Clean, with very pleasant staff. Nice senior menu. Turkey wS not real turkey, but I figured that. Lots of good strawberry promotions for the month of May.

Barnstormers is located on the Norfolk NE airport (OFK) in the old airport terminal (the southernmost airport building). If arriving by plane, you can park just outside the restaurant. The entrance to the restaurant is on the east side of the building (parking lot side)--just walk through the gate and around the building. It was chilly so the patio was closed. This was my first visit to Barnstormers, and I can guarantee that I'll be heading back soon. Everything was perfect... the aviation-themed style of the restaurant, the friendly and casual service (our server's welcoming personality reminded me of an old-time family diner), and--most importantly--the food. I went with the day's special because I always go with the special if I don't know what to get. It was the best Prime Rib Sandwich I've ever eaten.In a nutshell, it was a perfect dining experience, and the best fly-in restaurant I've tried yet. The question isn't if I'll go back, it's how soon I'll go back. I just wish I wasn't a one-hour flight away.Kudos to the staff at Barnstormers!Thank you! I appreciate your comment- one of the best, and most unexpected 'perks' of Barnstormers is the many pilots we've met. Always ready to share stories, and such genuine and congenial people!! Glad to know we may see you often :)

The Granary

Reviewed By blang311

In town for business and looking for a reasonably priced, decent place to eat. I found this place by accident and was pleasantly surprised. It was mainly older folks in there when I was there and the interior is pretty basic. The food was however, excellent and the cost made it even better. I had the Shrimp and would definitely go back!

We had a good experience with good food but poor service. Our lettuce salads were frozen and our waitress didn’t offer an apology. She acted like we were an inconvenience. The burgers were great, boneless wings were good and chicken sandwich was good as well.

Franklin's Bistro

Reviewed By Letsroadtrip

We really enjoyed most of the food at a place that gives out mixed signals. It seems like it's going for a fancier vibe with some of the dishes yet is located in a strip mall which doesn't scream high class. That said the fish tacos and prime rib sandwich were quite good, as was the fettuccini alfredo. You could tell the salad dressing wash homemade and also quite good. I really liked the blue cheese potato chips but wish they would have put the garlic blue cheese sauce on the side as a dip, if you don't eat the chips quickly they get quite soggy. We will return.

From the onion rings app (spicy mustard dip was amazing) to the entrees (amazing steaks, burgers, brisket and mac and cheese) finish up with carrot cake, caramel macchiato cheesecake (my favor thing of the night), carrot cake and chocolate torte.

2-6 is happy hour at Whisky Creek. We had a GREAT strawberry margarita and appetizers all half off! We ordered a blooming onion, tootsie rolls and wings. All were cooked to perfection. We went with another couple and shared everything. We called it dinner. It definitely was a “Happy Hour”.
