The Wagner House — Restaurant in Freeport

Choosing The Wagner House as our wedding venue was the BEST choice we could have made...especially in the midst of a pandemic.

We booked before COVID took hold and were so excited. The space is incredible; a hot combo of urban meets rustic meets industrial. Wood floors, exposed brick walls, beamed ceilings and stringer lights overhead. Their flexibility was actually astonishing. From who we could use for any vendors, accessible the day before to set up and option to come back on Sunday to clean up (for a fee but it was very affordable). Food at our tasting was incredible and we were so excited for our wedding day.

Unfortunately, in true 2020 fashion, sh*t hit the fan for the second time in November and we had to cancel our full wedding. I cannot stress this enough, working with Megan to adjust our plans 100% 6 days before our wedding was as easy as it possibly could have been. She was quick to respond, helpful with suggestions and flexible in making our changes and still figuring out how to have our small ceremony in the space we loved so much.

Although our day was not what we originally expected it to be, it was still the most beautiful day I would relive 100 times over, all thanks to Megan.

WEDDING REVIEW for all the brides out there!

I'll start at the beginning.. we had A LOT of hiccups with the last wedding coordinator (I won't even go into those details). HOWEVER, when the new wedding coordinator took over; Danielle Rogers, everything was so smooth! Not only did Danielle have to fix all the issues from the last coordinator, she seriously went above and beyond for all our needs, wants, questions! I mean we moved couches, we added tables at the last minute, we changed seating assignments at the last minute, we needed 3 different chairs and she went personally to the stores and purchased those. I hope she sees this because I want her to know she did a fantastic job! Anything else that couldn't get done were small things and that was fine by us. The owner also let us take some furniture that you usually can't touch and even offered to drill holes in the wall to put something up (Wasn't necessary). But yea, good experience after everything we went through. Danielle you rock!!! Keep doing what...

If you're looking for an upscale establishment in Freeport, this is your first stop. Walking into the building gives you a warm and welcome feeling despite it being in an industrial turn of the century building. The liquor selection is from bar height to the ceiling, with some top self choices needing a ladder. If you can't find something you like here, you're not going to find it anywhere else in town. The menu is small and very specific to what they currently offer. There are no comfort or regular foods on it. The prices soar a bit and the serving size is small. Though the food that does come is excellent and beautifully presented to you. The staff behind the bar is great, but the wait staff at the tables is wanting. You may find trouble at a table. The owner is very frequently present and always a friendly character in the building. He makes it part of the experience to rub...
