T-Berry's Cafe
Dining at T-Berry's is like having Sunday dinner at Grandma's house (though there's no need to dress up!) Grab a seat in one of the booths, settle back, and enjoy hefty platters of downhome-style cooking, with a Southern touch. Breakfast is served all day, including pork chops and eggs and sides of biscuits and gravy. Country style dinners are their specialty, like the fried chicken basket, catfish filet or whitefish. Dinners are healthy portions and come with salad, baked potatoes or fries, and homemade rolls. There are steaks (try the country fried steak with mashed potatoes and cream gravy) and fried seafood platters, too.

1875: The Steakhouse
This upscale, elegant steakhouse at the French Lick Springs Hotel has soaring windows, creamy, white colors, and white linen-clothed table settings. This is fine dining in French Lick---arguably the finest---with prices to match. Start with appetizers like the braised beef ravioli or the baked lobster mac and cheese, followed with the traditional creamy, five onion soup. Steak entrees steal the show here, including a slab of slow roasted prime rib, a center cut porterhouse and a bone-in ribeye. There's nothing complicated or overly fussy about the food here, but if you're craving a good prime, aged steak, this restaurant in French Lick is the place to go.

33 Brick Street
Lively, often noisy, and typically crowded, this French Lick hotspot is a local favorite. The casual, family-friendly restaurant has typical sports bar grub, including cheese sticks, onion rings, burgers, sandwiches, and flatbread pizza. A vegetarian pizza, and pork tenderloin and Philly chicken sandwiches are recent additions to the menu. It's a fun place to hang out, with a friendly staff, TVs (usually turned to the sports channels) and a large collection of sports memorabilia, including several French Lick native Larry Bird items. There's an express lunch menu if you're in a hurry, and sometimes live music on Friday and Saturday nights.
