Hand Crafted Food & Beverage Using Fresh Ingredients
Welcome to the Tower Cafe, where family roots and a passion for quality come together in the heart of downtown Wausau. Born from a simple idea of quality, everything you order is brewed, baked, or made fresh with thoughtfully sourced ingredients. Every visit is a chance to experience exceptional service and genuine community. See you soon!
No Preservative Bagels Direct from New York
Quality is a great start but, we were in search of a bagel that made a difference and we hit a home run with these! We partnered with a bakery directly out of New York City that produces one of the freshest bagels in the market. These zero preservative bagels are made fresh to order and take a plane ride directly to our cafe so we can serve them at peak freshness to our customers.
Not only are they fresh and delicious but, these bad boys are huge! They come in weighing over 5 ounces compared to a standard bagel averaging 3 ounces. We carry 15 different flavors with all of the favorites plus a few funky ones to boot. We have heard amazing feedback from our customers stating, "they just hit different."
Always fresh, toasted to order, and served with 10 different toppings to choose from.
No Suger Added, Real Fruit Smoothies
Tower Cafe offers a smoothie line that is sure to hit your taste buds just right. We use all fruit smoothie puree bases, add fresh greek yogurt, and real fruit to every smoothie we offer. No sugar added here. These are always made fresh to order and are delivered with a smile.
If you are looking to replace a meal, these are a perfect substitution. Every smoothie has the ability to add 30 grams of protein, super greens, or chia seeds for the added benefit of these supplements. They are kind of like a potato chip, nobody can just have one. Watch for seasonal smoothie flavors entering the menu soon.
Local Artists
In July of 2025, Tower Cafe launched an art campaign to call on local artists to display their work to gain visibility and recognition of their talents and, oh my gosh, did they reply. We currently have around a dozen artists contributing work in the cafe. Some just want to illustrate their talents while others have made their work available for purchase. We host everything from photography, to paintings, to stained glass pieces and so much more. We also plan to create a "kids corner" where local students can contribute pieces that they have created in a special section of the cafe.
