Awesome spot - came in cause my buddy Mike said it was a good spot. The bar tender Chris and the owner Brian were awesome and greeted us with a warm welcome. Food was 10/10 gotta try the wings. Karaoke on saturdays bangs-
Over the railroad tracks and down the street, to Teddy O'Brians we go...It truly is kind of off the beaten path. This is a place for regulars. Our Burger Club visited on a Thursday night not knowing local artists came for an open mic night. It's a tiny place with tables crammed in at every angle and wherever they could put them. We grabbed a table unbeknownst to us in front of the open mic area. Some of the acts were good and some not so good. And they clearly had a following. One of the more interesting decor choices are the LPs that adorn the walls. Not the records themselves, but the LP jackets and covers. They're on the walls and they looked as if they were placed on the walls when they were first purchased as they were properly aged for their timeframe (classic rock mostly).We all had the burgers (hence the burger club). The burgers and fries were reasonably good. We had also ordered wings as an appetizer to share and they were very good.What surprised me the most was that there was one bartender/server and one cook in the kitchen. That was it and the bartender/server was johnny-on-the-spot. She took our order, served our drinks, checked on us, and repeated the process for all the other tables (all were taken) and all the patrons at the bar.I was amazed at how hard she and the cook worked, despite the number of people, The burgers were okay, the wings were pretty good. But the service was hands down some of the best we had and the venue was welcoming to us outsiders into their open mic wonderland.Go for the food and stay for the atmosphere and terrific service!
A great little neighborhood bar! Owner, Brian is very friendly and personable, and his staff are awesome too. If you’re looking for a spot to watch Sunday football or just pop in for a drink, look no further.
This restaurant was absolutely amazing! It is the definition of a hole in the wall. Service was amazing. As the picture shows they even made up a a drink just for us then wrote down the recipe. The was soup Chicken Enchilada was delicious. My wife hates clack beans and she still likes the soup. She got the fajita chicken wrap. That was really good! She put the whole thing away! I got the veggie burger with Gouda cheese with a huge amount of mushrooms piled on (I paid extra for them) I they came curly with fries or regular fries. The curly fries were just like Arby’s, which is a huge compliment from me. This place is highly recommended!!
Awesome little place. The staff was super friendly and attentive. He made a mean Burger as well! Food was great and it appeared they had a lot of beer options. The atmosphere was pretty great. Lots of cool items to inspect, the other patrons were are all joking and getting along. Great place!
This is our hometown bar and we’re consistently treated very, very well. Amazing owner, staff, food and drinks. You just cannot ever go wrong with coming out to Teddy’s for breakfast, lunch, dinner or for a drink. A place to meet fun, down to earth people and a place that welcomes ALL people. We proudly patronize Teddy’s as often as possible. You cannot go wrong here - and if you haven’t been or not been in for a while, swing by!
Don't know if you'll find a better Philly cheesesteak around.Get the grilled cheese too, hands down some of the best food in Mundelein and you'd never expect it.
Cool Irish Pub with casual vibe, friendly service and great food. We went for lunch and the service was great! They had healthy options and were willing to make changes to help you get a good healthy meal! I got a Turkey burger, no bun, and a side salad! It wasn’t crowded and we could easily carry on a conversation!
