Nestled deep in the rolling hills of the Santa Ynez Mountains, sits a colorful slice of what life was like in the 19th century American West. Originally a stagecoach stop (beginning in 1886), the area is now home to a restaurant, bar, performance stage, events venue, and gift shop.

If your tastes favor traditional American cuisine, this is your stop.

 Beer battered onion rings, burgers, tri-tip, chili, baby back pork ribs, biscuits and gravy, they serve a hearty meal

 

 

 

If you were to stop off the side of the road On the weekends, it transforms into a thriving and bustling. The air is filled with laughter, chatter, live music, and the smell of BBQ.
