Need a new breakfast joint? Hit up Railroad Cafe in Mitchell, Indiana. Get the Hogger. If it doesn’t fill you up, I’d be VERY surprised. Lunch or dinner? They got you! My favorite is the Train Wreck Salad with Grilled Chicken or Breaded Tenderloin.

Stop at Home Town Scoops and see Sadie and the Crew! The atmosphere is one of a kind! Located off the Historic Orleans Square. Go on a Saturday morning and visit the Farmers Market before.
