Black River Café Description
It can be hard to eat healthfully when you're on the road with kids, but the Black River Café makes it easy with a commitment to serve fresh food locally grown, without pesticides. Even the meats are hormone- and antibiotic-free. The restaurant is best-known for their wide variety of pancakes made with kid-friendly extras like chocolate chips, bananas, and raspberries, all served with real Ohio maple syrup. The restaurant is more family-friendly than child-focused; go there for the food and the relaxing low-key atmosphere, not to entertain the kids.
Planning Notes
- They don't do dinner. Plan on hitting the café for breakfast or lunch.
- Custom orders are ok. The wait staff knows the ingredients in each dish and can help you plan accordingly.
- Expect a long wait on weekends. Bring some crackers to keep hungry kids happy.
