The first suburban outpost of John Barleycorn opened its doors on March 14. This place can only be described as huge: It's a two-story brick behemoth plopped down on the corner of American Lane and National Parkway just west of Woodfield Mall, so new you can still spot plenty of construction fencing and dirt piles throughout the lot. The main floor is split into a bar and a dining room, with a subtle-enough dose of nautical decor and flat-panel TVs displayed nearly everywhere you look.  

The second floor boasts a sprawling dance floor, three bars and a stage, where cover bands will play on weekends. Along either side of the space, you'll find a dozen booths decked out for bottle service. And though it's not open yet, we're told a second-floor outdoor patio will open come summer.

out and about from west town - May 6, 2008

Place is really nice. Food is ok. Service is horrible! Not bad to go on a weekday. Good place to go to watch a band you like but thats about it.
