Skip’s Restaurant

Great place! Love the food and the atmosphere! Employees are great (friendly and awesome service). Prices seem very comparable to other places in the area. They’ve also got a few vintage arcade games and a pinball machine. Definitely a go to if you’re in the area and hungry. Almost forgot their pizza is amazing

I’ve been to skips many times in the past and thought their food was average but due to few options in the area I’ve eaten here when needed. Today was one of those days where a quick meal was needed for my family. I pre-​read their menu on their facebook page and was immediately drawn to their high prices. The price that really made me do a double take was the price of their kids meal. $ 7.50? Really? I can take my kids to any high quality sit down restaurant within 50 miles and find no kids menu prices higher than $ 6.50 and that is for higher quality food.
They really like to nickle and dime you here at Skips, you get charged extra for sport peppers, and it’s .50 for refills. (I haven’t seen an eatery charge for refills since the 90’s)
I ordered the jumbo char dog and cheese fries. My hot dog must had gone swimming because there was nothing «jumbo» about that hot dog. Was shorter than the bun and maybe 10% greater in diameter than your standard oscar meyer hot dog.
Anyone from Wisconsin would be ashamed to call what Skip’s provides you to dip you fries in as «cheese». Just a nasty yellow dip, after once taste ketchup was a much better option.
Downtown Williams Bay really needs a quality restaurant/​fast food option. Until they do my money will continue to go to outside towns that offer better food.

I’m a family man and Skip’s is great fun for the family, games, great lake environment, fun to visit by boat and the food is consistent and very good. Prices are in par with the other restaurants around the lake and the kids meals are only $ 4 with drink. Great place for a fun casual date on a summer day.

Friendly staff and another great place to get a bite to eat. Seasonal hours now. Closed during the winter months. Pricing can be a little high on some items.

They should change the name to rips with these prices.wow.
Food is good though. Burgers are a highlight. Fries just ok. Friendly staff.

Super friendly service, food was hit and fresh, but I’m thinkin this place is too pricey for an old school hot dog stand feeling place (you know, the kind with the nostalgic coke signs and those little black letters on that board as the menu). My g/​f & I had 2 drinks, a hot dog& fries, & chick tenders w/​cheese curds for $ 20, eek…
Cool inside though, loved the boat theme& carved in tables.

Skips is a Williams Bay institution. We’ve been going for years dating back to 2003. Restaurants come and go in Williams Bay but Skips is there for the long haul. Pizza, burgers, salads, sandwiches, we’ve had the all. We usually phone in and order to go and take on the boat or home. With visitors we usually eat in and enjoy some ice cream after the meal.

great place to grab a hot dog and fries when you want to go to the beach… they have cool decorations around the place… also the pizza is very good

Great widgets. Best doughnuts I’ve ever had.
The sandwiches were nice and good after a huge hike around Lake Geneva, the room was cosy and warm.
Full recommendation from my side!

Great Chicago style sandwich shop with a boat theme. Friendly owners and tasty food.

There is a much better place for a burger and it’s sammeez! Skips is overpriced and staff is really rude. Our family banned skips 2 years ago and don’t need to look back!

The food is overpriced and the service sub-​par. Unfortunately, there aren’t too many options in Williams Bay for burgers, ice cream etc. so this is probably the place to go.
If you do decide to eat here, the widgets are tasty.

What can i say but GREAT!!! i miss it at my old house when it was a tiny shack just down teh street… oh the good olé days!

The best greasy, All-​Amer corner stand food you can get, only jazzed up a bit. I went to high school with the girl whose family owns this place, and they do an awesome job with everything: burgers, shakes, chicken fingers, fries, sundaes, onion rings, gyros, and the famous not-​to-​be-​missed (on your frequent travels to Williams Bay, WI, obv.) widgets — like doughnut holes only doughyer and softer and airier and fresh out of the fryer and covered in cinnamon sugar. YUM. Grab a bag to go and walk the block down to the lakefront. Ah, home — where people eat what tastes damn good even if it makes ‘em fat. I miss you.
