Michigan Avenue: Shop ‘til you Drop…literally

What a great time to shop along the Magnificent Mile! Stores are filled with post-holiday deals and of end-of-season sales. And while the Christmas crowds have disappeared, the wintery cityscapes are at their very best.

After shopping along Michigan Avenue, be sure to drop down below…under Michigan Avenue, that is! Located at the lower level of Michigan Avenue, stop by the Original Billy Goat Tavern for a World Famous Cheeseburger, Chips, and Coke!

The Goat has been a favorite campaign stop for politicians for decades. If the Trump campaign decides to host an event with us, we promise to keep our goat away. They’ll eat anything.
