Become one with nature while you mow down some good eats around the Chippewa Valley. For the last seven years, Cowboy Jack’s has ranked No. 1 for outdoor dining: Its spacious upper and enclosed patio offersbeautiful views of the Eau Claire River. In second place is Together Farms where patrons can enjoy grass-fed burgers or multi-course farm-to-table meals while surrounded by the picturesque views of their Mondovi farm. In third place is Wissota High Shores Supper Club (17985 County Hwy. X, Chippewa Falls) with both an exquisite menu and exquisite views of Lake Wissota from the patio and dining room. —Sawyer Hoff
