Blackie's Bait Shop - WALNUT SPRINGS

We ventured out to Walnut Springs to check out Blackie's Bait Shop for ourselves after receiving high recommendations. What a great place! Dobber, the owner, is so cordial and friendly. Speaks to everyone before heading to the kitchen to cook your delicious steaks! After the meal, cross the street for Blackie's After Dark for an entertaining night at the piano bar, then stay upstairs for a restful night of sleep. All conveniently located. We had a great time!

I really enjoyed the ribeye and the atmosphere was great as well..

The best steak dinner and the coolest atmosphere! I take all my friends to get away from the commercial kitchens!

Great food in the middle of nowhere!Quite a small town.We drive over when visiting the Whitney area.A true classic reminiscent of the wild west.Dauber and his wife are excellent hosts.Be sure to call the day before and reserve or “guarantee” a steak for you.Excellent steak at a very reasonable price.The Hemingway sandwich is excellent but does take a bit of time to be made.Have a few drinks while waiting, the skinny margarita would be a good choice ; Parking: There usually plenty of parking on the street. Did I say it is a small town?

Drove 1-1/2 hours just to try the famous Rib-eye steak. It was so worth it I would have driven 2-1/2 hours. Will be back soon. Great food, service, drinks, atmosphere and even had live music.
