Big Nose Kate's Saloon — Restaurant in Tombstone

We went down to watch bobby play. 11-29-24 We've done this a few weekends. And the experience has always been great. accept for this weekend. I have never had a waitress so rude. She was a heavy set blonde. It took a while, but when she came to get our drink orders, we were also ready to order food. My husband ordered a bloody mary. She asked him if he wanted the special one that comes with a pickled egg and a beef stick. He said sure. I told her I also wanted a bloody mary. She asked if I wanted a spicy or not.I said not spicy. Then goes back and asked my husband again what he wanted. He said the bloody mary not spicy. She then tells us that we are stressing her out with our order. So we told her just 2 bloody marys.And that we were ready to order food. Said she wasn't ready to take our food order and we needed to wait till our drinks came. She did come back with our drinks and took our food order. But you could tell she was not very happy. And I can understand she was very busy. We had two more friends show up. We were sitting at a very small round table. We asked her if we could get a bigger table. She wanted to know how many more people were coming. We told her two more. So we had a total of five people at that time sitting at a small table. We explained that we didn't mind waiting to get back on the list to get the bigger table. It seemed like that really made her mad. She rudely told us that the bigger table would not hold our party. We finally got our food. With no utensils. My husband got up and asked her for utensils. She rudely told him they were on the table. He explained to her that we did not get utensils. She then asked why we needed them. He had to explain to her that our friend had a salad and didn't want to eat it with her fingers. She rudely gave him a few sets. Our two other friends end up showing up. So we put two chairs against the wall for them. After a while, our two friends got up and sat at a dirty table next to us. At this time, it wasn't that busy. So they thought it would be ok. The next thing they know, she comes back over and tells them.They can stand at the bar, but they could not sit at that table. So they came back to sit with us. Some gentlemen cleared the table and told them it was okay to sit there. So three of our friends moved over to the new table. Next thing I know, here she comes again and tells me at the small table with only three sitting at, that I need to leave the round table or get put on a weight list to sit there. I hadn't even paid my bill yet. I told her to get my bill and that I was going to be leaving.I don't deserve to be treated so rudely. She sent somebody else with my bill, and I paid it and left. My husband had been outside smoking his cigarette when all this happened. He had been talking to the bouncer. He was telling the bouncer about how rude the waitress was. The bouncer proceeded to tell him that that was his girlfriend. And that the bartender had been on her ass all night long and not to take it out on her. And that it was the bartender that told her we had to move tables. And that she was. Only doing what the bartender told her to do. Now we were not even close to where the bar was, so I don't know how the bartender would even see us at the table. In all my years, I have never been treated so poorly at any establishment. I'm a very understanding person.Especially when it's busy, I can give them a little leeway. But I will not take nonstop rudeness. And I understand that Tombstone is a tourist destination. But if you're going to treat locals like this.What's to say that a tourist isn't being treated the same way. They come to have a...

Worst place we visited in Tombstone. Our family visited Big Nose Kate's Saloon on Tuesday evening, Oct. 8. We went because many people around town said it was a "must visit" in town. We were also told they had great live music music and shows. Granted, the establishment has a lot of history, which definitely puts it on the map for places to see, but it was not customer friendly when we visited and their menu and cleanliness left a lot to be desired. It was dinner time. We waited to be seated as the sign requested. A young male waitperson yelled (hollered) across the restaurant for us to sit anywhere we liked. We went to a table and he then hollered back at us to not sit at that table because it was for bigger parties and pointed to another table for us to sit. Apparently "sit anywhere" does not mean "anywhere." The table he pointed to was dirty (smeared with grease and crumbs). He came by, almost tipped over our table by leaning on it heavily, apologized and said "wow, that's a wobbly table." He took our drink order, brought them to us after a long delay, and then disappeared for a little over 15 minutes before returning. In that time we decided that the menu was little more than one would expect at any crappy bar like Applebee's or such. Nothing special at all, but with high tourist prices (naturally). We grew frustrated. We asked another waitperson about the music we were told about. He said he didn't know if there would be anything else that day. Um, if he doesn't know, then who does? We asked him for our drink check, paid, and left... annoyed. We then went to The Longhorn Restaurant and had a great meal with...

We went into Big Nose Kate’s to get a drink. My son had just bought a coffee somewhere else. We saw the sign on the door and asked the hostess if he could come in as he had just bought the coffee. She said yes and that we could sit at the bar. After sitting there for 15 minutes watching the bartender serve other people and then talk to his co worker for 5 minutes, he finally came over to get our order. He started making my sister in laws drink and then told my son he would have to leave if he kept his drink. I told him that the hostess had said he could come in with it and he had just bought it. He was rude and said he didn’t care he could stay but his drink could not. So I said okay, we leave then. About 30 minutes later we met up with the rest of our group. It is a tradition for my sister to have a drink there every time they are here. We went back in and he looked at me and told me to leave. He was not serving me because I was RUDE. If saying that the hostess said he could bring his coffee in and then him being RUDE to my son, I probably was a little rude. I stood up and said okay, we will leave then. I have always enjoyed the atmosphere there and having a drink but I would not recommend going somewhere , spending your hard earned dollars to be treated so inappropriately. I’m sure he’s comfortable treating guests this way since they’re a tourist trap and hardly ever see the same guest twice; thank goodness for reviews to warn people of bartenders with a power trip. I live in Arizona and go there a lot when company comes out. I grew up in a tourist town but I guess my parent’s taught...
