Breakfast Pizza
Most of the food along the Katy trail is typically good, either common, countrified, pot-luck, festival, or occasional gourmet. Most of the ready-to-eat kinds can be found in the cafes, restaurants, convenience stores, gas stations or combinations of the latter two in the small towns or on the secondary highways near the trail. Such places can be looked up on the Internet or on the trail's interactive website below, which is updated regularly. Not all of them are next to the trail. Riders might have to go a few blocks to find the ones they want.
Still, the number and potential of the food at these places are ample. Even the grease-burgers and tenderloins can be large, and served with large fries or rings. Because some riders often feel sweaty and dirty, they prefer the trail-side cafes, bar-grills, convenience stops, or wineries found near the trail or in the smaller towns.
Others do not worry about it, and prefer the nicer restaurants found the larger towns. Still others prefer the hidden not-well-advertised rural general stores/other-outlets located on the trail at discrete crossroads, boat ramps, fishing camps, and campgrounds, like, Lucy's Bar & Grill, Katfish Katy's, Cooper's Landing, Thai Kitchen, Riverview Traders Store, Claysville Store, Jim's Bar & Grill, Riverfront Bar and Grill, and Peers Store. discrete food, like, barbeque, ethnic and country cooking can be found in surprising places
However, some of these places open early in the afternoon or on weekends, only. Some close on Monday or at least one-to-two days a week. Many close during the winter season. A few gas stations remain open 24-hours year-round. Thus, the timing for eating can be important.
