7 Greenbrier, Arkansas Restaurants That Give Road Trippers A Reason To Pull Over Hungry

Greenbrier sits right along US-65 in Faulkner County, and the main drag is lined with places that are ready to feed a hungry traveler. You can find biscuits and chicken fried steak, thin crust pizza, brisket tacos, and a food truck breakfast with serious portions. Some spots open at sunrise, and a few keep short hours, so a little planning goes a long way.

This list covers seven stops on or near Broadview Street, each with its own reason to hit the brakes. Whether you want a sit-down plate lunch, a quick burger, or a big weekend breakfast, there is a good chance Greenbrier has it covered. Here is where to eat before you get back on the highway.

1. Wagon Wheel Restaurant, Greenbrier, AR

Breakfast starts early here, with the doors opening at 6 AM Monday through Friday. That makes Wagon Wheel one of the easiest morning stops for anyone rolling through on US-65.

The menu leans on Southern-style home cooking, with fluffy biscuits, hand-battered chicken fried steak, and homemade bread. Fresh pies are made daily, and the coconut pie is a highlight. Hamburger steak is another menu favorite for lunch or dinner.

The restaurant has been serving Greenbrier for about 31 years, and the interior has been remodeled. Table service, a kids’ menu, and high chairs make it easy for families. Coffee and a good tea selection round things out.

Plan around the schedule, since it is closed Saturday and Sunday and open until 8 PM on weekdays. Reservations are accepted, which helps if you are traveling with a group. Expect to spend roughly $10 to $20 per person.

2. Roper’s Restaurant, Greenbrier, AR

Hamburger steak smothered in onions and brown gravy, served with a baked potato and a salad, is the sort of plate that settles a long drive. Roper’s builds its menu around home-style comfort food, and it also serves pizza.

The restaurant sits at 105 N Broadview Street, right in the middle of Greenbrier’s highway corridor. Portions run generous, and the dining room is casual and family oriented. A kids’ menu and high chairs are available, and dessert is a draw too.

Hours are worth noting. Roper’s is closed Monday, open 11 AM to 8 PM Tuesday through Thursday, and stays until 9 PM on Friday and Saturday. Sunday is a short day, with service from 11 AM to 2 PM.

Reservations are not taken, so Friday and Saturday evenings are the busiest times. Dine-in, takeout, and drive-through are all options.

More than 25 years in business makes MoJo’s a Greenbrier landmark. It is a casual pizza place on South Broadview Street with a lunch buffet and a salad bar.

The pizza is thin crust with plenty of toppings, and the all-you-can-eat setup suits big appetites. It is also one of the few spots on this list open every day, from 11 AM to 8:30 PM.

Families can book birthday gatherings here, and the kids’ menu and high chairs are on hand. Dine-in and takeout are both available, and parking is free.

Pizza is priced in the $10 to $20 per person range, which keeps a group meal manageable. Friday and Saturday afternoons run busiest, so Sunday or midweek evenings are calmer if you have flexibility.

4. Taco Local, Greenbrier, AR

Brisket on a taco is not what most people expect off a highway exit in central Arkansas. Taco Local does it, and the signature cheese dip rides alongside.

The menu is Mexican and Tex-Mex, with super burritos and a Choripollo burrito among the items to look at. Portions are generous, and service is fast.

The location is 118 N Broadview Street, directly on the main road. You can dine in, sit outside, use the drive-through, or order takeout, and delivery is offered too.

Hours are long, running 10 AM to 9 PM Monday through Saturday and 10 AM to 3 PM on Sunday. Catering is available, and a kids’ menu and high chairs are on hand. Reservations are not accepted.

5. Camino Real – Mexican Restaurant, Greenbrier, AR

Street tacos and homemade chips with salsa lead the way at Camino Real. It is a welcoming Mexican restaurant set in a shopping strip just off US-65, at 52 S Broadview Street, suite 105.

Carne asada is a menu highlight, and quesabirria tacos are a server recommendation. Service is quick, which is handy when the road is calling.

It opens at 11 AM and stays open until 9 PM every day of the week, so it covers both lunch and dinner. Dine-in, takeout, curbside pickup, and delivery are all offered.

Friday evening is the busiest window, while most other times are quiet. Kids’ menu options and high chairs are available, and parking is free.

6. Arkansas Breakfast Club, Greenbrier, AR

Check the calendar before you go, because this food truck keeps a tight schedule. It is closed Monday through Wednesday, open 6 AM to noon Thursday and Friday, and 7 AM to 1 PM on weekends.

Arkansas Breakfast Club is locally owned and parked at 83 S Broadview Street along the US-65 corridor. Breakfast is the whole focus.

The portions are big, and waffle and fried chicken is a standout. For a weekend morning on the road, a truck like this gives you a hearty start without a long sit-down meal.

Call 501-314-4567 if you want to confirm hours before pulling in.

7. Mrs. T’s Burgers, Greenbrier, AR

All of the beef here is sourced locally and processed in house. That detail sets Mrs. T’s apart from the typical quick burger stop.

The signature item is the Fried Onion Burger. A chicken fried steak sandwich is also on the menu, along with an all-beef hot dog smothered in homemade chili and classic fries.

Prices fall in the $1 to $10 range, which is easy on a road trip budget. Dine-in, takeout, and curbside pickup are offered, but delivery is not.

Hours are short. It is open Tuesday through Friday only, 11 AM to 7 PM, except Wednesday, when it closes at 6 PM. The stop is at 102 N Broadview Street, and a free lot and street parking are available.
