It is very good sandwich, like very good. And breads are amazing. But Jesus Christ the wait time is insane when you order walk in. Staff said all orders are pre order and thats why some orders are faster. Absolutely, I understand but not when I watch a guy order after me walk out 40m before I get my order. At least an apology would have been appreciated, but I got tomato butts instead.

We had the pleasure of eating here, and we came all the way from Houston Tx (and us Houstonian know to appreciate high quality meat...). I’ve been wanted to come here for so long and was beyond thrilled to try different items. Oh boy! Mind blowing. Yummy yummy I got love in my tummy!!! Thank you guys for making my dreams come true and willing to go off menu. I wanna move to Chicago just because of you ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I love this place. I work in commercial production and always recommend their charcuterie boards when needed to feed clients.I also buy them for special occasions, like an anniversary or birthday. I just ordered one for my birthday and they included delicious cookie and added a nice note in the box. I will be a life long patron.

Great food in a prime location. We went there for brunch and booked one of the outdoor tents for extra safety which was clean and comfortable. Everything was touchless including the payment.The food was on point, I loved the Delicata, Publican scramble and the chocolate coffee cake. We ended up ordering two additional coffee cakes to go.Would definitely recommend.

I pre ordered valentine special croissants here and picked up.Croissants were so delicious.

This place is grade A top choice meat 🍖! Everything here from the pasties to the iced coffee ☕ was excellent. Must come here and try.

Sandwiches, soups, and bread/pastries are top notch. They can probably just survive on the quality of their coffee/expresso and pastries alone. But it’s also a butcher shop with cuts and meat products you won’t easily find anywhere else in the city. Locally sourced and the highest quality. The old spirit of Fulton Market lives on.

Loved their charcuterie board to go!Fast and efficient pick up.It had an incredible selection of meats and cheeses that were thoughtfully identified.Took it home and had a picnic with the puppy paired with gin and tonics!

PQM is amazing but be prepared to take some time there, quality like this isnt quick most of the time. Dine in, sandwiches and an always surprising array of baked wonders. But its their butcher and cheese counter where the true treasure lies. This is $$$ but of so worth it. Easily some of the best quality meat in the city. Order ahead for weekends and holidays as the can get busy.

The butchers breakfast is literally among the best breakfasts I’ve ever had. Highly recommended. Service was fast and friendly too.

Every trip to Chicago we make time to visit. Always perfect.

Vegans Beware, jk come in. Came across this place because because I could smell it from outside. That’s how you know a place is going to be good. The meat and cheese selections were amazing. The wine list could have been better, only reason it has 4 stars. If you’re looking for a real adventure, check out the bathrooms. Would definitely come here again.

Thx for Greate shop=).

Great service, high quality meats and breads! The PST club was great!

So good. Was there for a private event, so I cant speak to its normal operations and menu, but we had a wide variety of foods, starting with meats and cheeses, and ending with an baked apple- based dish and everything was just great. Thoughtful and inventive dishes with twists that elevated the traditional ingredients to an almost exotic level.

The short ribs were so flavorful. As you can tell I smashed through this meal and so will you. Order the tartar, mussels and short ribs. Get drunk too. Why not?

Food was amazing but service was on another level. Such sweet and welcoming people!

The cashier is always extremely helpful. Rob is missed when he isnt there however.

Picture doesn’t do it justice but best chicken parm sandwich I’ve ever had. Pickle was fire too

Ive lived or worked within walking distance of PQM for 6+ years. Wonderful staff and delicious offerings. A true gem in Fulton Market.

One of my fav location in West loop! Highly recommend!

Catarina’s cheese game is strong...and they got good sammies too!Recommended:Tom’s Silver Medal

Simply amazing.. the sandwich I has was very good! And the charcuterie board we had was also just simply amazing.. from the house mustards to the sourdough bread. Everything about this place is on point!

Stopped by for a lovely bowl of pozole and garlic miso salami. Nice atmosphere. Will be returning.

Nice butchery, high class meat from the best farms in IL, and if you wanna have lunch they have a great sandwich menu I highly recommend this place

Great meats. Had the meat board butchers choice. Really interesting selections including lamb salami. Loved it. Knowledgeable and enthusiastic service. Sandwich choices look awesome.

