Summary

Features: Buddy Guy's Legends is a lively bar located behind the Hilton Chicago Hotel and close to The Essex Inn, The Blackstone, Travelodge, and The Best Western Grant Park.  This small, intimate venue features live blues music, Cajun soul food, and a sizable display of blues memorabilia.

Why We Go: Buddy Guy's Legends envelops patrons with its laidback and cozy vibe.  The comforting southern cuisine, live blues seven nights a week, and fascinating archive of blues memorabilia makes this a top Chicago blues bar.

  • Music: Buddy Guy's Legends boasts a consistently impressive line-up of blues artists, featuring occasional big names, as well as newer acts and local talent.  Look no further than this establishment for the best live blues music in Chicago.
  • Food: Chow down on tasty and authentic southern food.  The Chicken & Sausage Jambalaya, a traditional Louisiana recipe served with rice and buttermilk cornbread, was named Top Ten at Taste of Chicago.
  • Location: This popular Chicago bar is within walking distance of nearby attractions Grant Park and Millenium Park's Cloud Gate Sculpture.  After a lunch of Creole comfort food and live blues music, check out the sights of the city.

Inside Knowledge: While guests must be over 21 after 8pm, Buddy Guy's Legends has free all-ages performances Monday-Friday from 12-2pm, Fridays 5:30-8pm, Saturdays 6-8pm, and Sundays 5-7pm.  The Sunday all-ages show is a Jazz set from Guy King and His Organ Trio.

Do's and Don'ts:

  • Do Arrive Early: Legends Club Chicago has an open first-come, first-serve seating policy.  Get to Legends before 6pm on weeknights, and before 5:30pm on weekends.
  • Do Purchase Merchandise: When Buddy Guy is there, he'll sit by the front door and autograph items- but only if they were purchased from Legends.  Getting to meet and greet Buddy is worth it.
  • Don't Miss Out On Lunch During The Week: Can't make it at night?  Never fear!  Free all-ages acoustic lunchtime performances occur from 12-2pm Monday through Friday.  Enjoy some catfish tenders and fried oysters with your lunchtime live entertainment.
  • Don't Record Audio or Video: Photography is allowed, but audio and video recording is prohibited.
