Good lunch in Stillwater?

[PanhandleGlocker]

Never been to Stillwater before but Making my way around to it Sunday. Best place to eat? Is Eskimo Joes any good?

I’m a fan of hideaway pizza. Wasn’t the first one in Stillwater? Open to yalls suggestions!

Bacon cheese fries from Joes! Oh and fried mushroom.

Eskimo Joe's or Mexico Joe's are always good. Plenty of Mexican restaurants mostly owned by the same family that are great too.

Mexico joes is mediocre, palominos is good if you are wanting Mexican food. Eskimo joes sweet pepper bacon cheese fries are good. Hideaway in Stillwater is normally better than most of the other locations.

Shortcakes, if you're ok with breakfast for lunch. I'm sure they make other stuff, but why for the love of Pete would you ever get anything besides the chicken fried steak and eggs is beyond me.

The Stillwater Hideaway is the original one.

Hideaway is the original, but they have expanded at least three times, it's much bigger. They do NOT have the Hideaway cups like the franchise locations.

Eskimo Joes is someplace you should experience at least once. Their burgers are okay, the cheese-fries are great. The Joe Clothes store is attached to the restaurant, so if you want clothes, you might as well have lunch.

Mexican food:
Mexico Joes has been open for years so it can't be too bad ( I haven't eaten there in 10 years), my favorite Mexican places in Stillwater in order are:
Tacos Los Primos at 2000 N. Boomer Rd, - small, dive-like place in an old Pizza Hut location.
Mariachi Mexican Grill at 1717 E White Barn Dr - On the golf-course, good food but short on parking.
El Tapatio at 825 S Perkins Rd

Burgers:
Ron's Hamburger at 811 E 6th Ave (closed Sunday)
Eskimo Joes at 501 W Elm Ave - get the cheese fries
Five Guys at 611 N Perkins Rd (burger chain - I haven't eaten at this location but have at others, one of my favorite burger places. Stay away if you're allergic to peanuts!)
Shortcakes Diner at 219 N Main St - typical old school diner place serving breakfast, burger. Been there since the early 80's.

Random:
Coney Island at 223 S Washington St - original location but definitely not the original place. Was gutted and expanded circa 2019.

Unique places for a beer:
The Great White Buffalo Tavern - crowd changes based on time of day and day of week.
Georges Stable - been there forever
Treehouse Tavern - Think large metal shed turned into a bar out in the middle of a field. Smoking is allowed. Unique but getting there in rainy season is challenging.

Cherokee Strip bbq on Perkins, Brett Brownlee the owner is a real good guy and shooter, Thursdays is burnt ends day.
Louies downtown is good too

Can't speak much to what has been said, but with regards to clothes from Eskimo Joe's, I would never spend my money to serve as an advertisement for any business. If they want me advertising for them, they first give me the clothes and then pay me for every time I wear them.

Stillwater hideaway is better than the franchised company. (I worked at the original franchises ownded by the original owners), been sold a couple times since then
