The Back When Cafe
Telephone 715.848.5668, (http://www.backwhencafe.c...). nothing but the freshest ingredients, organically and locally grown whenever possible. no 'canned' sauces or cheap ingredients such as 'powdered' spices or 'imitation' herbs. to provide you with the best dining experience possible and we believe this starts with fresh wholesome foods. in 2003 we completed a $500,000 expansion to include a 2nd dining room, an outdoor dining area and a new kitchen. the staff strives to create a warm, friendly, relaxed and cozy atmosphere and we consider ourselves as a gathering place among friends. the architecture is an ecclectic blend of the old and new with a touch of northwoods flair.
