Looking to slow things down and soak up that classic Lake atmosphere? The Blue Cat Lounge is a go-to spot. Located inside the iconic Alhonna Resort—the inspiration for the hit show Ozark—this staple has been a hub for good times since 1985.
Known as Bobbers for 56 years, the Blue Cat has nostalgic charm in this modern age. Inside, you’ll find cozy booths, a pool table, and a long wood-accented bar that feels like the kind of spot you’d gather for a class reunion.
The Blue Cat Lounge is open to all—whether you’re boating in from the 8 Mile Marker or driving up to 677 Outer Drive in Lake Ozark. The restaurant is currently open Thursday to Sunday!
With the weather warmed up, the Blue Cat will soon shift into full summer mode. Follow them on Facebook for live entertainment this season!Â
Guests lounging by the pool can grab food and drinks without leaving the water scene, thanks to the outdoor bar window. Whether you’re enjoying the view from the patio or cheering on a game inside, there’s no wrong way to soak up the good vibes here.
Of course, no visit is complete without something from the updated menu, which brings back fan favorites while adding new options. Here's some suggestions for your next visit:
To EatÂ
Chicken & Waffles
A new standout on the menu, this dish combines sweet and savory in the best way. A large, fluffy waffle topped with butter is the base for crispy fried chicken that packs just a hint of heat. It’s a great way to start the day.
Fish Basket
Light, flaky white fish meets crispy, seasoned batter in this Lake-day favorite. Served with fries, a side of sweet-and-tangy vinegar-based coleslaw, and classic tartar sauce, it’s the kind of basket that hits just right.
Italian Beef RollÂ
Like a French dip, but maybe better. This hefty hoagie is loaded with thinly sliced Italian beef and melty mozzarella in a golden, crusty roll—served with a side of au jus for dipping. It’s tender, cheesy, and satisfying enough to share… if you’re feeling generous.
To Drink
Bloody MaryÂ
Loaded with classic garnishes like lime, celery, pickle, and olives, this Bloody Mary is as much a snack as it is a drink. Bold, briny, and built to cure those morning ailments or get the day started.
Lickety Split—in a Souvenir Cup
A fruity blast of Cruzan Coconut and Mango Rum, Banana Liqueur, orange and pineapple juice, and a splash of grenadine. Served in a cheeky souvenir cup that might just remind you of A Christmas Story’s leg lamp.
Piña Colada
Frozen, creamy, and ready for poolside sipping. Want to kick it up a notch? Add a Screwball peanut butter whiskey floater for a nutty twist.
Darlene's Killer Lemonade
This one’s got a bite—just like its namesake. A mix of Deep Eddy Lemon Vodka, Blue Curacao, lemonade, and a splash of club soda, it’s bold and impossible to forget. Darlene Snell would approve.
Whether you’re grabbing breakfast before a day on the water, lounging by the pool with a drink in hand, or soaking up live music on a Saturday afternoon, The Blue Cat Lounge is the place to be.
It's more than a restaurant—it’s an Ozark tradition.
