Good news, ‘Caddyshack’ lovers: Actor Bill Murray and his brothers recently opened a restaurant that’s themed after the 1980 hit film.
The Murray brothers -- Bill, Joel, Johnny, Ed, Andy and Brian -- officially opened the restaurant on Tuesday, which is located in the Crowne Plaza Hotel on River Road in Rosemont, according to WGN.
The restaurant's motto? “Eat, Drink and be Murray.”
"The fact that it is called Caddyshack means it has something to do with golf," the actor said at a press conference at the restaurant's unveiling, according to the Chicago Tribune. “That feeling of casual fun, I think is what it is."
The restaurant's walls are covered in family pictures and posters from some of Murray's other movies, such as "Groundhog Day."
Crispy potato golf balls, a double bogey cheeseburger and “Caddyshakes," among other items, are featured on the menu, WGN reported.
This isn’t the first 'Caddyshack'-themed restaurant. The original, located in St. Augustine, Fla., opened over a decade ago, according to WGN.

Near Chicago....?
Avoiding city taxation...?
Probably so. Rosemont is fairly close to O’Hare airport, I believe.
Baby Ruth bars at the counter.
Nope still in Cook County.
“So they’ve got that going for them.......which is nice.”
I like Bill. If Chevy was involved, I’d avoid the place. We’ll have to try it out next time we’re up there visiting the grandkids.
There is one near the PGA Hall of Fame in St. Augustine, FL.
“Avoiding city taxation...?”
It’s still Cook County so they’re not avoiding anything except a lack of parking spaces.

I prefer 5th Avenue.
There was a documentary on A&E recently.
Not an easy movie to make.
Not sure this is going to work. Caddy Shack was a long time ago. And how many times are old folks like me going to visit it after the novelty wears off?
Don’t get me wrong, if I lived nearby (thank God I do not!) I would go at least once.
Best of luck to them!
I want a hamburger... no, a cheeseburger. I want a hot dog. I want a milkshake...
You will have gopher and like it.
Medium rare with onions and a side of flower petals.

Or Harold’s Cabin, at corner of President and Congress (where noting ever happens) and the Copper and Ashley come together to form the Atlanatic Ocean.
If I go there, I’ll get a hamburger, no, a cheeseburger. I’ll get a hot dog. I’ll get a milkshake . . . . .
Shouldn’t they be floating in the toilet bowls?
I was hoping for a groundhog day themed restaurant.
