Today, I'd like to let you know about a few of my favorite places to go in Oklahoma. Some you may have been to; others you not even know existed. Let's get started.
1) Meer's Restaurant | Meers, OK | Map | Website
This place is awesome. They have some of the best burgers around, and it's cheap for college kids. The only problem is that it's way down around Lawton, OK. The best thing to do is take a day trip and explore the Wichita National Wildlife Refuge. It's a great place to spend the day, and then go to Meer's for dinner.
2) Pops | Edmond, OK| Map | Website
Pops is located right on historic Route 66 just a few miles east of UCO. The food is okay...the selection of soda pop is what sets this place apart. If you ever decide to go here, make sure you get a "Kickapoo Joy Juice".
3) Pete's Place | Krebs, OK | Map | Website
Pete's is located in SE Oklahoma, just outside of McAlester. Another great day trip is to go down to Robber's Cave State Park and explore the caves, and then make Pete's a dinner stop. Some of the best Italian food (especially the Italian sausage...mmmmm). This is one of those must-try places, even if you don't like Italian food all that much.
Well, there you are. These are, of course, in no particular order. I have a few other places that I'll be sharing later on, but I felt like it was a great time to let you in on these favorites of mine. The weather is beginning to turn nice, and day/weekend trips are always a great way to relax your mind and get away from the stress of college, even for a small amount of time.
