North Dakota’s oldest restaurant is truly timeless. It’s been around for decades and has made a name for itself not only as being so old, but as having the best steaks you’ll ever try. You won’t find another place in the state that’s been around as long as this one has, or with meat quite as good. Take a look for yourself and then head out to try it:
North Dakota's oldest restaurant is located in the heart of its capital city, Bismarck.
The restaurant is in the historic Patterson building, once a hotel that has been converted to apartments. The restaurant is called Peacock Alley and was established right after the end of prohibition in 1933.
Peacock Alley is loaded with tons of history. The walls are lined with old photographs and some of the fixtures have been around as long as the establishment has. Throughout all these years there has been quite a few notable people to visit. These celebrity visitors include everyone from Jack Dempsey to John F. Kennedy, with many more to list.
Each piece of the Hanger Steak will send your tastebuds for a spin. You'll quickly understand why this restaurant is nationally recognized and award winning after trying it. It's just that good!
Steaks aren't the only thing Peacock Alley is good for. They have amazing, unique cocktails and the very best Bloody Mary you'll ever have. They've had over 80 years to perfect all of these, and it shows.
Many other menu options include pasta, soups, breakfast skillets, sandwiches, and more. Each is made from the best ingredients and are made fresh to order.
Whether you put together the perfect Bloody Mary, try their fantastic steaks, or bite into a delicious burger made with only the best meat, Peacock Alley will impress you with its food and its ability to stand the test of time.
Peacock Alley is located at 422 E Main Ave., Bismarck, ND 58501. For a full menu, hours, and more information on the restaurant, click here.
