Enjoy breakfast, lunch and dinner at the historic Settles Grill, where Texas comfort food meets serious meat-lover favorites, day and night. Here, diners can tuck into hearty, regionally inspired fare like Green Chile Queso, Chicken Fried Steak, and Steak Frites with chimichurri, offering the perfect way to refuel after a day of Lone Star State adventures.

Head into Hotel Settles' onsite watering hole, Pharmacy Bar & Parlor. Taking its name from the hotel's original pharmacy, this sophisticated space pays homage to what was once the community's "water cooler," where locals would go to chat about the topics of the day, whether weather or politics. Today, Pharmacy Bar & Parlor offers a similarly welcoming atmosphere, as well as craft cocktails, beer, and wine.

Savor some quintessential West Texas cuisine. Neighboring both New Mexico and Mexico, this part of the Lone Star State is known for its Tex-Mex cuisine, with dishes like enchilada beans and green chile pork and pinto bean stew being mainstays. Of course, no visit to Texas is complete without tucking into some barbecue. West Texas barbecue is often prepared "cowboy style," meaning that it is traditionally cooked directly over mesquite, giving it a distinctly smoky flavor.
