Restaurants

The Great Rivers & Routes region is serving up great dining options daily from locally owned and operated gems who have perfected secret, closely guarded recipes for salads, fried chicken, egg rolls, pies and more.

A mouth-watering, beautifully prepared steak and a bottle of wine with a significant other. A juicy flame-grilled cheeseburger and crispy French fries with an ice-cold beer and a group of good friends. A taste of authentic international flavor paired with great conversation.

Please check with individual restaurants for hours of operations and additional health and safety guidelines.

The region is rich with scenic wineries, lively bars and pubs, quiet coffee shops and sweets-filled ice cream shops and candy stores.

Breakfast, lunch, dinner and dessert, the range of options available to diners in the area is second to none. Whether walking from your hotel or looking to go out of your way to hit a hidden gem off the beaten path, your decision is easy – and certainly tasty.
