The Chicago Department of Aviation (CDA) held a ribbon-cutting to celebrate the opening of Butcher & the Burger in O’Hare International Airport’s Terminal 5. “I’m proud to welcome another Chicago institution to our world-class concessions program in O’Hare’s modernized Terminal 5,” CDA Commissioner Jamie L. Rhee said. “By bringing in diverse local businesses to the airports, we are investing in Chicago’s communities while offering travelers from all over the world a taste of what our city has to offer.” Butcher & the Burger’s original Lincoln Park location – part old-fashioned butcher shop and part fast-casual burger joint – has been a Chicago favorite since 2011. “For more than a decade, our BYO burger spot at Armitage and Kenmore has been a go-to for Chicagoans craving comfort food staples,” said Joseph Arnold, managing partner of Butcher & The Burger. “Now, we’re thrilled to bring our signature flavors to one of the world’s busiest airports, offering travelers a true taste of the Windy City.” Butcher & the Burger’s airport location has some of its most popular items for breakfast, lunch and dinner on the menu in the newly-expanded Terminal 5. Diners can customize their prime beef, turkey or vegan lentil burgers with a wide array of fresh toppings, or enjoy grilled chicken sandwiches, salads and more. The restaurant also offers a selection of hand-crafted cocktails, spirits, wine and beer. Open daily from 5:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m., Butcher & the Burger is located near Gate M26 in Terminal 5.
