The Most Beloved Remote Burger Joint In Arkansas Has Re-Opened And We Couldn't Be Happier

Many regulars agree that things were never quite the same after Tom Camardese passed away last summer. He ran the establishment for nearly two decades and perfected the Barn's deliciously diverse menu. His Arkansas family that adopted him shortly after he moved to the Ozarks have recently taken over the Barn.

New owner, Tracy Carey, and her friends are excited to revitalize the family tradition. The full menu with some new specialties (like a mouthwatering Ginger-Garlic Chicken Burrito with grilled veggies) is being brought back.

The Barn has always been known for its "3 napkin burgers" but Tracy assured us the big burgers will be even better and worthy of five napkins.

She spoke candidly about her vision for the Barn, "It's not about the money, it's about the tradition. It’s about the community and hikers being taken care of. This is my homeland." Although the shack hasn't even been open two weeks yet, the impact has already been felt. Locals can be assured the affordable family combos will always be on the menu; and, because of the government shut down, Tracy has been permitting hikers to camp behind the shack. If you're sticking around the area for a while you can even take Tracy's horseback riding lessons just across the way.

The little barn is located at 14433, 14499 AR-21, Ozone, AR 72854. They're now open 7 days a week from 11 am - 7 pm. Cards will eventually be accepted but for now plan on bringing cash. For more information you can call 479-292-1392.
