Love the Double Bubble drinks special and the Stuffed Tenderloin, seafood and friendly staff! Great prices and a wonderful sunset view over Lake Shawano. We'll be back for more! More

I think the salad bar is the best part of this place. Drinks are mediocre - muddling old fashions from scratch would be preferred. Dinner options are the same as every other supper club which gets boring. More

One of our favorite restaurants around Shawano Lake. Great entrees, (chicken is great!), excellent salad and soup bar (even hot bacon dressing and 2 soups), great atmosphere and view of the lake from the west facing windows (nice sunsets). Plenty of seafood and steak choices served by wonderful staff. Just go - you can't miss. My wife and I and... More

My husband and I stopped in on our way up north this past October, the food was excellent and the waitstaff was very friendly, but what made our visit most enjoyable was the fun loving and hystarical bartender. WHAT PERSONALITY!!! We ended up going back to the bar after dinner. If you ever stop in, make sure you ask for... More

Excellent food...especially the family style chicken and the fish. Salad bar is wonderful and plentiful and includes two soup choices. The waitresses are very friendly and accomodating. Nice lakeside ambience and many choices on the menu. More

I've visited this Cecil, Wisconsin supper club (overlooking Shawano Lake) numerous times; it never disappoints. And, it does it all well: drinks, service, salad bar, and a variety of good food. The quintessential Old Fashioned cocktail is well made; the after-dinner ice cream drinks a dream. The salad bar, which includes soups, is plentiful, varied and fresh. The Friday night... More

I had the fortune of dining at the Washington Inn this weekend past. The Washington Inn is a quaint supper club that overlooks Shawno Lake. I enjoyed the Stuffed Tenderloin and had a bit of a mouth- gasm at the juiciest piece of beef I've had in a long time. The soup and salad bar was also plentiful and very... More

Bartenders are lazy. They dont bother to ask if you want menues or drinks. When you finally get served good luck getting another. The place was dirty. We needed to clean are own area to sit down (it was not busy). The bartender waled by our empty glasses and proceded to count her tips. We didnt even bother to stay... More