They have the best bread in the city. However, my dining experience wasn’t great. I was hoping they use their own bread for sandwiches but it was just this white bread bun. No interaction with a waiter, you have to order online and food is brought like for to go - everything is wrapped. If I want a dining experience I will go somewhere else next time. This is more for a quick bite.

AWESOME sandwiches with quality and different cuts of meat. I started with the COSMOPOLITAN SOUP - spring onion, spring garlic, green bell peppers, jalapenos, chick peas and sour cream @ $4 for a cup. Then I had for my sandwich ITS NOT YOU; ITS BANH MI - country pâté, pork tenderloin, spicy aioli, garlic yogurt, pickled vegetables and cucumbers on italian loaf with a side of marinated kale @ $14 it was more than enough and absolutely delicious.

Perfect spot to grab a sandwich (I recommend the PQM Club and a side of fries) and a whole chicken to roast at home! Grab the marinated spatchcocked, it’s divine and the same one they serve at Publican. I also snagged some mustard, that I thought I could only by when I’m in France, so I left a very happy gal.

Tasty brunch with fast service.

Weather was nice, so walked with my dog from Printers Row and was going through as they were opening for lunch. Ive really enjoyed lunches there before, and wanted at least one last time before moving back East. Lunch was good (club on toasted sourdough). However ordered some butcher/deli takeout as I finished lunch (precooked vacuum sealed smoked turkey wings, 1/4 lb breasola) then waited over half an hour before I asked and then got it.

Great meat selection that resulted in a very delicious weekend of dry aged steak and other goodies. I wish I had realized you order online and cant go into the store, at least when I was there, I would have done that before getting there and saved myself a bunch of time. That said staff was super helpful and friendly and I was on my way quick enough.

Excellent quality food, currently with the pandemic rules it’s better that you order online before, our order took approx 20 mins to be ready. Everything was ready as we ordered and we didn’t expected to eat on site but we found that there was tables to eat and we used. Nice day to eat outside with and really tasty food. Highly recommended.

Always delicious! Made the final burger battle of the year....so very yum. Else vs Elske. Elske for the win.

The chicken liver pâté is incredible. Always a pleasure to treat ourselves here when we are in the West Loop. Make sure to grab some bread for the way home.

The PQAM 3.0 sandwich was 90% onion roll with the saddest, most anemic little sausage patty and a grey, rubbery excuse for an egg. I dont think there was any cheese and it was barely a sandwich.My girlfriend had the Market Salad with Salmon. The Salmon was cold and smoked, not as indicated and the whole dish was topped with some puffed wheatberries that were so hard, she was scared shed chip a tooth.Ive always been a faithful regular of the Publican and all the affiliated restaurants, but PQM is just phoning it in and charging a premium.

We got the three course carryout dinner with drinks tonight. It was a treat to the eyes as well as the tummy. Thanks for a fantastic dinner.

If Israeli food Tv send us to check this out, we running there ! Great quality of meat , wonderful breakfast! Heart attack

That manager...got me that olive bread...even after the closing hour...Best bread in Chicago!!!... humans of One off hospitality group...

The freashes meats in Chicago ,very friendly atmosphere, fast and Curtis service . They get all there meat with in Illinois, I like it supports the little man not the mainstream

When I do curbside next time, Im going to call early and ask if they can pack things up ready for me, so that when I call when Im there, they can simply bring it out, instead of my waiting.

100% the best sandwiches anywhere, ever. I absolutely love this place! Order anything, you cant go wrong.

Great Atmosphere And Food.

My friend and I wandered into PQM for brunch and we will absolutely be back! Every part of our meals were delicious— our breakfasts were simple (eggs, bread, and meat), but perfectly cooked and flavored. Beyond that, there was no wait (surrounding restaurants had almost 2 hr waits!) and the outdoor eating area was nicely shaded by nearby trees. The servers were attentive and efficient. All around wonderful experience!

