Will nickel and dime you, but still good eats. There's a free parking garage out back in case the streets are too crowded.

This place has never missed the mark with service in my experience, and I frequent at least once a month. The drinks are always cold, fresh, and reasonablypriced. The food is delicious and fresh as well... my favorites are the smoked wings, cheese curds, beer nuggets, and chicken pesto sandwich. The staff is uber friendly and it felt great seeing many of them take the time to greet me (while I was on crutches) after a couple months hiatus (since I was injured). The Live Entertainment on weekends is always a huge plus as well! SIX SPEED TRANNY rocked the house yesterday

Slower than expected service. Beer was great. Fish and chips were delicious. Brewery 277

Sat in booth by front door. Had people looking over the side of booth. Had kids standing on bench and banging on booth. It was so loud in restaurant that I couldn't hear any conversations in our booth. FISH FRY was delicious. Food was hot and choice of sides was great. Maybe put in a waiting area so people that are eating can enjoy their meal without being stared at and asked questions “how's the fish tonight”?

Another "not my first time here, but first Google Review" for this place! Always a bustling spot, any time of day, any time of week. Beers are very good. Food-wise I'd say a 3.5/5 all-around. Usually order their French Onion soup and wish there was a tad bit more cheese, melted and crispier. My score would be a 3.5/5. Mom ordered a pretzel for the table - huge in size but not so tasty, so a 3/5. Don't recall a brunch menu but voila, there is one. Some in our group ordered an omelette, which came out to be a large portion. Tasty and the hashbrowns which comes with were crispy. Omelette entree is a 4/5 in my books. Nice brunch drink deals on Sunday with $5 beers and $5 mimosas. Overall, a great spot in Downtown Libertyville that has pretty much everything on their beer and food menu. Staff all-around are great as well.

Mickey Finn's was amazing! We went there to see Pino Farina Band (the best band in the area hands down) and were pleasantly surprised by the staff, the ambiance and the menu! I expected bar food and had one of the best Ahi Tuna Sandwiches around! Liquor selection was very good as well! Our waiter, Doug, did a fantastic job. All around a great night!

Great service, lively atmosphere on a Saturday night. Did not try the food, but it looked good. By the end of the night, people were dancing everywhere

Located downtown Libertyville, so you got to look for street parking but there are some garages. Spacious space with an outdoor patio that is heated. The host and our server were accommodating with our large party. We were originally seated in the patio because there wasn't any large table inside. The did let us know, there was a reservation in a couple of hour that booked the whole patio but will get us a large table inside once something open up. I started with the Helles Belles which is a nice smooth lager. Easy to drink but mid way I switch to the Bloody Mary which also came with a small beer on the side. The bloody Mary was delicious and strong. The beer was a nice addition. We also ordered fries and wings which isn't pictured but pretty good but not amazing. The Finn Classic pizzas was very try good. Definitely recommend that pizza if you're at Mickey Finn.

Good bar food and beers. Nice local bar/restaurant that caters to families and adults. Pizza is consistent and very good. Some of the sandwiches are really good. Philly so so. Burgers good. Their brewery beers are always good to try.
While we normally experience great food, this experience left us wondering if the kitchen was inexperienced or overwhelmed. The spinach dip was super greasy with too much cheese and the teriyaki chicken has too much sauce making the rice and veggies soupy. We love Mickey Finn's and will come back again because this was an isolated experience that we haven't had before. The server was amazing per her usual.

Mickey Finn was a great place to meet up with friends! The service and food were excellent. It was a little noisy but we adjusted accordingly, I would highly recommend this restaurant!!0?

Finn's is a Libertyville favorite. Think neighborhood pub with great beer. Their patty melt can not be beat. I love the fact that the menu changes and the wait staff is so friendly.

Mickey Finn's in Libertyville is my go-to spot! It's hands down one of the coolest bars in town. The live music adds such a fantastic vibe, especially on weekends. And let's talk about their beer selection - top-notch! I'm all about their seasonal brews, especially the Christmas ones. The tacos and cheese curds are a total game-changer. Seriously, the perfect bites to pair with your drinks. And can we talk about the friendly service? It's like hanging out with pals who just happen to serve amazing food and drinks. Oh, and did I mention it's family-friendly during the day? Yup, you heard it right. Mickey Finn's is the spot for both day and night vibes. if you're looking for a cool place to hang out and get a few good brews, live music, and superior bar bites, Mickey Finn's is where it's at! Cheers to good times!

Parking was a bit challenging for the first time being there but very worth the effort. The Shepard Pie was the perfect comfy food washed down with the Maple Old Fashion. Service was excellent.
