The Bunkhouse — Restaurant in Arthur

The BunkHouse offers a basic bar menu. There are a variety of hamburgers to choose from. Our food was cooked to order and the waitress/cook filled our water cups several times. Bud Light and Coors Light were on tap. The locals called each other by first names and sat down with a group already at the bar. I really liked the outdoor patio, with fire ring and large rocks for seating. One day I would like to take advantage of the local city park with trailer/RV camping pads and public restrooms. You could probably pitch a tent at the city park with very little hassle. We were the newbies in town and were interested in the history the bar provides. Several tables had epoxied pictures into the them. The bar had local town folks pictured on the wall...

We had the good fortune to nearly run out of gas in Arthur, and took a chance that one of the Bunkhouse's patrons could help us. The lovely young lady working on 23 November listened to our plight and sprang into action. After cooking and serving us a delicious lunch she scared up enough gas to get us to the next town with a service station. She didn't even seem to think it was a big deal. If you happen to be in the general vicinity of Arthur, there's no gas station, but the Bunkhouse is 110%...

Great memories at this Bar from the 1960's when stopping in on Saturdays while working hay fields for Mae Walz Estate North of town. Before fire when Charlie was proprietor. Later When Aunt Audry and her second husband owned it. Today, always stop in for a burger and fries while passing through visiting family there. Had many sodas there with Uncle Howard Hartman, who'd come over from the courthouse to meet me when I was in town for one...
