Wendy’s Place, conveniently located in beautiful Minong in northwest Wisconsin about halfway between Eau Claire and Superior just off of Highway 53, has something for everyone. Stop in for breakfast, we will be happy to make you anything from the Sportsmen’s Steak & Eggs breakfast to fresh cinnamon rolls; come back later in the day to enjoy our steak, chicken, and shrimp dinners. Take-out is available too!

Quaint little place and glad we made it there on time as it closed at 2:00. Very busy but we were able to find a table and were waited on quickly. The food was served quickly, it came out hot, and was a fair price. The staff were friendly to customers but I don’t think they got on well with each other. Will return again when in the area.

Carrying on a Minong staple that goes back 4-5 decades. Wendy's (Nelson's Cafe) has dominated the Minong diner (food) scene for so long that I don't know what town would do without it? For the last 45 years, several restaurants have come and gone, but this place survives on a great short order menu, pleasant quaint atmosphere, many Flo's, Hazel's, and yes Wendy's, and some great pie choices! In carrying out a tried and true method of selling it to a current employee who understands the food aspect and the people of the area. Wendy was a top waitress, who bought it from the Nelson's, and had now sold it to another current worker turned owner. It's a really special place that survives because of this. The knowledge of running a restaurant in a small town, with all its quirks and traditions, is unique. You get good service (unless someone is having a really, really bad day? Which I have never experienced there, but if you do, leave a good tip and a note telling them everythingis gonna be ok. I bet you money, you'll get the best service you've ever had the next time you go in.), good food, and all the charm a small northern Wisconsin town can muster. Minong is a proud, hearty, robust place. They don't care if you like their local diner. They do, and that's all that matters. It will be here as long as the town is. Every small town has, and needs, a place like this. Where the chatter ranges from wheather to the price of heating oil to the local sports teams, and even to the lies about a fish or buck. It's home, it's good, it's the heartbeat of the town. I'm so glad Wendy gave it to someone else so they can fulfill their dreams of ownership, and the beat goes on.

We went for breakfast before a day of riding on the trails. Portions were large, as were their selections. All the staff were very friendly and gave excellent service. Our food was very good. I had the fudge malt as my breakfast drink and it was the perfect way to start the day (I had coffee earlier).

It's a homey little diner with really sweet staff! Booths and tables are definitely close quarters and my advice is unless you have an hour or more to kill waiting for food, don't go on Sundays. It's obviously a popular local fave but for out of towners it's a long wait, esp with kids.

Stopped in for breakfast the waitress took my credit card to pay. I was charged 23.97 for breakfast. I added 10.00 tip for 33.97. Then later another charge came through for another 10.00. Breakfast was only ok. Not worthy of a 20.00 tip. Dishonest folks there in minong. We won't be back.

I’ve been stopping at Wendy’s Place almost every year on my annual 750 mile trek from Springfield, Illinois, to Itasca County, Minnesota, and it continues to be the only diner I’ll drive 600 miles for. You walk in, and baby, you’re home. Talk about a joint that puts you at ease and fills your belly and your heart. Jessica and Cole are doing a great job. I look forward to seeing them again soon!
