BANTAM Chicken & Seafood

Past Events at BANTAM

BANTAM has hosted a range of special dining experiences in collaboration with local businesses and partners. While these events have passed, they reflect the kind of gatherings we love to bring to the South Bend community.

• Christmas Eve Prime Rib Diner Out — A festive evening featuring prime rib, held on Christmas Eve.
• New Year's Eve Wine Dinner — A celebratory multi-course wine dinner in collaboration with The Sorting Table, Johnson Brothers of Indiana, and The Prized Pig.

Past live music events at 121 Bar included performances by John Buckley (Feb 12, 2023), Alexa Hill (May 20, 2023), and Eddie Baker (Aug 12, 2023).

Gathering around a table sits at the heart of what BANTAM Chicken & Seafood brings to downtown South Bend, where upscale comfort food meets the easy warmth of a neighborhood institution. The events calendar carries that spirit forward through special dining experiences, wine dinners, and collaborations with local partners that transform an ordinary evening into something worth remembering. Such occasions lean into seasonal flavors, thoughtful pairings, and the simple pleasure of sharing a meal with others. Whether the setting is a holiday feast or a themed tasting, each gathering is shaped to feel relaxed yet refined, inviting guests to slow down, savor every course, and enjoy the company of friends and neighbors.
