What John Joe dislikes about Back Door Cafe:
First foremost!!! This place is NO longer the Back Door Cafe. Dont be fooled by signage. It has changed hands. Now it is Sudsworks. Prices are a joke. $12 for a brat hotdog that is a 6 to 1 in size. $14 for 2 6 oz pieces of battered cod. View all feedback.

I was first impressed by the high level of cleanliness for Covid-19 measures. The service was super friendly and the highlight was definitely the JD chocolate cake.
