A piece of history...not just food! Sep 19th, 2005
In this part of the country you don't
get too parsnickity about the cookin'.
Rumor has it that the scientists from
White Sands used to come here during
the a-bomb days. I don't know for sure. Quaint, down home, and definitely not "franchise". This is a local place with local cultural ambiance and a laid back feel. Set your expectations accordingly and you won't be disappointed.

AIN'T WHAT IT USED TO BE!!!!!!!!!! Jul 14th, 2005
Have eaten at the Owl Bar & Grill, while traveling through the area, over the last twenty-odd years. My first taste of the famous green chile cheeseburger was when I lived in Socorro, NM, in the late 70's. Back then, you needed to hold the burgers with both hands. You could also actually taste the green chile. The ambiance has remained unchanged, the restrooms are exactly the same size...you have to go back into the hallway to change your mind. The service has also continued to be fast and friendly. Serving the fries and drink first, is to keep you entertained during the long wait for your burger. Every time we've stopped by, it's been packed with patrons. It's a Bosque del Apaches Refuge bird watcher haven. Locals from Socorro only visit for bragging rights and to "remember the good ole days", maybe thats why we still stop by. The Owl is Bar is closed on Sunday. Worth stopping in just to say you've been there, and buy a tee-shirt as proof. There is also an Owl Bar & Grill in Albuquerque.

Living on old reputation Jun 26th, 2005
I swear it has declined over time. Not that it's bad, but for a buck more Mannie's Buckhorn (a stone's throw to the southwest) gets you a memorable green chile cheeseburger, much larger and higher quality ingredients.

Very enjoyable place to eat Dec 30th, 2003
We stop at the Owl Bar everytime we go to Socorro, New Mexico. The atmosphere is unique and the food is always very tasty. Service is fast and friendly.

Resting on its laurels Nov 17th, 2003
The Owl used to be good. That's why it's famous. The guy who made it famous is no longer there. Sad to say, I had both the worst burger and the worst banquet food of my life at the Owl within the past year. Written 11/03.
