    The Ultimate BLT which has a local FRESH delicious egg in it.
    Ursula G.

    This place is an absolute gem! I didn't expect such a neat little spot while driving through the mountains. The food is surprisingly amazing at the cafe. It's obvious to us the ingredients are local or otherwise fresh. Compared to most "road food" stops, I was shocked. We really fell in love with the area so we've visited multiple times and order something new every time. Not only does the food exceed my previous "road stop judgement" expectations but usually is even better than most places I have visited in the cities along the way! They really put a lot of intention and love in their food here and it shows. Also for the general store, it's been great to be able to pick up some goods that I have often forgotten. (Chapstick, moisturizer, snacks.) Along with many local offerings.

    If you're out this way, you know it's pretty remote without any cell signal. This store is a good find in an area without many options otherwise. Half of this place is a general store and the other part a restaurant. On the food end, there's homemade cookies, ice cream cones, and a section for sit down dining. On the supplies side, there is hardware, T shirts, hiking and fishing supplies, gasoline, propane and more. Did you know you can fill up your RV with LP gas and get a hunting license too (while eating an ice cream cone). They've done a great job at this place.

    Best chicken sandwich, home made banana pudding and fresh made lemonade! Great spot for all the bikers! Do not pass this place up, owners are friendly and everything is fresh! Wow!

    Sign outside.

    WE WERE SO LUCKY TO STOP HERE!! I can't say enough about the incredible high quality from scratch food, hand made drinks and pastry chef level deserts. The absolute best hot chicken I've ever had. Unique flavor filled meatloaf, fluffy corn puppies with delicious side sauce, truffle fries and crispy perfectly cooked brussel sprouts as well as incredible pimento grilled cheese and that was AFTER we ate homemade oatmeal cream cakes and banana pudding. DO NOT MISS the hand shaken lemonade and the mint iced tea (that she picked from her garden last night!) We are from Chicago and have traveled the nation on our Harleys stopping at mom and pop cafes like this. There is NO comparison! Everyone should come eat here! We will make this a mandatory stop when anywhere nearby.

    There were chocolate chip cookie sandwiches filled with a white cream and half dipped in chocolate and there were homemade oatmeal cream pies.

    Hillbilly Market - Simple Banana Chips without all the inflammatory ingredients that I can't have.

    I haven't been in a quaint lil "Mom and Pop" style grocery store like this since childhood. Maybe I…read moreshould look up synonyms for nostalgia, because everything Hot Springs was nostalgic for both my partner and I. Hillbilly Market was very nostalgic for us both. They seem to have just about everything you could possibly want or need, just without 5-20 options of brands. Simple. Sweet treats sprinkled throughout and even offerings from local farmers and artists. I have a lot of food allergies and sensitivities that make eating a lot of my favorites really hard. Banana chips is one of them. I haven't had them or much dried fruit in several years because sunflower seed oil seems to be used in the process so often with commercial dried foods. If I do find them, they're typically expensive and then taste like crap. So when I came across this expansive display of all these bags of dried fruits and veggies, Banana chips were the first to catch my eye. I startled a few people with my squeal of excitement as I began snatching up bag after bag of dried fruits and veggie chips. Everything I bought was made with a few simple ingredients. No seed oils or dyes, very reasonably priced and everything I bought is very tasty. I'm certain that this place is a treasure trove for people passing through on the Appalachian Trail. I promise that I practiced some self control and left plenty of dried fruits and treats for them as well. That fridge in the back corner of my photo? Full of meat from what we assumed came from a local butcher. It all looked really good and made us regret not cooking dinner at our cabin at least one night. Though we didn't regret any of the good food we had at local diners. Next time though, for sure. Like most places in Hot Springs, they close a lot earlier than we had expected. I think it was around 6:00 when they closed. We were unsure if this was just the usual or due to the community still healing and rebuilding from the hurricanes. So don't make the mistake we made and think you'll just stop in on your way back from a day of adventure and pick up groceries for dinner.
