McGregor's Blink Bonnie Supper Club

Great food and drinks!

The draw of McGregor’s is the tradition, experience, and service. If you’re going to line up before open bring your tailgate accessories (chair and drinks) and be prepared for the earliest arrivals to have sent a designated representative so the line may grow at the front closer to open. (And if you’re sending a designated waiter, buy that person another drink when inside! :) )
The solo bartender deserves a medal for doling good drinks out timely and working with the patrons waiting for tables.
Bread came out piping hot and crispy. Salads are a nice starter but agreed with other reviewers it’s an iceberg lettuce based salad dressed up with bacon bits, croutons, and crunchy pretzel type bits. House dressing was a garlic ranch. Ordered a 7 oz filet mingon and ribeye. The filet was tender and cooked well but if you’re looking for your seasoned, Chicago style steakhouse flair, look elsewhere. The ribeye wouldn’t be a repeat order based on cut and lack of seasoning. Had an added order of broiled shrimp on the side of ribeye and this was this guest’s favorite part of the meal being seasoned and cooked well. Ordered steak fries and baked potato as sides which were pretty ordinary. Saw several orders of hashbrowns so these likely are the popular choice of potato.
Prices were fair and overall pleasant meal. A recommended experience for families who are open to applying a vacation mentality in waiting and if you’ve been missing out on that large family holiday get together vibe for a meal.

Fantastic steak & mushrooms!!

Best steaks up north by far

This supper club deserves every single rave review that it receives. From the old fashioneds to the salads and then the steaks - perfection! Expect to wait, but know that it’s worth it. Highly recommend the stop when you’re in the Northwoods!

McGregor's is a quintessential North Woods experience.
EXPECT TO WAIT.
Their wee kitchen can only turn out so much at a time, and I noticed one stove is dedicated to heating the sizzling platters your steaks come out on.
That, in conjunction with 13 tables, limits the turnover.
Having said that, the drinks are well poured, the staff is friendly, the food is great, and the people watching more than makes up for no TV to stare at in the bar.
They are also installing a new patio area, not to eat on, but to make your wait more enjoyable ( see 'people watching' comment above).

Brought the fam here after a day of fishing. I ordered the chops… thin, dry and no flavor. Kids got kids burger dinners, meat tasted like soy. Wife got surf and turf, beef had no flavor and lobster was chewy. Great old fashioned’s tho. $160 bill, not worth it.

The steaks were fairly tasteless. The 16oz. porterhouse I got had a lot of fat on it and seemed like maybe a 1/3rd of it was edible because of it. Had I not gotten the mushrooms and onions on the side for an extra 7 dollars I would have definitely not eaten any of the steak. My wife’s 10oz. tenderloin was fairly tasteless as well but a decent chunk of meat. I got a piece of the turtle cheesecake afterwards which was very good. For $140 for two meals and two drinks and smelling like a fried pork chop when you walked out of there because of the lack of exhaust fans or whatever, I will not go back. Way overpriced and way over hyped up in my opinion. If this is what the food is always like with the number of positive reviews this place has I really have to wonder what kind of places the people saying how good the steaks are, are going to. Unbelievable.

So good. I didn't think the wait was worth it, but it really is.
