 Show Though a suburb of Tulsa, Oklahoma’s Broken Arrow is a city in its own right and has a vibrant dining scene to match. Here is our guide you to the city’s best culinary hotspots. Broken Arrow Trail | © Albert Herring/WikiCommons Cafe, Restaurant, American, Vegetarian Following the success of its first restaurant in the neighbouring town of Bixby, the owners of Apple Barrel Café set up another successful joint in Broken Arrow in early 2012. Offering patrons
breakfast, lunch and dinner alongside a number of daily specials, the Apple Barrel Café provides a homely, friendly atmosphere and a menu defined by high quality ingredients, hearty portions and traditional American classic dishes. Go for breakfast and opt for a pecan waffle of Spanish omelette or go for dinner and try an appetiser of fried green tomatoes followed by the fried catfish entrée served with tartar sauce, hush puppies and coleslaw. Bar, Restaurant, American, $$$ One of Broken Arrow’s most recent additions, the Bruhouse Grill opened in late 2013 in a prime downtown location in the scenic Rose District. Owned by restaurateur Travis Burton, the restaurant is located in a former drugstore and the stylish, modern space features original terrazzo
floors, exposed brick and a beautiful granite bar in its interior, while on warmer days guests can enjoy their evening outside on Bruhouse Grill’s sidewalk patio. The menu presents a mix of traditional and contemporary American fare with a variety of salads, sandwiches and burgers available alongside dishes like blackened seared tuna and handmade lobster ravioli. Cafe,
Restaurant, American, Vegetarian Locally owned and operated, the Egg It On Café is a popular Broken Arrow eatery serving breakfast, brunch and lunch items from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday to Sunday that first opened its doors in late 2008. As its name would suggest, Egg It On Café’s menu specialises in egg-based dishes, offering patrons a healthy and protein-filled start to the day with a range of omelettes, crepes and frittatas
available alongside other breakfast and brunch favourites like Belgian waffles and French toast. Dishes perfect for a lazy lunch include the California burger topped with jalapenos, avocado, salad and Monterey Jack cheese or the chicken finger platter with French fries, Okie toast and gravy. Bar, Cafe, Restaurant, American, $$$ Established by owner Tony Henry in the spring of 2013, the Full Moon Café is a neighbourhood bar and grill with a successful branch in Tulsa that has been in operation for almost 30 years. The restaurant has quite the reputation in Oklahoma and is famous for its tortilla soup and chicken margarita while a number of sandwiches, burgers and pastas are available alongside ‘neighbourhood favourites’ like New Orleans chicken served with new potatoes, sautéed mushrooms, onions and bell peppers. Not so hungry? Then relax with one of Full Moon Café’s 30 draught beers while enjoying live music like its legendary Duelling Piano Show. Restaurant, Mexican, $$$ An upscale Mexican grill and cantina, Los Cabos was established by the Blacketer family who recognised a gap in the market for fine Mexican fare. With three locations in Oklahoma, including its Broken Arrow venue – a hacienda-style space located on the edge of a picturesque manmade lake – Los Cabos is fast
becoming one of the most popular eateries in the region. With sophisticated starters like fried avocado or sweet corn tamales and entrées like seafood enchilada with crab, shrimp and scallops complemented by an award-winning margaritas and live music, Los Cabos is perfect for diners looking for a fun evening of spicy, south-of-the-border fare. Bar, American,
Pub Grub, $$$ Though it has a bit of a sports bar vibe with its live American football screenings, Main Street Tavern is a cut above your average neighbourhood pub. Located in a smart redbrick building in downtown Broken Arrow’s historic Rose District, the gastro pub opened in 2011 and its stylish, contemporary interior is home to a lively
ambience and a menu brimming with hearty, classic American dishes. Start with saucy boneless buffalo strips available mild, medium, hot or extra hot with celery and blue cheese salad followed by a comforting entrée of puff pastry chicken pot pie accompanied by one of Main Street Tavern’s 28 draught beers. Bakery, Dessert, $$$ Originally established by Larry and Bobbie Merritt back in 1999 as The Café Box, Merritt’s Bakery today is a group of four eateries spread across the Tulsa Metropolitan Area and serves some of the best-loved baked goods in the region. The newly renovated Broken Arrow branch opened in 2001 and is the company’s largest venue – a delicatessen and café open
for breakfast and lunch selling a range of sweet and savoury pastries, baked treats and sandwiches that also has a catering and custom cake making arm. Go in the morning and treat yourself to an apricot Danish or banana nut muffin or lunch with a filling Cuban meat pie followed by a mini key lime tart. ‘Eat the meat’ is the mantra of Smokies Hickory House BBQ and with its tasty tried-and-tested family recipes and traditional hickory smoked meat, lovers of barbecue won’t be disappointed with a trip to one of Broken Arrow’s best-loved restaurants. Owned by the Latsos family, Smokies opened in 2012 in a
little log cabin made from reclaimed 1930s barn wood with a laid-back, casual vibe, while all its meat cooked in an old-fashioned smoker built by family patriarch Freeman Latsos in 1979. Though its menu is concise, it features all the necessary ingredients for a great barbecue feast – starters and sides include onion rings and fried pickles with options like brisket, ribs and hot link sausages as the main event.

with options that include French toast panini with mascarpone and fresh fruit or chicken salad croissant.
