The Famous Burro fronts Marathon's main street in a renovated garage and gas station. We kept the garage doors to provide a picturesque view of the town (and our usual spectacular sunsets). There's also a cozy stone patio out front for fair-weather dining, the game room where smoking is permitted, and our back patio, complete with dance floor and stage for entertainment.


As for the food: we're proud to smoke our own pulled pork and brisket using time-honored techniques. Our burgers are 100% fresh-ground chuck. We use local produce and dairy products whenever they're available. And our recipes come from our staff, representing cooking traditions from Texas, Georgia, California and New England. While you'll seldom encounter a chutney or balsamic reduction, what you will find at the Burro is clean, simple, honest food prepared and presented with love and pride.
The Famous Burro is proud to offer a varied menu chock-full of fresh, homemade American food. We change it pretty frequently, with the season and the availability of our favorite ingredients. If you don't find something you want on our menu, we'll make you something you'll like just the same.
