Just okay- maybe prior reviews were paid?? Too much lime juice in all the drinks- they all taste the same (a margarita shouldn’t taste the same as a drink with sparkling wine). Try seasoning some the food with salt. Crab cakes - eh, spouse says chicken fried steak was good. Bar has about 20 seats, way too crowded for a 10x20 space. Drinks $10-20, food $20-50. Not worth the drive to the middle of no where TX.; maybe try Marfa or Alpine? This place is fake trendy for a 40+ crowd. The longer we were here the worse it got. Probably could have walked out and no one notice…

Good bar next to the Gage. They only have bottled beer but plenty of liquor amd cocktail options. Food is good but pricey I suggest eating at the BBQ placs next door. Overrall worth a visit if in Marathon.

Part of the Gage hotel. Nice little bar with a resort type feel. Good selection of alcohol, they'll make you the drink you want. Friendly bar staff.

Had couple of drinks, bartender was not social, I was only 1 in . Until my friends showed up, then went to patio. Bar guy was too busy listening to his music and getting shop set up to visit. No food available.

We were looking forward to this place. We had been told that the burger here was the best a friend had ever had. Imagine our utter astonishment when we went in and told we couldn't be seated without reservations. We were directed to the bar, as we stood there lost not a single person on the staff said hello, can I help you, wait a minute. We left after making reservations. The next night we learned there are actually two establishments and the bar is were we could get a burger. I have to say the burger was excellent and may well be the best I have ever had, but the sad fact is 2 women in a bar that don't order drinks become absolutely invisible. The server more than once walked away while we were talking to her and had to ask for a check and then had to ask for her to take our payment. The food was great but I refuse to pay to be disrespected and will never return or recommend this place.

We just started making the White Buffalo Bar a yearly stop for us on our way to Lajitas. Unfortunately we won’t be returning. The atmosphere is amazing but the bar service was horrible. The female bartender who was working the evening of Dec. 27th needs to be taught customer service. Not only was she non welcoming when we sat at the bar, she was very rude to my husband when he asked for a second drink. Her response was, “it’s going to be a while, I’m having to make drinks for the restaurant as well”. We have NEVER had a response like this especially when it was obvious that the other bartender was making drinks for the wait staff. We patiently waited and she never made my husband his drink. She decided to stand back and have conversation with the other bartender while neither of them were making drinks. I’m sure it’s hard to staff restaurants and establishments in these remote locations, but I would think a place such as the Gage Hotel/White Buffalo Bar would do better in hiring who represents them.

The dinner was very delicious, the place is quite nice. The perfect place to dine and have a good time with friends and family next to the fireplace. Everything is very nice. The only thing that wasn't delicious was the Brisket that comes with the nachos. It was very dry and not at all pleasant.
The Chicken Fried Steak is very delicious and the Chicken Tenders are also very good,👍
