Woodgrain Neapolitan Pizzeria will join Chicago's Plate on the main concourse at the United Center


BLACKHAWKS, BULLS, LEVY RESTAURANTS AND UNITED CENTER UNVEIL "CHICAGO POURS" FOR 2016-17 SEASON

CHICAGO POURS BRINGS TOGETHER TOP BARS AND MIXOLOGISTS FROM AROUND THE CITY, MAKING THE UNITED CENTER YOUR NEW FAVORITE BEVERAGE DESTINATION

CHICAGO, October 6, 2016 – The United Center, Chicago Blackhawks, Chicago Bulls and hospitality partner Levy Restaurants today unveiled details of Chicago Pours, a bar experience bringing together signature drinks and expertise from 15 of Chicago’s favorite bars that will be featured throughout the season. The concept, which includes renovated lounges on the United Center’s Lexus Club Level, builds upon last year’s Chicago’s Plate program, which introduced beloved restaurants from around the city into the arena.

Beginning with the start of the Bulls’ and Blackhawks’ regular seasons, the Chicago Pours experience will present a dynamic menu of rotating cocktails at each game and event. The menu centers on hand-crafted cocktails using the freshest ingredients from a who’s who of Chicago’s critically-acclaimed bars and mixologists. Chicago Pours will also feature pop-up mixologist appearances and demos, curated by Breakthru Beverage and Levy Restaurants. Chicago Pours partners include:

Bar DeVille
The Drifter
Drumbar
The Duck Inn
Green River
Longman & Eagle
Lost Lake
Lottie's
MONEYGUN Bar
The Pony
Scofflaw
The Sixth
Spilt Milk
Sportsman’s Club
The Whistler
Chicago Pours will join the United Center’s existing beverage experts and unique in-venue bars to form the premier local beverage program at an entertainment venue. The United Center team grew last year with the addition Big Star margaritas, exclusive and rare brews from Goose Island, and a curated beer program from Breakthru Beverage Group’s Master Cicerone David Kahle. The arena also sports one-of-a-kind vantage points at the 300-level overlook bars, Goose Island Pub and Crown Royal Whisky Bar.

The success of Chicago’s Plate last season provided the blueprint for bringing Chicago’s favorite food and beverages into the United Center, taking a local food hall approach to foster a deeper connection between fans and the venue.

Chicago’s Plate will also expand this year, as part of the United Center’s ongoing transformation. At new concession stands in the 300 level, fans can look forward to favorites from Chicago’s Dish and Legacy Burger, both introduced last year on the main concourse. Chicago icon Gibson’s Bar & Steakhouse and made-to-order pizza stop Woodgrain Neapolitan Pizzeria will join Chicago’s Plate on the main concourse, featuring Gibson’s Angus sliders, shoestring potatoes and Rush St. Manhattans, and Woodgrain’s hand-tossed, oven-fired pizzas.

The United Center is the largest arena in North America and has hosted more than 50 million guests since its opening in 1994. Each year, the arena hosts over 200 events.
