    Memorabilia at Classics
    John G.

    My wife has family in Shawano so we've bounced around on visits to local bars, but Classics has quickly become our favorite. It's an impressive establishment in general, not just for a small town, and has a great vintage feel to it. The bar speaks to the good old times of Rock and Roll, Bluegrass, Blues, and Jazz. There's some great memorabilia hanging on the walls from artist sketches, famous photos, "classic" guitars, and more. They have a nice wraparound bar, and several different sections of the place to walk around in and look at all the fun entertainment. My favorite part is the several large TVs and projection screen that have a DVD video concert playing when there isn't a live band in the restaurant itself. Everytime I've come (and taste is obviously relative), they've had a band I really enjoy playing on the videos or a live band that is doing a fantastic job. And because of the solid accoustics, it sounds like a concert regardless of which is happening. The food menu is impressive, both in variety/quality and unfortunately in price. Pretty steep for Shawano with a lot of dishes clocking in between $15-30, but from what I've had you at least get your money's worth in the taste department. My Prime Rib (14oz) was very scrumptious with a delicious seasoning on the fries, and the accompanying Chicken Dumpling soup was decent too. Overall I enjoyed my wife's food a little better, she got the $10.95 Prime Rib sandwhich special which was just about as hearty in size but easier on the wallet and even tastier when finely sliced. There were quite a few steaks and pastas on the menu that require a return visit, but overall the food is worth exploring since they have a full restaurant attached to the bar and cater to higher end fare rather than the stock pub food served by many neighbors. Service is friendly; on several visits we've had some lengthy conversations with bartenders and waitstaff and the mood is always positive. Never an excessively long wait for food or drinks, even when they've been bustling, and while the food is a little pricey the drinks are cheap. Usually $3-4 or less for a beer or mixed drink and almost always something on special. Classics is for sure worthy of its title, make it a stop on your list when traveling norte

    Cool hall of records!

    This is the best food in the area. A gourmet meets supper club menu. The wine pairing dinners monthly are excellent too!

    We had an unfortunate experience this past Saturday at The Washington Inn in Cecil…read more We came in with a party of 10 around 5pm, fully expecting a wait since they don't take reservations--but we did not expect to wait 1 hour and 45 minutes. During that time, no one from staff checked in with us, which made the wait feel even longer. When we finally asked a manager for an update, her response came across as dismissive. She mentioned a private dining group and said she'd ask if we could be seated there. Meanwhile, we noticed open tables in the main dining area that seemed like they could have been pushed together, but we were told that wasn't an option. After being seated, I politely asked the manager if they might consider offering a couple of appetizers on the house given the long wait. She said she would check with the owner/chef, but when our waitress arrived, we were told "no" without any further explanation. That said, I do want to be fair--the food was very good. The steaks were cooked perfectly and seasoned very well, and the rest of the meals were also very good. Once we were seated, the service itself was prompt. It's just disappointing that the overall experience lacked communication and a bit of customer care. A small gesture could have gone a long way. Because of that, we likely won't return--but we will say the food is great, even if the service and communication left a lot to be desired.

    Everything is always good here. Service and food excellent. We go on Saturday night's always great.read more
