Places to eat

Just some restaurants in town (for anyone who might be visiting).

Big John's
Pizza, subs, etc. The 'Duke' sandwich is pretty tasty.

Subway
Where the old Sav-A-Trip used to be. The Google street view photo is of the place before they moved in. It now looks much better as a Subway than it ever did as a gas station...even though the pinball and Mortal Kombat games will be missed.

Walt's Resturant

Burgers and more. My granddad likes this place, so it's gotta be good.

Clearwater Golf Course (On the Range)

When I was in Clearwater it was always a good golf course with easy to get tee times. The main Clearwater page lists them as having a restaurant, but I would call ahead.

C-Bar
While I've been in the building many times when it was the old post office, I've not been there since it became the C-Bar. This is Clearwater's only bar. Next time I'm in town I'll be sure to stop in and see what their food options are. At least one web page lists them as a grill and tavern.

Clearwater

For the past 5-10 years this domain had been owned by a domain squatter who had bought up tons of website names, hoping to resell them. I noticed that ClearwaterKS.com had recently expired so I purchased it. Having grown up in Clearwater, and visiting when I can, I will try to do something positive with the domain. Until then, more information on Clearwater can be found here:
