Buckhorn Saloon (Food Service)

Full discolsure - - My brother works a bartender at the Buckhorn, and my sister has recently been asked to help out occaisionally as a waitress.

I haven't voted on the results, though if I were to do so I would rate their food and service as "Great." I especially enjoy the Sunday special of short ribs, which co-owner Alice begins cooking either Saturday night or Sunday Morning, (you won't find better this side of Colorado, IMHO) along with their Ortega Jack hamburger, and finally co-owner Curtis' chili, which he will not allow to be served until the day after its prepared.

I've never eaten there or anywhere in North Fork for that matter...where is it exactly? I haven't been to "downtown" North Fork in a long time. Just the Logger's Jamboree.

they need to work on the parking matters though. no place to park.

Well, "downtown" North Fork is only about 1/2 mile SW of the recreation center.

In the attached picture from Google Earth, you can see road 274 coming from Bass Lake in the lower left hand corner of the image, as a yellow road (Note that when coming from Oakhurst you turn onto road 222 at Mountain House Restaurant, and this becomes rd 274).

From rd 274 when it hits a 3 way stop, you would make a left to go to the North Fork rec center, or a right to go to 'downtown' North Fork, where the Buckhorn Saloon is located.

Now, "Downtown" North Fork is only about 2 to 3 blocks long. Don't sneeze, or you'll miss it.
