Butcher and the Bear

A steakhouse built on the discipline of a butcher shop and the warmth of a speakeasy.

Butcher & The Bear is a steakhouse built around the marriage of two traditions: the discipline of a classic butcher shop and the theatrical warmth of a Prohibition-era speakeasy. Located at 2721 North Halsted Street in Lincoln Park, the restaurant focuses on hand-cut steaks, aged proteins, and a bar program built for slow nights out. Every detail, from the dim lighting to the leather booths, is designed to make a Tuesday feel like an occasion.
