Chicagoland Beef Tapestries
Description: The fictional Original Beef of Chicagoland serves as the primary setting of The Bear. It's a sandwich shop run by the Berzattos after the family patriarch started the place several years before the show’s events. The Italian beef joint is located in the River North neighborhood of Chicago and is popular among the blue-collar crowd on the city’s Near North Side, so it's safe to say that the restaurant has a rich cultural heritage in the city.
Description: A white graphic on a black background displays text and a sandwich. The text reads 'THE' in a starburst shape, followed by 'Original' in a large cursive font. To the right of 'Original' are the words 'BEEF' in a block font. Below these is a drawing of a sandwich. Further down, the text 'of' is written, and below that 'CHICAGOLAND' in large block letters. At the bottom, a line separates 'SINCE 1963'.
