Are you taking 59 to 20 or 10 to 65 to 85?


Was hoping to get some advice on that as well. Which is recommended?

From Slidell, it is shorter/quicker to go I-10 to Mobile; I-65 to Montgomery, then I-85 to ATL. IMO, there is nowhere to eat that is good on that route.

I-59 to Meridian, then I-20-59 to Birmingham, I-459 around Bham and then I-20 to ATL is about 15-18 minutes longer driving. TWO good places to eat that way...Weideman's in downtown Meridian and Baumhower's Victory Grill in Tuscaloosa (I-59/20 exit to Moundville an the café is in an area with motels, etc along I-59/20. LINK / ) We just ate at Baumhower's today. Good menu and good food. Lots of big TV's and bama sports crap.

Depends where you’re coming from but when I was a kid, stopping over at Peach Park in AL for an ice cream was a treat.

Take 10 to 65 to 85. If you can wait, stop in Auburn for food.

We stop at one of two places, Amsterdam Cafe or The Hound.

Both are very similar with good cocktail menus, decent craft beer selections, & approachable food menus.

Amsterdam Cafe: crab cakes, shrimp & grits or scallops are my wife's favorites. I usually just get a burger or a steak.

The Hound: good apps, burgers & steaks. Only ate here two times but good on both accounts.

Unique local restaurants that will appreciate your business.

Good luck & safe travels!
