Madison Bear Garden
A Downtown Chico favorite since 1977, Madison Bear Garden is a sports bar and restaurant serving up hefty burgers, sides, and drinks in a playful and eclectic atmosphere. Come explore its astounding collection of memorabilia, have an ice-cold Sierra Nevada beer or try a legendary, mouth watering Bear Burger!
The world famous "The Bear" is located adjacent to the CSU Chico campus at the corner of 2nd and Salem, in the heart of Downtown Chico. There's always something happening, day or night, so stop by often to keep up to date on the current shenanigans!
During football season, The Bear is open Sundays at 10am
