Bull Malarkey's 109 North Main Street, Henrietta, TX 76365

"A hidden gem. Stopped in Henrietta, TX on our way to Colorado and a google search showed Bull Malarkey’s as the highest rated place to dine. We were skeptical along the route from the hotel but found a lovely, packed, downtown restaurant with the most relaxing atmosphere! Service and food were excellent and the owner just lovely. This place is so worthy of adding to your bucket list of places to visit."

"We decided to stop here for lunch on our way to camping at Lake Arrowhead State Park. We called ahead to let them know we'd be arriving with a group of 4 adults and 9 kids about 30 minutes before their 2pm closing time. The two ladies who served us were very accommodating and didn't hurry us out. The food was excellent. We had burgers and the chicken fried steak. Ample portions, well-cooked, fries were good. They also have a really cool bar area in the back that looks like it would be hopping on a Friday or Saturday night and would be a nice place to host an event."

"This place is a must STOP! We had the Bull Burner Burger, a juicy piece of hamburger meat with fresh grilled jalapeños ,onions and topped with ghost pepper cheese. Dessert the Bread Pudding with Ice cream. The top had the perfect amount of crunch and the inside was moist and delicious!!!"

"Nice little restaurant. Very clean. Well decorated, friendly atmosphere. Food was very good. Recommend the Chicken Fried Steak."

"Bull Malarkey's is a quaint, country restaurant, off the main town square in Henrietta, TX, across from the Henrietta main courthouse. It is a simple place on the outside, nothing screams restaurant except for the small sign on the outside of the shared building. Ther restaurant's name is on the glass of the main entrance door. I noticed a generously sized handicapped ramp on the sidewalk up to the main entrance. When you walk inside Bull Malarkey's you are instantly transported back in time to the early 1900's. The dining room had a rustic charm, a character of an old, country dining room. It has wooden floors, wild game heads sporting every side of the room, homey aromas, some antiques displayed on wooden bookcases. It looks like a true , old fashioned, small town restaurant. The dining room was clean and charming; a comfy relaxed feeling. There were no big city sounds of hustle and bustle. Even though the main dining room merely seats 16, it is spacious and uncrowded, with plenty of room to walk around each table. I believe there was a second dining area, but I didn't actually see it. Our server worked alone serving all six tabletops. She was the hostess, server, busser, and cashier. Occasionally, another, well dressed woman poppped out from the kitchen area (?) to help to deliver the food to tables. As she passed each table she checked for refills, but as quickly as she appeared she soon vanished back to the other room. She vanishing woman appeared a second time, for an encore performance, before leaving again. She was friendly, when she spoke, and checked on our food and refills. Our server was a extremely friendly, speedy, efficient, and kept moving the entire time we dinned. She never missed a refill. She dashed by and quickly checked on our table several times during our meal. This small restaurant stayed full, as well as, several guests stopped in to order takeout. We didn't see anyone have to wait longer than a couple of minutes to be seated. The eleven o'clock lunch hour was quite busy for such a small town, population, 3141 (in 2010). The food was beautifully plated, had generous portions, was cooked fresh, and made exactly as ordered. I had a BBQ burger, topped with sauteed onions, and a side of hand cut, seasoned, fries, and a large glass of iced sweet tea. My BBQ Bacon buger was juicy. The BBQ sauce was smokey, sweet, and slightly tangy. The seasoned fries were so good. They were tender, crunchy, and sliced thin. My dining buddy had the grilled *chicken, sweet coleslaw, and two wedges of buttery Texas toast... which he thoroughly enjoyed. All our food was prepared as ordered. *Note: The grilled chicken was a bit dry and chewy, slightly tough to cut with the simple table knife; it may have been slightly overcooked... However, it did have some scrumptious seasoning. Sadly, we were too full to try any of the enticing desserts. Maybe on our next visit we might order the banana pudding or Bull's bread pudding, first! We had a delightful lunch at Bull Malarkey's, in Henrietta, TX... cute name for a restaurant!"
