JP Brammer of ¡Hola Papi! Thinks This Burger Joint Sums Up Oklahoma - Eater
"The Meers Store and Restaurant is a general store and restaurant located in the Wichita Mountains in rural southwest Oklahoma. It's famous for its hearty longhorn beef burgers served in pie tins and peach cobblers. The place exudes a nostalgic vibe with its vintage rodeo posters, taxidermy, and historical decor, including a dormant seismograph and portraits of historical figures like Geronimo. It has a playful approach to its history, advertising its products with references to the gold rush era, like the 'prospector' burger and 'gold dust desserts.' Visitors can also find cowboy attire reminiscent of Mexican vaqueros for sale. The venue is marked by aluminum signs promoting the 'World Famous Meers Burger' and a sense of Oklahoma's golden age, despite its historical complexities and a sense of loss for the unfulfilled promises of the past." - JP Brammer
