We were all psyched about this place, especially the TX Ranger's Museum. We paid over $80 for 2 adults, 2 senior citizens, and 1 child to see both museums and were very disappointed. The old western town was a joke! Don't waste your time in that museum, but the Buckhorn museum side was interesting.
If your a hunter this is a good place to go, but if you arent dont waste your time or money. its over 30 dollars just for two people. you walk around several rooms COVERED in animals heads of all kinds. the food was ok but it took forever, we waited about an hour and a half for our food. the atmosphere of the place wasnt bad though.

Good lunch place, museum great but a little pricey
Good burgers and fry type of place and huge pieces of pie waiting for you. Two man country music act played in the dinning room and was a nice touch.
We thought for two people that ~$35 bucks was a little pricey for the Texas Ranger/Buckhorn Museum. The Museum is nicely done and the Buckhorn provides a vast amount of animals that were hunted by the owner.
We went with my mother and father-in-law along with my brother-in-law and his family (party of 11). We had a blast! There is sooo much to see. It never got boring for the hours (I think 4 to 5) that we were there.
It's been three years ago, and the kids still talk about it. So much to keep the kids interest focused, as well as ours. It ...

A Unique Find

Great place to experience the Old West and a taste of San Antonio's history you can't find any where else. The new Texas Ranger Museum was a real bonus. Don't miss this one.

What a great find!

Great place to spend an afternoon. Our family of 4, with two boys ages 8 and 10, loved everything about the Buck Horn. We didn't eat here, but took in all of the sights. Including the purchase of a couple of souveneirs in the gift shop. Would highly recommend!

Incredible Museum!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/11/05
If you visit San Antonio, you must visit the Buckhorn Museum. This is the most unique museum I have ever visited. More animals than you can imagine. The price is very reasonable for the experience you will get. I will be back in San Antonio in 2006 and this place will be on my list!
The museum was kinda neat. A little overpriced. Alot of interesting information about the ole West. DO NOT EAT HERE! The food, at best, was edible. Was overcharged by a rude little girl at the register. It took talking to two managers before getting setteled.

Another reason I love Texas!

The buckhorn museum is just what you would expect to see when visiting San Antonio. This city has obvious ties to its' past. The missions (including the Alamo), the oldest cathedral in the nation (The San Fernando Cathedral), hotels like the Emily Morgan and the Menger all contribute to preserving Texas' history. Again, The Buckhorn does ...
