Waterside Bar and Grill
Restaurant
😐 I’m not a person to typically leave a bad review but I was very disappointed after today’s visit. I brought a large group of 7 high school students and 4 adults. The restaurant was very quick to accommodate the group during lunchtime hours. The food came out quickly and I felt everything tasted wond...

Bunker Hill Covered Bridge
Bridge
👍👍 We took this as a quick break from I-40. Literally minutes off the highway. A very short walk from a small parking area to the bridge. There were other trails. However, we were only there to rest, stretch our legs, and ease on down the road.

Roadside Grill
Diner
👍👍 I see a lot of bad reviews on this place, but I have no idea why. The burgers are a touch pricey, but that's the cost of goods nowadays and the burgers they sell here are HUGE. I got a double, and I could barely finish it!
The food is excellent, it's hard to find a great diner-style burger. The cri...

Golden Coast
Chinese restaurant
🫤 While their food is pretty good, they have upgraded our portions to large every time we have ordered without asking. Unfortunately we don’t order there often enough to remember this trick and correct them. So we have decided to boycott them from now on. It’s totally worth the extra 5 min drive to go...
