The Irish Legend

Great food and atmosphere! Wait time was a little long but it was still paddy's day so it's to be expected.

The indoor space feels intimate and old school, and the different types of outdoor seating are amazing on a nice day. Bonus points that it borders a forest preserve!

The drink menu and draft list are extensive with many local options. The service can be a bit hit or miss, but the personality of the staff makes up for it. I'm a vegetarian so I don't always find the greatest food options, but all of my carnivore friends and family love having a meal here.

Great outdoor seating.
Staff was aaa and did a great job of checking in in us out in the deck



Average burgers probably cicso.
Pass on the curry fries, they were very disappointing.

This is a cute hidden gem. This little pub gives you the fun dive bar vibes.

It was my first time here and the food was phenomenal. As an app we had the corn beef bites and the ruben fritters. Both were excellent!

As my main meal I had the steak wrap and it was out of this world. Love the unique food menu.

Prices were decent but add on were very expensive. Filly cheese steak, chicken ceaser wrap and hamburger was $90 with add on. Service was horrible asked for ranch took 5 min. The chicken ceaser wrap was dry. The hamburger was salty as hell and the filly cheese steak was flavorless and cold horrible

Great local place for beers, food and ambiance on Archer Ave in Willow Springs IL. Service is sincere.
There are two parking lots but they can get packed on nice days when everyone wants to enjoy the patios.
The food is good. We've had burgers, hot chicken sandwiches and apps. All enjoyable.
Lots of changing local beer options.
Prices reasonable.
Some machines if you are into that. If not they're pretty tucked away and not distracting.
Supposed to be haunted. Irish Legend used to be a regular stop for the ghost tours heading from Resurrection Cemetery.

Worth checking out!!

We are in town for a two night camping trip and after a long, cold hike we were looking for a hot lunch in a warm place. I had noticed The Irish Legend on our way in and between the reviews and the proximity to the campground, we headed over. Upon entering we were immediately impressed by the Irish Legend. The front dining area was smaller so I asked if we could sit in the other room to the room. This was a large dining room with a second bar, huge fireplace, and lots of festive Christmas decor. Our server, Sarah I believe, was extremely friendly and attentive. She brought us plenty of water right away, took our drink orders, and we perused the menu. I have been craving a rueben lately so my choice was easy. My son got chicken tenders and fries. His friends had the hangover burger, fried chicken dinner, and a cheeseburger. One of the boys also ordered cheese curds. I was granted the last curd, and it was delicious, with a thin, beer battered coating. These were served with marinara. My reuben was great, with lots of goodness inside and perfectly grilled marble rye. The fries were also delicious. My son devoured them and said they are like McDonald's but not over salted like the golden arches version. The burgers were enjoyed and looked huge. The chicken dinner was described as fire. Our awesome server asked about dessert but we were stuffed after the generous portions. Next time we camp at Bullfrog Lake Campground we will definitely stop back in!

The Christmas Manhattan is fantastic! The chicken Caesar is nothing special served with a whole grilled chicken breast. The service was not good. I had to hunt down our server to order an appetizer or get more drinks for the table. Found her chatting with co-workers in another room.

It's a local bar and has some good Irish ambiance but don't expect anything beyond that.

We had a great lunch at the Irish Legend today. The pot pie was delicious with a light, flaky crust. The burger was juicy and tasty.
Our waitress, Kai was amazing. Everything was timed perfectly, When we were ready to order or needed a refill she was right there.
What made this so amazing to me was that she had many other tables to serve at the same time. She was pleasant and efficient and absolutely
Made our experience so perfect, thank you Kai.

We've been to Irish Legends countless times over the past few years. They have 2 great patios (one in front and another on the side), they're both dog friendly. We have always sat outside and usually go for lunch. We have had a lot of things on their menu and they've all been great - meatball sandwich, burgers, reuben, grilled cheese, fish and chips, tavern style pizza, and chicken pot pie. The burger I had was a little on the salty side, but other than that, everything has been great! Fries are also excellent. I really enjoyed the chicken pot pie I had, this last time we went. Great flavor and the puff pastry was super tasty and fun to eat. The pie was a little soupy, but we drank it up! I only wish it had a little more chicken. There were only a few strings of shredded chicken here and there. They have a great beer selection and I love their warm spiked apple cider. We'll definitely be coming back!
