Bad experience...we designed a family bike ride to start at Klondike Park, ride to Augusta, and have lunch at the Brew Co. All good, except the fact that when it came time to order food, they said the kitched was backed up and they would not take orders. You couldn't even get a pretzel. We also noticed other people complaining that they were having to wait to get food. The staff was unapologetic about the situation. It was a beautiful Sunday, seems like they could have prepared for a larger than normal crowd. It would also be nice if they would have had some non prep-time items for sale. We had to ride back on empty stomachs. We eneded up driving home and stopping off at Dairy Queen, which was completely empty...apparently Dairy Queen isn't very popular on Mother's Day.

So you went to a brewery and are complaining about the food? This place has the best beer within 200 miles. Several have won awards. They have the best rootbeer we have ever had, and my grandma used to make her own. Next time, pack a lunch.

Cafe Bella a bit further north in town could've made a big difference in your lunch.

Just hate it when someone uses this forum to knock a restaurant, without saying a word about their family bike ride and bike experiences along the trail.
Rachel from Joplin- on 05/30/2011 10:24 PM
I went there on Mothers Day and it did take a long time to get my food, but it was CRAZY busy! When you go to seasonal businesses during peak times you kind of have to expect to wait. It is just like going to a restaurant that is full and you having to wait a while before they seat you. There are no walls @ that place so there is no capacity. I agree with the gentleman above, next time pack a lunch!
DardenneGal from St. Louis on 06/05/2011 09:06 AM
This is one of our favorite spots to eat/drink on the KATY. This has never happened to us and we've been there on many a busy day. I highly recommend eating there but they also let you bring in food which is nice. So now you know to pack a lunch or at least have some snacks with you when you ride on a holiday weekend!
Kevin from Overland Park on 06/06/2011 08:14 AM
On Saturday, my wife and I stopped around noon time. I was leery of stopping because of the prior comments I've read. It was very busy with a lot of bikers there. When we walked up it was a little bit confusing; no hostess or any employees around. After a few minutes, we figured out you seat yourself and order your food and drink up at the bar. When your food was ready, your buzzer went off and you picked up your own food. Both the beer and the food was good, however, there was not any service to speak of, it was pretty much self serve. Even though it was very hot Saturday to sit outside, the place was nice. I would recommend this place; you just need to have the proper expectations (I can see why a first time visitor might not come away impressed).
Deb V on 06/13/2011 07:42 PM
We agree, self serve...If they offer and advertise food and it is an eating establishment I will not "pack a lunch", no matter how good the beer is. Also, they keep irregular hours, so do not plan on them being open, they open when they feel like it.

Quit crying about food on a bike forum...
Deb V on 06/17/2011 05:30 PM
food, as a matter of fact, is quite important on a bike trip. We plan our trip around camping and food in fact! Those who come in from out of state need to be able to count on some of these places being open when they say they will be open.
Anonymous on 06/23/2011 03:02 PM
A lot of people plan their day on the Katy as an event not just a bike ride. I can understand their disappointment if the stop they planned to have a meal at is unable to accommodate them.
Anonymous on 06/23/2011 10:59 PM
These are trail dives,beer joints,small operator places. I am always glad to just find them open to get a cold drink and and some Cheetos. Anything else is a plus. If you are counting on food to be the high light of your event then I think you are missing what the wonderful Katy trail is all about.
BikerBoy from Edwardsville, IL on 10/03/2011 11:48 AM
Went to the Augusta Brewery on Saturday. Seems the bikers arrive in waves, but they certainly could be better staffed. They should have a "beer only" line; otherwise you might have to wait 15-20 minutes in line to order a beer. The food was very good and not overpriced.
Bikers and Cyclists on 10/09/2011 10:01 AM
BBoy, you should know Defiance and Augusta and all points around are biker country especially on weekends. I adjust my rides around those busy weekends stops. I have stopped a few times at ABC during the week but even it took a little wait to get service. Katy laid back is the best time to wind down. It's all fun.

