White River Drive Inn

Great place to grab a quick bite to eat. Old American atmosphere and food.

This is a simple cafe in a small town, so this isn't terribly fancy. I enjoyed it, but it's a little overpriced for the food you get. Given the limited options locally, that's probably not unexpected. It does have at of "small town charm" and "local color", so I recommend it largely on that basis.

They had a couple daily specials, but of the food was what I would expect in a small town cafe such as this. French fries, tater tots, a variety of sandwiches / burgers, as well as chicken dishes such as hot wings. (Descriptions indicate to me that they may go rather spicy.) Servings were okay (not overly generous), except for a side salad that was a bit small and simple for the price.

Service is to order from a window and then the food is brought out to you. The staff wasn't terribly attentive, but they did check on us once while eating.

As a hot shot delivery driver, sometimes it's difficult to find good food on the road. But this place has a welcoming environment and it feels like home. The food is 7/10, good not great but the employees and cooks makes the place a 9. Young lady at the counter was straight to the point, pretty helpful but could smile once in a while. Regardless she did a good job, both as a cashier and server. Definitely would go out of my way to eat there again if I was coming back home south to Houston, TX.
