Wisconsin Supper Clubs

Supper clubs have been a Wisconsin tradition for more than 100 years, and these beloved establishments continue to thrive here in our state. Wisconsinites and visitors voted in Travel Wisconsin’s Supper Club Showdown to determine the top 10 supper clubs in the state, and the DW Crew heads to four of them to learn the stories behind these dining destinations!
Hungry visitors flock to Buckhorn Supper Club in Milton for its famous prime rib and peanut butter pie, while Lehman’s Supper Club in Rice Lake prides itself on serving classic Wisconsin comfort foods and a few dishes with a twist! A cozy dining room overlooking Half Moon Lake awaits at Pinewood Supper Club in Mosinee, and enjoying an Old Fashioned on the deck is an absolute must at Ishnala Supper Club in Lake Delton - voted the #1 supper club in Wisconsin. With delicious meals, friendly service, and Old Fashioneds (sweet or sour!), there's nothing quite like the Wisconsin supper club experience!

    In 2010 I was looking at houses in Rice Lake with retirement in mind. I ate a Lehman’s during my stay in Rice Lake. Good food! I wanted to retire there since I grew up in Chippewa Falls (just south of Rice Lake) but staying in Wyoming saves me 8K a year in taxes (that buys a nice vacation each year).

    My all time favorites are The Maple Tree in Stoughton and Blink Bonnie's in Minocqua. I could eat in either place every night of the week and feel like I'm in heaven. A person could spend a lifetime exploring supper clubs in Wisconsin and still not hit them all.

    I sued to go up north and eat at supper clubs after fishing all day. Good times. Minocqua, Wild Rice Lake, Paul Bunyans.

    "Wisconsin Supper Clubs" is a great coffee table book. It is a coversantion starter in particular if your guests have been to at least one. Supper clubs are an experience you remember. I have been to several over my lifetime. I bought two, one for myself and one for my mother.

    Sullivan's in Trempelau near La Crosse and Winona, Minnesota is awesome! Their salad bar is a meal in its self. Great fish/shrimp but I recommend the bbq ribs there so good. The restaurant is hidden in a wooded area and also when you look out the window from your table you see the Missippi River and you can see the Minnesota side.

    Lehman's is great and has been for a long time. I don't know if it counts as a supper club since it incorporated some years ago, but Bona Casa in Cumberland is the best Italian food I have eaten outside of Florence, Naples and Brooklyn.

    I'm a South Carolinian, born and raised, hope to die- but I JUST learned about supper clubs and I am enamored with the concept. I think the south's equivalent to a supper club might be like a fish fry house. I spent a month in Wisconsin in about 2008, Chippewa Falls, nobody ever mentioned supper clubs. Wish I could have gone to one!

    ​@@ckuehncnwhsyt I've been to their fishfry. Have you had the Prime Rib? Prime Rib is my favorite, but so far around here it's that packaged single serving kind that I don't even consider Prime Rib. It must be cut off the bone. I moved to this area of WI from the north shore of Chicago 3 years ago & I'm so bummed at the quality of food I've had at every restaurant. I'm extra bummed nobody makes a decent pizza here in cheese land. I'm planning on buying my own Prime Rib & cooking it at home for my birthday dinner this year.

    I grew up loving supper clubs. Now I have to travel some distance to find a great supper club in Wisconsin. The food and service are always good, but what’s missing is diversity. I wish that the races and cultures were integrated in Wisconsin. We all appreciate great food. Why can’t we also appreciate our uniqueness as we share a meal across the table from each other in our homes, recreational areas, restaurants, and schools all over Wisconsin? Supper Clubs ROCK!
