If there's any one specific genre (category?) of food that the Midwest is totally known for, it's comfort food. And honestly? We couldn't be prouder. We Hoosiers do comfort food right, after all, and it seems like everywhere you turn you're sure to find another amazing little hole-in-the-wall to try and fall in love with. Of course, I do have some favorites - a few of these holes-in-walls that really stand out above the rest. There's one in the small town of Nashville that's perfect on all fronts: service, menu, and vibe. No matter where in the Midwest you're located, it's worth it to meander out to Nashville and try it. It's called the Hobnob Corner, and it's all sorts of wonderful. Come check out this small-town restaurant in Indiana if ever you've got an appetite (for both adventure and literal food).
Hobnob Corner in Nashville is actually pretty amazing for multiple reasons - the food and the service are just a couple of them.
The building it's in, for instance, was built back in 1868 and was originally utilized as a grocery store.
It's been owned and operated by the same family since the 1970s, though, and in that time it's become a beloved staple in the community.
It's warm inside, and homey, with that "mom and pop" feel we all crave from time to time.
And, goodness, when I say they have amazing comfort food, I mean they have AMAZING comfort food.
The menu is impressively diverse, too, so you can expect to find everything from American classics like roast beef to Asian dishes, Jambalaya, spaghetti, and SO much more.
And don't even get me started about the chili.
The folks you'll find in here vary from the regulars to the locals to folks just passing through, and all of them make the overall experience that much nicer.
It's a pleasant place, with plenty to eat and hearty portions... so be sure to bring your appetite.
But, of course, don't forget to leave room for dessert.
It's easy get lost in the deliciousness of your entree, but the pies and ice cream 'round here are just as good.
So, come on out to Hobnob Corner and see what it's all about.
There's a reason it's been around for literal decades!
