Miguels was opened by Miguel and Susan Ventura in 1984 as an ice cream shop that was soon to transform into a homemade pizza restaurant for the next 27 years that served a seasonal tourism trade.Home grown vegetables from the garden as well as homemade dough and sauce made those seasonal customers to return every year. Through time Miguels developed as a gathering place for tourist,hikers, bikers, rock climbers, hunters, photographers, birdwatchers ,arch hunters,cavers, naturalist and outdoor enthusiast of all ages all coming to enjoy the red river gorge area and Natural Bridge State Park’s beauty. Miguels befriended the climbing community that was coming from around the country and world that had discovered the hidden world class rockclimbing quality that the rock structure has here that is unique and maybe the best in the country. Funds raising for the Red River Gorge Climbers Coaliton helped the groups get their start.What started as a message center for that community developed into a campground, gear shop and rental business all dediticated specifically for climbers. Miguels Pizza Restaurant is open from 7 am til 9:45 every day except they close Dec 1 thru March 1.Sit down as well as take out service are available with a lot of people calling ahead to avoid the crowds. Tourist showing up at the brink of exhaustion and hunger can quickly rejuevenate with high quality and fairly priced good food and many leave feeling that the pizza was the best they ever had. |
