besides food, back in the day. you can't get more authentic western then this place. My greatest joy was playing music 🎶 on their old stage, and by the railroad tracks and station(Depot) across the street. 😎 miss and love this place ❤️

The Legal Tender Saloon & Eating House is a quirky and historic destination that offers a delightful dining experience. Beyond its charming atmosphere, it provides a nostalgic sense of authenticity, reminiscent of the old western days. The place is well-kept, featuring a limited but enjoyable menu with dishes like trout, chicken liver pate, and French toast special. Visitors often comment on the incredible atmosphere, with some enjoying the view across the railroad tracks and station (Depot) nearby. The service is friendly and efficient, with attentive staff who are accommodating and knowledgeable. Chef Murphy O’Brien’s dedication is evident in dishes like the mushroom soup, which is considered one of the greatest eaten. While some reviews mention mixed feelings about specific food items, diners appreciate the quality and taste of many options, including the green chili burger and kid burgers. The restaurant's bar area is nostalgic and perfect for craft cocktails, with some praising the bartender for excellent service and entertainment. The trout remains a standout dish, and desserts like rhubarb crisp and rhubarb crumble are highly recommended. The atmosphere hasn't changed much over the years, maintaining its historic charm and offering a great spot to disconnect, especially since there is no cell service. Despite its remote location, the staff work hard to provide a memorable experience, making The Legal Tender a place worth traveling for.
