Testimonials

We had a wonderful time! Your venue, staff, and food were all incredible! Nikki really went out of her way to fulfill any request I had. My husband and I commented last night about how happy we were with our night and wondered what excuse we could come up with to host another event.

-Jes

We had such a lovely time at our baby shower on August 1st. The servers were perfect…. The food was ridiculously delicious. Everything was just right. Thank you so much for all your help.

-Debbie Peters

I would like to thank you and your staff for organizing an amazing sweet 16 party for my daughter Olivia. We were so impressed with your helpful staff and the amazing views of Alice’s restaurant. The food was delicious.

-Marie Casale

[I] commend you and your staff for making our engagement party perfect. After a year postponing I was mentally prepared for a day of stress and anxiety but day of I felt none and I believe that is majorly due to your team. Every accommodation request was met with a yes. If anything went wrong, we had no idea. Thank you and your staff for being friendly and helpful and professional. The food was amazing, I am still getting texts from guests about it all! It was worth the wait to be able to have the event at Alice's! 

-Ani Cuttitta & Scott Young

We had our rehearsal/welcome dinner at Alice's the night before our wedding and it was perfect! We booked the Four Seasons Patio and the views are absolutely beautiful!! The staff was great to work with, from emailing with Kim about pricing and menu options to day of servers and bartenders. The food and service was amazing and all we really need to do was show up! 

-Ashley H.

We had our wedding rehearsal dinner at Alice's and everything was great! From the views of the lake and the sun setting over it to the food and the staff, we felt taken care of all night. The room itself was private and just available to our group, which made the experience feel more personal and intimate. We had our guests telling us all evening how wonderful the space was and how delicious the food tasted. We'd definitely recommend Alice's for hosting your event! 

-Trisha L.

We had our rehearsal dinner and welcome party at Alice's and everything was great! The food was great and the space itself is breathtaking with the view of Lake Hopatcong. They were very easy to work with and flexible with some last minute changes we had. We had booked the venue originally before the pandemic when it was still a public restaurant and did not iron out the welcome party details until last minute but they put us at ease in working out the logistics so quickly. The planner and staff were great and would highly recommend them for any events! 

-Stephanie C.

I had my daughter's bridal shower at The Windlass. The Lake Room was absolutely beautiful with a pretty view of the lake! The food was delicious and everything was served as scheduled. The staff "working" the room were just awesome! 

-Jo-Ellen S.

I had my husband's 30th birthday party at The Windlass and I have nothing but great things to say! I worked with Brittany and Kimberly and they were extremely helpful & always responded to my emails in a timely manner. My friends and family are still raving about how delicious the food was weeks later. Our servers who worked the party the day of were also great! They were very attentive to all of the guests. Last but not least, the view is so beautiful! I highly recommend The Windlass for any couple who is looking for a place to have an engagement party or rehearsal dinner. 

-Rachel W.

Prevention is Key’s fundraising events hosted by The Windlass have become a staple in our organization's annual calendar. The venue is beautiful, the staff is accommodating, the food is delicious, and the sunsets over Lake Hopatcong; legendary! We recommend The Windlass for your upcoming event.

-Prevention is Key

We typically eat here at least once a week and I must say I was extremely pleased with the 2 parties The Windlass provided to my family and I. The first one was for my mother's surprise 75th birthday on Friday and the very next day was my daughters high school graduation party. Service, Staff and food were incredible. If I am hosting another event, I will be coming back to the Windlass. Kim and Brittany were extremely helpful.
