Miller’s Lombard Ale House

Food was okay nothing too spectacular. But lots of choices to make a lot of different people happy. I had Maui piccatti and it was a little dry but had great flavor.

Try the sweet potato fries… It comes with this amazing butter that is to die for! Pineapple mango mojito is amaze-​balls as well. Just an overall satisfied customer whenever I visit.

I was looking for a late night burger and we decided to give Miller’s a try. I did the build your own burger with bacon, jalapeños and blue cheese and it sure was tasty. The meet had a char grilled flavor which really made it just perfect for me.
My boyfriend had the blackened chicken and shrimp cob salad and he seemed to enjoy it.

Literally just left. I walked in and sat at the bar. I was the only one at the bar. One bartender putting glasses away, and another woman who looked to be the manager milling about. I grabbed a menu, selected a beer and looked up. No one at the bar. Waited another 3 minutes and then got up and left. I was there a bit more than 5 minutes — not even a greeting. You have a lot of other options in the area.

We came here on a Friday evening around 5:30pm and the parking lot was completely full. I think they share the lot with the banquet hall next door, because the restaurant definitely didn’t have THAT many people. After driving around for about 15min, I stalked a lady walking out and slowly followed her to her car. After she sat in her car for another 10min, doing God knows what, I was finally able to park. Step 1, complete.
We grabbed a spot at a high top, which is first come first serve in the bar area. It was pretty lively at that time, although not full. We only waited about 2min before our waitress greeted us, which was a nice surprise. She was very friendly and attentive, no complaints about her.
We started cruising through the menus, which were absolutely disgusting. They were sticky & stained, which is just an awful way to search for food your about to eat. Once we successfully pried open the pages, I ordered a burger and she got the zinger salad with garlic sauce.
My burger was way under cooked, considering I ordered it medium-​well, and it came with about 6 french fries. Her salad, according to her, was once of the worst she’s had. The «zinger» chicken was horrible, a strange texture, and the garlic sauce tasted «like nothing».
Lastly, as I paid the bill, my Fiancé went to the restroom as I collected our things. She came back with an absolute look of disgust on her face. Apparently a waitress, not ours, was in the restroom stall with her apron on. Now I don’t work in service, but my Fiancé does, and that’s a big time no-​no. Just the thought of that makes my stomach churn.
This is not a place we’ll be back to. I think it would be fine if you’re looking for a quick beer/​drink after work, but if you’re looking for a meal, I’d look elsewhere, as there’s plenty of decent places in the area.

I had a great lunch here yesterday with a friend. The fish and chips were awesome and only $ 5.99. Great service and specials. I look forward to going back to sample the beer and food menu.

I have been here many times before and the service keeps getting worse. We had a new waiter tonight that tried hard but was not a good waiter. He interrupted good conversations too many times. He did not bring waters that we asked for. Service time was really long and when we got our food it had been up in the window for awhile.
The food here is normally good. I think this might have been my last visit here.
The Miller’s in Florida rocks.

Overall, I’m a fan of the place.
Re: zingers, pfft… I don’t know what the hype about them is. Was NOT impressed with the taste nor the portion. (even when I got them comp’d I was still not impressed) LOL
however, the following dinners, have been tasty — the prime rib (on Thurs), the 1 ¼ lb slab of ribs (on Mon) and the Fish Fry LUNCH for $ 5.99
We’ve been there a handful of times, and ordered take out even more, and even when they’d screwed up an order, the Manager tried to make it right. GREAT JOB on management’s part. The servers are mostly friendly, although a few behave like air-​heads.
I am an Organizer on Meetup and have scheduled a couple of outing events there and all the members in my party said they had a great time. We got seated together in a large group on the enclosed patio and they brought out our order (nearly) at the same time.
Nice job!

It’s a pretty nice bar. I met several friends there and they accommodated a party of 12. Services was really good. We sat by the bar area and had dinner and drinks. The chicken wings were great and the beer was awesome. Rest of food was just ok. Not a bad place to have some appetizer and drinks. We will be back.

