5 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Terlingua

“Stopped in mid-morning for a refreshing drink and absolutely fell in love with this spot! The patio is gorgeous—rustic, peaceful, and full of West Texas charm. A friendly little roadrunner even made an appearance, which totally made my day. Service was quick and friendly, and the whole place just has a laid-back, welcoming vibe. I’ll definitely be back to try breakfast or lunch next time I’m in Terlingua!“

“Our go to place for cocktails after a day of hiking. Friendly staff and just a laid back cool place to hang out. Thanks Gumby!“

“High Sierra Bar & Grill is a must-stop if you’re anywhere near Ghost Town, Texas. The margaritas are some of the best I’ve had—perfectly balanced, not too sweet, and just the right kick. Their tostadas were fresh, flavorful, and generously topped—definitely recommend trying them. What really makes this place special, though, is the atmosphere. It’s incredibly welcoming, laid-back, and full of character. They’re also super pet-friendly, which was a huge plus for us. Our pup was treated like family and felt right at home on the patio. The staff was warm, attentive, and genuinely kind—hospitality at its finest. Whether you’re just passing through or staying in the area, High Sierra offers a great taste of local charm with good food, strong drinks, and even stronger vibes.“

“Stopped by Venga Café in Terlingua for breakfast before heading into Big Bend, and it totally blew me away. From the outside, it looks like a quiet little café—but once inside, I was surprised by the incredible interior. It’s filled with colorful local art, creative decor, and even a small gift shop with unique finds. The food and coffee were great, but it’s the vibe that really made it special. It feels like a mix between a café, gallery, and community hangout. Highly recommend stopping here—it’s a must-visit spot if you’re passing through West Texas.“

“Excellent meats cooked perfectly. We like the new location, too.“
