Pike Road, AL has everything you could ask for in a small town in rural Alabama. Its crown jewel is the SweetCreek Farm Market, a local food mecca with sweet treats, baked goods, local honey, fresh produce, delicious ice cream and fro-yo, and even meat from local and regional farmers. While you’re there, don’t forget to try some of the town’s award-winning BBQ. 

Once you’ve filled up on BBQ, head over to the historical downtown district, where Veterans Park stands as a testament to the nation’s fallen while accommodating the town with a pavilion, ball field, and playground.
