Berghoff

17 W. Adams St., Chicago, IL 60603

Restaurants

The Berghoff’s doors opened in 1898 as a men-only saloon serving free corned beef sandwiches with the purchase of a stein of Berghoff Beer. Through the years, the Berghoff expanded into a full-service restaurant rich in German-American cuisine and culture. At today’s Berghoff, diners will find lighter and more contemporary dishes along with treasured old world favorites. The Berghoff Oktoberfest held yearly, is evidence of its deep German roots.
