Practical information and resources[]

Restaurants[]

Saint Elmo's Steak House is located 127 South Illinois Street.  It is an excellent restaurant.  While it is expensive, you will not leave hungry.  The shrimp cocktail packs quite a punch as it is made with fresh horseradish.


Nightlife[]

Whistle Stop is a bar that is across the street from the bus station (and popular with bus passengers who have a layover).  While it does not have craft beer, the prices are fairly reasonable. Triton Brewing Company produces beer that is worth trying.
