Lathem Saloon

Great food.  Hamburgers are great.  Be sure to ask for fried onions for your hamburger and barbecue sauce.  On Saturday nights they feature steaks.  This is a place where REAL cowboys go for food and refreshments.  Ranch trucks loaded with saddles and cattle dogs will be parked out front.  The place is nothing fancy but it is representative of real life in the Flint Hills of Kansas.  Be sure to drive straight East of the Saloon on a gravel road to the Caney Breaks.  It is a plateau where the land slopes east toward the Caney river basin.  Also, go straight West a few miles to see one of the longest stone fences in Kansas along a black top road.
