Chrome support has a list of shortcuts for the Mac version. You will find the ⌘-L shortcut will perform what you are trying to do.
For Windows Chrome, you can also use Ctrl-L and F6 to highlight the address bar.

1how to update chrome in Mac to be Ctrl+L – mwafi – 2015-01-31T12:41:26.180
Command-L will lock MacBooks, so this does not work. – Loolooii – 2015-02-02T12:45:50.920
⌘-L works great on my MacBook Pro 2015. – krivar – 2015-09-07T08:17:46.223

1It doesn't work on my Mac, perhaps they removed it? – jasonszhao – 2015-12-29T01:25:56.267
@jasonszhao it works on mine – mgol – 2016-10-26T15:49:05.407
@m_gol I figured out why it doesn't work. Slate titling window manager was occupying that shortcut. – jasonszhao – 2016-10-28T02:43:30.160
⌘-L works, but why F6 is not? – Vladimir Vukanac – 2017-09-07T20:16:15.560
@VladimirVukanac in my case, I need to press F6 two times. First press focuses on the first tab. – Roman Luštrik – 2019-04-21T13:14:01.153
thank you very much! and the list is just what i wanted! – js_ – 2011-07-13T16:16:45.547

The keyboard shortcut ⌘L focuses the address bar / search bar / omnibox.
Note that the menu text for this command is:
File > Open Location...
This menu text can be used in System Preferences to bind a different keyboard shortcut.
