About Billy Goat Tavern (Navy Pier)

Billy Goat Tavern at Navy Pier offers delicious food at reasonable prices. Known for their $6 burgers, the menu also includes other options like the classic cheeseburger and Italian beef with sweet & hot peppers. The service may lack attention at times, but the quick preparation makes up for it. The location is a bit hidden within Navy Pier but worth the search, especially during the holiday season. The atmosphere is casual and humble, with cheap drinks and friendly service, including fantastic bartenders like Vanessa. The house-brewed Billy Goat draft beer is a must-try at $6. The double cheeseburger is basic yet tasty, with thin crispy beef patties in warm soft buns, and their fries are so good. Featured on travel shows, this spot is a Chicago-esque dive bar experience that won't disappoint. It’s kid-friendly and full of flavor, with prices better than other nearby bars. A great meal for locals and visitors alike.

The cafe is a good breakfast spot in the pier, offering reasonable prices. The grilled Salami is highly recommended—it’s so good. It’s available in sandwich form or the standard 'bacon and eggs' style. Two people can enjoy a meal for about $27 with drinks before tax and tip. While the food received mixed reviews, the beer was good, especially the Billy Goat Pilsner and IPA. Service was very friendly and pleasant, and prices are likely the best on Navy Pier. Some felt that if they stayed longer and drank enough, the food might improve. The place is casual, with a cafeteria-style line, and the atmosphere is simple. The burger was tasty, and the sandwich was liked by others, but some noted the tables were a bit sticky and needed cleaning. Overall, the prices reflect Chicago’s location on the pier, making it a decent spot for a quick bite.