Yesterday, my husband and I picked up an order at Publican Quality Meats. We ordered online (meat, bread, sandwiches and cookies) and opted for curbside pickup. When we got home, we realized that the wrong order was placed in our backseat. Since we live in the suburbs, we werent planning to drive to the city to correct our order. Sure, I was disappointed but I understand that restaurants are working hard to adapt to the influx of online orders, new policies and procedures, etc.When I called to inform them of the mixup, I expected a refund. I didnt expect their response: Someone would deliver our order to our house in the suburbs! I was overjoyed! An hour after I place the initial call, our order had arrived ... and was delivered by Donnie Madia! He was so gracious!Thank you, Donnie & Publican Quality Meats! You have lifelong customers - which is good because we LOVE all of your restaurants! ❤️

An employee of this company parks their delivery truck in the bike lane. This business is a bad actor in our community, and a merchant of death

A day before Thanksgiving, I found that the turkey I had ordered from them was missing a wing. I spoke with the butchers and they ended up giving me a whole new turkey! Thank you so much for standing by the quality of your products! I really appreciate you hearing me out on what was probably your busiest day of the year.Also, we ended up cooking the first turkey and bringing it to a local women’s shelter. So thank you for making that possible!

The best bread in town is back and you can order it online!!You may not be in control of your life, but you can dip fresh sourdough in olive oil and it’s the next best thing.

Some of the best and freshest meat you can buy. Dine in for breakfast or lunch and get amazing Publican Quality food without the Publican wait.

I live in Michigan, but make frequent trips to Chicago to see my daughters. I dont miss one opportunity to visit PQM for their incredible baked goods. The menu items and meats look wonderful, but I dont have time for out to brunch when I am there, so I load up on the cookies to take back home. Truly, the best and most INCREDIBLE cookies I have ever had, and I am a fantastic baker myself. The brown butter dark chocolate chunk and the milk chocolate walnut cookies (the latter made only occasionally, unless ordered in advance) are life changing. The olive bread is truly artisan quality. So, who needs brunch when you can go home and make a killer sandwich with that awesome bread, and feast on cookies for dessert?The counter people are not so much on the ball, but Molly is fantastic. She takes care of business, knows her stuff and packs your order up like the true professional that she is - nothing breaks on her watch.

Publican Quality Meats has some seriously quality meat, easily the best local sandwich shop IMO

Not only a fine selection of meats and butcher items but they got a respectable collection of cookies and baked goods. I wish the coffee was at a higher standard but it’s totally decent. Some nice brunch options also. Please follow my foodie adventures @doctoreeat

Yes to simple but sophisticated sandwiches and great sausages. Yes to charcuterie that you can have on any regular day, or dress up for a dinner party. Yes to porchetta - will you marry me, please? Yes to coffee and pastries and tasty little tidbits. Yes to the market that stocks all sorts of goodies I never though I would need but end up taking home with me. And last but not least, yes to waiting staff that may look a bit alternative but is professional and attentive and well informed about the food they sell.I’m sorry the space is small inside, although in the summer time the sidewalk tables are great.A no frills but very carefully curated alternative to the much mire expensive Publican next door. Love it.

The French born and raised guy I am is very peculiar about food and especially bread. Definitely the best bread I ever ate for the last 10 years. Delicious meat too, like my mom or grand mother would have prepare it. So genuine and authentic!!!! Worth the money for all these organic local products

Just may be the best sandwich I have ever had

The food was really good. The corn soup was delicious. Their dirty is okay. If you like nutmeg flavor in your chai.then its for you, but not my cup of tea. (No pun intended). The chicken spring sandwich was good as well. You can ask for bread too.

Attended a work event here and it was amazing. The butchering demo was educational and the dinner service was great. Luke did a great job coming for all if us. Bravo!

Best butcher shop in west loop! All of the meats/cheeses for sale are mouth watering and not your usual selection you see at the grocery store. The indoor dining area is very bare and informal. However, this is more of your on the run or casual dining spot compared to its main restaurant (The Publican). All of the sandwiches are incredible. I have had about 4 or 5 of of them. I ordered the Return of the Gyro and it was unlike any gyro I have ever had before. It had fresh flavors and was a great size, very satisfying. Overall, a fantastic spot for an incredible lunch.

Amazing butcher shop. People like to complain about over-priced sandwiches but besides a couple sausages and meatballs here or there you cant find a sandwich shop that literally crafts their own meat from butcher to sandwich. Walk down stairs towards the rest room and see all the meats being hung straight from the farm and youll understand how special this place is.

Love the food! Love the coziness of the place. Not fancy so local! Fried chicken sandwich was the best! Other sandwiches are good as well!Servers can treated you a little better though!

