The Arrow Rock Station Restaurant
is housed in a building that, when constructed in 1931, served as the Arrow
Rock Oil Station. New owners converted the all-stone service station into a gas
station and convenience store in 1976 and, nearly a decade later, added a front
dining room with shake shingles and a barn-wood interior. Thus the Arrow Rock
Station Restaurant was born.
In keeping with the restaurant's
down-home charm, the menu features nothing but home cooking served with a
generous helping of hospitality at reasonable prices. The owner and chef, Judy Coble, draws upon her 30 years' experience of creating homemade delights.
Everything is cooked on site,
including the Arrow Rock Station Restaurant's delicious rolls and desserts. The
restaurant uses non-frozen, fresh-cut meats, and for the most part, only
in-season vegetables.
The Arrow Rock Station
Restaurant's latest addition -- the front dining room built in 1985 -- seats 25
people. Further back on the main floor is a formal, more intimate dining room that
seats 15 and a small den area that seats 10. There's also a deck out front for
those who want to dine outdoors, and an abundance of beautiful perennial
flowers make it a visual treat to do so. Total seating is for 50 people.
