The Last Kind Words Saloon
WINNER

One of the crown jewels of the $250 million revitalization efforts of the historic Oasis at Death Valley, The Last Kind Words Saloon brings the West of old to the largest national park in the continental U.S. Featuring relics of the past such as movie posters, “Wanted!” fliers, antique firearms and taxidermy, the saloon is a testimony to the days of a bygone era. Its menu serves everything from barbecued ribs, to wild Alaskan salmon and pasta, all of which can be enjoyed alongside local draught beers and a selection of wines and whiskeys.
