Josef’s Cheesecake Finds New Home in Chippewa Falls
19 Sep 2022
News, Chippewa County
Josef’s Cheesecake originally opened at the end of 2019 in downtown Chippewa Falls and since then has only continued to thrive. Less than three years later, Josef’s has moved into a new building it plans to call home for a long time, officially opening its doors on Friday, Sept. 9, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 343 E. Park Ave., across the river from its old location.
Known for its delectable cheesecake cupcakes (and all things cheesecake, really), the family biz’s grand reopening meant a 22-hour work day for owner and chef Nicholas Wiener, the following day easing up some – for a 16-hour day. When asked how he manages to keep going when the pace is that busy, Wiener said his love for cooking and the community makes it the best job.
