We’re Tommey and Bill Burke, longtime Crown King folks and proud stationmasters of the Crown King Depot. Built upon the very grounds of the original railroad depot, we’ve brought this historic stop back to life with hearty vittles, spirited libations, and a tip of the hat to the iron horse days that helped shape our mountain town.
All aboard for good times at the Depot! Join us Fridays 5–9 PM, Saturdays 11 AM–9 PM, and Sundays 11 AM–5 PM for great food, cold drinks, and plenty of mountain fun. Pull up a seat, watch the town roll by, and enjoy a little railroad hospitality. And when the festivities have reached the end of the line, don’t forget about our Crown King Lodging we have four Sleeper Cars out back—perfect for grabbing some shut-eye after a full day of Depot adventures!
We serve a full selection of beer, wine, cocktails, and daily drink specials. Our menu features flatbread pizzas, Depot Dogs, Soft Pretzels, Sonoran dogs, Panini sandwiches and new features every week. Have a favorite? Let us know, we’d love to hear your ideas.
We opened Memorial Day Weekend, and the old Depot has been running full steam ever since! Climb aboard and escape the Phoenix heat, breathe in the cool mountain air beneath the pines, and settle into a seat on our wraparound deck as the sights and sounds of small-town Crown King roll by.
