Old-line LF institution that - unlike Lake Forest’s stodgy private clubs ( Onwentsia , Knollwood and perriferal Exmoor and that other place in lake bluff Shore Acres ( where the decades old CaddyShack schtiche of blind elitism ad absurdiio comes true, The lantern manages to deliver a simple yet robust array of stiff drinks and a cut above pub grub. I can’t speak for the more 5 o’clock weekend family attendance to show young trust fund enfants Buffy and Biff how to order a burger, so I can say weeknights cater first to the after work crowd followed by the Divorceds and happily married octogenarians and then until boysterious LF College preppies descend to learn the hard way what a hangover feels like b. The service headed by Dan is superb.

My daughter and I went to the Lantern of Lake Forest for lunch this past Saturday and, unfortunately, we will never return. We waited 45 minutes for the Shepherd's Pie (which was utterly disgusting: a fatty salt bomb) and for my "Reuben" sandwich, which looked and tasted like bagged meat. Forget about getting the "homemade chips" ... I had a pile of commercial chips on my plate. I was going to let our meal pass without taking the time to post a review, but this place is so bad that I would be doing a public disservice if I failed to post one.