Great bakery ...world class

I was in a bind at 11:30 this morning when I needed a catered lunch delivered to my office by 12:30/1pm. I assumed Publican Meats popularity would make it an impossible option. However, I was pleasantly surprised when their catering manager Jessica worked with me and had my order for 15 people processed and approved by the kitchen in under 10 minutes. She estimated delivery time (reasonably) to be around 12:45 or 1, however the food had arrived and been set up in the kitchen by 12:30! Unsurprisingly, the lunch received rave reviews (it is Publican meats after all) but the service was really above and beyond anything I expected. This place is truly a 5 star establishment.

They call it quality meats for good reason. Its hard to tell anyone what to eat because the menu changes so frequently, which is good.Go and get some lunch here one day and make sure to order something with house made sausage on it. Its almost law for me to try sausages from anywhere that makes their own and these are the best.Ive been here a few times and it rarely gets crowded so dont worry about that.

Amazing sandwiches. Butcher shop is A one

Wait staff pleasant, soup was good but the take out market salad mediocre. Ive had better for half the price. Music was very loud, this is not senior friendly. Counter person not friendly, wouldnt suggest it to friends. Wish them well. The bread is good.

We visited because we heard the had some funky beers. Their selection was fine, but not as good as we had hoped. The price was way higher than other places youll go in town for a beer. We ended up leaving without ordering anything.

I went to this restaurant in the afternoon afternoon with my partner and we managed to get there at an off time(2:00 PM). They were still fairly busy and the place smelled right so we decided to stay. Our server was named Brittani. We were seated within minutes of walking into the place-however it was nearly 20 min. before our server finally came over to the table.another server had actually come over to let us know that she would be with this as soon as she could, which was fine. When our server did show up to the table she took our order within 25 min. later we got an incorrect order. I also have several food allergies which I went out of my way to explain to her. When the food arrived we did point out that the order was incorrect and she did fix the order with dispatch.we also decided to order a charcuterie plate to accompany our food, and it arrived at the table in time to be a desert.Being in a service industry I can appreciate working in the hectic situation however our server couldnt have been less motivated to be at the top of her game, much less take our order accurately the first time.The food was positively outstanding, if I were to rate this restaurant on food alone it wouldve gotten five stars however we practically had to beg to have our order taken, when it arrived it was incorrect, and I cannot tell you how many times are iced tea glasses were empty for several minutes.I might be inclined to give this place another try, but I will drive by to make sure that that server is nowhere in sight... Perhaps thats not such a good idea though because during most of our dinner experience she was nowhere in sight.if you decide to go to this place, I highly recommend the pork belly sandwich-hands-down one of the best things Ive ever had in my life (and all of my friends can attest to a food snob I am).Oh and by the way, the food allergies I told him about-turns out it was and just about everything I ordered(Im allergic to spicy things-and the spicy pickle that comes on every sandwich is something I ended up being highly allergic to-the juice that soaked up in the bread of my sandwich) making me sick!

PQM used to have generous sandwiches that where much larger. Just ordered a Turkey sandwich to go for $13.00 plus tip plus taxes $17.50 and I received a tiny sandwich. Childs portion. Not a hungry mans portion. I started to laugh when I got home. They lost me.

Super quaint place to eat in the butcher shop. Great charcuterie plates and drink selection. Really fun atmosphere. Good service. Will return for sure.

This place radiates authenticity and craftsmanship. The staff is knowledge, patient, and friendly. Solid place for artisan meats, cheeses and breads.Side note: Ive searched the city high and low for quality beef jerky and they deliver every time.

The wide variety of sandwiches has enough diversity to cater to many different palettes. The portion sizes are pretty fair, if ever just right. In addition to their great sandwiches, they also have many good meats to purchase for cooking at home. Although on the pricier side, the quality of meat really is that good!

Fantastic service at the butcher shop. Daniel took excellent care of us. Souse was top notch. Brunch across the street was magnificent.

$14 for a small sandwich I could have made at home. The table was dirty and there was a man, obviously an employee but not dressed as such in a black hoodie and sagging pants waiting to refill water glasses. He just hovered four feet from the table the whole meal. Very offputting. Wont be back.

My favorite spot for lunch. Love this place - great food and great service. Whenever I have guests in town, I always bring them here if we need to just grab something quick and tasty!

Love their sandwiches, they don’t have variety of food but their menu is really good! I tried most of it and they are all good but ai love the fried chicken sandwich!

Amazing waffle...hash browns are cooked perfectly.

