CHEERS!
WHAT'S BCSC?
SLOW DOWN, EAT UP, & CONNECT!
BCSC invites queer people slow down, eat up, and connect through fun and approachable dining so they can feel seen, valued, and cared for. It started as a way for our proprietor Julian to scratch their itch to entertain and serve others while expressing memories of their working-class Wisconsin roots through re-imagined ingredients and flavors, leading to memorable creations such as scratch-made "cool ranch Doritos" and gluten-free fried chicken.
But, BCSC has evolved into a way to nourish and strengthen community. Through multiple styles of service BCSC creates authentically welcoming environments that lower the stakes it takes to meet new people and build strong relationships. Clubs are designed with a queer experience in mind to instill confidence, resilience, and belonging in each person who takes a seat around our table. Do you have to be queer? Nope! You do have to understand our intention and follow the community agreements that our members have put together. We believe that food can bring so many different communities together!
But you know, don't take our word for all of this! Read on to see what some of our members have said about us, and damn, does it make us blush!

“BCSC is honestly one of the highlights of my social calendar. Julian is a culinary genius, serving one impeccable dish after the next. Between the warm environment, hilarious stories, and tasty grub, I am firmly convinced that BCSC is one of the best underground gems that this city has to offer.”
“It was such a fun experience, the food and drinks were amazing. The main course was definitely my favorite with the new onion grits and potato chip fried chicken (amazballs!), although the blueberry poptart/hand pie was equally amazing. Definitely hope to attend future events and plan to bring friends! Thank you again!”
“There truly are no words to express what you experience while attending a Blue Collar Supper Club event without just going; but these dinners are so damn good that I’m sure as hell going to try…
Blue Collar Supper Club is a communal haven that harkens back to a time when every meal was a chance to slow down, share, and connect. From the moment you cross the threshold, you feel welcomed, accommodated (Celiac here!), and oh-so taken care of. Not only does Julian thoughtfully and beautifully craft each course to be the best thing you’ve ever tasted, they openly and graciously share stories to accompany (and that inspired!) each dish. You will laugh, you will feel all the feels, and you will always leave, belly full, and grinning from ear to ear.
Blue Collar Supper Club creates a space for complete strangers to enjoy a wonderful meal paired with delightful cocktails, share their own stories, and leave as kindred spirits/dear friends. If you haven’t gone yet, you are sincerely missing out on one of the finest hidden gems of the twin cities. The food is beyond incredible and the experience unparalleled.”
