If you're in search of a hip spot on the North side of Branson, look no further than the intersection of Shepherd of the Hills and 248, where the Branson Food Park awaits. As the name suggests, this park is home to 7-8 tantalizing food trucks offering a diverse range of delectable cuisine.

A great locally-owned restaurant. Good American food.
Everything Else
It's Free (and close)! The Fish Hatchery releases over a million trout every year into Lake Taneycomo. The visitors center is very informative, the fish are fun to feed. Nice small museum & aquariums.

Traveler advice
Don't miss
Enjoy the scenery!
Branson is so much more than just shows and Silver Dollar City.
While here, check out one of my recommended hikes, or just drive around and enjoy the scenery.
Top of the Rock and Dogwood Canyon are also always spectacular!

Getting around
Use the side routes, and stay off Country Music Blvd
A drive down 76 Country Music Blvd is a great sight-seeing activity. But when you just want to get somewhere, the traffic is a killer.
By jumping on the red, blue and yellow routes, you can bypass the traffic jams, and get to where you are going very quickly. Stop in the office and ask me for a map!
