The Legend

A Cave Creek institution since 1998

This is where the West is still wild.

For more than twenty-five years, the Buffalo Chip has been the beating heart of Cave Creek — a genuine western saloon where the dust never quite settles. Real cowboys ride real bulls in the arena out back. The band plays till late. And the grill runs on mesquite the way it has since day one.

No costume, no theme-park act. Just cold beer, honest steaks, live music, and a room full of folks who came for the ride and stayed for the town. Whether you're a local who's been coming for decades or a first-timer chasing the legend — pull up a stool. You're one of us now.

The Food

Steaks & saloon fare

Mesquite-grilled the way Cave Creek likes it — big cuts, honest portions, and the kind of plate that earns a place this loud.

The Bull Rider Ribeye

$38

16oz of mesquite-grilled ribeye, cast-iron seared and finished with a whiskey-peppercorn butter. The one they drive in for.

The Chip Burger

$16

A half-pound of chuck & brisket, aged cheddar, house pickles and saloon sauce on a toasted brioche. Add bacon, always add bacon.

Smokehouse Ribs

$26

A full rack, low and slow over mesquite, mopped in our own bourbon BBQ. Falls off the bone — served with beans & slaw.

Full menu — apps, salads, sides & dessert — poured fresh at the bar. Kitchen open late on ride nights. ✦
