Have you heard of the Rock Cafe in Stroud? This iconic eatery has been around since 1939 and has become a popular destination for Route 66 travelers. Despite facing a fire in 2008, the restaurant has maintained its historic charm with its original rock walls, foundation, and grill from WWII. The menu features unique items like the alligator burger, Reuben sandwich, and German jager schnitzel that keep customers returning for more. It's no wonder that the Rock Cafe has served many famous faces, including Robert Plant, Matt Groening, and Bryant Gumbel. The cafe was owned by Dawn Welch in 1993 and inspired a character in the animated film "Cars." If you're looking for some rural Oklahoma hospitality and a taste of history, the Rock Cafe is worth a visit.
Did you know that the Tulsa Historical Society & Museum is home to eight exhibit galleries that showcase artifacts and archives from Tulsa's rich history? Established in 1963, the museum has an extensive collection of over 400,000 still photographs, books, maps, documents, textiles, architectural elements, building furnishings, and personal artifacts. Interestingly, from 1985 to 1998, the museum was located in the Thomas Gilcrease house on the Gilcrease Museum grounds. Later, in December of 1997, THSM purchased the historic Sam Travis Mansion, which was renovated and expanded to serve as the museum's new headquarters.
