Sometimes we drive where the road takes us, and other times we have a specific destination in mind – like this rural restaurant in Wyoming, Rhode Island, where flavorful food, a chill vibe, and impressive service will make every mile we drive oh-so-worth it.
Even if you're not the biggest fan of long drives, you might just change your mind - at least this one time - after that first scrumptious bite at Wood River Bar & Grill in Wyoming.

That laidback vibe is sure to put you right at ease, especially if it's your first visit and you're not really sure what to expect. Sit back, relax, and order a cold drink while you browse the menu.
If you're a fan of comfort food done right, you've come to the right place. Wood River wings, chicken tenders, and loaded potato scoops are all good choices if you're ordering an appetizer.
When it comes to the main menu, you'll find a range of American classics - from juicy burgers piled high with all of your favorite toppings to Philly cheese steak wraps.
Don't worry if you have a meat-free diet. You'll find several veggie options on the menu, including the veggie burger and the veggie wrap.
If you're in a meaty kind of mood, cut into one of the Rhode Island restaurant's popular steaks. Whether you opt for the New York strip or the surf and turf, a delightful pairing of Angus sirloin and baked stuffed shrimp, you'll leave full.
Kiddos have their very own menu with a half dozen kid-approved dishes, from chicken nuggets and grilled cheese to hot dogs and spaghetti and meatballs.
