Great Places to Eat
Who doesn ’ t like a great meal ?
Stillwater has a lot of great places to eat , but what makes the food scene really special is how many of our restaurants are locally owned and operated .
We know people have their favorite chain restaurants , but we also know how truly special it is to have a favorite neighborhood joint .
Isn ’ t it great when someone comes from out of town , and you get to be the person making a recommendation about a place special to you and your family ?
And , sometimes it ’ s so unexpected . Who knew you could get such a great burger at Nikki ’ s Greek or Frontier Lanes . Who knew you could get such great hummus at Freddie Paul ’ s . Locals . Locals knew .
I don ’ t think I ’ ve ever sent someone home disappointed with a recommendation made for a local Stillwater place .
We have great chefs , friendly servers , clean kitchens and our food trucks are some of the best in the state .
Stillwater has been on a development spree . People have been going all-in on quality of life measures . If we want to be a place where people will go to school , live , work , retire and visit – great food is a key ingredient to happiness .
A great meal makes people feel at home . It keeps them coming back .
Stillwater has made great strides in the dining options it provides .
Bon appetit .
