Dock and dine with my insider’s guide of Table Rock Lake restaurants to anchor your boat – and appetite! I have compiled a complete list of Table Rock Lake restaurants on the water, accessible by water and with a view with hours, menu, docking details, a map and more!
Table Rock Lake is nestled in Southwest, Missouri and boasts beautiful views, clear water and an abundance of outdoor fun. It spans over 43,000 acres and 745 – 850 miles of shoreline (depending on the pool level), with fewer restaurants, marinas and docks than nearby Lake of the Ozarks.
As a lifelong visitor and part-time resident of 10 years, we have dined at nearly every restaurant on this comprehensive list and documented all the details so you plan the perfect day on the lake with amazing stops along the way!
Tip
Bookmark this list for easy reference on the water. Restaurants, docking and hours frequently change and this list is updated often for your convenience.
