The Thicket Boots & Spurs Grill

Nestled on Tinkle Street in the heart of historic Winters, Texas, The Thicket Boots & Spurs Grill invites diners to a nostalgic journey where classic comfort food meets a retro arcade experience. Chef Doug Mac, a local culinary enthusiast, crafts homestyle favorites such as Texas‑style chicken fried steak, buttery biscuits with sausage gravy, chili‑cheese fries, and a signature Lone Star cheeseburger topped with pickles and smoked cheddar. Milkshake lovers can indulge in thick, creamy creations—vanilla bean, rich chocolate, and strawberry swirl—served in vintage glassware. The interior dazzles with neon signage, vinyl‑upholstered booths, a 1950s jukebox, and walls lined with classic arcade cabinets like Pac‑Man, Galaga, and pinball machines, perfect for families and gamers alike. Open Monday through Thursday from 10:30 am to 8:00 pm, Friday and Saturday from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm, and Sunday 10:30 am‑6:00 pm, the diner offers a moderate price range of $10‑$20 per entrée. Its location near the historic downtown square and just off Highway 287 makes it a convenient stop for road‑trippers and locals seeking a taste of Texas nostalgia. Whether you’re reserving a booth for a weekend brunch, ordering online for a cozy night in, or simply strolling in for a quick bite, The Thicket Boots & Spurs Grill delivers a warm, family‑friendly atmosphere that blends the charm of a bygone era with fresh, made‑from‑scratch meals.
