Breezeway Cafe, Wheeling, WV


The Breezeway Cafe is located at the Wheeling Island Casino. Today I tried the Cajun Meatloaf Tower. Described in the menu as "Two thick slabs of seasoned meatloaf with fried onions layered with mushroom gravy and smashed potatoes," it was quite good. The cajun seasoning was on the mild side, and the gravy actually tasted of mushooms. The only drawback was a lack of some kind of green vegetable, but that could be ordered on the side, I suppose. Overall, a good meatloaf find.

Update: The casino has closed The Breezeway, and I don't know if they offer this at any of their other restaurants.

Prime Time Cafe at Walt Disney World


From Molly B in NY:
Believe it or not, there is some very fine meatloaf to be had at the Prime Time Café in Disney's Hollywood Studios—part of the Walt Disney World theme park megalopolis in Orlando, FL. Even better, you and yours will be treated to the full 1950s dinner experience, complete with décor so tasteless that it's become cool and sassy waitstaff who will stand there whilst you shovel the last of your green beans into your mouth and check your fingernails to be sure that there's no dirt under them before you come to the table. My family deliberately misbehaves when we go there just for the fun of getting in trouble and being made to stand in the corner. (For some real fun, blow your straw paper at your server!) The meatloaf served here beats my mom's carapace-encrusted tomato monstrosity by a far cry, and the other comfort food on offer isn't bad either. (Sorry, Mom).

First recommendation!


Bob S in New York says that he always enjoys the meatloaf from Bob Evans, a midwestern restaurant chain. Apparently, it looks like this photo. Any one care to comment?

Welcome!

I was frustrated at not being able to find a good meatloaf meal while on the road. Then it struck me: why not harness the power of the internet for the good of mankind? And so this blog was born. But I can't do it alone, so I'm calling on you, fellow road warriors, to help. Submit the locations of diners, restaurants, roadside stands, or any other place that you feel has a meatloaf so good, it's worth stopping your vehicle for. Descriptions, prices, and photos are more than welcomed. America, won't you join me in this quest?
