People have different tastes when it comes to food. There are many good restaurants in the Chillicothe area. They are worthy destinations after a long day of hiking, biking, sightseeing, or lazing on the deck. You can easily find fast food and chain restaurants (McDonalds, Wendy’s, Olive Garden, and Red Lobster, to name a few) but these are local and serve tasty food.
