The best dive bar in the southern lakes area. If you want fancy sit down food and your in a hurry, probably not your place on a sunny summer day. If you want to park your boat or car, hang around, have drinks, bar apps and listen to good music on the juke box, there is no place better. There are some locals that have a great feel for the vibe of music they play. read more

I give the Inn Between an extra star because I can walk home from there. It has a great deck that faces the Lake and is a great spot to watch fireworks from. The food is above average for a bar in the area, I love love love the cheese curds. The staff is nice and helpful, it is not unusual to have kids there during the day. It is also a fun crowd after hours too. read more

Down to earth towny bar in the best sense of that word. Delicious burgers. Reasonably priced drinks. Nice view of the lake. Oh, and a solid juke box. read more

Good drinks and good bar food. Has a great spot on the lake making it a great local place. Have been there numerous times for lunch and late night drinks and will continue to go there on my weekend getaways. read more

Inn Between - Eddie is on the grill making super tasty burgers and the best wings ever... got to try the24k sauce. - American Near Me - Delavan, Wisconsin

Ahhhhh The Inn Between..how many nights have I spent here??? It's a dive bar for sure but it's on the Lake and it's fun. My friends and I go here every time we are in Delavan and always have a good time. The jukebox is awesome, the drinks are super cheap ($21 for all night???), the bartenders (Dean and Jim) are cute - maybe that's why $21? and the crowd is usually fun. Some nights is more your local crowd and other nights it can be more young and hip. Ohhhhh and the cheese balls...so good! read more

Cute place with horrible unattentive service. Prices ridiculous! Walked out after 40 minutes of waiting for burger. Don't waste your time. They will waste your time for you. read more

Two words. Pancake Shot. Repeat. Pancake Shot. Just ask. Is it a swanky place. No. Is it fancy. No. Thank god to both of those being no's. It's a great spot to take a break from the lake and soak it in. Local and true to what it should be. Always a great time here, if not you need to see a doctor. read more

Came on a rainy Saturday afternoon with a group and were, frankly, disgusted. There was a bachelor party going on and in multiple places people had thrown up. Real live puke on the floor and no one seemed to care. Bartenders were pouring more drinks to people who couldn't even stand up. Children were walking around and still no one was cleaning up the puke. We went outside and an hour later when we left it was still filthy inside. We were so disappointed because we brought guests and were mortified that they thought this is our kind of place, like we initially told them while walking over. I hate to say it, but this may have to be the last time we ever go to the Inn Between. :-( read more

I love the inn between, its my favorite bar in delavan. Laid back atmosphere and eddie makes a good steak sandwich. Jim and liz are great bartenders. Always a good night wit a Kentucky bourbon ale(or 5). They even will play bar dice which out of Milwaukee is rare!!! read more

This place had a couple rough patches the last decade; however, now this place is back to what I remember it as a child. I've graduated from kiddie cocktails but it still feels like the Inn Between... Surely the best place on the lake for happy hour. You won't be disappointed. read more

Best bar in town, only bar on the lake with amazing views of Delavan Lake. Great friendly staff and good food. Big dock over looking the water with bags and a tiki bar! read more

Great food! Ribeye sandwich best in walworth county! Nice bartenders, friendly drinking people. If you like to eat and drink off the usual path this is it read more

It's a lake bar. It's fun and you can eat/drink with a nice view. Food is about what you'd expect at a bar.

The Inn Between is warming on me. The men's bathroom and beaver ball carpet hasn't smelled nearly as much during my most recent visits. The bartenders are still hit or miss, but the atmosphere mostly makes up for it. I've had too many good memories at the Inn Between to only give them a three. A four it is! read more

Hands down my favorite lakehouse bar. Great, friendly crowd. Clean. Great spot on the lake. Pretty good food (for bar food). And CHEEEEEEAP. Always a good time. read more

Ohmygosh. This little dive is fantastic. The food was amazing. Andy was our server and she was amazing. Mac n cheese bites yes. Burgers yes. I can't even form sentences, excuse me while I return to my food coma. The beer selection is decent too. read more

Biker Dive Bar all the Way! Lots of seating outside by the water. Hidden at the end of a dead end road. Decent prices on beer. Fun game they invented called Beaver Ball... Its using billiard balls for all you sick minded folks lol. Haven't tried their food but evidently they claim to have the "best burgers in the world." We shall see next time. If the burgers rock then this place gets 5 Stars. read more

