    I did look and didn't find a thread in this vein. I thought I would start one, IF their is one that's old, sorry I didn't see it.

    I got sick and tired of eating Denny's, Iron Skillet and the assortment of fastfood at most Truck Stops, so started looking for other places we could eat, GOOD food. Problem of course for most reading this is that 53" pain in the back of your tractor, It just doesn't want to fit in most car spaces and parking along the road isn't alway's possible.

    Soo this is more for the "Restaurants with truck parking" than Truck stops with good food, because that really has been covered.
    Add your own, even a McD's with parking or Hardee's with Parking ( which my husband loves for breakfast).

    My contribution will be Nick's Bar-B-Q & Catfish in Carlisle AR Ex183 I-40.
     
    RERM Thanks this.

    Just drop your trailer and go where you want. That's what i been doing of course I let the fuel desk know. This week I dropped my trailer twice.

    I know just how you feel. TA, Pilot, and all the rest of the corp truck stops all have food that is less than $13 on the menu and none of it is worth eating.

    Get a good pair of walking shoes, forget the cowboy boots and park behind a Lowes or a Home Depot. Most of the time there is something around those places within walking distance like a AppleBee's, Chili's or something.

    I've been robbed twice.. not comfortable about dropping my trailer on unknown places anymore..

    good idea! still, you can't walk more than 4 blocks away, anything longer than that and you're victim of weather, time.. too early, restaurants are closed, too late, they're closed as well

    Did you lock your trailer or did they steal the whole thing?
