Neil Ballard built the Hillside Tavern in the late 1920's. There were a few cabins out back and gas pumps out front, all those are gone. A fire in 1955 heavily damaged the second floor, but it was rebuilt, not the way you see it here. The front section seen here with the unusual window arrangement is a fairly recent addition. This is shortly before you come to the Beaver Creek Bridge a few miles west of the Zeno's site in Rolla.

It is located next to the old Pinga's Restaurant.
