Things to do in Morrilton
1. Mather Lodge
Overall Ratings
4 based on 252 reviews
Enjoy a delicious meal in the rustic warmth of Mather Lodge's main dining room. Large windows frame the view of rugged Cedar Creek Canyon, scenery highlighted each evening by a dramatic sunset. A meeting room (50-person capacity) that can also accommodate small banquets is nearby. This recently renovated portion of Mather Lodge mirrors the 1930s Adirondack-style architecture of the original portions of this historic treasure that were built by the Civilian Conservation Corps, and expanded by the Works Progress Administration. The main dining room seats up to 104 persons. The restaurant is open daily.

Friendly, helpful staff. Excellent service. Petit Jean Swiss cheeseburger topped w/ green chiles, mushrooms and onions - juicy and yum. Hubby knew from previous visits the fried chicken liver entree with veggies was just what he wanted.
Whether we are camping at the park or we drive up from Little Rock for the day (Petit Jean State Park is one of our most favorite places in AR), we plan for a meal at the restaurant at Mather Lodge. Breakfast is great. Lunch and dinner menu offerings are varied. Try their signature chicken entree or sandwich - chicken saltimbocca - very good.

Pulled off of I-40 for fuel, spotted the Blue Diamond across the road with many service and contractor vehicles in the lot. Usually a good sign, and this time it certainly was. Wonderful southern service. Good choice of food from burgers etc. to plate lunches. Had the hamburger steak plate and it was great. Green beans had just enough bacon to add flavor, mashed potatoes not over seasoned. Will return when in the area.

Although we did not visit their store, they did donate donuts to our Dutch oven cook-off competition we participated in. The donuts were fresh and tasty!!

Stopped for lunch. Not only was the food great, the service and super friendly atmosphere from the host who seated us to our bartender/waitress Holly was awesome. It was true southern hospitality. Southern California could use a lesson in that. Thanks again Coltons 4 a wonderful experience.

We are located off of Interstate 40 across from the Holiday Inn Express in Morrilton. Hickory smoked meats on a wood fired pit. We do southern BBQ the right way.

We were traveling and saw great trip advisor reviews so we decided to have lunch there. We were so sorry to see that drive through only was available on Saturday.
It was very cold outside so we decided to give Vince's a try even though it would be quite inconvenient to eat in the car. The pork sandwich was scrumptious.
We will stop again another time but only when we can actually eat inside.

This was the first place recommended at our hotel. It did not disappoint. It is in a strip mall but feels authentic inside even with a Spanish happy Birthday for another guest. Chips and salsa were so so but the fajitas were very good as well as vegetarian meal for my colleague. Service was very good.

This was our FIRST time eating at a Waffle House. The food was good. The portions large. The prices very reasonable. The Waitresses were helpful & friendly. Our waitress, Darcy (batman) is pretty cool. The staff are efficient and love to banter with each other.
The atmosphere was like a hometown diner. Lots of locals eat here.

We ate there last night since we were in the area and saw they had great reviews. My BBQ was great. Incredibly generous portions. My husband had the catfish. He said it was great. The entire staff was friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back when we return to the area.
