If a sports bar with cute waitresses in tight, skimpy outfits is only maybe half full on a Friday night… well I guess the clues were there from the start.

I want to add that on the wings, the L part of the wing with no meat was cold, but the main wing area was pretty warm.
After watching the TV show Bar Rescue, it really makes me wonder what the kitchen looks like.
My wife and I were sitting by the window and it was freezing cold. I saw another Unilocaler felt the same about it being cold.

It’s a sports bar. Having all the TVs is great and great angles to many of them. So coming here for the game would be good.
The food here really leaves something to be desired. Burgers are worse than McDonalds. Fries were cold.
They’d be better dropping the kitchen and making it just a bar.

Went here for a birthday lunch and it was just ok. The nachos were served on an awkward oval plate and hard to eat. My husband had a burger which he thought was awful. My mom and grandmother had sandwiches that were also just «eh».
The place is kinda cool with lots of tv’s and an industrial feel. I can see liking this place if you go to drink and get appetizers and watch sports. Other than that, there are better places in LZ to eat.
Also, my mother doesn’t do Unilocal reviews but I feel it’s worth mentioning — my folks ordered delivery once and didn’t hear anything for an hour (they were told 30 min). So they call and their order still hadn’t been made! So my mom told them to forget it. The person at Chasers assured them their order will be delivered in 15−20min. So the guy shows up with food and gives them the wrong order! She told him forget it and he insisted to just take the food for free. Never again will they eat there, nor will I.
Someone I know said their Greek pizza is amazing but I’m not giving this place any of my time or money. Too bad cuz from the road it looks decent :(

Love the owner (Maria). It’s just a shame the service is okay, at best. One bartender today, focusing only on her friends at one end of the bar. We are, of course at the other. I see why they’re only 2 ½ stars.

Nothing horrible to report but nothing outstanding either… very average.
Monday night ½ price pizza night; don’t mean to be rude but that’s the right price for this quality of pizza. I felt it was only about a notch above cooking a frozen ‘za at home. Improving the crust and adding a bit more sauce would make a noticable difference.
Note that monday is also $ 3 PBR 16 oz Tall Boy night, there were other drink specials on a chalk board but our waitress didn’t bother to tell us about them.
Lots of screens– plenty to see… isn’t that why most people go to a sports bar? The only real plus here that I could see.
