“Ice cream treats
After a rousing game of mini-golf, there is but one thing to do: Refresh with an ice cream cone from Grampa Tony’s. The food, from breakfasts to dinner pizzas, can be enjoyed on a second-floor balcony overlooking the lake. But ice cream is best savored outside, on one of many picnic tables or Adirondack chairs (1-715-747-3911).”

“Wednesday night pizza party
Take a wood-fired pizza fresh from the outdoor oven, add a guitarist strumming ballads, and grab a table among ceramic vases and paintings of Lake Superior rocks. This is the Bell Street Gallery’s Community Pizza Party, and it takes place every Wednesday during the summer. Diners bring their pizza dough and toppings (kits can be purchased at Grampa Tony’s), arrange their pies at a table and watch them bake in the domed oven (5-8 p.m. Wed., bellstgallery.com).”
