Anyone here been to Old Chicago?? (The restaurant) - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

My brother and his wife took me there for the first time on my birthday, and I was very impressed with the place. So much so, that I took my neighbor friend and her mom there last Sunday. It's basically a sports themed restaurant/bar that serves pizza, and a bunch of other foods, (Mostly Italian), like calzones, pizza rolls, spaghetti, cheese bread, etc. etc. Along with the great food, it also has about 110 different beers from various Countries to choose from, as well as about 10 tv's that play different sports on every channel, which is awesome for someone like me who loves sports. Another thing I really liked about it, was that it had three different areas. A bar, a restaurant, and an outdoor area where you could eat your food on days when the weather was nice. One thing about the place that made me laugh, was that it had various newspaper clippings on the bathroom wall, so that the guys could read up on all the latest sports headlines while they were peeing.

They even had the Sunday comics up there. LOL!! Anyway, for anyone who likes sports, beer, and good food, and are looking for a cool place to eat this weekend, I highly recommend this place!! It's probably the best restaurant Iv'e been to all year. The waitresses are really nice too!!

I was laughing so hard when I saw the comics up on the wall, I almost missed the toilet.

It's definitely a good way to advertise though. LOL!!

Never been, but it sounds very familiar, I might have seen it on Unwrapped

I have!

I went to the one in Columbia, Missouri, about three years ago. (Of note, I went in wearing a shirt from an Ohio chain called East of Chicago Pizza Company!

) I got a shirt from Old Chicago after this visit, so now I have shirts from both chains.

The closest one to me is in Louisville, Kentucky, but according to their website at www.oldchicago.com there is one under construction in West Chester, north of Cincinnati.
