On one of our motorcycle day trips, we happened upon Fisher Street Bar & Grill in Goldthwaite, and it was a fantastic dining experience. Nestled in the heart of the historic downtown, this charming restaurant offers an inviting atmosphere that makes you feel at home.
One of the highlights of my visit was sitting at their 22-foot mesquite bar, where I enjoyed a pint of cold beer. It’s the ideal spot to unwind with friends or watch the game. If you prefer a more relaxed vibe, the enclosed patio is a wonderful choice for sipping on a cocktail or a glass of wine.
The menu is a journey through American comfort food, featuring mouthwatering dishes like the hickory-smoked ribeye and barbecue. The pizzas are perfect for sharing, while their homemade pasta and salads provide options for light yet satisfying meals.
Don’t miss out on their thin-sliced dill pickle spears. Served in a spicy batter with a house-made creamy jalapeño dipping sauce, they were hands down the best I’ve ever tasted. And speaking of must-orders, their hamburgers are a real treat — a half-pound hickory-smoked house-ground brisket burger, grilled to perfection and topped with lettuce, tomato, pickle, and onion.
Fisher Street Bar & Grill also accommodates large parties and is welcoming to bikers, which adds to the friendly, laid-back atmosphere. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, this spot is a gem that you won’t want to miss.
