Seven Decades on the Corner

SteelWheel Corner Diner has been a Benton fixture since 1952 — right where US-411 meets Main Street. What started as a modest counter-service spot for traveling salesmen and local mill workers has grown into something the whole town claims as its own.

We don't chase trends. Our recipes haven't changed because they don't need to. The same skillet you had in 1987 tastes just as good today, and our coffee is still poured fresh, straight from the pot.

Whether you're pulling into town after a long drive or grabbing a quick bite before your next appointment, there's a seat waiting for you here. That's the SteelWheel promise.
