More than adequate coat room, rest rooms, and space for catering. I think this might be the best choice in the area for a fancy event. I don't know enough about the Women's Club (and I do think there's more than one woman in the club but I didn't start this thread) to review them but I've heard they do some really worthwhile charity work like supporting local public education.

Food was served hot, portions were ample. We had croque madame, filet sliders as the mains. Croque…read moremadame had fresh ham, tomato bechamel and ground mustard and a perfectly fried egg on sourdough. I enjoyed the sandwich though my tastes were ready for a lightly browned cheese instead of a lava like cheese sauce though the flavor was terrific. The beef sliders were well seasoned and flavorful. 3 sliders ( not overly inventive )were a perfect savory meal. Do not miss the creamed corn! The bacon added texture and a nice hint of salt. The goat cheese flat bread was maybe the best offering for the evening..the goat cheese was melted wonderfully and the balsamic vinegar infused complexity all contained on the flat bread. The brownie with ice cream was a nice sweet ending to a great farm to table experience. Eli, our server knew the perfect inflection points to check in without becoming a helicopter server! Overall, this place, the service and cook team merited our sincere appreciation! Well done!

We had a group of eight that made reservations and dined here at noon. They were very accommodating…read moreand were willing to do separate checks. I had Farmer Johnny's Pasta, which was described as "Rosemary lemon butter sauce, asparagus, cherry tomatoes, broccoli, spinach, mushrooms, cheese blend." I would say the taste was good, but I think it would have been better with a few more vegetables among the pasta. Two had the pot pie, which really did look good, and is what I will try next time. Another had roasted red bell pepper, which I have also had in the past. It looked as good as ever. I like the fact that a lot of produce is local. The restaurant was comfortable. The service was accommodating. We all enjoyed our food!

Food is good but service is the absolute worst. We were the only people eating there and they…read moredidn't offer us drinks, we had to ask for stuff that was supposed to come with the food, and never once got a refill. The waitress/bar tender was more focused on sitting on her phone and she sure enough had her glass full. Although the food is really good but being treated like we are a bother when we are the only one in the restaurant portion is BS. Will never come back and will make sure people know not to come either Also while sitting next to the window, they have a bunch of dead flies on the inside. Very appetizing to look at.

Back to Whirlyball this time for a private event I worked with their team to organize the event and…read morethey did a good job putting the program together we started downstairs with renting a court and a few bowling lanes. We also added some large games to our space as well. We then made it upstairs for our dinner program and the buffet was amazing! Delicious and tenor serving they have a very nice event space upstairs. The staff were very nice. Two notes would just be that they had our program run on a court back to back with another group so it was ackward since we needed all those large games set up, had preset beverages and appetizers. Plus a full check in table. The other court was empty so I'm not certain why we weren't just in the other space. Then they also only had the front bar open in the first hour versus the one right at the courts and bowling where we were and other guests enjoying their time. In the case of our group it also left us separated into two since as they waited for drinks then they just became comfortable in the front bar talking. They did open the upstairs bar once we moved up there. I would book an event here again I would just make sure to clearly note some of those details and/or even book the court an extra hour to ensure no crossover even though I was able to set up 15 minutes before our event start. Everyone had a really fun time and for many it was their first time experiencing it.

The arrangement was delivered right on time Monday, less than one business day later, and arrived in perfect condition despite Milwaukee's chaotic February weather. The flowers themselves were gorgeous--intentional, comforting, and clearly made with heart. I couldn't be there in person, but this made me feel like I could still offer some solace in the moment. It's clear this small business understands how meaningful these gestures are and treats them with real integrity. Needless to say, I will definitely order from Welke's again!

We had a two day program with 140 attendees. The attendees enjoyed the space as well we previously had been at the same venue for a few years and we have a lot of repeat attendees and many had great things to say on the location change. The food was good. They also worked with us to make the lunch buffet a little more vegetarian friendly (nothing new for catering menus not having crazy amounts of vegetarian options). Our crowd has a stronger vegetarian dietary group and then many also just prefer the vegetarian option over meat since it's healthier usually so it was great to be able to adjust the menu as needed. The connection to the hotel was great as many of our vendors and all our guest speakers stayed in the hotel. We will be looking to return for this program.

The barn was nice and clean. They have beautiful bathrooms. The wedding ceremony was at 500pm in front of the oldest hickory tree in the county. They set up 200 chairs with an aisle down the middle for the wedding party to enter. The property has a nice area to take pictures and enjoy and outdoor pre-reception. Our reception was inside the barn we ate comfortably and heard bride and groom stories, prayer, a charge from the father of the bride. Dinner was catered by Thunder Bay Grill. The wedding party DJ played nice taped music during the dinner. Dessert was a cheesecake. At the end of the reception we launched balloons with lights in them sending off in the air on a new adventure, just like the bride and groom. A beautiful night. I highly recommend this facility.

The new pro, Timon Corwin, is a nationally recognized leader in youth tennis development and has been fabulous for the club. The rumors the previous reviewer mentioned are the result of some members who didn't agree with the choices made by club leadership (all members). While I may agree that some members don't agree with all the decisions, this is just grousing and doesn't change the quality of the tennis, teaching, or facilities. To many, this is the the top tennis facility in the Southeastern WI region with many of the top junior players present. Internal politics are present in every organization, so don't just listen to those who complain.

The space itself is relaxing and would be a great spot to hang out, but the wine didn't quite match the atmosphere. The options I tried were fine, just not memorable for the price point. The food choices were also pretty limited, and since you can't bring your own snacks, it felt a little restricting. Nothing was terrible, but nothing really stood out either. It's a nice place to sit and enjoy the view for a bit, though I'm not sure I'd go out of my way to come back.
