Are you hungry, Kansas? Here’s a few of our favorite hometown Kansas restaurants that we’ve been thinking about. We think any restaurant can be a hometown restaurant if they have enough care and friendly service. Homestyle food is just too good to narrow down to one spot! These restaurants also aren’t in any sort of order, so no worries about who we think is best. Honestly, it’s too hard to choose just one. Have you been to all 10 of these spots before? If you haven’t, you’re surely missing out.
1. Beaumont Hotel - Beaumont, KS
Not only is this hotel also an RV park and restaurant, it's also a small airport! Well, there's at least a runway. You can drive in or fly in, and enjoy a meal most Kansans couldn't pass up.
2. Prairie Nut Hut - Altoona, KS
Though I personally don't come for the mountain oysters, we hear they're good and keep people coming back for more. However, the onion rings and giant sandwiches are a real tasty meal.
3. Cozy Inn - Salina, KS
If you don't like mustard and onions, we can't in good conscience recommend Cozy Inn to you. However, if you're not afraid of burgers so strong they make your car smell like dinner, we've got a bag of them fresh and ready for you here in Salina.
4. Gebhardts Chicken Dinners - Mulberry, KS
Have you heard of this little chicken spot? Whether you like your chicken fried or with noodles, you're in for a hearty country style meal that won't leave you hungry.
5. Dagwood's Cafe - Kansas City, KS
This comfy cafe is a home away from home. Breakfast is their best time of day, but we haven't tried anything here we didn't love. When you're looking for good food and family, why not call this cafe home?
6. Bobos Drive In - Topeka, KS
Bobo's is a burger place first and foremost, but we never get tired of their baskets. If you're here on time, make sure to snag a slice of pie a la mode to round off your meal! It's one of the best in the state, if you ask us.
7. Strate's Country Kitchen - Kinsley, KS
This country kitchen is all about good simple food and friendly Kansas service. If you love a good breakfast or a great burger, we think this is a solid spot to stop at.
8. Dutch Country Cafe - Garnett, KS
If you've dined around Kansas and enjoy Amish style homemade foods, this one's for you. We love all things homemade, and all things covered in gravy, like their signature open faced hot beef sandwich.
9. Meridy's - Russell, KS
If you haven't heard about Meridy's yet, you're missing out on a fantastic steak. There's more than enough to eat on every plate, and the steaks are not only huge, but delicious.
10. Bite Me BBQ - Wichita, KS
Speaking of meat, we think Bite Me BBQ is another great spot that values the carnivore in all of us. Not only do they make amazing BBQ, but their bloody marys are a meal all their own. Just look at everything stacked up top!
