Julie’s Cafe & Motel in Door County

Our story

 

A Fish Creek, Door County

TRADITION

The history of Julie’s Park Cafe & Motel began in 1997 when Julie Giller purchased the upscale Black Locust Restaurant and converted it into the old-fashioned, family-friendly breakfast and lunch restaurant we know today as Julie’s Park Cafe.

Julie also remodeled the adjacent motel, then known as the Peninsula Motel, adding a new freshness to an old Door County establishment. Julie’s Park Cafe & Motel was an immediate success in the rapidly-growing Fish Creek vacation scene, and the location at the entrance to Peninsula State Park proved to add significant appeal to an already great value.

Shane and Sande Solomon purchased Julie’s Park Cafe & Motel in March of 2010. Because of their previous experience in the restaurant industry and family in the Door County hospitality industry, Shane and Sande seized the opportunity to make the transition into owning and operating Julie’s Park Cafe & Motel.

In 2018, Sande and Shane wanted to expand their lodging offerings for guests. They bought the Countryside Cottages and continue to make exciting updates to the property. They also took over the management of the Evergreen Hill Condominiums and provide condos for rent for Door County vacationers.

In keeping with their goal of 100% satisfaction of guests, Shane and Sande look forward to continually updating the motel rooms as well as keeping things fresh in the cafe. They are dedicated to keeping the tradition of Julie’s alive and making the establishment more of a fixture in Door County.

Whether you’re stopping in to dine or staying in the motel, say hello to Shane, Sande and the rest of the Julie’s family.
