THE BRIGHT SIDE
The Village Supper Club.
The ground has been broken to mark the beginning of the construction for the newest version of the iconic Village Supper Club on Delavan Lake. This legendary restaurant is located on the eastern shore of Delavan Lake and is being built under new owners and leadership. Loretta and Allan Kaplan will open their family-owned restaurant as a way to offer a traditional and nostalgic supper club dining experience. The new lakeside restaurant will offer stunning views of the water and a more modern way to enjoy a supper club. The new, 8,400 square-foot, upscale restaurant design was inspired by the local culture, building materials, textures and lifestyle often embedded in supper clubs.
The new design draws from the original club dating back to its opening in the 1900s with additions in the 50s, 70s and 80s and uses those original years as inspiration. The Kaplans hope that the new supper club will become a local favorite for families, locals and visitors, bringing everyone together to celebrate a good meal. An asymmetric stone fireplace will be prominently featured at the entry and an expansive A-frame roof structure was designed to hover over the main bar and dining areas to create a spacious interior with anall-glass façade made to enjoy the breathtaking lakeside sunsets. The design embraces lake life where the dock will lead to a large deck that will welcome boaters and their families to dine in or carry out and relax with no worries. The Village Supper Club is set to open later this year.