Millers is a great place to have some drinks and appetizers with friends and/​or watch a sporting event. They often have great drink specials. Its not my first choice for a family dinner or date night.

Luv this spot. I have never liked lobster tails but i luv theres. The bake potatoes are so yummy. Guacamole is so good. The steaks are so good. Great 10 dollar pitcher of sangria mmmmm… my new luv

Let me start by saying not my kinda place… BUT my friend wanted to come here for her birthday. Can you say weird folks making out at bar and kids sigh (only in suburbia). However for what it is its well GOOD. I cannot say enough about Arielle, who got everything right and on time and more for our group of 40+ aged something ladies! I might well come back !

Came here on a Saturday from another restaurant, which we were not happy with. We called from the other restaurant and were pleasantly surprised that while they do not accept reservations, they do accept call-​aheads and we were texted with our wait time and, updates and a notification when our table was ready.
The waitress was great, offered helpful suggestions for ordering and did a wonderful job throughout the meal.
The food was, very good. I personally had the flat iron steak and crab legs and it was great! The crab legs were delectable! I would be happy to return.

This place has good food, a great open atmosphere, and friendly staff. It’s like a cross between a Denny’s and small pub joint.
The whole place is huge allowing for bigger groups and room to spread out. You don’t feel cramped.
The food was very good. Not great or amazing. But good. I had the Maine lobster which was on special. It came with Cole slaw and I requested the loaded baked potato for a side. The lobster was delicious. No issues there. The potato was good but very salty due to the skin.
I also had the mountain of zingers which is basically loaded French fries with small chicken fingers in it. These were the best thing.
The staff was also very friendly and quick to serve. No complaints there.
I will most likely visit again but it won’t necessarily be just for the food.

A big over-​sized menu and place that is packed often. I guess because it is so near the mall may explain this but there is nothing special about this place. the food is decent and this is a corporate big chain though with a minor presence in Illinois and primarily why I tried it out. Hopefully they stay in the East Coast and Florida because there are enough of these massive bar breweries that have no real appeal except more space.

I’ve been coming here since it first opened. As a bar it is ok. It’s a good meeting place for groups of people but it can get very crowded and loud with just a few groups there. It’s not small but the areas for groups I feel are small. Size:3/5
Food is good. Try the zingers. You can not miss. Other than that I’m not sure what else to get. Matter of fact m, been coming here for 3 years and only get Zingers. Everything else is eh. Food:3/5; Zingers ⁵⁄₅
Patio they opened last year is nice. When they open it during the spring /​summer it is really nice
I really wanted to give this place a ⁴⁄₅ but could not think of a reason to do it.

Miller’s is an okay place to grab a quick lunch. Nothing more /​nothing less. Plenty of TVs to watch ‘the game’. Meh, ‘nough said.

I really enjoyed the fish tacos. It was super crowded but the wait was short. We had an attentive server and fast service. The wings are amazing! I’d recommend this far over going to Fridays.

It’s a typical sports bar with lots of TVs. As for the food, yeh maybe I just ordered the wrong stuff. I got 7oz flat steak with baked potato and green beans. Very small chewy piece of steak, potato tasted like it was in their oven a month. It was over baked if you can actually do that… green beans were not appealing at all. I think it’s an ok place to go drink and meet friends but the food is lacking.

