Some of the best ones come from small-town taverns where the buildings are older than anyone sitting at the bar. From an 1820s stagecoach-era tavern in Arrow Rock to an 1870s German hall in Hermann and a hunting-lodge roadhouse in Clinton, these spots keep the classic alive.

Walk a few steps farther, though, and there is an old-fashioned ice cream counter. Then, tucked into the same building, is something even more unusual—a small grocery market selling milk, butter, cheese, eggs, bread, meat, produce, and cartons of Braum’s ice cream.
