Timber Valley - Hixton

This is the cleanest, nicest, least racist truck stop restaurant I have ever in my life encountered. The truck stop itself is the cleanest, nicest, least racist truck stop I've ever been to. And it is roughly half way between Milwaukee and Minneapolis, a trip I make not infrequently. Although their best meals are the not-healthy American breakfasts, they have great lunch and dinner choices too. More importantly, great pie and coffee. This is one of the best authentic White American cuisine restaurants I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. I could tell just peeking in the window getting gas (good prices) because all the customers are White Americans. Waitstaff friendly without being fake, efficient, and attentive. Although this is the sort of place where eating to being uncomfortably full is the norm, they also sell Amish chocolates, smoked meats, and other snacks for the road.

I was astonished at the Prime Rib. It was on par to some great steakhouses I 've eaten at. Very surprising for a combo gas station/restaurant. The server was pleasant and helpful. Outside of the truck stop feel it has a family restaurant vibe which is very homey. Prices were in line with an off the interstate dining restaurant.

I agree with the other comments... just passing through and a nice place, awesome customer service. Although nothing spectacular on the menu, it's just done well. Very clean, fast service and reasonably priced. On a last note, the coffee, black, nothing added brings back a childhood memory of my dads coffee he used to make... funny how this brought back a memory I wasn't expecting, but there you go... must be the brand but good stuff.

I travel between Milwaukee and Minneapolis regularly and the Hixton Travel Plaza featuring the Timber Valley Restaurant is the must stop place. The food is top notch. Really. I've had some of the best meals at this little gem. I found this by accident pulling off the interstate in a terrible storm 4 years ago and this is now my go to place on the road. Breakfast, lunch or dinner you are sure to get a great meal.

Timber Valley Restaurant is a solid choice. Always good food. I have not ever been disappointed. Friendly wait staff and very accommodating even thru this pandemic garbage. I would recommend this restaurant to all who pass this way. Like I said, you can't go wrong here! Happy travels to all!
