Welcome to Butch McGuire’s I was raised the son of a Chicago Irish saloon keeper. I believed that everyone grew up the same w ... ay I did, always surrounded by a very large extended family… a traveling party if you will. Wonderful people were always around during holidays, birthdays, weekends, and vacations. As I grew older I realized I was not living the average life but a very unique one, one I wanted to carry on. I never dreamed of being anything but an Irish Saloon Keeper. I have always felt that it was my job in life to follow in my father’s footsteps and carry on his many wonderful traditions. Although, I think I will leave out the part where I fire my son at least a dozen times for crimes against humanity. All the firings and other traditional Irish expressions of affection did not deter me, and today I am my father’s son and living the legacy that is Butch McGuire’s. Butch taught me a great deal about this business and I often remember his words of advice. He also gave me the confidence to find my own way and that is the most valuable lesson of them all. To those of you have been coming here for the last 50 years I hope you find Butch McGuire’s as inviting as ever, and for those of you just discovering us, welcome to the World Famous Butch McGuire’s, please come in and say hi, I am the big guy by the front door.
