About The Oaks

The Oaks is a beloved local spot known for their Sunday brunch. The outdoor seating, live music, and beautiful lake views make it a popular place for celebrations like birthday dinners. The patio dining offers a great setting to enjoy the sunset over Chippewa Lake or relax among the gardens. The food is generally good, with appetizers such as calamari and shrimp, and the bar inside serves outstanding drinks. Customers often praise the scenic view, comparing it favorably to places in Toronto, Seattle, and San Diego. The wait staff are consistently excellent, providing attentive service, and the bartender is known for mixing a mean cocktail.

Recent visits highlight that the menu is limited but well-executed, with dishes like pork chop and shrimp scampi being delicious and cheesecake also receiving praise. The atmosphere is enhanced by live music, which is sometimes performed on the Terrace, creating a lively environment, though it can be loud enough to hinder conversation. The staff is friendly and accommodating, but occasional understaffing has been noted, leading to slower service. Despite some menu changes and moments of busy service, many find The Oaks to be a special place to meet friends, enjoy beautiful views, and have a good meal, with hopes for continued improvements in food quality.

We enjoyed another delightful evening at Oaks Lakeside last night.
Eric created a Lucious desert with cherries and whip cream. A pie that was better than any we’ve had.
We enjoy all the people who work at the Oaks and friends we meet.
Another wonderful evening. Great view of the sunset !
