Great location by Ephraim City Hall, mediocre hamburger and good salad. Tight tables and limited servers that were overloaded because of peak season.

Outstanding lunch and atmosphere. Had the flounder and pistachio crusted chicken. Topped off with strawberry rhubarb and Apple pie. All excellent and very friendly service.

This place is so cute!! My husband and I first came here 12 years ago on our honeymoon, and loved it, and we have made a point to go back every time we go up to The Door. We were a little disappointed to find out they no longer serve breakfast other than Saturday and Sunday and that’s if you get there before 11AM. So when we got there close to noon and were told they weren’t serving breakfast I was disappointed, mainly because I love their scones, specifically their raspberry white chocolate scone, but after telling my server how much I loved their scones she went back and found one for me. That alone tells you about the service of this place, they go above and beyond for their guests. I ended up getting their Turkey BLT sandwich which was sooo good! Loved the honey mustard it was paired with, made every bite an enjoyment. My husband got a burger that he thought was just “okay”. The soup was also just okay, but that was a personal preference. The service alone makes up for any of the food and the cherry pie was really good! Check out the Chefs Hat!! Great views of the bay, warm cozy atmosphere, top notch service! You won’t be disappointed!

The food was good, our margarita has a old lime, but our waiter was very intense. The atmosphere was relax and beautiful, we decided to stay outdoors.

One of my favorite patios to eat on in Ephraim. Crab 🦀 stuffed shrimp is my favorite with bonus stuffed peppers. Yum!

Great lunch stop, excellent food. Potato salad was well seasoned and tasty with egg, celery, etc. Turkey BLT was perfect, moist and well balanced between meat and toppings.

Very relaxed, casual vibes. Food and service was impeccable. Chef's Hat offers many options - including many gluten free options! All staff and service members were welcoming, kind, and accommodating. We relaxed on their patio with a wonderful meal... the door county way!

My husband & I stopped for a mid afternoon snack. We had the garden bruschetta and the crab stuffed shrimp with boursin cheese stuffed papadew (a south African piquante pepper). The bruschetta was okay, we both loved the crab stuffed shrimp. My husband liked the stuffed papadew but as I don't care for spicy, I didn't care for that. We also both had dessert, I had the nanaimo bar which wasn't as good as I'd hoped. My husband had the cheesecake which he enjoyed.
Very good food and great cocktails!! Friendly atmosphere

Had the brisket Benedict and the avocado toast. Food was good. Service was ok. Only downside (and the reason for 4 instead of 5) was a slight moldy/musty smell that was off-putting. Yes, it’s by the lake but that was not pleasant.

Great little cafe. Our lunch was delicious. The soup, 1/2 sandwich, chips, and pie combo was perfect for thia early fall day. The cherry lemonade is perfect for Door County.

Once upon a time, had a good breakfast experience in the past and wanted to go again. This time the server didn't listen well to my ordering and was verbally rude when I asked for specific things or asked questions. The food wasn't that great this time. Won't ever go back here again. There are other much better places we enjoyed in Door County with much better service.
