One of the few Batesville restaurants with a full bar. I like the sandwiches here especially the Scoobie. The pizza almost seems to have no sauce and I think it is noticeably absent but they are not too bad since the area does not have many pizza hot spots.

This is a fancy dinner type of restaurant, with a full bar, where you can get a variety of entrees from $20 to $30 including prime rib, filet mignon, salmon, snapper, etc. It is located on the White River and you can sit outside if there is available seating.

I have only been here for breakfast. There is a long picture window on the north side of the room where you overlook Batesville. The breakfast options are pretty limited and not very creative but filling and worth the visit. I have not been there for lunch yet.

Has a nice front patio deck to relax with a good mocha and highly recommended scones or breakfast sandwiches. The pre-made lunch sandwiches are decent but overpriced. Friendly staff.

Parks & Nature

Blanchard Springs Caverns can hardly be described in words! You must visit the caves truly understand and appreciate their beauty. Entering the world of the underground is always a thrilling experience.We hope this site help to showcase some of the wonderful and majestic sights you’ll see. There are three different tours offered at the caverns; the Dripstone Trail, the Discovery Trail, the Discovery in the Dark Headlamp Tour and the caverns newest trail, the Wild Cave Tour. Led by knowledgeable Forest Service Guides, the tours wind through water-carved passages, including an underground river and the world’s largest flowstone. Each trail is a little different in intensity and visitors should be aware of each trail they decide to take.
