I have not heard of the spot they have listed for New Mexico, but I know where it is. Canyon Rd is a great spot with some wonderful restaurants. El Farol (the bar/restaurant listed) also has a Flamenco Dance going on Thur/Fri/Sat - which would be really cool to see during dinner. I love the dancing and classical guitar playing that accompanies it. My nephew is a musician, classically trained and plays this genre of music and I love it!
but if anyone visits NM - check out this spot, or at least Canyon Rd for the restaurants and art galleries
Thanks for posting this article. Fun to read!-
I also recommend Tomasita’s for a casual, party-like vibe and Sazon for an upscale, more formal experience. -
WayneT - yes on Tomasita’s! Another great New Mexican restaurant there is Maria’s. A fun spot is Coyote Cafe - especially the roof top cantina
But my absolute favorite restaurant is Geronimo. It’s one of my favorite restaurants anywhere. Not cheap, but definitely worth a visit.

Wyoming: Miners and Stockmen’s Steakhouse (1862). We ate there about three years ago. Beautiful bar, fun experience. The steaks were ok but the atmosphere was fantastic.

Spent many nights in my younger days at Kelly's Logan House in Wilmington DE.
Some I remember, some I don't...🤷♂️
still a great place for local music.
I've been to one other on the list as well. On a trip to Boston 2 summers ago, we randomly ended up having dinner at Warren Tavern in Charlestown. Very cool old place.
Can just imagine the number of pints shared amongst some of our founding fathers oh so many years ago..Comment

Might have to make some additions to the bucket list!!

Oregon: Huber’s (1879)
Would you believe me if I told you Oregon’s oldest bar is best known for its… turkey? When Jim Huber took over the Bureau Saloon in 1891, he insisted that every drink come with a free turkey sandwich, and soon, the hub was full of people knocking back brews with one hand and chowing down with the other. The bar’s famous turkey actually helped save it during Prohibition, as the cafe remained popular when it switched to just serving turkey dinners. While the sandwiches are no longer free, guests can still eat Huber’s signature turkey today.
I've never gone to Huber's and I am not a big fan of turkey either, so maybe I never will. Doesn't look that great inside either.

I have never been to the one in Florida, or even ever been to Fernandina Beach. I have, though, been to the Virginia one. I used to live in Abingdon, Virginia for many years, where the Tavern is located. I worked at the hospital a couple blocks from The Tavern. The Tavern is reportedly the oldest building in town, just down Main Street from another relic the Martha Washington Inn. I've eaten dinner at both too many times to count, never really spent time at the Tavern bar unless I was waiting for someone, and it is interesting. A historic building, made into a restaurant and bar, where the tourists want to eat dinner, and the locals show up in their work clothes and barn boots, for a few drinks at the end of the day. A very small town where you can get a call, and the owner will bring a corded phone to your table. We used to have a urologist on staff that I could guarantee I'd reach, in the evenings from the ER, if I just called The Tavern and asked them to take the phone to him.Comment

THIS is cool!
Oddly, I'd always heard the Mustang Lounge on Mackinac Island was Michigan's oldest bar/tavern. Signs inside there say so anyway. Regardless, cool stuff. Thanks for posting, WayneTComment
