The Way It Was is the Way It Is.

General Info
Walking in the door of the Back 40 Junction is like stepping back in time. The main dining room holds a priceless Tiffany chandelier. Fascinating artifacts decorate the walls and ceilings, including whaler's lamps, authentic Burma Shave highway signs and oil lamps once owned by Carol Lombard. You'll see the area's largest collection of sculptures by John Rogers, dating from the mid-1800s. Antique Barnum and Bailey Circus posters adorn the walls of our Nickel Plate Pub, which also houses copper brewing equipment from Fort Wayne's Centlivre Brewery. Please be sure to call us to make reservations. We do not take reservations over email. Also please note that we only hand write gift certificates. If you are from out-of-town and need a gift certificate, please give us a call. We can send it to you in the mail. Please stop by, we would love to see you!

I absolutely love this place!!! Growing up in Decatur the Back 40 is a taste of home. Throughout the years the staff have always been polite, and on their game. Food is excellent and the pricing is very fair for what u are eating on top of all you can eat buffet. I will continue to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, and even enjoy casual lunches at this wonderful restaurant

My husband and I go thru Decatur every 4 to 8 weeks on our way to and from a church in Anderson. It is our 1/2 way point. We do not miss the chance to eat at the Back 40. Staff has always been very courteous and seem to go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need. The food is fabulous. Everything always seems very fresh and the rolls are to die for. Go hungry! You will want to try so much of everything there, and there is no way that you can try everything without coming away completely satisfied.
