Cow Town Corral: Family Dining With a Twist

Cow Town Corral

Family Dining With a Twist

HEAD ‘EM UP! MOVE ‘EM OUT!  To the hottest new family dining restaurant in the territory.  Located at 301 North Broadway in the heart of downtown Abilene, Kansas, the Cow Town Corral combines atmosphere and a wide range of lunch, dinner and dessert selections in a beautifully remodeled, historic building.

With several years of experience that includes ship galleys, a hunting lodge, celebrity guest ranch, small cafes, renown restaurants, catering, personal chefs and food research and development for a large restaurant, This Ain't Their First Rodeo. Rex and Nancy Fancher, owners of the new Cow Town Corral, know what it takes to make great food and a great dining experience.  After owning their own restaurant for several years they decided to sell and travel.  They continued to work in new food venues and their passion for serving their fantastic creations continued to grow.  “I’ve known Rex and Nancy for several years,“ says business consultant, Jodie Stickney, “ and I knew they would be a great fit for Abilene.  Not only because of their incredible food but also because of their many years’ experience with tourism.”  It only got better when they partnered with Mark Kinderknecht, owner of the building and contractor. “Mark has an incredible intuition and skill for seeing the potential of these historic buildings and, together, they have created something really special,” says Jodie. 

The Cow Town Corral will serve a variety of unique and special dishes as well as “old favorites with a new twist”.  A full service lunch and dinner menu with appetizers compliments a kid’s menu and dessert menu.  There are selections for steak lovers, seafood lovers and vegetarians as well. The Cow Town Corral will be open from 11:00am to 9:00pm.  When working with a historic building, one never knows what might come up but Rex and Nancy plan to open the first part of July.
