My 1000th Review.... And it for something special!…read more My son's wedding was held at The Gibson Social Club last weekend and everything went well! This venue is pretty cool. Back when I went to college in Oshkosh it was a car dealership. Now it's a wedding venue with a lot of old fashioned style. Great for wedding pictures! The planners and employees of the venue were very professional and helpful. Had no problems at all. If you are going to have your wedding or party here, here are some things to be prepared for. Parking. There is a paid parking lot attached to the venue. However parking is free for guests. The problem is that most don't know until after they paid! (There are parking passes located inside the door of the venue). Make sure to tell your guest if you can! Farmers Market. On Saturdays in summer there is a farmers market until 12:30pm, but in our case Main St did not re-open until about 1:30. So some out of town guest had a rough time finding the place. (Wedding was at 2pm). Noise. The venue is basically an open hall so it is a little noisy during the "happy hour" and other open conversation times, but the sound systems worked very well and everybody could hear well during speeches. Hotels. Closest hotel is about six blocks away. But fills up because it's attached to a convention center... so book early! Process. If you plan on getting married at this location be aware that you will have to leave for a while so they can get the venue reset for the meal and party. We all went to a fun bar across the street and then came back and couple of hours later. Fun day for my family and friends. Very happy with the venue.

Great wedding venue. Somewhat limited by size and acoustics. The staff does a great job of…read morequickly converting the spaces. Wedding, cocktails, dinner, and dancing all in the same space. It has a front parlor which is a bit quieter. Nice beer and spirits selection. Adjacent free parking. Beautiful building.

We attended an event here. I understood when they asked me to take my purse back to my car but when…read morethey would not let me bring in an empty water bottle it seemed a bit much. I went to another event at a different venue where I was not allowed to have my water either and later after that passed out due to dehydration and blood pressure issues. I do explain this that I'm a disabled veteran and sometimes need things that help. Buying a four dollar water makes me feel that I cannot drink it and I still can become dehydrated )not having water bring on anxiety after being deployed.) I was told I cannot bring it in and had to take it back to the cars as well. Then I walked through and the person in front of me gets to bring a backpack in because it's considered the diaper bag. I was told to put my water in a medical bag and they would mark it as such. I find it interesting in the military, i was allowed a m16 loaded with me at all times, including briefing daily out 3 star general, sectary of defense for the country, and the president, but i can't bring a water bottle to battle through the injuries i endured protecting the country.

3 stars for the herd game. 0 stars for the food. Absolutely the worst food we have ever had out…read more Now I expect game food but the brats were more like hot dogs and the burger was so over cooked it was not edible. We settled for a pretzel after the let down. Again, rock hard. If you enjoy a game, stick to the game and drinks. Save your money!

Typical run of the mill Holiday Inn Express. The beds are comfy and the Wi-Fi actually works…read more Staff are friendly too. I discovered the last day I was there that they had complementary drinks at night. Too bad no one at the front desk told me when I checked in, I would've taken advantage of it. There are a lot of chain restaurants nearby, along with a grocery store, and Wal-Mart. Downtown Oshkosh is ten minute drive away. My biggest annoyance was the gym, which consisted of a few machines, none of which worked properly. I must be the only one that cares about staying fit on the road.

We booked a suite at the Holiday Inn in Oshkosh so my daughter could have a birthday sleepover with…read morea few friends and enjoy the pool. Shortly after the kids arrived, the manager approached me and said the hotel doesn't allow birthday parties. I explained that I work as an Uber and Lyft driver and regularly transport high school and college students to and from events at this hotel, but he said he didn't believe me. While I can't prove anything definitively, it seemed the issue arose when he saw a large group of Black guests arriving. The parents were simply dropping off their children, some of whom were later picked up, and yet the staff's demeanor shifted noticeably. At one point, their tone also changed when they noticed my "Veterans Against Trump" bumper sticker. While they made some accommodations, it felt more like fear than a genuine desire to help. As a combat veteran and small business owner, I expect respectful and fair treatment wherever I go. Unfortunately, this experience did not meet that standard. We will not be returning, and I cannot recommend this hotel. Service should not depend on race or political views, and the treatment we received was disappointing and unprofessional.
