Billy Goat Tavern delivers a cozy, historic atmosphere right in downtown Chicago. The cheeseburgers stand out, juicy and delicious, paired perfectly with their homemade chips. Don't forget to try their refreshing house-brewed beers! Just beware of its hidden location; it's worth the search!

Billy Goat Tavern is a must-visit gem in downtown Chicago! 🌟 Nestled below street level, the cozy atmosphere is filled with historic memorabilia that gives you a taste of its legacy since 1934.
Their burgers are outstanding, especially when paired with their home-brewed beers – I loved the IPA! 🍺 However, I found the single patty burger to be on the smaller side, so if you have a hearty appetite, consider the double. The chips are a delightful side, but be ready for a bit of a wait during peak hours. Definitely an iconic spot worth a visit!
