The crossroads shopping center is maybe a 1/4 mile from the hotel. This center has a taco bell , McDonalds, Fudruckers, Cici's, Olive Garden, A japanese steakhouse, and More. Also there is a Chili's, Joes Crabshack, and steak and shake nearby.
One thing I would shy away from is the "Boardwalk Buffet" at the hotel for dinner. Breakfast isnt bad, but dinner is crazy horrible.
