    It was like walking into a museum--all kinds of sports! We had a pepperoni pizza, with plenty of pepperoni! Also a couple of local draft beers which we liked. The wait staff was very friendly & attentive. I would definitely make a point of going back on my next trip to Chicago!

    The food, beverage, service and view at Harry Caray's was superb. Far from touristy, the setting and value is a great getaway even for people like us that live in Chicago. The burger, salads and salsa were terrific. We always count on Harry Caray's when we have guests in town that are curious to see Navy Pier and take a boat ride.

    We did the Tailgate package for the game. Great value! Only thing I would've requested was a few more options for the buffet besides just deep-fried foods.

    Thanks for joining us for Tailgate! We’re glad you enjoyed the value, and we appreciate the feedback on the buffet options. We’ll definitely keep that in mind for future events!

    Harry Carays on Navy Pier is a favourite of mine to take out of town visitors to in the summer. Service is welcoming and attentive. On this occasion we had the Holy cow burger (one of my favourites) and the Windy City Sausage Pizza, which was delicious. Food here is consistently good!
