    Default Places to eat in Cuba ?

    Can someone recommend a few places to eat in Cuba? No chain restuarants, please. I'm looking for someplace a local would go to. Would definitely like to try the any local barbeque.

    The Missouri Hick BBQ is supposed to be really good. It's next door to the Wagon Wheel motel. We were in Cuba last Saturday but it was getting late and didn't get a chance to try the BBQ. However, we'll hit the place during Spyderfest.

    Please tell me that's not potato chips and applesauce with your pulled pork.

    Don't they serve beans, coleslaw, or greens?

    Why on earth would you need one of those after 2 PM?

    Obviously you liked the food they served at the BBQ houses while you were down here.
    Very Happy Spyder Ryder!

    Default Places to eat in Cuba, MO

    To answer some questions:

    And Pit Buggy's right. They will take good care of you at Cuba Lakes. They know the Spyders are rydin in.

    In the historic area downtown:

    East Office Bar and Grill is down the street from the Wagon Wheel, and they have food and drinks. They run specials. Allow smoking.

    If you don't mind a ride (Ha), Skippy's down Route 66 to Leasburg is a bar and grill that is open for lunch and dinner and has some good food. They have a nice covered patio. Allows smoking. They have a website.

    Rock Fair Tavern is on Hwy. 19/Franklin, and they have lunch and dinner and are open every day. They have an outdoor patio. Allows smoking.

    MO Hick has good BBQ. They have beans, cole slaw, baked potatoes, baked sweet potatoes--no fried stuff. They also have a good salad. They have dinners and sandwiches. They are not open for breakfast. They serve beer and wine. Good to know if you are staying at the Wagon Wheel Motel next door. Open every day. Frisco's has an outdoor covered porch to eat on--upstairs and downstairs.

    Frisco's where the group ate last year is good: Steak, pasta, seafood, sandwiches. Open for lunch and dinner. Not open Sun. or Monday. Have a full line of drinks and a separate bar. Frisco's has an outdoor patio with fireplace.
    No smoking in the dining room-but there is in the bar.

    Gordoz is the Main Street Cafe and is down the street from Frisco's. It is open for breakfast. It is open every day for dinner and lunch. It has specials, and drinks are available. Has a smoking area. Gordoz also has an outdoor sitting area.

    On Hwy. 19/Franklin The coffee place Java.net is not open Sunday. I will have to check on hours. They have light lunches, soup, sandwiches, etc. You can get specialty coffee drinks, ice cream, and chocolates here.

    Visit this link www.cubamomurals.com/wordpress/2009/05/20-things-to-do-in-cuba-missouri-route-66-mural-city/ for information on things to do in Cuba, MO and links to photos of Frisco's and MO Hick. The list of things to do doesn't mention Spyderfest. We were waiting a press release or flyer before posting it.

    Hope this helps.

    Wow, talk about missing the BIG picture.
    By the way I hate coleslaw and greens but beans are fine as long as you don't have a roommate.

    Thanks, Spydeejane. That's exactly what I was looking for. Double-thanks for adding the smoking info. Living in a non-smoking state, I tend to forget about that when I travel.

    LOL, I'm from Ohio, the home of Bob Evans. You can't swing a dead cat here without hitting one of his restuarants!

    Just remember that you will only have a couple of chances to go out and have dinner on your own. Most days at least one of your meals will be included in you registration ..................what a deal!
