Wild Bull Bar and Grill

Went here for bar and had no complaints.
Went here to play pool and was dissatisified. Both tables had missing cue balls. So i was forced to use the extra yellow ball in the vegetable bucket that they hold the balls in. The balls were dirty and had bbq fingerprints on one of them. The pool stick was missing the tip and also had bbq smeared on it. Employee that we tried asking for help from obviously didnt care but she acted like an airhead and was very rude.

I think this place is closed. Went to go check it out the other day and the door were locked, the lights were off, I could here some sort of beeping alarm in the background, and there was an orange «notice of ownership of equipment» sticker on the front door. Another one bites the dust, I guess.

I THINK THIS PLACE IS NOW CLOSED! I had some friends who worked here and I stopped by today to say hi, but the door was still locked after it said it should be opened, and there were two stickers on the door. One large florescent orange one from a heating /​air conditioning company that said this bar had some of their heating equipment (like it was delivered and installed, but Wild Bull never paid their invoice.) The other sticker was an envelope with a «moving guide» from Fed Ex. So maybe they’ve moved, because they definitely aren’t there.

Went here to redeem a Groupon on a Thursday night. Got there around 6 and it was fairly empty, but not empty enough to feel uncomfortable.
On Thursday’s they have $ 3 you call its and half price appetizers before 7. However if you are using a Groupon, «no specials for you!». That bothered me a little bit, but the bill was so small after the Groupon it ended up being ok.
Service was slow in the beginning, but got better as the night went on. I ordered wings and fries, which were both alright. Wings were on the smaller side, but I have had worse wings other places. My wife had a burger and it was a good size. Regular beer offerings as other bars also.
It’s a big place and looks like it would be lots of fun during UFC fights and other events.
Not as bad as other reviews posted on Unilocal.If you are looking for a new place to go that has a nice neighborhood feel, this place is right up your alley.

I have a friend that DJs here every Thursday night and it’s a great time. Great drink specials… good drinks… great music… decent crowd… in my hood. What more can I ask for?

Before we even got to the front entrance, some fat dude smoking and laughing like Beevis and Butthead accosted us. When he realized how solid Jason is compared to his blubber, he backed down and quickly apologized.
We were greeted by a friendly, young man with an ear piece. He told us to sit any where. There were no seats barside available so we chose one booth along the windows. NO service! We relocated to a booth along the wall. Still, NO service! I got up and asked the guy,“How do I get some service at our table?” A short while later, the manager stopped by with an apology for the delay, assuring us someone would be around shortly to take our order. There was a breakdown in communication or something because we waited for a few more minutes. Just as we got up to leave, the server finally arrived.
The place was extremely loud with a live DJ performing on the opposite side of the room. I love the type of music he was playing!
There is absolutely no need for the music pumping that loudly. No one was dancing. The Bulls were losing. It’s very hard to concentrate on the game when the music is blasting my eardrums and I’m shouting across the table to be heard.
The perfect Black and Blue was made. It’s not often the beer ratio comes to me in equal parts. Jason ordered a Corona.
The experience made me not want to stay long so we had one drink, 2 appetizers (fried cheese ravioli and beer battered bread) and left.

We come here all the time for Wednesday wing night specials which are great, my husband would really wish they add a mild to the wings as he can’t take the heat! Cheap food and drinks!
Definitely will return!

Wings are great, burgers are even better. A great change of pace from chain restaurants. Service is exceptional and managed well. No complaints at all, would eat at again.
Been here before a few months ago. Place is much improved. Management is much better.

My wife and I went here to eat some wings and watch the Bears game. To start things off, the bartender was very condescending. She had herself a good chuckle when my wife ordered water, and had a snotty answer for every question we asked.
I could put up with this, but sitting at the half-​empty bar with an empty glass for literally ten minutes is unacceptable. Especially when the bartender keeps walking back and forth past you, seemingly trying to avoid you.
On the bright side, the food was good. The wings were small and heavily breaded (and thus filling), but saturated in a delicious sauce.
Would I return? Wouldn’t be my first choice, but it’s possible. I might grab a booth, depending on who is bartending that night.

