Maverick Smokehouse
Restaurant
👍 Not a bad little BBQ joint. Ribs could've been a little more tender but flavorful. Brisket tacos were pretty tasty as well. Seems customers come from miles away and I do mean MILES away to get food from here. They support locally so another upside.

Cabin Fever Coffee (Downtown)
Coffee shop
👍 This place was pretty cool. The batista was patient and willing to explain some of the menu items. Drinks and food make out fairly quickly. Restroom is single person use and was kept clean. Whole place was clean and quiet with alot of stuff to look at on the walls.
The parking was surely limited,...

The Rumor Mill Cafe
Restaurant
🫤 The people here ignored me and my girlfriend. They only ever came to ask about food in drinks no casual conversation like everyone else gets. Both of us ordered a Big Rumor. Bacon was almost raw, hard sausage patty, raw eggs only thing cooked was pretty much the edge of the eggs, hard potatoes. I or...

La Jaliscience Mexican Groceries

Fired Stone Tavern
Pizza restaurant
👍👍 The desk clerk at my hotel recommended this place, so off I went. I am from CT where thin crust pizza is the norm. My server Baille said to tryI the Detroit style pepperoni pizza. And it was excellent. Great crust with some crisp on the bottom and a light airy upper. Very tasty sauce with just the...

Eric's Ice Cream Factory
Ice cream shop
👍 I like this place. Their ice cream is quite good and the food is great and well priced. The only downside is that the ice cream can be a bit pricey and there isn't much of a small size for little ones. It feels like it just goes medium to mini, even if they're titles don't match those descriptions.

Dad's Dairy Depot
Fast food restaurant
😐 It’s ice cream and you get lots of it for the money. There’s more ice cream places around here than you can shake a stick at and this one seems to be closed most of the time. It’s good though if you can get some. I think it’s better than Eric’s.

Yamato Steakhouse of Japan
Steak house
😐 Food is good but a bit pricey for the portions. They need to open the dining area up for a more profitable business. Waiting 45 mins for takeout no matter how good the food is makes the experience a bit of a let down

They wet the boards hourly, they make sure the wood is good sticking condition, and they have quality axes. Not just some you...
