Well, howdy there! Let me tell ya ’bout gettin’ some grub in Marfa, Texas. It ain’t nothin’ fancy, but a hungry belly don’t care much ’bout fancy, ya know?
First off, if you’re lookin’ for a quick bite, somethin’ to grab and go, there’s this place called Marfa Para Llevar. I ain’t sure what that means, but they got food, and that’s all that matters. They got them burritos, big ol’ things stuffed with meat and beans. Good for fillin’ ya up fast. Folks seem to like ’em, always seein’ people walkin’ around with ’em.
Now, if you got a bit more time and wanna sit a spell, there’s a few places. The Water Stop, that’s a good’un. They got all sorts of things, sandwiches and salads and such. I ain’t much for salads myself, but my niece, she likes ’em. Says they got good ones there. And the sandwiches, they’re hearty, ya know? Enough to keep ya goin’.
Then there’s Aster’s Cafe and Bakery. Now, that’s a place for somethin’ sweet after your meal. They got them cakes and pies and cookies, all sorts of goodies. My grandbaby, she loves their cookies. Always beggin’ me to take her there. They got regular food too, but it’s the sweets that draw folks in, I reckon.
And if you’re lookin’ for somethin’ a bit more…well, I guess you could say upscale, there’s Bee’s Hive Restaurant and Capri. I ain’t been to them myself, too pricey for my taste. But I hear they got good food, fancy stuff. If you got the money to spend, go ahead and try ’em out. Folks say they’re somethin’ special.
Bar Saint George and Jett’s Grill, those are other places folks talk about. I think Jett’s is more of a burger joint, you know, the kind with greasy fries and big juicy burgers. Can’t go wrong with a good burger, I always say. Bar Saint George, I ain’t too sure about that one, but I hear it’s a good place to get a drink and maybe a bite to eat.
- For a quick bite: Marfa Burritos or Marfa Para Llevar
- For a sit-down meal: The Water Stop or maybe The Sentinel Marfa
- For somethin’ sweet: Aster Marfa is your best bet.
- If you’re feeling fancy: Bee’s Hive Restaurant or Capri
- For burgers and fries: Jett’s Grill
Now, if you ask me, the best way to find a good place to eat is to just walk around and see what smells good. That’s how I always do it. And don’t be afraid to ask the locals, they’ll point you in the right direction. They know where the good food is at.
Marfa’s got a bunch of cafes too. I ain’t much for coffee, but if you like that stuff, you’ll find plenty of places to get it. Just look around, you’ll see ‘em. They got all sorts of fancy coffee drinks now, not just that plain black stuff we used to drink.
So, there you have it, a little rundown of where to get lunch in Marfa. It ain’t a big city, but there’s enough places to keep your belly full. Just remember, the best food ain’t always the fanciest, it’s the stuff that fills ya up and makes ya feel good. And don’t forget to try the local specialties, whatever they might be. That’s the best way to get a real taste of a place, ya know?
And one last thing, don’t be shy about askin’ for extra napkins. Some of this food can be messy, especially them burritos! You don’t wanna be walkin’ around with sauce all over your face, now do ya?
Anyways, that’s all I got to say about lunch in Marfa. Hope it helps ya find somethin’ good to eat. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go find myself a bite. All this talk about food’s made me hungry!
Remember, when in doubt, just follow your nose and your appetite. You can’t go wrong with that!
