by Evan on Dec.29, 2011, under Fly 4 Food
As our first review of a Fly4Food destination, we have to mention Lambert’s Cafe. Located in Sikeson, MO, Lambert’s Cafe is a true pilot-friendly destination. Lambert’s is a short drive from the Sikeston Airport, and a free shuttle is provided. The restaurant is incredibly popular, especially on the weekends, but don’t worry, if you fly in, they’ll take you in the back door and seat you immediately.
