We took our new US Navy Sailor here for a special steak dinner. Great variety of menu and drink items, lots of goat cheese dishes for lactose intolerant needs, excellent friendly service. We would definitely return for a date night if we lived here!

Honestly the quality has just changed from years past. If the restaurants not booked on a Friday night I don’t understand why I have to sit right next to other quests during covid; the waitress was obviously more focused on her main table, and rarely checked in on us, we didn’t get our waters until the end of the meal, we waited at least 30 mins to order our app and the app and the main were served together on a tiny table. The drinks, bad, both drinks tasted the same with little flavor. It felt like we were just an after thought? And like they rushed our food and app to get us out. Probably won’t go back, just sad because it used to be a great place with great service.

Amazing food and drinks with great service. Our go to because we are always happy with everything!

Firkin is one of my favorite restaurants in Libertyville. Quality is built into everything they serve and the service is always outstanding. I never need a menu - the schnitzel is amazing!

Great service and a great place for an early New Year's eve dinner.

Everything was great! Service, Ambience and food.

Service was very poor. Our waiter was not attentive and was in a constant rush — never checking back to see how we were doing and his mask was under his nose half the time. Food was mediocre. The bartender staff person who seated us was slightly rude when we wanted a different table than his suggestion. My meal was messed up — salad soaked in dressing after I requested dressing on the side. I asked if herbal teas were available and the waiter brought a tea bag and hot water; set it in front of me and took off never asking me if the type of tea was okay. It contained licorice which I can’t ingest for medical reasons so basically all I had to just drink was a cup of hot water. He could have suggested coffee. I would never go back there. My brother asked for ketchup which was never brought and my brother finally got up and took a bottle from another table. The Christmas decorations were festive. The ladies room was freezing.

We loved it! It was crowded and noisy, but in a vibrant way. The food (goat cheese, shrimp de jonghe, grilled cheese, and shrimp tacos were great, as were the Manhattan, a couple stouts, tiramisu, lava cake, and the around the world bourbon flight.

Our server, Fen, was outstanding.

We'll definitely go back, probably many times!

Always like Firkins for their good food and friendly service. Their tacos, mussels, chicken schnitzel snd French onion soup are our favorites.

Great food and beer as always.

Service and food was excellent!
Definitely recommend for a night out

Like many restaurants they were short staffed. Had to wait a while to get a drink to have with my piping hot meal. The scallop dejonge was generally good and flavorful. Some scallops had a slight fishy taste. The chips guac and salsa were excellent. The server was very nice.

Awesome Everything ❤️

Love Ferkin’s ambience, beer choices,location, parking. Negatives : Menu changes with reduction what is served on a plate with the cost remaining high for what you get. I ordered the Farro salmon @ $36 dinner entree and received only a 6 ounce portion of salmon with sauce and vegetable which consisted of fried onions green and red peppers and very little asparagus. No starch was added to the plate and nothing else unless you ordered À la cart. In the future I would only come for drinks and maybe a burger.

Great food, service and staff! Share your drink preferences with bar staff and they will provide great recommendations.

Firkin is always a favorite of mine and especially at the Holidays. I was a little disappointed this year that they don’t have more randomly strung holiday lights like they have had in the past. The food and service was great and a very vibrant atmosphere.

We eat here all the time and love it. Last nights dinner just didn’t meat expectations for either of us. Always worth a trip, especially during the holidays.

As always. Food was good!

The restaurant is on the smaller side. The food and service are well above average. The noise level in the restaurant is quite high as the restaurant has many hard surfaces and music playing at high levels. Great atmosphere for a festive small group outing, but not so much for a business lunch or intimate dinner.

Wonderful beer menu, hospitable staff. Great food!

Great playlist 😉

Tad bit pricey but a festive looking vibey place. The service was Great! Our server was super nice and welcomed us back, I believe his name was Mike!

We had the mussels, they exceeded our expectations

Had a great night with great food and service!!

Love this place. Our favorite Libertyville dining spot.

Great food, creative menu and has a city feel. We enjoyed it.

Food was great. Front of the house people very nice and helpful in seating our party. Our server was great, he was the best I have encounterd in the last year at several restaurants.

The food was amazing and the service was exceptional. I will definitely go there again.

Always good food and a wide selection of craft beer. Attentive wait staff.

Good. More checking in by our server would have been better, but she was easy to flag down.

First time there - very cozy, with a solid menu and excellent drink choices.

Heard from family and friends that it was a very good place and food was great..had a great waiter answered every question we had in detail. Loved the place.

Overall not impressed the selection of sides leaves a lot to be desired. The server was not flexible and offered very few sides and the side I chose was rice and beans which were cold and had no taste. For a healthy side salad they wanted to much and the salad should have been one of the sides offered. As far as to service it
was slow to poor. Not sure I will return.

This was our first visit and we loved it! Will be back!

Good was amazing!

Love the ambiance, our server was very attentive & food was great!

Great food, great service, never had a bad experience there

Our server was wonderful. We enjoyed the October fest beer flights as well as the special menu items.

Consistently good!

Great place to meet with friends for a casual dinner. Consistent quality and service. Highly recommend!
