White Hart Pub,

255 East Illinois Road, Lake Forest, IL 60045

"Service is impeccable. Waitstaff and all the other staff we encountered was very friendly and attentive. The foodis very good. We had the calamari started and the risotto for main. I recommend the Ranch Water drink as well."

"This was exactly the vibe that I was looking for for a nice meal before Christmas. I’ve never been to Deer Path but I am so glad I went. The cocktails were great, the service was fantastic and the food was delicious. I loved the fireplace vibes too."

"The Pub has long been a staple of our family's dining out in lake forest. We always enjoyed the atmosphere and the drinks and food. In fact our grandparents introduced us to the restaurant many, many years ago. Lately however, the service namely from the hostess (she doesn't display a name tag but is there most nights and acts superior to the guests,absolutely does not belong there) has been not only disrespectful but off-putting to the point we no longer recommend the Pub to our friends and family in LF. On any given night we are routinely told the wait for a table is an hour and a half...and this is larvely due to their policy of no reservations. No reservations! So you roll the dice every time then come in hoping to eat and you 9 times out of 10 cannot as the standard line is given of "We are busy and the wait is 90 minutes". Deer Path Inn, you're a first rate hotel and as such please hire a hostess with decorum suitable for your name and make reservations an option at the pub."

"If I get food poisoning tomorrow, I will still go back to this restaurant. That's how good it is. Sure, that's a weird way of saying you like something but my normal flowery words just don't do it justice, so I had to go weird. It's not cheap. It's tight (just like any good London eatery). You can't make reservations so there is always a wait (go early). But the food is fantastic. It's rich as hell. All of it, from the appetizers to the soup to the main courses, is just delicious. It's so tasty that even after you're pleasantly full, and you know you've eaten more than you should, the smells of everyone else's plates still make you hungry as you leave the pub. If the rich people atmosphere makes you a little jumpy, just wiggle your toes, grin, and enjoy the people watching! Oh, and get dessert. It doesn't matter if you don't have any room left. Do it. You'll thank me later."

"What a great pub experience! Never been there before but for sure will be back... great beers and cocktails even chartuse? Sp? Which we have not seen at bars in years."
