Worst Easter buffet I have ever had. Most of the food was over cooked and unappetizing. Very poor set up. Coffee and soda was extra, over the 24.95 price. I was charged 5.08 because I used my credit card. I personally won't be back. read more

Do not recommend..Over an hour to get food, perch sandwich had 1 fillet, wasnt much bigger than a minnow, and the lettuce was rotten.

What a fantastic venue. As you walk in you see a large room filled with happy people eating chicken. The far wall of windows offers a view of a spacious dining patio and grass area which abutes the beach. Another patio holds a concert area where bands often play. Beyond is a very large Tiki bar. An adjacent grassy area is set up for various games. What a wonderful place to be in the Summer. Large banquet rooms accommodate weddings and parties. BUT the food is not great. Yes, they were very busy but that isn't an excuse when serving food. My medium rare bacon cheeseburger was beyond well done. The crusty Sheboygan roll was a big soft dense mass that wasn't worth the effort to choke down. The cheese barely hit the burger which also hung off the bun. My companion's patty melt had cheddar cheese in place of Swiss. In other words, enjoy the venue but think twice about eating there. read more

I like their Ice. It has an almost perfect square shape and and is very clear. The ice is Pushin

Our server Tanisha was the only bright spot. Waited 30 minutes for a drink from the bartenders who never smiled. Food was mediocre at best. read more

TERRIBLE service from our waitress. Burnt pretzel but nobody checked back. Took an hour and a half to get our meals. Never coming back.

Love this oasis of a place on a sunny summer day. Friendly service. Umbrella'ed tables are plentiful over looking the Southern tip of Lake Winnebago. Nachos appetizer is huge but hold the onions. Fried Wisconsin Platter is what you expect of it. The two appetizers were more than two women could finish for dinner. And we really liked the raspberry lemonade. Yummy. Baby Boomers at Happy Hour making way for younger and younger as the night progresses on a Thursday night. read more

Went to Waverly on New Years Eve, The band Was playing downstairs. in their hall. Friends and I ask if we could bring a barstool downstairs so a person in our group who has recent hip surgery. could sit and watch the band. Bouncer said standing room only. NO BARSTOOL. Went downstairs to watch band. At 8:30 I found some highchairs that were sturdy enough to act like barstools. Actually worked pretty good. One of the rude owners of the bar see that we are sitting and demands that we cannot sit on these and takes them away. This is at 11:30. Opens the bar for easy lawsuit. We left. If an owner of a bar can treat somebody who has recent hip surgery like this I never have to go back and I only live a block away. Food sucks anyway! read more

Has a great time. The drinks and food were delicious. Our bartender/waitress, Alyssa, was great. The customers were also friendly. I would love to see how busy, crazy it gets during a home Packer game. I would definitely go back b read more

See all

Wisconsin's answer for those wanting to get away and pretend they are in California somewhere. Tiki bars, live music, fish fry nights, seafood nights, tan girls serving you food and drinks, outdoor dining......they wanted to give that eternal summer feeling, and they do it well. I didn't eat here, we just stopped in for a few drinks. Like Fratellos it is on the river or lake or whatever that body of water (can you tell I'm not from here?) and there are plenty of people taking advantage of the nice summer weather, and enjoying their cocktails and beer outside on the patio or at the Tiki Bar. Rumor is also, that alot of the area's teachers like to break here for happy hour.....in fact we ran into a few while getting our drinks. read more

Went for a fish fry later in the evening on a Friday. Apparently there were two groups who had made reservations. One group was of 30 and the other was 15. Apparently the reservation policy at the restaurant does not require them to be there at a specific time as I and my date waited 45 minutes for a table while there were 20+ empty tables in the dining room. Couldn't even get near the bar to get a drink as the aforementioned groups were blocking the entire thing. After we ended up getting seated, we waited ten minutes for water and then had to wait another 10 to order. Food was okay. French fries were obviously under the fish for a while as they were soggy. Ordered the seafood platter and got two pieces of perch, four jumbo shrimp, one scallop, and a piece of haddock. Was basically deep fried fish and didn't stand out with any special unique flavor. Will probably go back in the future to see if this was a one off experience or not. Did note that the waitstaff and floor managers were having some issues communicating and heard a couple of snide remarks between servers that should not be said where customers can hear. read more

Extremely limited menu!!! Came for chicken dinner, nope! Just ordered soda's, Since Chuck left, it's not the friendly gathering place. Very disappointing read more

Excellent for summer outside dining or just having a cocktails and apps at the tiki bar. Good location for game day viewing, 1/2 price apps, drink specials, games etc. Good menu selection. If your looking for good chicken wings, skip BBW and come here. Much better and half the price! Nice atmosphere, service is just ok. Plenty of parking. read more

Fish dinner was not very good. Very busy. Walleye fillets were filled with bones. Our server was very nice, but Friday fish not recommend.

