Roadtrippers might be what you are looking for.

You enter the route you want to take, choose a distance from that route and the site will find things of interests according to what categories you selected.

(Note that I am not aware if it works well outside the US. It’s possible that the site won’t find points of interest.)

Google Maps now has this feature built-in:

  1. Start navigating from your current location by car:

  1. Select a pre-defined POI type or search for something else:

Voila! You now have a list of locations to visit, as well as how much time the visit would add to your drive.

Similar to @rvs’s comment, I have also used “Tripadviser”‘s app which gives you such feature. Wherever you are, just go to the app and you can choose what kind of attractions, … you are interested in.
Although, since it is mostly based on reviews and feedback, it may not be so informative for all locations.
By the way, watch out for the battery usage on your phone (or tablet). It consumes a lot!
