☕🍸 Okay but have you tried ours?

Removing caffeine from your diet removes 60% of your will to live so we combined it with something even better.

Our bartenders are shaking up espresso martinis that hit just right. Smooth, bold, perfectly balanced — and yes, they're as good as they look.

A family restaurant with a bar that actually slaps. Didn't know we had this side? Now you do. 😏

Come for the food. Stay for the drinks.

What people say

Firehouse Grill, located on Chicago Avenue in Evanston, is a unique and historic bar & grill that offers a one-of-a-kind dining experience. The building was originally constructed as the Number 2 Firehouse in the early 1900s and has since been repurposed into a car dealership before finally becoming the beloved Firehouse Grill. The restaurant's interior still retains its original charm with exposed brick walls, high ceilings, and even the tower that was once used to dry fire hoses.

The menu at Firehouse Grill is American cuisine with a twist. From their famous burgers to their delicious salads and sandwiches, there is something for everyone. They also offer an extensive selection of craft beers and cocktails to complement your meal.

One of the most unique features of Firehouse Grill is their birthday parties where servers come down the poles to present cakes to party guests. This tradition dates back to when the building was first turned into a restaurant in the mid-70s and has become a beloved tradition among locals.

Overall, Firehouse Grill is a must-visit destination for anyone looking for great food, drinks, and an unforgettable dining experience in Evanston.
