Eureka Springs Eats
-
Ermilio’s - Italian, small home that is converted to a restaurant, very good. Since it is small, a large group could be a problem and the last I checked, they do not take reservations.

-
Gaskin Cabin Steakhouse - known for their prime rib - the cabin was built around 1855

-
Rocking Pig Saloon, a biker bar with a wood fired pizza oven - love their chicken fried Filet Mignon

-
Mud Street Cafe - known for homemade breakfast pastries - their full breakfast is good

-
Myrtle Mae’s - Local ground grits from the War Eagle Mill, good breakfast, lunch is ok

-
Filling station - Breakfast Buffet, quick in and out - not bad, use to be better. Was sold 2 years ago and they still don’t have it worked out yet but it is still a local favorite and it is right up the street from the Regency on Van Buren.
Food On the Road
-
Low Gap Cafe - roads to and from very interesting, CIA trained, Nick came for a visit and stayed

-
Mather Lodge - Petit Jean State Park - views are breathtaking and the meals are pretty good, large dinning room able to accept large groups with ease.

-
Ozark - Rivertown BBQ - their BBQ could be served in Texas, don’t need to say anything else

-
Oark & Oark General Store - built in 1890 - known for their burgers and pies - During Bikes Blues & BBQ rally, the wait can be as much as 4 hours to get in. The road to and from is what it is all about. Hwy 215 south out of Oark eats a number of bikes every year.

-
Jasper - Ozark Cafe - decent place to eat
-
Jasper - 7 miles south on Hwy 7 - the Cliff House Inn - overlooking the Arkansas Grand Canyon, decent meals, love their red beans and corn bread - this is another place during BB&B that has a long wait to get in.

-
Kingston, Arkansas -Grandpa’s Flea Mkt. - junction Hwy 21 & 74 - road in and out are interesting - 3 big buildings full of stuff.

-
Roaring River State Park, Mo. - helmet required state - nice ride to and from.
-
Pig Trail scenic byway - it was a little the worse for wear in September but it is still a good ride
