Shannon HallowellOctober 10, 2015Love the pizza! We just moved to Chicago from upstate NY and were worried we wouldn't be able to find good thin crust pizza. This place nailed it. Better than most places back home. Pizza's are HUGE!
Krista marie ImusJuly 25, 2017Grab a slice of the boiler room for a little sweat on your upper lip, or pepperoni for a greasy delight. Cash only but if you use their atm, you get a free shot of Jamie. Also the pb&j deal is now $10
Great thin crust pizza, boozy ice cream! Get the PB&J, shot of Jameson, PBR, and a slice. Now have a back patio area too (much needed space). Cash only, but if you use the atm get a shot with receipt.
Always changing, creative pizza with a super chill atmosphere. Boozy ice cream is worth a trip here from anywhere in the city. Cash only but turn in that receipt for a shot.
Chip HamlettOctober 29, 2017The house special is the PB&J. That's a Pabst tall can, a shot of Jameson, and a slice of 'za. That's $10. Used to be less. Cash only, but there's an ATM that dispenses Jameson.
Michael CFebruary 24, 2019Some of the best pizza ever. I normally avoid weird themed pizza but the buffalo chicken pizza was everyone's favorite. Thin crust style. Get a few.
Redeye ChicagoFebruary 4, 2016The Boiler Room is the perfect place to get great pizza and great beer. Sounds too good to be true? Try a slice or two and the Pabst Blue Ribbon tall boy and then come talk to us. Read more
Elijah OlsonOctober 5, 2016It's one of my favorites. Great atmosphere, great staff, great deals. The PB&J special is simply wonderful. Get here early on weekends or you will wait hours for a table.
Chicago TribuneAugust 1, 2014The menu's best-kept secret (for now, anyway) is the Drunkin' Donuts, an original, affordable dessert that sounds almost too good to be true. Read more
I go here a lot. The pizza is awesome and the bourbon ice cream is to die for! The staff is always pretty great too.
Carrie JeanJuly 9, 2015The Purist. Just mozzarella, basil and balsamic reduction, but it's so good, even my non vegetarian friends go here just for that slice.
Amy LebowskyOctober 5, 2015The PB&J special really IS such a great deal and the pizza is pretty great (but it's no Piece, make no mistake!). I love the train themed bathrooms. Clever.
Bobby KennedyJanuary 2, 2016Great place to grab a slice or two of pizza and a craft beer (or two). Cash only. Patio out back in the summer.
Bring cash and an appetite. These pizzas are huge! Recommend "the beet" to start and veggies have many options, including seitan sausage and pepperoni.
Ambience and experience are fantastic. Not mention some of THE BEST SLICES in Chicago! PBJ combo!! Cash only; use their ATM - save receipt for Jameson shot
Tracy TakacsJuly 8, 2015Easy going,no frills place. Good place to meet friends before hitting up other places or a good place to end the night.
Steph TaylorFebruary 5, 2016$8.50 for a PB&J (pizza, beer, Jameson) is one of the best deals in the neighborhood. Try the Puritan slice.
ChicagoistSeptember 26, 2014The Boiler Room’s crust has the perfect crunch—puffy without being doughy. Get the BBQ pizza (barbecue sauce, cheddar, pineapple, and pulled pork or chicken).

Chris ChavezJuly 22, 2013This place never disappoints. Delicious pizza (the Purist is bomb), huge backyard and, of course, a free Jameson shot when you use their ATM.
The specialty pizza is good, but you have to get the doughnuts and Jameson ice cream.
Serious EatsJanuary 6, 2014Chicago has very few joints serving thin-crusted pizza by the slice. The Boiler is one of the best.- Amy LebowskyOctober 16, 2014Delicious craft-like cocktails. Pizza didn't blow me away. Love the back patio. Ready for three seasons.
Cash only but use the ATM and in exchange for paying the $2.75 fee you get a free $3 Jameson shot. Win!
Awesome pizza joint with great craft beers. Also for vegans don't miss out Tuesdays vegan night special pizza!- Tremendous pizza and great deals on drinks ($3 PBR tall boys and Jameson shots to name a few).
Samantha RangelOctober 20, 2015The pizza is very NY style (thin and foldable) with a definite taste of tap water present in the crust. Our server was terribly inattentive but that didn't appear to be a trend amongst all staff.
Herb SeitzSeptember 6, 2014Spinach artichoke dip is amazing, wash it down with a good craft beer followed by a specialty pizza. Bring cash - no cc accepted- Chicago TribuneJanuary 12, 2017Boiler Room's mac and cheese pizza sounds like a starchy mess, but the Logan Square joint shows real care with the cheesy beast. Read more
Sitting outside, Jameson ice cream, Stiegal Grapefruit Radler :) I find it too loud inside and typically don't enjoy it.- Ryan RuggaardOctober 20, 2018Chicago is known for deep dish, but this is some of the best non-deep dish in the city.
Get the PB&J - big slice of pizza, shot of Jameson and a PBR tall boy for $7.50. Good mix of music too
Arié MoyalJanuary 9, 2015They have Crabbie's ginger beer! And it's cash only but am ATM receipt gets you a shot of Jameson
Angela Evans-MantoJanuary 15, 2016The pizza and the drinks are really good especially the French one with lavender:
Doug WamplerJanuary 30, 2013PBR is a great combination of fiscal responsibility and fun experience in a hip neighborhood, but the pizza is just ok compared to other pizzerias.
Zach SmithNovember 17, 2015Pizza by the slice is clutch late at night. Good drink prices. Jameson on tap. Cash only.
The owners are my good friends! Tip kindly! Working on beer and bread specials I love a challenge
Don't miss the Jameson fro-yo (or try one of the other rotating favors). Whiskey and vanilla, how can you go wrong.
Anamaria HernandezNovember 10, 2013Get the PB&J: slice of pizza, PBR tall boy, and a shot of Jameson. $8.50. So worth it!
Paige KaliskiAugust 9, 2016the party favor root beer float.... great for a sweet craving on a night out
Brooke Morris-ChottApril 8, 2015Great for late night eats, especially if you're craving pizza and booze.
Hampton Inn Carol Stream HotelApril 24, 2014Great hangout for pizza and beer. I gotta love it 'cause it's a few block from my house!
Tim O'BryanAugust 25, 2014PB & J is always a yes. Cash only, but save your ATM receipt and get a free shot of Jameson.
Luis RamosJuly 2, 2013Came here for lunch on my birthday, and I almost stayed all day! PBR and Jameson everywhere! Jameson soft serve!? YES!!
PBJ Special. Slice of pizza, tall boy of PBR, and shot of jameo for $8.50.
Jess-ay YoMay 4, 2016Chill and quick-off-the-Blue-Line stop for a drink and a slice on the way to O'Hare, especially mid-day.
