Good old fashioned kind of spot with locals. Had a great meal and a few drinks for a fair price.

Birmingham’s, Door County — Where Grit Meets Supper Club Charm

Step into Birmingham’s and you’ll swear you just wandered into the set of a Wisconsin noir — half supper club, half small-town battlefield. Our waitress, a glorious battle axe of a woman (or maybe a wounded fighter back from the front), limped from table to table with the precision of a seasoned general. No nonsense, no frills — just the business of food and drink, delivered with a side of steely resolve. Frankly, we loved her.

The bar was jammed, as if the entire county got the memo that Friday cocktails taste better shoulder-to-shoulder. The tables? Sparse. A scattering of diners here and there, all eyeing the table with the coveted view (not ours, of course — next time we’ll arm wrestle for it).

The vibe is pure classic: dark wood, old-school charm, and the faint feeling that everyone knows everyone’s business — and doesn’t mind a bit. They run a rotating menu that changes daily, which keeps things interesting and keeps you guessing (Wednesday’s perch? Thursday’s ribs? Roll the dice). Our food was solid — kitchen on point — but rumor around the bar says the burger is the crown jewel. We’ll be back to test that legend ourselves.

All told? Birmingham’s is a little rough around the edges and all the better for it. Come for the supper club nostalgia, stay for the waitress who could probably teach you a thing or two about life.

They forgot my order and they dropped a chicken strip on the floor the ranch sucks and the servers are Karen’s. And are very slow. 2 out of 10

The food was great. I had the roasted chicken. Amazing. Others had the pork chops and also so good. Last couple both had hamburgers and said they were the best hamburgers they ever had. Jodi our server was so sweet and helpful. She really made the meal so much fun. Want a great meal and a great time stop in to Birmingham's.

All of the staff were polite and very helpful. The waitress was attentive. The food was bland and lacked flavor, but to be fair, it was cheap. Served on paper plates. Cash only! All the locals were at the bar, so perhaps the drinks are where it's at.

I love how they cook the ribeye! I had it with fried onions and the steak was cooked the way I love, and I will eat 4 times on the 16 oz ribeye! My husband says it's the best he ever ate! Birmingham is worth every penny!

1st picture is breaded lobster bites,
Then my dinner salad with crumble blue cheese and blue cheese dressing,
Then my 16oz ribeye steak rare,
Was very very tender and juicy, perfectly done. ??
But unfortunately they didn't season it and was very bland, no taste.?????
But overall service was terrific ?⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Parking: There is plenty of parking on both sides of the street.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's every easy for a wheelchair but unfortunately, it's an old place, and bathrooms are not handicap friendly ?

A great place for lunch and dinner. Outstanding burgers served on house made bread (not on a bun.) Dinner service with daily specials. Tends to get quite busy for dinner service.