The Adobo Dog I had was a flavor bomb in itself, and tempted me to purchase some sausages from the deli. Other members of my party sung the praise of the Perks of Being a Cauliflower sandwich, a great veggie option. The meat, bread, and cheese is top notch, and its in a slug little location in the Fulton Market area.

Best sandwiches in the city because of their bread program. Don’t leave without grabbing a loaf for yourself!

Love this little market for fresh eggs! Also their menu is delicious. I love the tofu sandwich, which I dont typically love tofu, but this sandwich is something else - YUM! Its located right next to PUblican and its truly just a gem. Go here.

Supper trendy hipster spot. Fresh quality menu. There is always fresh break as well. This should not be a surprise but this is not a vegan or vegetarian kind of place.

Their house made sausages are incredible. Everything is super fresh. Service is great. When they were out of pie our waitress brought out a couple other desserts free of charge.

Incredibly friendly staff. The staff is very knowledgeable and willing to talk about their process.

Edited my review, because it seems like theyve hired much better staff. Thank goodness I was dragged back- their food is to die for!

Tight space, but a good place for sandwiches and high quality deli meats. Their are plenty of items here for the adventurous. Great place for brunch, and they also have some unique items here for the cooks at home. Nice casual place to go to if youre in the area.

Some of the best and freshest meat you can buy. Dine in for breakfast or lunch and get amazing Publican Quality food without the Publican wait.

Great lamb sandwich for lunch time, the meat is one of the most savory that I have tasted in Chicago. The price is great compared to the quality of the food. There is the option to sit down or take it to go. I usually take it to go but I would probably recommend to have the time stay and enjoy.

My absolute favorite brunch in Chicago. you can really taste their emphasis on good meats and breads!

Sandwiches and food to die for! This West Loop haunt is a smaller off-shoot of Publican, which is right across the street, which is a butcher shop and small cafe. They offer tons of great sweets, as well as great sandwiches. My favorite is the Parm #2, which is a Chicken Parmesan sandwich and their Butchers Breakfast, which is a Weekend Offering. If youre looking for a quick bite and something relatively cheap in the West Loop, look no further than PQM!

Fantastic lunch spot. We ordered a sandwich that wasnt listed on the menu. The bread was fresh and the meat/other ingredients were amazing. Highly recommended stopping in

Great small place. Shared seating. Good meat counter. Great for a quick brunch if you can get a seat.

On two separate occasions I called on a Saturday to see when their porchetta would be ready. Both times I was told noon. Both times I came in at about 12:15 and was told it would be another 20 minutes. A half hour later, both times, I was told another 20 minutes. A third guy actually said sometime this afternoon. Either no one working there has a clue or they simply could care less about giving you a true response. They apparently give you a canned response. Very disappointing.

Sean is the man at Publican...keep up the great work !!!

The food is pretentious yet not get good for the price. It’s either too salty or too sugary.

I went here the other day to make the best cheese/meat plate ever. The service was excellent and the selection was great. They also carry the salsas and sauces from Big Star. Great addition to the restaurant next door!

If i wasnt such a traditional eater, this place would be exceptional. However, i am. There was only one sandwich i considered eating and it was just alright. There were two thin slices of chicken and the sauce over-saturated the bread to the point that it became soggy.

Gotta say, I love most everything about this place. Ive tried most sandwiches and theyve all been delicious; gyro and lamb meatball are two of my favorites. They also have really good loaves of bread and house-made olive oil for sale in the market. It gets crowded and ordering can be a bit awkward, but hey, its part of the charm. Oh, they have $1 Intelligentsia coffee!Need to add an update here...During the summer they did a special burger night every week featuring a collaboration with a local chef. Now that its well into December Im definitely missing these spectacular burgers! Bring it back!

Awesome place for delicate meats! They let you sample as much as youd like. I feel so cultured and high-end when I visited. Definitely great place to frequent if you want to live it up and get goat!

Easily one of my favorite places in Chicago. Incredibly high quality meats (farm raised, dry aged, specialty crafted ...), plus cheeses, well curated condiments, spices, beverages, and some random things like farm eggs and craft ice creams. GET THE RILLETE. If you want anything special, call in advance and they can likely put it aside or have it ordered for you.

I had the biscuit sandwich. It was absolutely delicious! Probably the best Ive ever had. The hostess was also very friendly. I can see why this place is very busy. I will be back.

Amazing falafel sandwich. If youre looking for a scrumptious vegetarian option look no further than The BGS. You will not be disappointed, I promise.
