My husband and I were in Britt for a memorial for my brother, The last day of our trip we were looking for a great pork tenderloin sandwich. We Googled it and learned about the Tenderloin Trail. It lead us to the Belmond Drive-In. Wowser! Best tenderloin ever, Breaded not coated, great flavor and the pork was tender and juicy. Staff was friendly and inviting. We will be sure to return next time we're in Iowa.

The best pork tenderloin sandwich I’ve ever eaten!! They are hand tenderized and the breading is perfection.

As I am in search of the best tenderloins, I came across the Belmond Drive Inn. I read that this place has one of, if not the best, in the star of Iowa. I’m happy to report, it is one of the best. Top two for me, and it was WORTH the little stop. It’s at a little cafe, with great service, and unique, old school interior.
