Corydon is a town in Harrison Township, Harrison County, Indiana. Located north of the Ohio River in the extreme southern part of the U.S. state of Indiana, it is the seat of government for Harrison County. Corydon was founded in 1808 and served as the capital of the Indiana Territory from 1813 to 1816. It was the site of Indiana's first constitutional convention, which was held June 10–29, 1816. Forty-three convened to consider statehood for Indiana and drafted its first state constitution. Under Article XI, Section 11, of the Indiana 1816 constitution, Corydon was designated as the capital of the state until 1825, when the seat of state government was moved to Indianapolis. During the American Civil War, Corydon was the site of the Battle of Corydon, the only official pitched battle waged in Indiana. More recently, the town's numerous historic sites have helped it become a tourist destination. A portion of its downtown area is listed in the National Register of Historic Places as the Corydon Historic District. As of the 2010 census, Corydon had a population of 3,122.

We had never dined at a Lee's chicken before today. I ordered the #4 chicken strips with tasty honey mustard. My husband tried the chicken livers and gizzards. Very tasty!! Service was very quick!!! We enjoyed our first exposure to Lee's fried chicken.

Food and service was horrible!! We sat for a few minutes before a very bored looking waitress grudgingly took our drink order. She finally returned with drinks and took our orders. I ordered a bacon egg and cheese on toast with hashbrowns with onions and cheese. I received an egg and cheese sandwich with no bacon plus no cheese on my hashbrowns. My Husband ordered a patty melt with hashbrowns with cheese on them. His hashbrowns had no cheese when served to us. The waitress took my order back and had the cook make me a new meal. Then she brought my Husband a place with a cold slice of cheese on it to put on his hashbrowns and walked away. Seriously who wants to eat a cold slab of cheese on top of hashbrowns that were already cold by this time. By the time my corrected meal was brought to me my Husband was almost done eating. Bottom line...pass by this waffle house because the food and service are the WORST!!! We emailed Waffle House corporate to tell them about our horrible experience and asked for someone to call us back. As of a week later no one from waffle house has contacted us.

It always a clean place with fresh great food. We eat there many a lunch time. The salads are great, love the idea of 1/2 size salad for seniors. This salad is just right size with right price. The place is always clean with nice clean atmosphere. They live up to high standards of this frachise. Have senior in mind with special prices.
6. Subway

We've had Subway sandwiches in different cities where we have traveled. They are consistently good no matter where you are. This one is no exception. You have a lot of healthy choices too. That's rare for fast food. Their new Flatizzas are a tasty option.

Weâve never found better food !!! A seafood restaurant, of this type, is usually found along the coasts, but here is a great place inland. Unlike the chain eateries, the freshly prepared food was freshly prepared; very tasty !!! The battered fish was the best weâve had, as was the shrimp, onion rings, & hush puppies. The portions were large; we took plenty home. This former chain restaurant building, is clean, spacious, & the servers were most gracious & competent. The menus is quite varied. Weâre fortunate to find this JEWELL !!!

Our menu is filled with classic American dishes like steak, salmon, burgers, sandwiches and salads, as well as other traditional favorites like slow-roasted prime rib and our famous chicken tenders, all at a great value.

We don't usually go to O'Charley's, but this one was right across the street from our hotel. Definitely good that we weren't in a hurry. Later in the evening and everything was kind of winding down. The appetizer was very tasty. Lots of room. Friendly service from our waiter. Easy to get to.

We ended up in Corydon at breakfast and the lady at the visitor center suggested here. Nothing fancy, but the food was good and service pleasant. Giant side portion of potatoes. Typical busy small town local restaurant. Could use some updating but then the prices would go up.

For a fast foolery, this one is usually a better âCBRLâ !!! The management had skill for attracting & keeping good servers. The food is always VERY GOOD, the GIFT SHOP well stocked with great gifts, & there are modestly priced menus items. On I-64, Corydon, IN, IS on the way, whichever direction youâre headed. There is great WALMART nearby, also.
