The Inspiration Behind Julie’s Park Cafe
The rich heritage of Julie’s Park Cafe started back in 1997 when Julie Giller purchased a restaurant which was known as Black Locust Restaurant. It was a former “first-class” restaurant that catered to everyone, including the richest in the area. There was also a motel on the property known as Peninsula Motel, which Julie completely transformed into a great eating spot.
The restaurant that many people knew back in the day is not the same today as the menu has changed in its entirety but has retained the popular status it had in the early days. The new location features easy access for those who are looking to enjoy the environment while they take in some mesmerizing and mouth-watering delicacies.
Back in 2009, Julie hired Shane and Sande Solomon as restaurant managers, and after seeing how amazing it was, they decided to purchase it in 2010. The Solomons’ have worked in a restaurant before and have initially fallen in love with the hospitality industry.
However, before they went to Julie’s Cafe, Shane worked as an administrator at a university while Sande worked as an ESL and Spanish tutor. The couple’s family is not new to the whole idea of owning and operating a lodging business in the Door County area.
Their excitement peaked when they finally realized they owned the restaurant and motel, and, since then, has made it their point of duty to satisfy every guest that comes through their doors. They want to keep the first love for Julie alive for those in and around Door County and those who desire to experience the best of the city.

Stuffed French Toast
I had the Stuffed French Toast – it is filled with Door County Cherries and cream cheese and topped with whipped cream. It was amazing!
It was cooked to perfection – and was complimented beautifully with the coffee I had. The tart cherries really offset the cream cheese and made for a decadent, yet delicious sampling.
