Country music and country vittles go hand in hand, or at least they should. So many of our steakhouses, catfish houses and country fried joints all across Arkansas and the Mid South pipe in the tunes of the greats of country music. But few of them offer live performances, and even fewer offer that live entertainment for free.
Of them, Loree's Cattleman's Restaurant in Green Forest is a real gem. The Cattleman's Restaurant has stood since 1958, as part of, I kid you not, a sale barn. It is truly a local gem, with clientele that usually seems restricted to people who all know each other. Everyone really does seem to know everyone by name.