Cathy from Jefferson City on 09/05/2011 11:58 PM
Jefferson City part I:
We have plenty to offer. I'll only discuss places that may be able to handle a party of 10.
Paddy Malone's, on W. Main (close to south end of new bike/pedestrian bridge over MO. River) has burgers, and other food. It's an Irish pub which is why we go there. Across High St. from the Capitol is Arris Pizza, a Jeff City landmark.
Madison's Restaurant, on Madison St., is another Jeff City landmark, excellent food. Across the street is one of my favorite bars, Gumbo Bottoms. No food, but nice place for a drink.
To be continued....
Cathy from Jefferson City on 09/06/2011 12:05 AM
Jefferson City part II:
J Pfenney's Sports Grill & Pub is 217 E. High. This is a new place in an old building (used to be Mike's Corner Pocket). Check out their facebook page. They don't take reservations, but you might enjoy having you dinner and watching a game there.
In the same vicinity you'll find Mortimer Kegley's and Bones. I don't know for sure if Mortimer's can handle 10, but I think Bones can. You enter Bones off an alley (we actually call our alleys "Ways" here in the great capital of the great state of Missouri).
Ok, the best of Jefferson City dining is yet to come in part III....
Cathy from Jefferson City on 09/06/2011 12:12 AM
Jefferson City Part III:
Ok, so let's get to the East side of Jefferosn City. Oh, wait, I forgot Sapphire's, on Monroe St. at the top of the Double Tree Hotel. Very very nice restaurant. Prices are kind of high, but the food and the view are excellent. We love going there.
Ok, now on to the East side: at 900 E. High you'll find O'Donohue's. Again, one of my favorites. Great food. Call ahead so they'll be ready for you. It's not a big restaurant, but they can handle a party of 10. We love the food. It's in a building over 100 years old, an old general store, beautifully restored, and is on the National Register of Historic Places.
Around the corner on Ash St. you'll find Prison Brews. It's a micro brewery, they serve very good food, their pizza is my favorite.
At the corner of E. High and Ash you'll find the Mission. It's a bar that focuses on having local bands. There's no food, but it's a great place to end the evening.
Oh my, I'll have to continue this in part IV, what am I to do? I can't help it, there's just too many wonderful restaurants in Jefferosn City.
Cathy from Jefferson City on 09/06/2011 12:18 AM
Jefferson City Part IV:
Ok, I'm doing Part IV, then I'm going to bed, maybe:
Now, on the Southside of Jefferson City, what we call Old Munichburg (on other side of Whitton Expressway) you'll find the Ecoo Lounge at the corner of Dunklin and Jefferson. This is the place my husband and I go the most because the food is great and so are the prices. Call ahead so they'll be ready for your party of 10. They renovated the place a couple of years ago, upgraded the menue, and it's a wonderful place.
And of course, the most important place you must go to in Jefferson City is Central Dairy, for ice cream. It's on the southside. I'm not going to give you the address. Just ask anyone in Jefferson City where it is and they'll tell you how to get there.
Ok, ok, so I'm going to do a Part V. I can't help it.
Cathy from Jefferson City on 09/06/2011 12:26 AM
Jefferson City Part V:
Come on! What are you talking about, "dinner in Jefferson City." Give me a break. You need to spend a couple of days here.
Talk among yourselves. I'll give you a topic: What to do in Jefferson:
1. Tour the Capitol. One of the most beautiful capitols in the country. They spent over $1 million on the art in the early 1900s. They do tours I think every hour, 7 days a week.
2. Schedule a tour of the Missouri State Pennitentiary. Contact our Convention and Visitors Bureau to schedule. Really, if you do anything in Jefferson City, this should be it.
3. Go to Lincoln University and see the Soldiers Memorial Plaza. It is moving, it is inspiring, it is very very special.
4. Take a leisurely walk in our downtown, check out our gift shops, coffee shops, bars, or just sit on the benches and enjoy the day.
5. See the new federal courthouse over by the old prison. We're very proud of this.
6. Go dancing at The Mission.
7. Play Bocce Ball at Prison Brews.
Ok, I'm done.

Abigails is a top contender as well as the bistro at the winery in Rocheport. Madisons and Aris in Jeff City are both close to ride too from the trail. In Hermann, the restaurant at Stone Hill winery is good as well as Simons on the riverfront downtown.
Lisa from Belton, MO on 09/07/2011 09:16 AM
Our group of 12 rode from Columbia to Hermann in June. Our first overnight was in Jeff City. We had a fun night at Paddy Malone's downtown. It was a beautiful night and we sat outside on the patio. We had the best waiter EVER! And he kept us supplied with our favorite beverages all night. In Hermann, we enjoyed the Barrel Inn. Good food and drink and friendly people. On our return trip to Jeff City we had dinner at Arris Pizza. Superb! Delicious greek style pizza and great beverages and wonderful service. Both restaurats are easy to get to from the Bike Trail Head and the pedestrian / bike bridge across the river is amazing and fun to ride across! I highly recommend riding into the city just so you can see the river and cross the bridge! Enjoy your trip!
Anonymous on 09/07/2011 11:22 AM
Sounds like you know whereyou'll be staying at night.
Other eating possibilities include the Thai Kitchen (outdoors) at Cooper's Landing near Easley
Dotty's Cafe in Hartsburg
Trailside Cafe in Rhineland (4-miles west of Hermann)and
several places in Hermann itself where the Oktoberfest will be going on that month. You might or might not want to miss that depending on your objectives.
Personally, I like the countrified food at the Trailside (Rhineland) or the down-to-earth Deutche food at the Rivertown on 1st Street in Hermann (first street after crossing the bridge). But the wineries there, like the Stone Hill, will offer upscale Deutche dinners. Enjoy.

