SHOPPING & RESTAURANTS

Quality Restaurants	Fort Griffin General Merchandise (aka the Beehive)- Drawing on Albany¿s old west heritage, the Fort Griffin General Merchandise, lovingly known around town as The Beehive, serves up delicious grilled steaks cooked over mesquite coals, shrimp, chicken and more in a rustic, casual atmosphere. Thursdays are all you can eat shrimp nights starting at 6:00pm and you'd better get there early. Yum! Friday & Saturday: Prime Rib & Chef's Special. Memberships to the Beehive Saloon are available. There is a private dining room available for booking your meetings or private parties and catering is available for all your special events. Icehouse Restaurant - Located in a historic building just off the Courthouse square, Icehouse is noted for its Tex-Mex specialties, mesquite grilled steaks and catfish fillets with hushpuppies. The Tres Mesa Private Club is a favorite gathering place for the locals (real cowboys here) and memberships are available. Los Cazadores Mexican Grill - At Los Cazadores Mexican Grill you will find a full menu of all of your favorite authentic Mexican dishes. From beef, chicken, or shrimp fajitas to nachos and quesadillas, you're sure to leave the restaurant satisfied and happy. Daily blackboard Mexican specials are served all day. You can dine-in or phone in a take-out order. Some of our favorite places to eat are not technically restaurants. For example, the Minit Mart/Alon service station and the Prairie Star/Chevron station have grills that serve up a variety of fresh-made fare and the Prairie Star is possibly the best caterer in town. So here's where else to look for great grub: Albany Minit Mart - The grill here serves up some of the best burgers, hand cut fries and onion rings in town, cooked when you order. Also available are plate lunches and traditional convenience store fare. Lunch specials are offered Monday through Friday and there's a hamburger special each Tuesday evening. Breakfast options include eggs to order, bacon, sausage and pancakes. The Pizza Pro (inside Minit Mart) offers pizza and sub sandwiches. Prairie Star- Prairie Star offers quite a variety of convenience store standards like chicken strips, burritos, chimichangas, stuffed jalapenos and more. But the best offerings come from the grill/deli and the salad cases. Check the blackboard for a listing of fresh made salads and delectable desserts available every day along with hot or cold sandwiches, pizza, barbeque and more. They also serve a lunch special every day, including Sunday. Seating is available upstairs or down if you want to ¿eat in¿. The well stocked convenience store carries a wide variety of drinks, both bottled and from the fountain. Vintage Vanilla- Take a step back in time. Vintage Vanilla shares its building with Sanders Drugs and Earline¿s Specialty Shop. They have an old fashioned 1905 soda fountain and candy by the pound in big glass jars, just like in the old days. Coffee, ice cream and soda fountain items are served all day, so it's a great place to get into the shade and cool off.
