Every restaurant has its own unique story – from the tales of a small town eatery that’s been in the family for generations to the novice chef chasing a lifelong dream. Arnie’s Barn in Missouri is no different. In fact, the story of this popular restaurant, that dishes up a mix of Mexican and Texas BBQ dishes, might be one of the most unique around.

Arnold Palmer left an undeniable mark on the game of golf, including at Big Cedar Lodge in Branson, where he designed a practice range called The Cascades.

However, it’s the restaurant that bears his name, overlooking The Cascades, that’s truly unique. Arnie’s Barn is a more than 150-year-old barn from the golf great’s hometown of Latrobe, Pennsylvania.
