- Good: Burgers, Tour of Italy sandwich
- Deezie's Hot Chicken
- Jeff 2015: Hot was too hot, Cajun and Hot together was about right.
- Jeff 2016: Feels like they changed their flavor levels. Hot and Cajun mixed together was not spicey enough this year. Also liz got food poisoning, hope that's just a fluke.
- Green Dragon Inn, middle earth themed restaurant. As of Phreaknic 2016, we found out about this place too late and no one has eaten there yet, so no reviews.
- O'Possums. Irish gastropub about 15 minutes from hotel. Good Mac and Cheese \ Shells and Cheese made with gouda, or blue cheese. Shepard's pie was good, but needed salt. Corned beef was good. Fried pickle spears are large, and use a funnel cake like batter. To-go orders available.
- Chicago Pizza, almost walking distance from the hotel.
Drinkin
- Don't forget to bring a good large plastic cup
- Just a traffic light or two down the road is a very large Liqour Store, "Total Beverage"
