Starlight Theater in Terlingua

Nothing quite displays the unexplainable art, culture and weirdness of Terlingua like the Starlight Theater. Stop by this local hangout for chicken-fried wild boar and while you’re there, say hello to the stuffed billy goat, Clay Henry, who was once a nearby town’s mayor.

Cueva De Oso

Cueva De Oso in Balmorhea

Nothing quite hits the spot after a day of tripping like some homemade West Texas Mexican food, which is exactly what you’ll find at Cueve de Oso in Balmorhea. The “Bear Den,” as the locals call it, makes a mean “tacos a la parilla,” and their homemade tortillas will put your madre’s to shame.
