RPG CAMPAIGN TOUR CHALLENGE 2026 Day 13-Where can we get a drink and a bite to eat?

Give us a few of your most notable restaurants and bars in the campaign setting. Tell us something about these places and what makes them distinctive.

The most unique restaurant in the area in the present day is the Samoa Cookhouse, effectively the last remaining lumberjack cookhouse. I'd like to see it continue into my setting, if possible. It is, as the name implies, in Samoa, across the bay from Ureka.

Meals are still served "cookhouse style:" a fixed menu with food brought out on serving platters so that each diner may serve themselves.

There's also a local dive bar called The Shanty that I think would be fun to keep around. Especially since it is a dive bar, but the collapse of civilization can cause a lot of recontextualization and idealization of a past that never was.

A friend of mine reminded me of a food truck called Speedy Taco that both of us enjoyed. The location that truck usually parked at is ratfolk territory according to my map. So I could go a number of directions. Maybe the humans took it when they tried to claim more territory, but couldn't hold the Broadway Cinema (where the truck was typically parked). Or it expanded to multiple Speedy Taco trucks and that becomes a recognizable brand throughout the area. Or maybe the ratfolk still have it and operate it, making tacos and burritos tuned to their diets.
