The Ellison
Restaurant & Lounge
Mid-Century Warmth. Timeless Door County Charm.
TEMPORARILY CLOSED​​
Discover The Ellison Restaurant & Lounge, where mid-century modern design meets culinary excellence in Ellison Bay. This inviting space is crafted for connection, offering a cozy retreat perfect for gathering with friends or enjoying a quiet evening. Wrapped in original wood paneling, soft amber lighting, and vintage design details, the lounge feels like a chapter pulled straight out of Door County’s golden era. Every detail from the curated décor to the intimate layout invites guests to settle in, slow down, and reconnect with the simple pleasures of good company and great conversation.
The Lounge was intentionally preserved to maintain its character; the kind of place where locals once gathered after long workdays, fishermen who helped found Ellison Bay shared stories, and travelers found unexpected moments of connection. Today, we continue that tradition by serving a locally sourced whitefish dish from Henricksen Fisheries, honoring the history embedded in these walls while breathing new life into it.
