You have to experience Blues @Legends . Buddy tours all year - You can catch him w surprise guests in JAN. I enjoyed Jeff Beck playing w Buddy. This is a MUST experience. Get a seat near the stage!
Although Central park north is smelling bad with dog pees, southern part of this park is amazing surrounded with all ranges of green and you will be able to watch skycrapers, biking , skiing , running
The $10 entry for our 9pm show felt like a steal. We saw the Mike Wheeler Band, who were so great - I’d definitely recommend seeing them. Judging by the Cosmo I had, the cocktails are very strong!
Waiting for Buddy Guy to take the stage on opening night of his annual run of January shows at Legends. A luxury for any blues lover, but a MUST for any Chicago Blues lover.
Energetic live bands , great southern food , a wonderful way to experience the blues in Chicago
Low carb tip: there's a lot of fried food to avoid, but the chicken wings are fantastic! The Tabasco flavor had a great kick, plenty of sauce. Of course you're there for the music !
Awesome place! You can tell it is a real and traditional blues place. Love the athmosphere there. The guys from the staff made me feel like home. If you are in Chicago, don't miss this place.

A must-visit in Chicago. Real Blues legend . Live Blues music . Food is also good.
One of the best blues bars in Chicago! Buddy Guy does a concert series in January, but be prepared to get to the bar early for seats. I was surprise by the $3 312 draft special on a Friday night!
This place is one of Chicago's finest establishments. Not only will you enjoy wonderful food, you will see some legendary blues artists !
I like his Skin Deep. Great and calm song. I want to buy tickets to his new concert tour on his site - http://buddyguytourdates.com. Very convenient.
My husband and I had never been to a blues bar . We stopped in for one last drink and ended up dancing until they closed! The staff was so welcoming!
Local and international legends play here, and Buddy Guy himself graces the stage of his authentic blues club, where memorabilia like B.B. King and John Lee Hooker’s guitars complete the atmosphere. Read more
Arrive early for a good sit. You have to try the Buddy Brew beer , a good wheat beer from town !
It's great seeing a blues legend and all that, but the place is super touristy and staff is super rude. No need to go back.
Cool place. Friendly staff and good music . Definitely worth visiting if you're in Chicago.
Blues music gumbo grilled chicken and pasta the people the atmosphere but most of all the owner Mister Buddy Guy
Well worth the wait to see Buddy. He was an incredible entertainer, kept the place rocking all night long.

Great Blues Music , Buddy Guy shows up, food are his personal recipes, this is heaven!
Great sound and not a bad seat In the house. Good drinking prices
Cannot recommend the baby back ribs enough. Best I've had in the south loop.
Do you have the blues ? Then head to this South Loop, Chicago institution for a night fun and music .
Staff thinks they're doing customers a favor. I thought we were what made a joint worth opening. Is Buddy content to pay for his clubhouse w/personal wealth, just to be a big shot? Seems that way.
Come for the music stay for the good company, friendly staff and good food!
Such a good place... $10 is a cover, but once you get in you get discount flyers for the next time ($5)Cheap pitchers , good people, great music ... My fav place to go out in Chicago Read more
This place is extraordinary!!! I highly suggest the afternoon acoustic sets! $6 Goose Island pitchers on Fridays!!!!
Buddy Guy had an impromptu appearance on stage and signed autographs and took pictures afterwards. Very cool to see the legend.
A good place to hear blues and enjoy yourself!
Food, atmosphere, service, music ... you just can't go wrong
Get there early in order to sit by the performing stage otherwise, stand or go upstairs and watch from tv screens :)
One of Chicago's best blues joints. Great Music . Great atmosphere.
Pretty good blues right downtown. If you want a real blues night, go to Kingston mines though. I'm sure buddy guys has it's good and bad nights. But it's a touristy bar .
A Classic if you visit Chicago!
Nice place to drink some beer and listen to good music ! Live blues at lunch and dinner .
Great live music ! Blues and brews!!
Mr. Guy’s personal reputation as the crowned king of Chicago’s electric blues scene and his 50+ years in the music business have made Buddy truly a legend himself.
I had the best time! The best blues place in Chicago
Vegetarian Gumbo was surprisingly really tasty! I was impressed.
So nice!!! Prices are ok. Music is good. Maybe Buddy, the guy, plays !!

Old club feel but a great vibe. Perfect for a show and a few cocktails. - Sean Maccarone-Reed
I've been to some amazing concerts here. It's nice that there's a ton of seating on the balcony, though it means the fairly small floor can be horribly over-packed. Practically next to the L. - Dana Jensen
It's a great venue. Amazing the theatre inside, just fall in love with this place - maite a
The wings are great but messy. Reasonable prices. Fatimah gave awesome and super friendly service even though it was late night. - Richard
Be sure to try the Ditka Spicy Hotdog. It's nearly as good as the '85 Bears. - Jason Konen
