Windfall Inn
4.4 / 5 (53 reviews)

Description

Nestled in Wabeno, this longtime neighborhood spot is praised for hearty German specialties—spätzle, German potato salad, homemade soups—plus a generous salad bar, gluten-free walleye and classic cocktails. Regulars enjoy a cozy, lively bar atmosphere and weekend specials, though recent shifts to a sandwiches-only menu, reports of long waits and staff tension have raised concerns. Still, many consider it a dependable place for comfort food and drinks.

My family and I love eating dinner here every time we’re up north. Dave makes an excellent Peanut Butter and Jelly Old Fashioned and Shelley’s meals are always amazing.

Had an awesome meal, sauted shrimp for me and perch for him. My shrimp was perfectly cooked and delicious. Will visit again for sure!

Tracy is incredible! She truly cares about the quality of the food and ensures that customers leave satisfied. The new Windfall 52 is definitely worth a visit. Order some delicious food and a refreshing drink and have a great time. I'm so happy to have a fantastic place nearby that we can enjoy now. Thank you, Tracy!

In short, there is room for improvement. Also, reviews are not credible if the owner is pretending to be a customer.

We had several good meals here in the past. Shelly and Dave are now gone. Menu is now only sandwiches. It went from a huge menu to sandwiches. Not 1 entree. Salad bar is still there, but sandwiches don't include the salad bar. Why bother? There was 1 large group of 8 eating, they had their food. 5 people including us at the bar. When we asked for a menu bartender said its an hour wait...!?! New bartender is extremely unfriendly . I predict this will be closed very soon. Sad it was building a good business.
