Corcoran's Grill - Chicago

Great pub Atmosphere and prompt service. Perfect before Second City show right across the street. Food quality ok.

We ate here prior to a show at Second City. It is right across the street so it was very convenient. Due to marathon weekend, it was very crowded. We arrived about 10 minutes before our reservation and were seated right away. They seemed a little short-staffed for the number of people so we understood the slight delays we experienced in placing our drink and food orders, plus they were in the middle of a shift change. Once we ordered the food it came out pretty quickly. The drinks seemed a bit weak. My husband ordered the fish and chips and there was way too much breading on the fish. It was crispy on the outside but the inside of one of the pieces was lukewarm. My chicken sandwich was dry and could have used more sauce. Another member of our group had the burger and said it was good. I'd recommend this as a quick casual spot to grab some bar food before going to second city.

I'm a regular at Corcoran. Food is good. Service is usually great. Wings, burgers, and subs are the better options.

I just stopped in for a beer before going to second city, and a 12oz local IPA (nothing special) was TEN DOLLARS after tax. TEN DOLLARS. Absolutely ridiculous.

Really happy to visit Corcoran today. My friend who is visiting from England pick the pub for drinks after a tennis match.. Great location, nice vibe, staff is super friendly. Our waitress is beyond excellent. Great spirit of hospitality! Well done Lauren.
