“From our first location in Chicago back in 1990 to over 60 locations today, we’ve always been about creating a welcoming, neighborhood vibe where guests feel at home,” said Brian Wright, CEO of Bar Louie. “This milestone isn’t just about where we’ve been, but where we’re headed. We’re staying true to our roots while embracing new ways to connect with our guests.”
Bar Louie began in 1990 as a corner bar in Chicago’s River North neighborhood, offering signature martinis and handcrafted cocktails, approachable yet elevated food, and a welcoming atmosphere. Rooted in individuality and inclusivity, Bar Louie quickly became a go-to spot for creating unforgettable moments, from late-night celebrations to casual lunches.
“As we look back at 35 years, we’re proud of our journey.” Wright adds. “We’ve grown from a small Chicago bar to a nationwide favorite, but we’re still about that same spirit of authenticity and community. That’s what’s always made Bar Louie special.”
In addition to its anniversary celebrations, Bar Louie continues to innovate. In 2024, the brand refreshed its restaurant designs, partnered with OpenTable for seamless reservations, enhanced its Bar Louie Rewards app, and expanded delivery options — all while preserving its signature neighborhood atmosphere.
