I love the beer here. Very flavorful. Cannot find a better brewery in this area.

A while back would have given a 4 star rating but the last couple of times it seemed the quality of food and service has diminished.
It is a nice place, however it seems the ambiance has changed and the food is a bit pricey for the quality. Based on last visit, had better tasting food from local chain establishments for half the price.
Okay beer and wine selection but really nothing unique from other places. Even the appetizer menu changed to contain basic nacho type fare that can be had elsewhere.
There is optional valet parking but unsure why other than restaurant is in Barrington.
There is nothing wrong with eating here but there are so many other similar establishments that provide better value and equal or greater quality, it might be a while before we go back.

I love this spot! A beautiful way to spend a long afternoon, their deck & views are fabulous, the beer flights were fun, the food was top notch.will return soon for sure. And I love the owner's mission of giving back to the community. Great local, family-owned business to support!

Onion Petals are a must. Great Fish & Chips. Southwest Salmon the best. Hop Slayer their best.

Drive by this place at all cost! This was our 1st and last time at this hole.
We had high hopes for The Onion Pub, however our hopes were dashed as soon as we were seated. We went in late Saturday afternoon and we hoped to have some good beers, food and conversation. What we had was a disinterested hostess that sat us in a depressing back room between the kitchen and toilets, that truly was gods waiting room. Our fellow diners were a Korean war vet and his wife, 6 golden girls, grandparents making string ties with their bored grand daughter and a woman and son that were obviously kitchen staff family members, not the Saturday crowd we would have chosen, but the Korean vet and his wife were pleasant company and we did enjoy talking with them. They were the only thing we enjoyed about the experience . Our waitress was one of the worse, she told us about the soup of the day but did not wait around to see if we wanted it, we ordered two burgers and we had to tell her how we wanted them cooked, I asked for mayo on the side for the fries and she came back with a teaspoon of mayo and sat it down on the table, returned shortly while my husband and I were in conversation and banged a bottle of ketchup down between us that we did not ask for, I set the timer on my phone to see how long the mayo would sit on the table before the food arrived, since you don't leave dairy out in a hot room, it was on the table for 12mins, my husband asked for another since this was sitting too long, and she brought back the same teaspoon of mayo. We had to beg for the beer menu, I had heard this place had a great selection, she proceeded to scratch out the ones they did not have. We decided on two big boys, the beer was good but not worth a return trip, no mention of flights or any of the things on the website, maybe you had to sit in the bar for that, but since we were not asked where we wanted to sit, who the heck knows. We asked for well done burgers, what we got were two thin black orbs, I had to check to see if it was a blacked burger, McDonald's at least has the good graces to have burgers that are burger color, not the color of the bottom of my shoe, they were barely edible. Ive done better on the grill at home. We were not made to feel welcomed at all, I don't know if it was because we are not 30 or a young family and just two 40 somethings that are not obese or unattractive that just wanted a few beers and a meal. After our meal the waitress did not ask if we wanted the fries wrapped, I would have said no, but its standard to ask or ask if there was a problem when you see the diner has not touched them. I was expecting something like the Cary Pub, or Emmett's, what we got was a sad hospital cafeteria.

They used to have a great menu, then they changed everything about a year ago, and now their food selection is mediocre like a cheap dive bar. No longer serve our favorite Polish sausage. The beer that they brew here is pretty good, their signature Oatmeal Stout has a lot of rich flavor.

Atmosphere is also just OK, recently they started being gimmicky by playing loud obnoxious music (high treble) through their speakers which they didn't do before, we had to ask our server to turn the volume down. Not what it used to be where it's just the regular atmosphere you can relax in.

Overall it used to be at the same level as Emmits in Palatine, but now this place has gone downhill with the food and atmosphere. They need to improve and go back to their roots.

Overall the food was good but didn't wow me. The beer selection, while decent sized was also just ok. I tried the 6 beer flight and found two that were to my taste. While sampling those I tried the cheese stuffed fried pickles (one if my favorite foods) and was the reason I stopped in. In my excited haste I popped the massive thing in my mouth fully accepting that I would be burned by delicious molten cheese. I was not expecting to be stabbed by a tooth pick hidden within the pickle itself, would have been nice to know that while trying to swallow I'd be stabbed. The waitress was attentive to our needs but was not overbearing. She showed up when needed and disappeared when we didn't. I will probably give them another try because the atmosphere was fantastic but the taste of everything was not wowing.