Great location, unfortunately the food wasn't. Very busy and apparently the kitchen was overwhelmed. Our appetizer came with our entrees & was cold & they forgot the chicken on my salad so I had to wait extra for them to bring out chicken.. which was rubbery & likely microwaved. Thankfully we had a great bartender. Didn't catch his name but he was young with longish hair.. friendly & apologized several time for the food. Likely won't be back soon. read more

OMG No! We have been going to Waverly Beach for years. As reported to us by the wait staff, there was a change in management the week before. Apparently, the new management team is doing everything possible to be sure the place closes and soon. The drinks were very weak, they didn't have salt for margaritas at the outdoor bar, and then -- wait for it -- they added an upcharge of $1 for ice in a margarita and another $1 for sugar in a brandy old-fashion. Then after we had sat around for an hour and a half without even being able to place our order (or even order appetizers) because the kitchen was "very backed up," our server informed us that they were out of essentially all seafood, a fatal error for a fish fry Friday night. So we found another restaurant nearby, and quite assuredly won't be back. Good job, new management team! read more

Let me start by saying that I have always liked Waverly Beach. Even under different management they have remained pretty consistent. The issue I had recently was this. I saw an ad for Dueling Pianos Dinner show on FB. The post said Free admission. I didn't expect the food to be free but thought the show was included. Our granddaughter plays piano and thought it would be a fun family thing to do. I reserved a table afted being assured the show would be okay to bring our granddaughter to. I was quite surprised when my tickets came and I was billed $180 for 5 tickets. I accepted this again for the family. Our granddaughter ended up being sick and what a blessing that turned out to be. Although the piano guys were very talented their humor was filthy. Beyond off color. The tickets stated for all ages right on them. At least put a warning on the advertising. I never would have booked this for my family. read more

Love the atmosphere! Service was sadly subpar tonight. I am also disappointed they charge for a side of ranch... Will be avoiding the food here from now on. read more

Great in the summer. Dead in the winter....... It works. Good bar food. If you are not a raw fooder. Ha read more

NOTE: REVIEW BASED ON DRINKS ONLY. Have never eaten here. I came here on a warm summer night and sat on some lawn chairs facing the lake with a pina colada in hand. It was a great atmosphere and a fun, lively experience. I am curious to one day try their food. I hope it lives up to the good drinks and beautiful setting. read more

Stopped on Sunday for chicken special Took 40 minutes to get food when it came the broasted chicken was over cooked to the point it was almost black. Poor quality of chicken fatty. Mashed potatoes served in a to go container like you would get at a drive thru. They gave us 20 percent off, which I thought was fair Until I paid the bill with cash They charged a 3.00 percent credit card convenience fee. When I [ paid with cash] will not be going back. read more

I'm not from the area and love coming here when I can. Whether it's a weekday or weekend their menu has a good variety of options to choose from and can even offer gluten sensitive options for those who have gluten intolerance. Their waitstaff is wonderful along with the bartenders. This is a great place for friends and family to meetup and enjoy some great food and drinks; in the summer my favorite part is their tiki bar. Highly recommend Waverly Beach for anything from private parties, birthdays, weddings, or company events. read more

I would avoid Waverly beach at ALL COSTS if you want to eat. Group of about 20, room reserved, 1/2 got supper, then 45 min later the last half of the group got their food, except 2 took another 10 min. SERIOUSLY REDICLOUS!!! While the WHOLE time outside guests had food moving out there constantly. read more

Quality has definitely gone down. We given it dozens of tries and left unhappy more times than we can count. Great atmosphere. Definitely left a lot to be desired everywhere else. read more

I have never seen such disrespect before in my life. I didn't realize that bouncers now don't have to ID everyone, As long as they look old enough they are told they look old and they don't need to see it. How rude to say to anyone. And they singled only one girl out, We walked in with at least 15 of us for a party and they had no one in the bar so they lost out on a lot of business from us because after I had a chat with the bouncer who disrespected a girl with us they kick me out, so everyone else followed. If I was you I would find a different place to go to and never go back. read more

Horrible service yet again. Was there for a birthday party two weeks ago and couldn't get a beer because we were supposed to have a "special server". Had to go to the bar every time. Today we sat at the tiki bar. There were 5 people behind the bar but 3 must be allergic to alcohol because they didn't seem to serve drinks. A group to our right had to move to our left because apparently they were in a dead zone. Horrible service again. Can't keep our drinks filled on a hot day. Won't fool me a 3rd time. Not going back. read more

