Inland Door County — Restaurant in Town of Baileys Harbor

I grew up in the county and worked in the local restaurant industry until 2016. Back when I served tables, I loved giving guests recommendations for other restaurants on the peninsula. I remember being so excited about our food scene, and it seemed cool that we had local spots that were reaching new heights. Flash forward 10 years and I’m back visiting for a brief working holiday, and every single time someone’s asked me where my favorite spot to eat in door county is…I’d say Inland. There are undoubtably other places that have big nostalgic value and bring me back to childhood memories with my brothers, and there are other spots I’d take my parents for a sit down diner if we were celebrating a special occasion, but all things considered - my favorite culinary experience in the county is Inland. This menu is sneakily well balanced. Crunchy, pillowy, crisp, light, sour, umami, sweet, spicy, astringent, zesty, unctuous…it’s all here, and it’s in a killer location staffed by kick-ass people with hospitality in their blood. Most of my visits to the county are for the standard holiday weekends, and after this summer, Inland will be my must-visit-while-in-town spot. Bonus points: decore, vibe, music, glassware, bathroom cleanliness and odor, tactile and cozy hand towels, napkins with heft, and glass...

Inland is a Michelin star worthy eatery. Every aspect of the menu is on par with restaurants in Napa and Midtown Manhattan. They bring KALE to life and elevate simplistic ingredients to an entirely different realm of existence. The pizzas are absolute masterpieces with the exception of the pomodoro sauce. Although the sauce itself captured the richness of organic locally grown tomato it unfortunately did not have the robust flavors of garlic and basil that a traditional pomodoro possesses. As a relatively new eatery in Door county, Inland has everything one could ask for; from an outstanding wine list and a brilliant atmosphere that brings in natural lighting and highlights the organic hues and tones of the shoreline. The offerings highlight the artisan way of life which is Door county and the vinyl pulls it all together. From a place of great appreciation, admiration and respect, please work on the pomodoro sauce and evaluate the elements. Cheers to the team that make this place the crown gem of...

My wife Deb and I came twice in one week after we were treated truly like VIP's and realized that Inland is at THE TOP OF THEIR GAME when it comes to an elevated food/cocktail/wine menu but without ever losing the cozy atmosphere or genuine familial treatment you'd desire from an authentic pizzeria. The. service was top notch and our new friend Dusty was always around to chat at the bar, top off our drinks, give us great local recommendations or make suggestions on the menu. The owner, Amy, was incredibly knowledgeable and made us feel right at home. The pizza was delicious and filling but never made me feel heavy or tired. The wine section was thoughtful and aptly priced and their cocktail menu was fascinating, unique, creative and super tasty. Bring friends, bring a date, bring your family, bring a deck of cards -- however you choose to enjoy this place, know that you'll be treated like you're walking onto the set of Cheers and that you're in for a fantastic meal....
