Club 45 in Eagle River, WI

Back in the fall there was a thread about pizza in the Eagle River area that discussed a few different options. Some people mentioned the deep dish at Club 45 was just like one you get in Chicago and John said he knew the owners back from his days living down there. Well I was passing through the area last night around dinner time and thought I'd stop in and give it a try. It was great! Really had the texture and taste like a true Chicago deep dish. They even have a personal size one that probably would have been the perfect size but I ended up going with the 12" and took half of it home with me. It's right off Hwy 45 on Old 45 just north of Conover, not more than 1/2 mile out of the way. With it being that convenient, I'm sure I'll make a stop there again. Next time I may call ahead to order so they can start cooking it if I'm in a hurry but it worked out great last night. Talked to Dave the owner for a while and he was a real genuine guy. I'm sure some of the other places that were discussed before are good too, but wanted to give a follow-up with my opinion about this one.

you can get a "take and bake" there too. think they take around 40 minutes to cook at home. dave is a real good guy, even though he is a cubs fan.

Dave and his wife Jen are great folks. I went to HS with Dave.

Great to know that they will do take and bake. We are always on our 7 hour pilgrimage to or from S. WI when we pass through and just want to keep the trip as short as possible with a vehicle full of dogs and a 6 year old. So nice to know we can order up, stop in, visit for a bit and then be on our way with an awesome pizza for dinner when we get home!

Awesome, thanks! I will take you up on the offer for sure. Next time you are planning a trip, I will take 2. One just cheese and the other cheese/sausage. Both 12" ers.

Dave is hoping to get up here this spring when things slow down for him, I may just take a trip south too if I can find the time.

Shoot me an e mail so we can work things out!

Thanks!!!!

Was able to resize a photo so I could get it to post.

Here's what you're in for if you order a 12" deep dish!

"Hey, hey hey," [from the Jack Brickhouse days] nothing wrong with Cubs fans, lol.

I thought that was Harrry Carry? not a fan really but I liked the way he said "strike called" when the cubs were at bat- he said it in defiance? like it wasn't really a strike !! very entertaining guy