We finally made the trip to Waverly Beach since 2019. We had heard its beautiful inside so it was a Firday night drinks and meal that we went for. IT IS BEAUTIFUL INSIDE!!!!!! we were a bit overwhelmed on where we should sit. Anyway, the beers are a bit overpriced but we figured it went with the beauty. We ordered the brussels sprouts for appetizers and they were surprisely awesome!!! My spouse got the beef tenderloins for his meal. He loved it so much he practically licked his plate clean. I ordered the Ahi Tuna steak salad. I order tuna steak often on meals and salads at other restaurants and never disappointed...except this time. Exception of the tuna and the cabbage, the rest was odd. The texture and mixings of the salad tasted like they were trying to be overly creative and made it part southwest. To be honest, it just seemed disgusting. I am hoping that someone from their kitchen staff will see this review and maybe change the salad mix a bit that it is more palatable. read more

We just ordered the Walleye and Haddock. The curbside was very well organized and came out right on time. The food was outstanding and the portions were large. We come here from time-to-time. We like sitting outside and watch the waves, so tonight we found a place to park by the lake and ate our dinner. read more

Great location right on Lake Winnebago. Service was friendly and relatively fast. Our main issue was about value. For a simple BLT with 2 strips of bacon, a couple of very thin tomato slices and a lot of lettuce we were charged $8.50. WOW-simply not worth it. The cheese curds looked and tasted as though they were poured from a giant bag purchased at Costco. The fried pickles were tasty and we'd order them again. Go for the view and a cold beer but skip the food. read more

Decent fish fry can't make up for terrible service--the waitress blamed our large party (about 10) for the slow service, but other parties were waiting a long time as well. The wait was truly awful--over an hour. How long can it take to fry some fish? read more

Employees were at the bar after work drinking with their friends and skipping customer music on the TouchTunes. Pretty unprofessional and embarrassing. Once it was brought to the managers attention the employees (or group) responded with "well their music sucks." I was reimbursed by the manager, but I feel that employees should know better and that further action should have been taken. Especially considering they continued to make fun of and insult the group I was with. WILL NOT be returning. read more

This review is not for the restaurant but the water just off the shore. Located on the north shore of Lake Winnebago, this is a great place to (literally) drop anchor. It's one of the few places on the lake with a nice sandy bottom - from 1 ft to 3 ft deep. Bring your own beer, blare the radio and toss around a football. Lots of people like to gather here and soak up the sun. If you run out of beer you can always walk to shore and order one from this restaurant/bar. When a band is in town, just turn down the radio and let the notes make their way over the waves. read more

Tiki hut, a carona, waves crashing... am I in Mexico? Nope, in Wisconsin. OK the water is dirty not blue and the patrons aren't tan and skinny... but hey, the hot wings were good! Pizza not bad. Nachos amusement park style. Atmosphere... fantastic. The bartender makes up where the food leaves off. Eat at the bar. read more

Horrible service. My Wrap also fell apart too easily when I ate it. The nachos were extremely cheap. Drinks were expensive

Had our Christmas party for work here. Enjoyed their giant nacho platter.

Nacho Supreme was not very Supreme, $9 for a bunch of chips, luke warm cheese and very little meat. The staff not very friendly and a bartender that can't make an old fashion in Wisconsin. Come on Man! Won't go out of my way to visit this place again. read more

Horrible servers with a bad attitutde, my group was treated like we were trespassing - go anywhere else neither the food nor the drinks are with it! read more

Went for Friday fish with 4 other people. Found a piece of plastic in the appetizer, and 2 potatoes with rotten spots in them. Server was decent even though it was only the poor guys 2nd day. The manager was rude. Stated that he couldn't help that the potatoes had rotten spots. Said he would take the appetizer and a drink off the bill. That took 2 tries. He did give us a $20 gift card for a later time though. Not sure if it will ever get used though. read more

Hats off to our server Madeline. She cheerfully took care of our table of 28 last nite. Great service. Great food. Great atmosphere. Thanks Waverly! read more

I've been there 3 times. Beautiful place on a summer evening. But that is the best I can say... Trying to get a table outside is a total disaster. Terribly slow service. Over a 1 1/2-hour wait. Staff acts like you are a bother. They blame the management! My sticky table was never cleaned - even after I asked to have it cleaned. The food quality is inconsistent. I have to blame the management too. This place makes plenty of money despite management that can't do as much as organize customer seating much less train their staff to make their restaurant an inviting retreat. I really expect more when I go out and spend $80-$100 on a dinner for my family. read more
