The Historic Oklahoma Restaurant In The Middle Of Nowhere That’s So Worth The Drive

Sometimes, the best meals are the home-cooked classics like big country-style breakfasts, club sandwiches, and comfort foods like meatloaf and chicken-fried steaks. Oklahoma certainly has its share of amazing little diners and cafes, but there's one that serves up all these tasty meals in a historic setting.

Kumback Lunch has been an icon in the little town of Perry since it opened in 1926. With its distinctive EAT sign and art-deco styling, this little lunch cafe is worth the drive from Oklahoma City.

The walls of the dining room are covered with photos and memorabilia. With more than 90 years of history, this quaint cafe will charm you with its friendly atmosphere and even friendlier service.

Snuggle into a booth, or claim a spot at the lunch counter. This place is a favorite of locals and visitors alike.

If you're looking for breakfast that'll stick to your ribs, you've come to the right place. The fluffy biscuits and creamy country gravy will start your day off right.

You'll find plenty of burgers and sandwiches on the lunch menu, and you'll want to get the hand-battered onion rings on the side.

For dinner, it's all about comfort food. You'll find everything from chicken fried steak and chicken fried chicken...

...to meatloaf, pork chops, or roast beef, these dinner entrees will make you feel right at home.

The homemade rolls just melt in your mouth; you'll want to ask your server for extra.

For dessert, the homemade pies are little slices of heaven on a plate...

...but you'll also want to try a hand-dipped root beer float.
