We didn’t eat, only had drinks. Great area and great view of the lake and its background. Look at the fire pit, looks like someone was there.
Sat on the patio and enjoyed the excellent weather and great service. Prime rib sliders were ridiculously good. The indoor bar had a chill vibe, but sitting in the sun in mild summer temps is the best option hands down.
Good cocktails and view. However, would have preferred a Luxardo cherry instead of a regular maraschino cherry in the Red Head cocktail. The Whispers Old Fashioned has the Luxardo cherry. The strawberry rhubarb mule was really good. Beautiful view of the floating boardwalk and Coeur d’Alene lake.
Haven and lily were absolutely amazing they’re the best in the biz and helped with everything I needed, they were kind and polite, true professionals! Had an amazing night thanks to them and couldn’t give them enough thanks!
Whispers is such a vibe. The indoor bar is great but the outside seating area is open and is a 10/10 for me. 180* Gorgeous views. The service was a little less desirable. Our waitress was a little underwhelming and snobbish. My favorite will forever be the hot wings and clam chowder.
We came here to have drinks before dinner. We were seated almost immediately after arriving. Service could be improved just a bit… Initially our server took FOREVER to take our order but she also took as long to come back to see if we wanted more drinks. We did not order a second round because it took forever to receive the first round of drinks. However, the drinks were great!
Great scenic view and super service! Waitress: Jessica you rock!! Quick witted, fast and frequent visits to our table and a great personality! Food: Prime rib sliders and calamari were AWESOME! We sat East-facing the lake next to the window overlooking the marina. Beautiful day! comfortable chairs, and we enjoyed 2 hours of chatter mixed with good food and yummy espresso martinis and Spanish coffee! Wonderful visit!
