Part of The Turk's Inn & The Sultan Room

The Turk’s Inn was founded in 1934 by George and Isabella Gogian in Hayward, Wisconsin, a small wooded town situated on the Namekagan River. In its 80 years in business, the legendary supper club hosted politicians, cultural luminaries, cross-country ski racers, and vacationers of all stripes who came to enjoy classic cocktails, steaks and Turkish fare in a lush Arabesque setting.

A night at Turk’s was an enchanting affair full of surprises and delights, whether it was an encounter with one of the live peacocks that roamed the grounds or a belly dancer shimmying on a tabletop.

In 2015, upon the passing of Beatrice “Marge” Gogian, the founders’ only daughter, Turk’s closed its doors. It was then that Tyler Erickson and Varun Kataria, long-time patrons, sought to keep the spirit of Turk’s alive. The two took the entire contents of the establishment and moved it to Bushwick, Brooklyn to give the Turk’s Inn a second life and create magical evenings for a new generation of revelers.
