Summer is here and there’s no better place to enjoy a beautiful Chicago day than Billy Goat Tavern on Navy Pier. Take in a breeze off the lake and a ‘borger off the grill!
It’s a perfect location to watch the Navy Pier fireworks and the Chicago Air & Water Show.
The views from here are fantastic!
Be sure to try one of our signature drinks, like the Horny Goat!
Nothing beats a beer on the pier!
Generations of Chicagoans have been butting in to Billy Goat Tavern after work. Why? Because after a tough day at work, you can’t beat a hot borger, a cold beer, and a great bartender.
Even the best day at work can’t top the best cheezborger in Chicago. So, if you can’t stop in after work, then leave early.
Or as our customers call it: “April 7th.” It’s like New Year’s Day and St. Patrick’s Day rolled into one. As if you needed another reason to visit Billy Goat.
Whether you are heading to the Bulls game or to explore some of the cool exhibits down at Navy Pier, we’ve got you covered! This month, ‘hoop it up at Billy Goat on Madison before the game! ‘Slam dunk a few cheezborgers before you cheer the Bulls on to victory!
Navy Pier also has a full calendar of events during February!
The Chicago Children’s Museum is featuring an exhibit called Heart and Seoul: Growing Up in Korea. Children are able to explore life in Korean culture and see how they live. This is a great source of entertainment during the cold weather and can even be tied to the Winter Olympics!
While you’ll have to brave the elements for this one, it should prove to be well worth it. Beginning February 17th and running through April 15th, Prismatica in Polk Bros Park is set to be stunning!
This immersive installation, comprised of 25 pivoting prisms more than six feet tall, transforms Polk Bros Park in Navy Pier into a giant kaleidoscope. The prisms are made of panels laminated with a dichronic film that transmits and reflects every color in the visible spectrum, varying with the position of the light source and the observer. The prisms are mounted on bases containing projectors. As guests wander among and manipulate the prisms, they will enjoy an infinite interplay of lights and colorful reflections. As the prisms rotate, a variable-intensity soundtrack comprised of bell sounds will play.
Guests are invited to join us for the free public grand opening ceremony of Prismatica on February 16, 2018, at 5:30 p.m. in Polk Bros Park, to count down to the lighting of the installation. Hot chocolate will be available to attendees on a first-come, first-served basis. Following the opening ceremony, the installation will be on display and open to public interaction every day during standard Navy Pier operating hours through April 15.
Don’t forget to stop by Billy Goat on Navy Pier! Join us in our recently remodeled space to warm up, unwind and relax after a fun day exploring our city!
The big game is this weekend! And, no matter who you are rooting for, make Billy Goat a part of your celebration.
If you can’t go to the Goat, bring the Goat to you. Billy Goat Burgers make a great game day meal! Pair your home-cooked cheezborger with our newly released IPA and Pilsner Beers. Find them both exclusively at Jewel-Osco.
Or, if you’re feeling like heading out, we’ve saved you a seat! Join us at Madison or Navy Pier and enjoy a beer while watching the game!
