Most of my travel has not been for pleasure, so interstate was the way to go. Most times, if I have had to take sudden action, it is not on the limited access highways. I don't recommend anybody in a moving vehicle not strapped down, but side roads are not the place to do it.

Did quite of out-of-state travel this year, and had no problems with sit-down eating in every state *except* for Illinois and Indiana.
Businesses are hurting everywhere, so every chance we have to help keep restaurant workers employed, we do.

I think you're nuts. This Covid ere last thing I would want to do is enter some random roadhouse for a meal.
Eat out of your fridge,but if you are desperate for a SYSCO generic meal, I am sure that you can find a place with a walk up window.
You can stretch your legs on any piece of land that is not an interstate shoulder.
Do not plan to enter anywhere without mask or eat inside. It's either outdoor dining or in the MH.

Over the years traveling to, and from, Texas we've utilized about all the ways to get meals on the road. It usually depends on what our schedule (if any), location, and whims dictate. We've stopped for fuel and gone in to a sit-down restaurant or fast food joint. Sometimes we'll get a fast food burger and take it with us, eating going down the road. Other times, after getting fuel, we'll pull into a parking space and have lunch in the trailer. And we've also pulled over into a rest area, made lunch, and eaten it either in the trailer or at one of the shaded picnic tables. Depending on the weather, the latter is my f
avorite. Hope this helps.
Yep we have done it all ways as well.

Devil,
I guess I don't understand. You have a class C correct? Doesn't have a galley with a reefer and stuff? Why are you stopping at places for crumby food. Just bring the good stuff with you. Then, all you have to find is a flat quiet place. Not only will the food be better, but way cheaper too.
Did you not provision prior to departure?? Most grocery stores have BIG lots and are easy to park in.
If you are traveling the blue roads outside of urban areas, you might even do the kid feed underway.

We are self contained in the C for sure and always stock refrig, etc. However, there are times I will want to stretch legs and go sit down for meal somewhere, no just fast food stops...assume places on road/interstates and at rest stops are open and have outdoor seating. I have not been interstate since last year prior to COVID so just asking what everyone's experience is throughout the states.

We just pull off the road (rest areas on interstates, large turnouts on other roads) and fix our own meals. Cheaper and less bother.

Being able to make or reheat one's own food is a big advantage. A can of soup and a sandwich makes for a substantial lunch that doesn't take much time to prepare, nor costs a lot of money.
