This location is closing and from Friday 5-16-2014 until the next Wednesday, the restaurant is auctioning off everything to the general public...the arrowheads, Indian Head nickles, wood burning stoves and even the bar. I think I might head up there and see if I can snag anything.
I have mixed feelings about this location closing. I never like the food here at all. I thought the steaks were bleh and their fried zucchini (which I always like elsewhere) was gross as well. The only thing I liked (which I never like any place else) were the potato skins.
Even though I sort of hated it, any friend or relative who came to town always wanted to go there. It must be featured in some guide books. They were always excited and enjoyed the food. Maybe it was just me or maybe they were so hyped up about being in someplace similar to what they thought the wild west should be, they overlooked the dull food.
I wonder if the closing had to do with the deceased person who was found in the chuck wagon out front last year. I don't think it made the news (don't know why), but I was at the Walmart across the street when people came running from the restaurant screaming (for no reason) and when the coroner pulled up..
Well, I hate to see you go Bill Johnson's, I may not have liked your food, but you sure were a great way to entertain and appease visitors from out of state and make me come across as a cool host..
