Every town should have an awesome sports bar, and Buck's is Rawlins' own. It's the place to go for burgers and brews and watching the game. The menu at this sports bar extends beyond the typical hamburgers and nachos, however. When you visit Buck's you'll want to try their brand of bar food like the brisket hoagie, beer-battered brats, mac n' cheese wedgies, or chicken fried steak - and when you're in the mood for pizza, Buck's Sports Grill is the place to go.

Who knew you could get really great Thai food in Rawlins? The veggies are super-fresh, cooked only after you make your order, and the pad thai is something to write home about. Other tasty dishes from the menu include rad nha, halibut with ginger sauce, basil mussels, and a selection of curry dishes. With lip-smacking treats like lava cake, tiramisu, and fried bananas with ice cream, you'll want to save room for dessert or make an order to go and take it home for later.
Hours: Monday - Friday, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturdays 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
You gotta have a good sandwich shop as well as a place to get a really great cup of coffee. In Rawlins, Huckleberry's is both, and it's a bakery, too, so you can always find something delicious and satisfying.
Start your day right with a big cuppa joe and a scone or bagel, or try a breakfast sandwich on a croissant. They also have an epic version of biscuits and gravy that includes tater tots, sausage, and cheese. For lunch, order a bowl of hot homemade soup to go with one of the mouthwatering sandwiches on the menu like the chipotle turkey on sourdough, or build your own.
