Triple T & Omar’s Hi-Way Chef land on ‘Best Roadside Eats’ list

The menu at Omar’s Hi-Way Chef is vast, offering breakfast all day, and diner classics like burgers, sandwiches, salads, and appetizers. With diner staples like this, it makes sense the restaurant inside the Triple T Truck Stop landed on a “best of” list.

The website FreightFlock.com released its “Professional Truck Driver’s Guide to America’s 12 Best Roadside Eats” list and has the Triple T eighth on the list.

Freight Flock paid attention to the following categories when deciding which truck stops to add to their list:

  • Parking
  • Convenience
  • Quality and food service
  • Operating hours
  • Local or historical significance
  • Amenities

“Roadside eats have a special place in the heart of American culture, as they offer a place for rest and refueling while on long road trips across the country. Professional drivers especially take solace in great roadside eats because they spend so much time traveling on highways and interstates.”

Erica Chappell

Omar’s Hi-Way Chef and Triple T ranked pretty well along with the other spots located in South Carolina, Oklahoma, California, and Montana to name a few. Triple T is actually the only Arizona truck stop to make the list.
