Hiking/Outdoor experiences

For a $6 entrance fee per car, you gain access to walking trails, picnic area, fishing kayaking (bring your own boat, a swimming beach, and beautiful park scenery.) We frequent this place ourselves. A life-saver during the pandemic!

Local Restaurants

Lebanon is an older community, with a number of really good, established restaurants, as well as some new editions that promise to impress.
This is a personal fave. Remodeled old school building, featuring wooden fixtures (the dining tables, benches, bar) crafted from a 100+ years old oak tree. Outdoor games, patio or indoor seating… plus really nice selection of local micro brews. The food is decent, and the ambiance is so much fun! (I’m not a fan of the blackened ribs, but the best burger you’ll ever eat). Excellent, hand-cut fries. Aw, snap! Now I’m getting hungry!

This spot is good for a nice meal with great cocktails. Higher end for Lebanon, but reasonably priced. Try the stuffed chicken.

The sugar will KILL you dead; but you will die happy. Fresh donuts cooked on site. So good!

Local brewery for the discerning beer drinker. I just went GF, so I haven’t been. Bar food. We hear good reviews from our friends. Would love your thoughts if you try this place.

This little spot is one of those hidden gems. It draws people from all over the country, who stop on their way through the area. Worth the stop. Excellent chocolate, and priced accordingly. Find their map on the wall and pin your own hometown.

There are better Mexican places in Indianapolis, (but they will cost you a drive and a bigger price tag). But we love this place because the food is good, the atmosphere is authentic and the people who own it work hard to support their community. They really strive to please.

This little dine-in/drive-thru joint is locally owned. Locals love it. Locally sourced beef, and other items. Yummy milk shakes and great onion rings! Our granddaughter insists on visits when she’s in town. This may have something to do with the fact that we are pushovers for an ice cream cone if you eat your whole dinner…

We love our ice cream in Lebanon, so you have great options. This is a newly opened location, but lots of really great frozen choices. By being located on the square, it makes a good after-dinner stop, paired with a walk around the historic square.

This little spot is a perfect place to take the kids for ice cream and some play time on the adjoining play scape. Try the hand-made scoop ice cream. Yummy!
