PAST
&
PRESENT |
In 1984, Iven Hudalla started a tradition of
fine dining and great service at a restaurant
named “Iven’s on the Bay”, located on North Long
Lake, Brainerd, Minnesota. In 2001, Iven
continued to build on that tradition with the
addition of a “Martini Bar” and Private Banquet
Room. In 2004, Ray and Jean McCabe took over
Iven’s on the Bay and the responsibility of
keeping Iven’s original traditions alive. With
the McCabe’s, not only have the traditions and
practices been retained, but they have also
added new traditions to create new memories for
their guests.
On February 13, 2006, Iven’s on the Bay burned
to the ground as the result of a devastating
fire, which for many was an overwhelming shock.
Many not only saw a building gone, but with it
many memories and good times they had once
enjoyed within its walls. After encountering
some hurdles and setbacks, the rebuilding
commenced and Iven’s on the Bay opened to the
public on August 15, 2006.
Today, Iven’s on the Bay not only continues the
traditions originated by Iven himself, but also
combines them with a fresh-faced approach which
is changing with the times. Iven’s boasts
picture perfect views of idyllic North Long Lake
year round; during the summer months you can
join us for dinner on our deck, docking
your boat on one of our 12 boat slips.
Throughout the year, join us for dinner in our
casual, elegant Dining Room or enjoy one of over
50 martinis in our warm and inviting Martini
Bar. A newly enlarged Banquet Room (our Lakeview
Room) can
accommodate up to 100 guests. During the summer,
we have hosted weddings of up to 200 people
along the shores of North Long Lake.
Iven’s offers the same award winning service
staff and menu you have come to expect over the
past 25 years. Our inventive menu changes with
the seasons to offer the freshest ingredients
and finest dishes available in the area. Our
attentive service staff is here to make sure all
your needs are met. If you haven’t visited us or
maybe you haven’t been since we reopened, come
join us and experience for yourself what
everyone is already talking about… |
