    Great selection of ciders, service is awesome and it's cozy and not pretentious. Food menu is somewhat limited but what we had was good.

    We love The Northman! We frequently drive to cideries and love the wide variety we find at The Northman! The menu is just right. Our server, Drew, was knowledgeable, gave great suggestions, and was very attentive. If you love cider and live in or around Chicago, you belong at The Northman!

    Really a great surprise to have excellent food, wonderful service and overall pleasant. I’m somewhat sensitive to noisy surroundings so it did get loud as the evening went on but all the rest made it a great evening.

    The Northman is one of my new favorite date spots. It’s a little expensive but every drink and meal has been satisfying and delicious. The staff is super friendly and attentive as well.
