Rockaway Beach

La Pizza Cellar
3015 State Highway 176

Main street, +1 417 561-4709 just around the bend and up the hill from the boat launch ramp and fishing island. "the cellar" as the locals call it, is exactly what it is... a real underground cellar. just off the side of the road, and easy to miss there is an old door that opens up to a flight of stairs leading down to the bar/pizza restaurant. it's always dark, and usually full of smoke especially at night, but the pizza makes it all worthwhile. it's also a good place to get a cold beer.

Beach House Cafe

Main street, +1 417 561-5410. the best catfish. very mild and not fishy at all. their pies and cobblers are delicious. this place is located on the shore of lake taneycomo. you can enjoy the views of the lake while you dine. it's a nice scenic windy drive into town that you'll really enjoy.
