The Old Filling Station Restaurant The Old Filling Station Great old time throwback place that goes perfectly with the turf runway adjacent to the small town of Benton, PA! Located at 140 Main St, Benton, PA 17814, this is a gem of a place if you like non-chain, home cooked meals with personal service. See web site for times, but the menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner is all good! Fly in and enjoy! This is an especially great place to visit during FALL FOLIAGE SEASON where you can go "leaf-peeping" by air and then drop in for a great lunch or early dinner. I would recommend against flying in or out in the dark due to higher terrain around the landing area. Mike Marra, Keystone Flight Rating You must login to view or submit ratings.
