About Ingredients Cafe

Ingredients Cafe offers outstanding food, service, and atmosphere. Their rigatoni is a must-try, along with the specials that are hard to resist. Pannekoken is available after 4 pm, and live music adds to the experience after 5 pm. The cafe's atmosphere resembles that of a New York City cafe, complete with excellent live music performances. The menu changes regularly, offering delicious options like chicken penne and burgers with caramelized onions. The presentation of the dishes is beautiful, with superb appetizers, main courses, soups, salads, and desserts. Ingredients is a fantastic place to spend a late afternoon or evening on their patio, in the shade, on a summer day. Great food, decent cocktails, and a charming atmosphere make it a favorite spot in White Bear Lake. Visitors praise the food for being consistently awesome, with recent meals like Peas N' Hay 21 Linguine with housemade Italian sausage, sweet peas, caramelized onion, and parmesan cream sauce receiving high marks. Service is often described as top-notch, with some mentioning the owner as a remarkable woman who provides excellent service. From the street, it may seem modest, but inside, it’s a perfect place for a date night or a special meal. Guests have enjoyed the great steaks and fantastic bourbon, noting that few places around here can match the taste and experience Ingredients provides. The restaurant is considered a cute little gem, with many enjoying the variety of dishes and the great service. Several gluten-free options are available, and the overall experience leaves diners eager to return.
