Tucked away in Hickory Hills on Roberts Rd just North of 95th, The Sock Bar & Grill is a sports aficionado's paradise that serves up not only a winning lineup of games on multiple TVs but also a menu that'll keep you coming back for more.
The moment you step in, the atmosphere envelops you in the true spirit of a sports bar. The buzz of excitement fills the air, amplified by the sights and sounds of games on every screen. The digital jukebox sets the perfect soundtrack for your visit, adding an extra layer of energy to the lively ambiance.
One of the standout features is the wrap-around bar, a hub of activity where the barmaids are on point, delivering swift service and deserved attention to patrons. They greet you with genuine smiles, ready to recommend a drink or chat about the latest game. If you're seeking a bit more privacy, the separate rooms for private parties offer a cozy setting for celebrations and gatherings.
Now, let's talk about the star players on their menu. The fried pickles are a game-changer--thick-cut and perfectly crispy, they're a savory delight that keeps you reaching for more. The loaded nachos bring a fiesta to your taste buds with layers of cheese, fresh toppings, and just the right kick of spice. And let's not forget their flatbread pizza--Chicago style at its finest, boasting flavorful toppings atop a crispy crust that's pure satisfaction.
The Chicago dogs pack a punch of flavor, although they fell slightly short without the iconic poppyseed bun. Nevertheless, the taste is spot-on, a tribute to the Windy City's famous dog.
But it's not just the food that scores big at The Sock Bar & Grill--the drinks are fantastic! Whether it's their signature cocktails or a classic brew, they've got something to quench every thirst. And amidst the excitement and delicious bites, there's one constant--a welcoming smile from Kasha (spelling might need correction), who adds an extra touch of warmth to the experience.
Overall, The Sock Bar & Grill hits a home run with its inviting atmosphere, mouthwatering menu, and stellar service. It's the kind of place where sports enthusiasts, foodies, and friends gather for an unforgettable time. So, grab a seat, cheer for your team, and indulge in a winning combination of great food, drinks, and hospitality at The Sock Bar & Grill. Cheers to a fantastic game day experience!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Nexhmi J L.Northbrook, IL80610Oct 15, 2023

We came here for the Cubs playoff game against the Giants on a Saturday as it was one of the closest sports bars in the area.
We grabbed a table, sat down and started watching the game on the big screen. We couldn't help but notice there was a bunch of musical instruments right in front of the tv. At the time, it wasn't blocking the view to the point where I cared enough, however then the band started moving in and setting up their equipment as the game was going on. I thought to myself "are you kidding me"? Getting ready to play music right in front of the big screen tv as a very important game is going on at a sports bar? Yes, I realize there's other tv's to watch, but common. This was the best screen to watch it on in the house.
Service was good. We got the pizza and pitcher of beer special and definitely have no complaints about that.
Another thing that got on my nerves was the table that we sat at. It's literally so close to another table which is right in between the bathrooms. Every time someone needed to go to the bathroom, we had to scooch in or move. Still though, we had the best table available watching the best tv available. Too bad both were such a distraction.
...and maybe this is a Sox bar, not really sure. Still though, it's a sports bar in the suburbs of Chicago during a very important playoff game that a Chicago team is in. We paid the bill and found the next sports bar right in the middle of the game.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Lynn B.Hickory Hills, IL026Feb 8, 2021
Stop in the Sock Bar and Grill this past Saturday, there was a total of 6 people in the whole place. Bathrooms were absolutely filthy, toilet paper all over the floor and dried urine on the seat of the women's bathroom. Men's bathroom was filled with drain flies from urinals. When I spoke to the bartender she told me she was there alone and didn't have a bar back. Being that is wasn't busy at all not sure why she could go in and clean the bathroom instead of forcing people to leave and go else where.

The food is pretty good, but the owner is very rude and the service was horrible. It took us about 35 mins to even place our order for food.
