Next door to The Gap Café, Hide & Horn is a bar inspired by the rugged poetry and untamed legacy of the Texas plains. Named for the lines that capture the soul of Texas:

“Texas grew from hide and horn. Stretched its rump along the plain. Texans plow up cattle-bones. Where the icy northers go. Humming tunes along the walls. While they kept the lowing herd. Gleams the sharp and crescent hoof. Jingle bridle-rein and spur.
Texas grew from hide and horn.”

Berta Hart Nance

At Hide & Horn, we serve up signature cocktails with bold character and time-worn charm, alongside a limited menu from The Gap Café that honors simple ingredients with refined, ranch-style flair. It’s a place to settle in, raise a glass, and toast to the stories that built this land, where the hoofbeats still echo, the wind still hums, and Texas still grows from hide and horn.

A quaint country cafe with a delicious breakfast, lunch & brunch menu. We loved it! Then we crossed the street to the Perini country market. So cute!

Just had lunch here and it was phenomenal. The chicken fry and their homemade fries are among if not the best I've ever had. Delicious homemade gravy.

I cannot express the nostalgia in this establishment. The floors and walls exude history. The coffee was fresh and hot. The food was fantastic! Absolutely worth it!

Mind-blowingly excellent food. I’m often amazed how good restaurants in tiny towns can be, and this place proves it again. I can honestly say I had some of the best fish tacos I’ve ever had here.
