Dining & Entertainment

THE MAIN DINING ROOM

How about an "Illinois Valley Dining Experience" in a rustic, casual environment?

A visit to Starved Rock is not complete without breakfast, lunch or dinner in the Main Dining Room of the Lodge. Whether you want a tasty appetizer, lite lunch or a full-course meal, you will find what you're looking for in our Dining Room. The atmosphere is relaxing and nostalgic, with a fireplace as the centerpiece, it's easy to see why we've been welcoming guests for over 70 years.

Enjoy a glass of outstanding Starved Rock Wine, a specialty Martini or our Starved Rock Signature Ale in the Back Door Lounge.



BACK DOOR LOUNGE

The Back Door Lounge is located behind the Main Dining Room and features 3 large, flatscreen TVs, Starved Rock Signature Ale and seasonal entertainment.

THE VERANDA

From Memorial Day to Labor Day (weather permitting) the Illinois River view and outdoor dining on the The Veranda can't be beat! Our outdoor grill chefs are ready to make you brats, burgers or a great, grilled chicken sandwich.

If you prefer to spend more time hiking than eating, here are some other dining choices:

STARVED ROCK CAFE


The Cafe is located in the Hotel Lobby across from the Front Desk. This is the first place to open each morning for a hot cup of coffee, pastries, or a lite breakfast. Soup and sandwiches are available along with wine, books, and travel necessities and more!

TRAILHEADS SNACKS & SOUVENIRS

Trailheads is located in the Starved Rock State Park Visitor Center at the riverfront.
