Highway House - Chicago

Everything was on point from the food to the drinks

I had the burger which comes with fries. The burger was fresh and cooked just right. The toppings were fresh. I did ask for ketchup, but it wasn't on or with my meal, not a big deal as I had some at home. The fries were excellent. Fresh cut potatoes, and whatever amazing oil they fried them was too notch! The only thing this burger and fries could have used was a coleslaw. I guess that is an extra item not included. The person behind the bar was friendly. It's a typical bar and grill atmosphere inside. The only negative may have been the gambling machines, probably should be hidden in the back. I would return again. Bicycling: It's right on Northwest Highway which has a bike lane. It's also off a side street which is also conformable for riding. There seems to be places to lock up the bikes. They also have outside dining, which is a plus.

Weather was perfect last week for sitting outside. It's a great place. Love the owner.

Great atmosphere...great food. Really good Ruben sandwiches, fish chips is very tasty. Try the **** Mary. Easy to get to (1 block off the Kennedy X-way) and plenty of street parking. They prefer cash, so be nice and pay that way.

The food was really good and the reasoning for my low rating is the food was way too expensive for the portion. Over $40 for Fish n chips and Bacon dip.
