Experience a taste of history in the food, stories, setting and artifacts.
Here the food is part of your museum experience. We Start with American Indian, which features Buffalo and Elk, next on our menu comes Old World, which includes French, Italian, English, Scotch-Irish, German and Swedish selections. Then we include some Early American such as Ham & Beans, Salmon Patties, and Brisket. 20th Century foods are next where we include the American Farm meals and Town Square Sandwiches (Towns in the Midwest were built around the Court House Square). The final section offers some Vegetarian choices. A colony of Vegetarians came to Kansas in 1856 to settle. You will be eating in a Victorian decor Parlor, with a fireplace.
We feature a small library for your reading enjoyment and you are free to tour the home while your food is being prepared. We have seven buildings on this historic complex. If you love good old fashioned, made-from-scratch cooking and History that comes to life, you will love us.
Our mission is to make learning History interesting and tasty to travelers on the Santa Fe Trail (now Main Street and Highway 56) going right by our front door.
"This place is a treasure"! That is how some people describe The Trail Days Café and Museum. Be impressed by the authentic Historic Victorian setting and artifacts that surround you, and the delicious home made flavors of the past.
