Our Story

A neighborhood table,
made for the road.

Arlene's Truck Stop is built for the people moving through Battle Creek — with a hot counter, a half-dozen stools at the counter, and a pot of coffee that never stops passing.

We're the kind of place where the burgers get hand-pattied every morning, the spaghetti sauce is Arlene's own, and the chili has been holding its title longer than any of us care to count.

Bring the family. Bring the dog. Bring the whole rig — there's a booth, a corner and a hot plate ready for you on W Columbia Ave.
