Good eats are never too far away in Missouri. When you’re craving a delicious meal in a one-of-a-kind setting, though, you might have to look a little deeper. Café B-29, a World War II-inspired restaurant in Ozark, Missouri sets itself apart for both its scrumptious selection of dishes and its salute to the Greatest Generation. If you’ve not eaten here yet, put it straight on the top of your Missouri dining bucket list.
The Greatest Generation – which includes those who fought in World War II – has rightfully earned its title, surviving the Great Depression before helping to save the world from the clutches of evil.
Today, as the generation dwindles, we remember them – the men who marched to war and the women who kept America running at home – in a variety of ways. Café B-29, named after the iconic airplane that perhaps defines that period, pays homage to the Greatest Generation.
A step inside this Ozark restaurant offers an inspirational glimpse into military history. The interior is adorned with military memorabilia and, if you’re not a history buff yet, you might just find a spark is lit.
The family-owned and run restaurant, started from scratch in 2016 also dishes up a delightful menu of lunch and dinner dishes, many boasting names that pay tribute to the World War II generation.
Make sure you’re hungry when you visit or prepare to take a doggy bag home because you’ll want to start with a hearty appetizer. From the Tank Nachos to the Potato Bomber Fries, the menu offers something for every taste.
Take a look at the choices in the Mess Hall, too, where you’ll find such tasty sandwiches as the Sloppy Joe, the B-29 Crew’s Buffalo Chicken Sandwich, and the Doughboys Po’Boy.
While you might want an All-American Burger, don’t decide until you’ve perused the Top Brass Meals. The Audie Murphy Pork Steak Dinner, Harrington’s Kansas City Strip, and Frogmen Ahi Tuna all promise to leave you stuffed.
