Cool western historic bar/restaurant that occasionally has live music. It also has lots of animal heads on the walls.

The heart of Buffalo, this historic Hotel, holds a trove of historic artifacts and stories. Built in 1908 on the original site of Charles Buell’s log structure that was destroyed by fire, the lobby is where Owen Wister sat writing character sketches of frontiersman as they came through the hotel. He used these in his monumental novel The Virginian. Be sure to see the archival photographs in the photo gallery of such guests as Ernest Hemingway. The Tea room, whose back bar on the west wall is the original to the 1882 clapboard annex to the log hotel. This is where the ladies and children would gather while the men folk would gather in the saloon catching up on the latest happenings . A lady would never have entered a saloon prior to prohibition. The saloon sports twenty-six bullet holes, five which are still visible. It truly was the Wild West! The stately back bar which was built in Glasgow, Scotland is the original as well as the piano and green felt poker table. Although not available to visitors a Prohibition Saloon lies beneath the floor of the Saloon. Where the candy shop occupies space, was the original barbershop which was in use until about twenty years ago. The Virginian. One of Buffalo’s few African Americans shined shoes here for over thirty years. He was so well respected, the entire business district shut down for his funeral. The bath house, the small area of the Occidental Art Gallery was the bath house. It was used both by men and women. Towns people often made appointments for a shave, haircut and bath and of course it was used by hotel guests, From the saloon, enter The Virginian restaurant. The first dining room was a mercantile (general store). The next rooms were The Stockman’s Bank. At the far end of the hotel where Lolly’s bakery exists you will find the original bank vault.