Typical Townie Bar… Service was what I expected from a bar of its nature, the dollar burgers on Tuesdays were worthy of that dollar price-​tag (not bad I would have maybe paid a buck fiddy if it came down to it… but not a dime more). Wings were blah-​zay okay.
My MAJOR problem was the management of this place. Upon going to this place 4 – 5 times for karaōke championships (grand prize of $ 500) on finals night the winner was not given the $ 500 but was given $ 200 in Wild Bull gift cards… changing rules for promotional contests on contest winner selection date is a BULL sheet thing to do.
Eventually the winner received payment (in $ 5 bills pulled from the sever til) another management flub…

I’ve been to a pretty large number of karaōke competitions. I don’t enjoy going to these competitions nor do I like dragging my friends out to support the nightmarish suckfests. I do it for the money. Although I am no William Hung, I believe I have a standing chance of taking home that cash.
That being said, you can understand why the only «wild bull» was me when I was handed $ 200 in gift certificates instead of $ 500 grand prize money promised.
Deets: Qualifying rounds were September 27^th through November 29^th (day of finals) $ 500 1^st Place, $ 150 2^nd, and $ 50 3^rd.
I qualified the first night and gave them my email address. I was told we would be notified to come back for the finals taking place on Nov 29^th. Now I know how politics go at these things. Susie «I’m friends with half the staff because I’m here every night» BarTroll wins after butchering a few country songs. So I show up a couple other Tuesdays to show face and hang out. The place was empty each time.
Fast forward to November 29^th. No email. No phone call. I ask about it on their Facebook page, no answer. I call and talk to someone:
Me: «Is the karaōke contest tonight?»
Girl: «yes»
Me: «The finals? For Sure?»
Girl: «Yes, Yes»
I round up some friends, promote on Facebook and show up for the finals that night to find out– there was no finals. Seems as if I was left off the list of people notified too because I was the only jackass that showed up. My friends and I decided to make the most of it and stay to hang out. Spending more hard earned cash at place I would never actually want to hang out at in the first place. Awful DJ’s «mixing» their iPod playlists and an entire cast of Jersey Shore rejects ain’t my thing. I’d rather do speed dating at a Walmart.
Next week: Actual Finals.
I drag what friends I could back again. No one I know lives anywhere near Schaumburg so it was a lot to ask. We drank and ate and the contest commenced. 9:30pm-12;45pm. Finally they announce the winner. I win! Excitement… then… rage.
Turns out Wild Bull didn’t have the money to pay the contest winners. Actually, they were canceling Karaōke Tuesdays all together. I wasn’t notified of the date change because the original person I gave my email address to was no longer the owner. They didn’t tell anyone until it was time to close that night. Event the KJ didn’t know and he was the one nominated to break the bad news to us «winners». $ 500 cash first place turned into $ 200 Wild Bull gift certificates, second place $ 100 in WB GC, third $ 50 of the same.
Rage… riots… tantrums… profanity… throwing things… threats… and so on…
Basically I got my money. Only after refusing to leave until they got the owner on the phone, emptied every last dollar they had, and paid what was promised.
Bottom line: Wild Bull shouldn’t have promoted a contest they can’t afford to pay for. It could have easily been avoided by canceling the contest instead of stringing us along for weeks. Not cool.
The only positive to mention was our waitress the night of the finals. She busted her ass being the only waitress that night. We tipped her well for putting up with the drama.

The waitress we had was working her tail off, but they were understaffed for how busy it was. The management is a joke. The dollar burger sounded enticing, but it was a freezer burned hockey puck. We were there for a Karaōke contest, where they ripped off the winners until they caused a scene and the mgr had to call the boss and they kept everyone there until 130am to get paid. I’m not ever going back. It sounds like the new management really is driving the place into the ground.
Karaōke DJ’s had the music blaring so loud that my ears were ringing like I’d just been to a concert… going to see a professional musican at that volume is one thing, but some of those singers… ugh.

This place is horrible! Cheap drinks! I have only been here a few times for Thursday $ 3 you call its. Which isn’t a bad deal. But the place itself sucks! The inside is just ugly, always dead and a lot of older people. It use to be a little busier.
It’s under new ownership now, so they are doing some remodeling… I really hope it helps!