You have to go down a sketchy 1 way street to get to the Inn. Not much of an Inn. However I was able to horde the jukebox and play 80's music so that was nice. Ordered a burger from there, wasn't too bad. For what it is it's not a bad place to escape the wife to knock back a few. Just don't crash into any one doing a DIU down the 1 way street. read more

We've gone to the Inn Between many times over the last 14 years we've been on the lake and I have to say I think they've gotten better over the last couple years. We went yesterday to have a late lunch and watch the Packers play the Bears. The burgers were great (I had the cheeseburger and my husband had the bacon cheeseburger) and the fries awesome. And the Pinot Grigio was very decent. Our server was friendly and efficient even though he was also working the bar and the place was hopping because of the game. The day was gorgeous and it's so nice to go outside and sit on the patio with the beauty of the lake as your view. read more

Man... I don't know what happened to this place. Their waitresses are AWFUL. It took forever for them to come check on us for us to place an order, then the food took forever. The cheese curds were so salty we couldn't finish them. We ordered second drinks and never got them. Then when trying to ask for the check the girl behind the bar was checking her phone and pouring herself water to drink. Completely ignoring us. It was such a disappointment. The only thing that was good was the Bloody Mary. Would not recommend coming here, go to Lake Lawn instead. read more

The Inn Between is a staple on Lake Delavan. We end up there by late afternoon most all weekends after boating for great bar food and more importantly a great atmosphere for a few cocktails. The staff is awesome and we will be back next and every summer. Lotts of fun, pet friendly and just a great time. Don't miss out if you are in the area read more

I have tried to eat here several times and probably only been happy once or twice. The service is fantastic, please note! However it doesn't make sense to me what takes so long. The kitchen must be one burner, one fryer, I don't know. It gets very busy, I understand, but when you have to wait for almost 2 hours just for cheese curds and burgers, that seems ridiculous. The food tastes good, nothing amazing. The atmosphere is fun and I think that's why I keep trying. But I'm not sure... read more

Great place for a burger, clam chowder and cheese curds! This place is a great hangout even in the winter. Great bar food and good service. Give this place a try whether you are local or visiting, you shouldn't be disappointed. read more

Oh man do I love the Inn Between! My family vacations in Delavan and we all agree that a visit to the Inn Between is a must whenever we're up here. I've had delicious pizza here which may be frozen but it was SOO good and we were able to add on veggies and extra meat no charge. The mac n cheese bites are to die for. I've heard the burgers are great, which is very believable for me. The sweet potato fries are also great. The Inn Between staff is always friendly and very attentive! Greg is my favorite bar tender and the kitchen staff is always smiling. Very cold beer, fantastic mix drinks, and good variety of drink selection. I've been here during the day for lunch with a view many times and also at night for drinks many times and all the praises I stated were consistent across the board with each visit. read more

Tiny bar with no service, and bad servers in general go there if you want to waste your time, and your money if you can squeeze around the bar, and your actually served. Worst bar ever, and I've been to a lot being around the Chicago land area my whole life I've never been to a worse bar. read more

Nice place tucked away between the piers. Ordered the lemonade crush.. Good drink with freshly squeezed lemons.. Refreshing. Nice outdoor seating.. Right off the lake.. Very relaxing. read more

Nice place to stop in, friendly staff, I've only been once as they seem to close a bit early if they aren't busy.

We were in town for vacation and wanted somewhere unique. This is off the beaten path but so worth the trip. This is a smaller venue but they do have a patio overlooking the lake. The were quick to clean off a table for us and the bartender was very attentive. My husband and I each ordered burgers. They were delicious! I highly recommend them. My sister and I tried their specialty drinks. I had a margarita crush and a key lime crush and she had a creamsicle crush and rum crush. No complaints from us. Definitely a fun outing! read more

The location is fantastic and we have returned here over and over hoping things would improve. The servers are friendly but seem overwhelmed with the slow/tiny kitchen. We have never complained or made a fuss....just keep trying one more time. Manager/owner seen walking around but NOT friendly at all. Not returning. read more

Had a great time at the inn between with my girlfriends. Appetizer combo was delicious and bartender was friendly! We'd come back to the inn between again :-) read more
