A Skoblow-McCormack family favorite! Biscuits! Chicken and waffles! Catfish with kale slaw! Strawberry salad add fried chicken! Casual.
One of Columbia's most popular brunch spots. Jared's getting the sweet bb (veggie burger on buttery grilled sourdough) and Hana's ordering the eggs florentine.
Casual and fantastic lunch spot with great sandwiches, house-made breads, and a full bar that's open late. The bahn mi is where it's at!
One of our favorite dinner spots in town. Nice yet affordable (and delicious). Get the flourless chocolate cake. It's the right thing to do.
Considered by many to be the best restaurant in CoMo, Barred Owl boasts an in-house butcher and focuses on sustainable and seasonal dishes. A little more upscale.
A little farther away, but worth the trip for the rotating farm-to-table menu of family-style elevated Midwestern fare. Try the mac and cheese, wood-fired pizza, and lamb meatballs.
Lovely wine bar and retailer in downtown Columbia with charcuterie and a few beers on tap, too.
Enough said.
Our local independent movie theater + records store (connected to Uprise Bakery).
Arrive early and wander our farmers market and the adjacent interactive urban farm on Saturday morning.
Check out some live music and watch the sun set over the Missouri River. Bonus points if you bike there on the MKT/Katy Trail!
Fall is a beautiful time to hike in Missouri! We like the Deer Run, High Ridge, and Gans Creek Wild Area trails. Check out the large cave system at Devil's Icebox while you're there.