Been here a few times … Service is ok… For the most part we get the nachos aptzr, today the hubs and I switched it a bit… Got the mango habanero wings … Really good, Philly cheesesteak was good … Salad? Omg huge disappointment … Skimpy as hec! Wow !!! Guess you can’t go to a bar-​like restaurant and expect good salad portions (not even with the added chicken breast)

This restaurant has a solid craft beer selection which is star-​earning in my book. The menu also has a great variety from seafood, to burgers, to chicken sandwiches: all great pairings with an IPA.
I love all the wood paneling, wood booths, and fish-​themed decorations. It reminds me of being in a Florida Ale House. Prices are relatively cheap compared to other Lombard Restaurants around the mall and Butterfield, and the atmosphere is relaxed.
The restaurant seemed short-​staffed when we were here. The host was the same as our waiter! More power to him for multi-​tasking, but I think he had too many responsibilities and was not able to check on us as frequently as I would have liked.
Based on the atmosphere and prices, this place is more of a 3.5 star range, but I wouldn’t push it to 4 stars. The quality of the food is just meh. I got a burger with sautéed onions, sautéed mushrooms, cheddar cheese, and all the fixings. I asked for it medium but the burger was not juicy and tasted overdone. Not quite what I was looking for, when I was ravenous after a long 18 hole game down the street.
I would come here again, it’s an agreeable place, and maybe try something new off the menu.

This place is definitely what you make of it. I came in around 3 PM yesterday with two of my girl friends. We had a great server and there were pitches of $ 10 margaritas. For a wind down after work, it was perfect. We split the zinger fries which my friend told me they’re known for. They were pretty good, but not overly amazing. They were $ 12 and probably not enough for us to split. My two friends ended up splitting another order of hot zingers.
We shared two pitchers of margarits and we all walked out feeling good. I recommend them as they made them strong in my opinion. (My friends drink margaritas all the time though and said they were average.) We also ordered the dessert even though I felt like I needed to be rolled out of here already. There was a nice guy server in a Blackhawks jersey that brought it out. When he heard me get excited about the cherry on top, he offered to bring out 2 more cherries for my friends. His friendly service, as well as our other server get 5 stars.
Overall though I’d give it a 3. It was decent for a happy hour type place, but I can’t say I’d make it my new after-​work stop or even a dinner spot.

They have a nice additional patio area with a fireplace. Plenty of tvs and nice crowd. Food is above average but still not that great. They don’t have any games like pool darts etc but it still is a place I’d bring my kids. Went on st pattys weekend. They had green very, super cool! Offer bud light specials and that’s why they stole my heart. Nice staff, could improve some food though and maybe add games or outside patio.

I liked our waitress, and the bar food was good.
Why is this place called an Ale House if their beer list sucks?
If you’re looking for craft beer, you’re going to want to go somewhere else.

Saturday night, a couple days after Christmas? Nearly every restaurant in the Lombard area is packed with an hour-​plus wait. After going to a couple places and not wanting to wait, we called this place. No wait! Well… There’s a reason for that.
This isn’t anything special.
Miller’s is a nice-​looking, but typical bar & grill with a typical menu. First impression based on atmosphere? Not bad. Impression based on the food? Meh. Tortilla chips were flavorless, although the spinach dip and salsa were somewhat edible. Fish & chips were nothing spectacular — no flavor, no pizzazz, just bland fish and fries. The group I was dining with all seemed to enjoy their meals but I just picked at mine. I wasn’t hungry to start with, but the food here just turned me off. Nothing to get excited about.
Why is this place even here?

I really like this place! It’s pretty chill most nights but it can get busy when there’s a good game on.
There’s tvs everywhere, a bar in the middle of the restaurant and also in the lounge area on the far end of the building. I really have never had a bad seat.
Food is always decent. I’ve tried almost everything on the menu except for fish so I don’t know how that is but I’ve never been disappointed with anything else.
Good beers on tap. Sad that the one I wanted tonight they had just ran out of but it worked out ok. They have tons of other choices and good cocktails as well!
They always have a good drink and food special. Tonight it was $ 8.95 for 5 Bud Lights that we chose to partake in :)
Service is hit or miss. I’ve had really lame waitresses and really personable ones like the one we had tonight, Beth, she was great.
This is a regular meeting place for my friends and I. We actually have been here the last 3 years for March Madness and it’s awesome.
Consistent service and food and a casual atmosphere, I really like coming here and I will and HAVE recommended it to many people!
