About This Spot

Stepping into Valmy Happy Hour feels like slipping into a familiar neighborhood gathering spot where the pace gently slows and warm conversations take center stage. Situated just off Whitefish Bay Road in Sturgeon Bay, this small bar and grill carries the relaxed comfort of a well-loved tavern—a place where the hum of easy laughter blends seamlessly with the clink of glasses and friendly banter from the bar.

The atmosphere is unpretentious and welcoming, a spot that invites both locals and visitors to unwind without rushing. Whether the afternoon sun spills softly through the windows or the evening brings a cozy dimness, there’s a steady but unhurried rhythm here that encourages you to stay a while. A friendly barkeep behind the bar and attentive yet laid-back service create a feeling that you’re more than just a customer—you’re part of the experience.

Food and drink at Valmy Happy Hour echo that straightforward, comforting vibe. Think well-crafted classics that pair perfectly with a cold draught—comforts that satisfy without fuss. From crispy broasted chicken to juicy burgers and fresh fish sandwiches, the menu offers something for every appetite, including lighter greens and familiar kid-friendly choices. The daily specials, like a plate of BBQ ribs on a Thursday, add a touch of local flavor and routine to the week.

You’ll find the kind of place that’s equally appealing to families, groups of friends, or solo travelers seeking a genuine local stop without pretense. Clean spaces, friendly faces, and thoughtfully prepared food make it a dependable lunch or early evening destination when you're exploring the Door County area. It’s the kind of spot where you can quietly appreciate a well-poured beer, catch up with old friends, or simply watch the day unfold around you.

Valmy Happy Hour may not dazzle with trendiness, but it offers a steady, satisfying warmth—the kind of down-to-earth neighborhood gem that invites you to come back again and again.

Service was great but I took 1 star off because the pricing seemed a little odd. Someone at the table got the chicken strips ($9) and it only came with 3 small ones, which is $3 a strip, and that seems like way to much especially considering the cod sandwich is only $6.

Great for what it is - pleasant tavern vibe where a decent burger, fries n a beer won’t set you back twenty bucks. Vegetarian options include salad, pizza, and fried appetizers. Friendly barkeep.

Wow this place was cheap and food was great! Glad we found it for the first time especially after coming up here every year. We were a group of 13 on a Friday afternoon in October and it was empty.

The Valmy Happy Hour was a small bar and grill. The food was great. The cheese curds ($8.5) were awesome as well as the steak sandwich ($11.95) and the cod sandwich ($6.75). The prices were great especially for a touristy area in Door County. The service was fast and freindly. This is a great lunch stop when travelling up Door County.

Great experience! The bathrooms and restaurant were clean, the staff were very friendly and the burger was delicious! Go here at least once and you’ll want to come back!

Great local place. Use 2 go here 15 years ago. It's a no bones above average food. At a honest price. Years back they only had Domestic beer on tap. 2 my great surprise They had little solider from annanape in algoma. And it was ice cold!

Wonderful "found" spot. Returning from Door County and came across this gem. Excellent broasted chicken special served with mashed potatoes and stuffing. Very busy, one waitress - she was great! Highly recommend.

Visiting and needed a quick bite to eat on the way back to the campground. Came across this gem, so needed to give it a try. We had a grilled chicken sandwich and fries and their special of a half broasted chicken. Highly recommend either. Grilled chicken was extremely juicy and on a potato toasted bun. Fries were like brew fries, which are some od my favorites. Also had an appetizer of onion rings, which was very decent sized and reasonably priced. Highly recommend if close by.
