New Quick Eating Options Now Open Near Kings Island Kings Island

Maybe you've been watching the construction at the corner of Kings Mills Drive and Kings Island Drive like we did.  We'd heard that a Chipotle was going into this new commerical building located at 2364 Kings Center Court in Mason (behind the Taco Bell and next to Powder Keg Harley Davidson).

First the Jimmy John's opened.  Specializing in sandwiches & subs, they've got a nice variety of options for you as either a 8" sub sandwich or on thick sliced 7-grain bread.  If the online system is up, you can order in advance & pick up.  They also deliver to a limited service area, or there's a drive thru on the back side of the building!  They're open daily 11 a.m. - 9 p.m. and extended closing May-August is midnight.

Next, in the middle the Dairy Queen opened up.  Now you've probably seen and tried their food over the years, for us, we mainly go for the BLizzards.  For some reason a great ice cream treat starting with BLiz just seems to attract us!  You'll have to go in for service, and Sunday-Thursday they're open 11 a.m. - 9:30 p.m., and Friday & Saturday they close at 11 p.m.

And Labor Day weekend, the Chipotle opened!  Burritos, salad bowls, & tacos are their specialty.  Now if you've been to a Chipotle before, you know the lines can get long but typically move fairly quickly, however we'd recommend going online and placing your order.  Just walk in, go straight to the cash register, pay the bill and you're on your way!  They're open daily 11 a.m. - 10 p.m.  And fyi, unlike most places that claim the salsa is hot, but has no zing at all?  Chipotle's hot actually leaves some tingle.  It's not dragon fire by any means, but at least it's not totally tame.

By the way, there isn't a HUGE indoor eating area for any of the three, so we expect the places will be packed during Kings Island's peak summer operating times.  We're happy to have a few new choices within a short drive of our home!

Never heard of Jimmy John's, but Chipolte is one of my favorites.  One of the few restaurants where one can get a meatless but absolutely delicious dish.  Chipolte is very popular here with new outlets opening often.

Lenn, I think JJ's is an expanding chain, so probably gets out your way some day, and we've enjoyed Chipotle over the years, but the nearest was about a 20 minute drive, so didn't make use of it very often.  This one is under 10 minutes, so we've hit the tipping point and will probably be making regular use of it when we're in a time crunch and cooking for the night isn't looking like a solid option.

We LOVE Jimmy Johns and Chipotle here in San Antonio Tx.  If you are looking for a QUICK lunch, Jimmy Johns is the place to go.  They have your sandwich ready in mere moments and they have all kinds of cool ones.  My favorite is the Vito with peppers, (it's Italian)!  And of course Chipotle does everything fresh. 

Ok, I will stop talking now...I am making myself hungry :)!

Brenda, I tried the Vito the other day as my first JJ's sub.  Good, but I think next time I might order the extra meat :)  Bill

Tish, Only another 2-3 hours to wait :)

B&L - one question: do you order Blizzards when you go to Dairy Queen? They are darn good!

Anita, I'll take most of this over Mickey D's any day.

Kristine, It's about the ONLY thing we get from them!  During the summer, we may stop 2-3 times a summer.  I'm partial to the Hawaiian with the pineapple, coconut and banana :)  Bill

You cant beat a Dairy Queen Blizzard.  Snicker's is my favorite.

Rodney, Snickers isn't bad either!  When they get them made and they're thick and not soupy, perfect for a hot summer day!

I'll have to remember this for next summer.  We visit family in Tipp City every summer and then try to take the kids to a big attraction.  We are due for Kings Island next summer.

Nancy, At least you've got a few more options while you're here!  There's also all the usual fast food joints in the same general vicinity, and for something a little more local flavored, look up "Blue Ash Chili".  They're around the corner on either Western Row or Tylersville Road.  Huge double decker sandwiches and of course Cincinnati style chili, which I'll assume you've encountered before?  Let's just say it's totally unlike Texas style chili :)

I am familiar with the Cincinnati style chili (if that is what you call it).  I'll keep this in mind for our next trip back east.
