The Tree House - Downtown Zanesville

522 Market Street, Zanesville, Ohio
#thetreehouse

Open Monday-Thursday 7am - 6pm & Friday 7am - 10pm

A treat on  Thursday, October 3, 2013 -  Randy offers to take me to lunch, he heard The Tree House had "good food" so naturally we are going to try it!!

A unique diner, with what I quickly learned has a steady set of "regulars", the setup is fun and a "work in progress".  Even a loft our waitress gave me a tour of, that included a disco ball and hammock  to enjoy.  And if  heights aren't your thing,  there was also a nice area with couches, and books for customers to relax in. 

The menu includes Breakfast (served all day), and assorted homemade muffins & cinnamon rolls. 

Lunch is served 10:30 to close and includes sandwiches, subs, pizza, soups, and salads. 
And if coffee or tea is your thing- you are all set at The Tree House!!

Randy orders The Big Z- ham, salami, pepperoni, smoked provolone, Italian dressing, lettuce, tomato, and banana peppers.  He also has a side salad, and soup of the day Potato Cheddar


I ordered Le Sandwich- thin sliced ham, chicken and Swiss, lettuce, tomato and mayo.  I also had a side of potato salad.  And the bread was YUMMY!!! 



The staff was super friendly, all 3 of them!! They can sign us up as regulars and, for my family working in the area, call me I will meet you there for lunch!!!

A hidden gem in downtown Zanesville, highly recommended from these bloggers!!!

See you The Tree  at House!!

A weekend trip to the Kentucky Speedway for a race with Robert and Lori- takes to the Montgomery Inn.  They had been here before and highly recommended  it. 

First let me say for a BBQ establishment...

The view was VERY nice!!

We stared with Onion Straws and Saratoga Chips with barbecue sauce on the side, "pretty tasty"



And then we ordered Crostini- and I quote "Best Shit Ever", "Really Good"!! Thin slices of French bread topped with our own blend of crumbled bleu cheese, diced tomatoes, basil, oregano and a sprinkling of four Italian cheeses.  Lightly toasted to warm your palate. 


Now for our lunches- Let's start with our guest: Lori ordered a BLT Salad with Ranch- The name says it all.  Applewood smoked bacon, crisp greens, fresh tomato and cheddar cheese.  They recommend their homemade Ranch dressing. 


Robert ordered the Pulled Pork Barbecue with Baked Potato and a side of Cole Slaw - Lean cuts of pork, slow smoked for 16 hours, pulled and mixed with Montgomery's world famous barbecue sauce. 

I ordered the All American Burger with a Baked Potato and a side of Cole Slaw - Specially ground 8-oz burger, grilled to your liking, topped with your choice of cheese, lettuce, and tomato.


Randy ordered the Ribs King Wrap with a Baked Potato and a side of Cole Slaw- Famous rib meat, right off the bone, sautéed with onions and mushrooms and Montgomery's barbecue sauce, rolled in a flour tortilla filled with chipotle mayo and pepper jack cheese. 

And for Dessert with have Hollywood's Key Lime Pie with 4 spoons!!  Very nice presentation, "tart", "yummy"


We really enjoyed Montgomery Inn, would go back - anytime!! Our server Travis took excellent care of us- Thanks!!!  Only complaint "still burping up BBQ sauce 6 hours later", but we left with our belly full!!
