I-73/74 Visitor Center - Northbound
Rest stop
👍👍 This would be the nicest rest area I'd ever visited -- if I hadn't stopped at the Southbound side on the first leg of my trip. As nice as this one is, the other side is amazing.

Tommy's Barbecue House & Catering LLC
Barbecue restaurant
👍👍 Glad we stopped by for lunch! The food was great but the service from our waitress was amazing. I had the pulled BBQ chicken, fried okra, and Brunswick stew. And the peach cobbler (with ice cream of course)
was so delicious. Will definitely stop by next time we are passing by.

River Wild
American restaurant
👍👍 We went here for brunch on Sunday morning. They don't exactly have a brunch menu, but we made it work. Those bison egg rolls are amazing! The portions are large. On a nice day, sit outside! There are propane heaters when it's cooler outside.
