Bites Nearby: For Over 25 Years, Palmer Place Has the Recipe for Success

Huge imported beer menu, juicy burgers and a great outdoor patio!

I can’t think of a better way to dine in the summertime than at an outdoor patio, eating a big fat juicy burger and sipping an ice cold beer. Well, that’s just what at 56 N. La Grange Road in La Grange is doing every day.

Permeating with a pub decor, the interior is what you’d expect, not a lot of bling… just warm and comfortable.

When you wind your way to the back of Palmer Place, you’ll find the bar. That section has always reminded me of a college bar atmosphere. Adorning the walls is artwork from artists like Guinness and Budweiser and plenty of TVs to keep up with your favorite team.
