What is Roadfood?

Roadfood means great regional meals along highways, in small towns and in city neighborhoods. The Roadfood.com website was created by Stephen Rushmore along with best-selling authors Jane and Michael Stern, whose many books have inspired the cult of celebrating great American roadside eats.

Roadfood is non-franchised, sleeves-up food made by cooks, bakers, pitmasters, and sandwich-makers who are America’s culinary folk artists. It is almost always informal and inexpensive; and the best Roadfood restaurants are colorful places enjoyed by locals (and savvy travelers) for their character as well as their menu.

Roadfood.com was founded in 2000. Its restaurant reviews and forums are a food-loving traveler's best friend, packed with great local color and the best regional specialties across America.
