HOW IT WORKS
Stop riding the same loop. Find better stops.
Backroad Bars Guide helps you find better stops — without overthinking it.
If you use the site more than once, save it to your phone’s home screen. It works like an app and keeps it one tap away when you’re on the road.
Start with the Map.
Pick a direction.
Zoom out. Zoom in.
See what’s actually out there.
Tap a pin.
Check the stop.
Open it in Google Maps.
Ride.
No planning spreadsheets. No group debate.
When you want to narrow it down, hit the Bars page.
Search by town.
Search by name.
Scroll until something feels right.
Some are marked Backroads Picks — those are worth going a little out of your way for.
Others are solid, easy stops when you just need a drink and a reset.
Not every place is life-changing.
But it beats the same parking lot every weekend.
Know a bar we should be riding to?
Go to ‘Submit a Stop’ and send it in.
If we can ride there, it counts.
If it’s worth pulling over for, we’ll add it.
This guide is built from real miles and real riders. Not hype.
A portion of Backroad Bars proceeds is donated annually to Honor Flight, supporting veterans who served our country.
No hype. No dead ends.
Just better roads and better stops.