I LOVE THIS PLACE.
So I absolutely love coming here. I have been here a few times – sometimes for a game and a couple drinks, sometimes for a band, and for more than one large birthday celebration including my husband’s! We were a group of about 25 people, and they accommodated us really well!
Last night, my girls and I had an event to go to, so we went to the bar before for some pre-​event cocktails. Before the hour was up, we had agreed that we would be back right after for a few more. The drinks are a generous pour, the bartenders are really nice, and the manager, John Lawniczak is MORE than amazing!
They have trivia Wednesdays, $ 3 you call its on Thursday, and other awesome specials throughout the week. Great music is playing over the speakers when there’s not a band, and there are TVs everywhere you look! the food is even good – I really like their nachos!
We will be back again and again – especially because of John – he really knows how to make his customers feel welcome!

Went here on a date once, date didn’t turn out well yet I loved the atmosphere of this bar! The bar staff was super friendly and although I didn’t eat here then the food smelled good.
After that date I went back with a friend and had some food and beers. We enjoyed the bar a lot since we had good conversations with a man at the bar and our bartender. She took care of us well and the food was really good! I will def. be back soon!

The ambiance here is a very relaxed, casual bar, funny bouncer. Friendly & super attentive waitresses. Music was kind of sucky however you can pay & pick the music played. The crowd on a Friday night was very mixed. About ²⁄₃ the patrons were over 40 and ¹⁄₃ under 30. My friends and I are 27 and we felt like we were the youngest ones in there aside from other group of guys.
We saw they have trivia nights which we think would be fun to come back & try!

It’s time to state that I’ve come to like Wild Bull. Trivia nights bring me in, which can be fun anywhere, in my opinion. That said, the prices are good, and I actually recommend the food. On Wednesdays, the buffalo chicken wraps are only $ 5 and full of tomato, lettuce and bleu cheese — you can do ranch if that’s your thing — which make for a refreshing and tasty sandwich. My personal favorite — again, which could be good almost anywhere, but here for something like $ 3 — tater tots. So good!
The speaker system is still loud, and I imagine it could get crowded during games. There are still some service inconsistencies (i.e. it takes a while to get the check back with credit and sometimes we get cups and sometimes we don’t with our ever classy order of big boys). Either way, I figure an update is due.

Overall this place is a solid 2 ½ to 3 stars. It’s exactly what I would expect from a place with «Wild» and «Bull» in its name. They have a fairly extensive menu of bar food and it is very reasonably priced. The portions are generous and the service has always been very good.
Inside looks a little run down, but again, it’s a sports bar so I’m not going to knock it too badly. I’ve had the wings, buffalo chicken wrap, burgers and the cheese pizza for $ 5.00 on Friday. Overall a good value and a great place to stop in for a quick bite and a couple drinks.
Not that I’m a fan but my husband loves UFC and they are the only bar in our area (that I am aware of) that does not charge a cover to stay for the fight.

My friend pooped here, despite my advice against pooing in a bar. But when i went to the bathroom, the toilets were very clean, even though the bar was very crowded. I would not have been afraid to poo here myself, actually. However, I must assume readers of this review don’t plan on coming here solely because the turtle is ready to poke it’s head out.
Like I said, it was crowded, which I guess isn’t the usual case, but there was a game on and they have big screen TV’s. But there were many d-​bags that had groups of 2 people and took up tables for up to 6. There was barely any parking whatsoever, and the service left something to be desired. But, there were many cute waitresses and the drinks were priced decently. I guess that’s about all that can be said of my experience and having gone here one time on an unusual night.

I’ve been coming here again and again and this is a very solid place. Very very pleased that it’s around.
Since last time: They got two huge projector screen tvs, that take up most of the wall. They got their entertainment license so all of you people who like live bands and karaōke get ready; it should coming around soon. They have all this space in the corner perfect for a band or karaōke machine.
The service here has always been top notch every single time. Friendly people, fun bar staff and wait staff. The manager is awesome, the owner is awesome.
I had the boneless wings for their Wednesday food special. They were quite good, and only $ 0.39 cents each, which is $ 0.10 cheaper each than BW3.
The place is still very clean, dunno what else to say… I’m very enamored by this place… dart board and a pool table would be nice though :)
you should definitely check this place out