Did I mention you could get a tattoo in Jefferson City? They changed our ordinance a couple of years ago and we now have tattoo palors all over the place. Oh and the person asking about how to get across the river at Jefferson City, see my comments earlier in this thread about things (other than getting tattoos) to do places to stay and where to eat in the great capital of the great state of Missouri.

Looks like Jefferson City has a LOT to offer. We plan to stop there for lunch/breakfast a couple times. Are there secure places to park bicycles at Prison Brews, Arris Pizza, etc? The Penitentiary tour sounds great if we can secure our bikes somewhere.

You might be careful to find out the local laws regarding this. It can be easy to run afoul of such things - I'm thinking this because I did read a couple of stories about bicycles being "detained" over chaining a bike to a street sign. Obstructing a public right-of-way or something like that.
Just be careful and be sure to cable lock to something solid and out of the way and you should be fine.

Lunch & breakfast. Hmm. You might try Ricks in the airport terminal. Fabulous buffet reported there several times; can easily handle 10. It's on the east-west road just north of the MO-River bridge and pedestrian pathway, just east of that 54/63-Hwy. Fried chicken and ham!
Darrell from Jefferson City, MO. on 09/15/2011 09:41 PM
Don't know what your plans are Beth, or for anyone else, but if you are in or near Pilot Grove at breakfast, lunch or dinner I suggest you visit Becky's Burgers & Cones. They are just off the trail, half block from the trail head, look to the right you can see the back of their yellow building. They have excellent food at a very reasonable price, and plenty of room for 10 to dine inside or out. Not just burgers and cones.
I give directions because I had ridden to or through Pilot Grove numerous times but didn't know where Becky's was, so did not go there. Have always heard they had really good food, so this past week I decided to find it, I had been riding past it but didn't see the sign.
Beth from Denver on 10/05/2011 06:44 AM
Ok, we're half-way through our six day ride and here are some places we've enjoyed so far. Kehde's Barbeque in Sedalia (which seemed to be the only place in town open on Sunday night) was great--good food and great service, very accommodating for our large group. Becky's Burgers & Cones in Pilot Grove was a good stop for lunch. And we enjoyed both Paddy Malone's (good cold beer after our day's ride) and Arris Pizza (good salads, Greek food & pizza). It's really nice when a place is willing to do separate checks for a group. As our waitress at Arris put it "with technology it's easy to do that" but some places still don't want to go there.

Yes, you can leave your vehicle overnight at the state park trailheads. It doesn't require permission to do so.....that's what they're for either day or night use. I've left my car at several trailheads and have never had an issue.
Jim from St Thomas on 10/06/2011 01:02 PM
I would be hesitant to leave my car overnight at the JC trailhead. Our group has had several cars broken into when parked there after dark. If I was wanting to park at JC I would use one of the parking lots at the Capitol complex just across the bridge. They are patroled by the Capitol Police.

We just rode the entire Katy Trail and Started in Machens. We have high end road bikes with thicker tires and had no problems from Machens on the entire trail. The path was less traveled, but in great shape to St Charles. The trailhead is a little tricky to find, but once you cross the tracks go left and the trail head is right around the trees. The road getting there is very rocky, so it is not rideable on a a road bike.

We have tried to eat in Defiance 3 times the last 3 years and have given up. :( One time we were able to give the waitress our order but after a half hour to an hour we still did not get our food. Our order got lost so we left and ate protein bars. This place has since closed. The other 2 times we waited what seemed forever to be waited on and gave up. Once again we ate our protein bars and went on our way. What is up? We will never stop to try eat in Defiance again. Three strikes you're out!

One of our best B&B experiences ever. Nice room in historic (but well-maintained) building in center of town. Owner Kent is friendly, helpful, knowledgable -- a real local. Helped us with a bike problem when we arrived wet and muddy after a long rainy ride. Plan on a full day layover in Hermann to enjoy the town and winerys.

We're looking for a cosy, not swanky B&B in the Hermann area. Biking and camping from Clinton on through and thought it would be fun to visit the wineries and check out a B&B in Hermann. Anyone else find anything on the more homey, not fancy, criteria?

We've stayed at Birk's Gasthaus and the Secret Vine.....both are close to downtown, on the level, adequate and met the need.

Highly recommend Capt Wohlt. Three(?) buildings, all really historic and well-done. Well-kept, good food. Owner Kent is friendly, helpful, knowledgable. Helped us with problems after a long ride on a rainy day. Now almost a "personal friend." Plan on a layover day in Hermann to enjoy the town and winery.
