The Bulls are back! ‘hoop it up at Billy Goat before the game!
Our Madison Ave. location is the original Bulls bar. We’re so close to the United Center that we even offer free shuttles to Bulls’ games–your feet.

Cheezborger. Cheezborger. Cheezborger.
The stories that have made Billy Goat Tavern world-famous are the stuff of legend. Our good friend Rick Kogan has compiled the most complete history of Billy Goat Tavern in his book – A Chicago Tavern a Goat, a Curse, and the American Dream. It’s packed with tales that include:
- The antics of “Chicago’s Greatest Inn Keeper” – William Sianis
- The real story of The Billy Goat Curse
- Billy’s Nephew Sam Sianis
- The SNL skit that immortalized Sam and his tavern
- Mike Royko and the journalists who are regulars

The puck drops here for the 2013 – 2014 season. Watch the games at the original Blackhawks Bar. We’ve been serving Blackhawks fans on Madison since 1934!
We hope this season ends with another parade!

Pre-game at Billy Goat on Madison! Too bad the Red Wings won’t be in our division.

Today is National Cheeseburger Day! And, there’s only one place to celebrate. Nobody knows cheezborgers better than Billy Goat!
Ain’t nothing better than a delicious Double Cheezborger straight from a sizzling grill.
So, why are cheezborgers so good?
Cheezborgers are formed thin so they can be quickly seared on our flat top grill – sealing a pop of mouthwatering, juicy flavor in each patty.

Julia Child once said that it was these toasted bun that made our cheezborgers the best!

We think it’s about time that Disney made a movie with a goat as the main character. We know firsthand that goats are lovable characters (too bad the Cubs think they stink). In fact, out goat has already made it’s movie debut: https://www.billygoattavern.com/blog/2013/05/21/an-indie-movie-star/
