Pug Mahones Irish Pub & Grill — Restaurant in Fox Lake

I was happy to find a place that was popular for St Patrick's day. The thing I & my party of 5 didn't like was we were seated at a both & we were waiting for so long for someone to come to us. We had nobody coming, my friend went to the bar to order drinks & while she did that we caught a work person & said we wanted to order some food. She said it's not my table yet she will let them know. We got our drinks & we waited for some time our waitress finally arrived & I ordered some food. It took so long for us to get food. We asked twice when our food will arrive. She responded it's coming it's coming. She never stained at our table but 30 seconds to 1 minute. It was so packed & busy. Not many tables or booths to serve 3 wait staff & yet it was so slow. A good business owner to do the right thing on any holiday is to staff up your employees & bar renders as well as the kitchen. With such a crowd you need enough staff to turn over your tables. Also why was there so many children in this bar on this night. This was my& some of my friends first time there & I wasn't...

I come here for a casual night with friends and it's the perfect setting. It's big enough so you don't feel as though you are on top of all of the other customers, they have high top tables around the bar for seating, the actual bar, booths along the wall, in addition to outside seating and the outdoor bar. It doesn't look that big from the outside but it's much larger inside. It's very dive bar-esque, which is my favorite. Carol, the owner, is the sweetest lady and it's so nice to see her in the kitchen or talking to customers. All of the bartenders are good but Tiffany is one of the best bartenders/servers I've ever experienced, anywhere. Her attention to detail is amazing, she never lets you run out of a drink and she'll always remember your favorites. The food is also amazing, the cheese curds are delicious and the garlic parm chicken wings are some of the best. I can't say much about this place in terms of the nightlife, but if you are looking for an easy night for dinner and some drinks, this is a...

The food is unbelievably delicious and fresh to order. Carol is the sweetest person you will ever meet. The atmosphere is awesome all around. This place has everything you could ever imagine. Pool, darts, gambling machines, outdoor areas, beach volleyball courts, etc. It is incredibly clean, and there is no smoking indoors, which is awesome. It is so nice to go somewhere that doesn't stink of smoke and filth. The bathrooms are really nice and clean. There is no detail that hasn't been taken into consideration here. The location is awesome right off the water. It's in an easy location to find. There's plenty of parking. The staff is great. I highly recommend stopping in for a visit. You will not be...
