This restaurant sits directly on MacArthur Blvd and right across the street from the entrance to the C&O canal. During the Spring, Summer and Fall months, the restaurant offers outdoor seating which makes it extremely convenient to all those coming off the trail. The food is very good and the indoor experience is slightly more upscale (linen cloth dining tables) versus that of the outdoor seating venue.
