Experience Through Their Eyes

Shout out to staff and owner!! Stopped Christmas Eve morning passing through town, so happy to have found a breakfast place open. Breakfast buffet was the only option but was perfect and very good! Even served Nueske's bacon! Then one of the ladies came to our table to ask how everything is... then she informed us that it breakfast is no charge- she said every year the owner has the breakfast buffet on Christmas Eve free as their customer appreciation! Such a great thing to do! Thank you to the staff who worked and thank you to the owner! God Bless you all and Merry Christmas!

5/13/22Prime is awsome. Birthday dinner! Update 8/18/23. Again, after a 12 hour trip to get there for my moms birthday i said lets go back since on my day it was so good. Well, this time didn't yeild the same results. We asked about the NY strip, and my son went with it. It showed up as a fillet. Moms steak'um and fries, she said waa better than it looked. My 16 oz looked perfect, a medium and change was disappointing, and i had to add salt and lots of it to be honest. I would have put steak sauce on it next, beans were good, mac was good, pretzal was good. As a cook and restaurant owner i know things happen. But dont leave people with no drinks, dont let somebody not vested in table do order while a waitress gets smaller tip. And at 150 bucks on a Friday night, i went away disgusted and feeling like the argumentative young lady, only one drink, wrong food, lack of seasoning, nope i worked to hard and drove to far to be this unhappy about a special day. Probably wont happen again. To bad the first time was so good.

Simple supper club in Crandon, WI. Let's start with the positives. Had a Friday Fish Fry, love my fish fries. Perch was exceptional. 6 large pieces, so more than I needed, AUCE not required. Slight sweetness to the breading, breading held on to the fish, couldn't recommend more. Fries were thin cut, fresh, and tasty. Pretty standard but good. Had other options, I've potato pancakes but I was happy. Big winner? I chose the soup, clam chowder, and was the best I've had in WI. A lot of clams, potato's, and a flavorful, creamy sauce. Meal was really, really good. Service, exceptional as well. The restaurant is a little dated but it's north central WI, so who cares. I recommend.

This is the best little "Gem" for breakfast or dinner in Crandon by far!. We celebrated 2 birthdays last night, one for my wife, and one for my good friend who is a chef. Our food was so good we went back for breakfast the next morning! Our friend, a chef from green bay, remarked " this is the best pork chop I ever had". Service was friendly, fast, and our server repeated back all items ordered to ensure it was correct. THANK YOU CAROLYN, STEVE AND TRISH, for making our evening so wonderful! We will be making Jamisons 1930 a regular stop on our trips to the northwoods! PS. Order Jamison orange old fashioned, muddled perfectly!

Today 8 of us visited the Crandon Hotel for the Breakfast Buffet. My Bloody Mary was excellent. The Bartender & all the staff were very friendly. The buffet was very good. The price for seniors was under $10.00.

Great waitress, flavorful food- had cast iron chicken which was super moist and the honey-butter walleye which was amazing. We knew we were in Wisconsin with the fresh cheese curds! Thank you!
