This is a sports bar but prices are mid range not low. Service wasn’t great, not sure they recovered after COVID.

Birthday Brunch. Although we made reservations, we sat ourselves (no problem at all). Our server did ask if we had made reservations later on. The service was great, the food was awesome (breakfast potatoes 👍🏾, chicken & waffles 👍🏾, beignets 👍🏾👍🏾). I don’t remember the server’s name but she was 👍🏾👍🏾. Covid-19 protocols were being followed, we were spaced out appropriately and only those eating or drinking weren’t wearing masks. I will be back!

Dinner experience at Weather Mark Tavern was perfect. Our waitress could not have been better, we quickly got drinks and an order placed minutes after sitting down. Drinks were delivered fast and food shortly thereafter. Entrees were tasty and hot. We were going to the Bears game at nearby Soldier Field thus timeliness was important and thankfully Weather Mark Tavern delivered at each step. Highly recommended! Larry

We stopped in the Saturday afternoon of Chicago Marathon packet pick up. Very friendly, clean, food was fresh, service was good. Had one service hiccup that was corrected right away. So happy we found this place!
