| This Chuck Wagon was built in 1961 to resemble a Conestoga Wagon. It has housed numerous businesses over the years including The Grill Next Door, O'Brien's Wings & Things, and Silver's Burgers-N-Wings. The building housed Big Mama's Burritos in 2012. By 2019, it was housing El Jefe. By 2020, the covered wagon feature had been painted black. [map] |

The Taco Loco Wagon was supposedly built around 1945-1955. I believe it was originally part of the "Chuc Wagun" chain (see links at the bottom of this page). The building's size and design are also so similar to the Chuck Wagon in Denver described above that they were probably related.
This location was previously known as the Taco Wagon and the Fajitas Wagon. In 2011, the building was undergoing renovation. It reopened later that year. A canopy was added which bisects the building beneath the covered wagon top feature. The place looked closed by 2016 and remains vacant. For more, see this website. [map] |

| The Chuckwagon Restaurant building was operating by 1986. It has been used for storage by the adjacent Frontier Bar & Grill for many years. Does anyone know more about the Chuckwagon? [map] |

 |
| The Arnold's Chuck Wagon Inn was built by the 1950s. It had a simple "Cafe" sign on the roof originally. The covered wagon sign replaced it sometime in the 1950s. The covered wagon continues to be used as an entrance. The name was changed later to the Chuckwagon Cafe & Bar. In 2022, the building began housing Fitch Ranch Meats & Market. The covered wagon was enlarged and a bull statue was installed then. For more, see these websites: 1 and 2. [map] |
