Brunch on Division Street: Saturday and Sunday at Butch McGuire's

Brunch on Division Street: Saturday and Sunday at Butch McGuire's

Weekends at Butch's start with brunch, and it's built the same way the rest of our menu is: simple, real ingredients, no unnecessary fuss.

The Steak Skillet is a weekend staple — two eggs cooked your way with peppers, onions, tomatoes, and cheddar, $16. If you're after something sweeter, the French Toast Combo comes sprinkled with powdered sugar, topped with strawberries, whipped cream, and maple syrup, and paired with two eggs and your choice of ham, applewood smoked bacon, or sausage, also $16.

It's the same room that turns into one of Chicago's most iconic bars by night, so Saturday and Sunday brunch at Butch's has a different energy than your standard neighborhood brunch spot — still Division Street, still Gold Coast, just with coffee instead of green beer.

Come by on the weekend, grab a table, and see why Butch McGuire's isn't just a nighttime institution.
