Bunkhouse Bar & Grill

Top choice in Wyoming


West of Cheyenne on the W-210, this storied steakhouse is worth the trip. Around since 1898, they've learned a thing or two about local tastes – burgers, steaks and similar predilections rule. The house specialty is the remarkable Bunk-Nut Sandwich with fried Rocky Mountain oysters with American cheese on Texas toast… There's even live music on Friday and Saturday evening.
