Howdy, friend — welcome to The Moose Knuckle Tavern, where good food, cold drinks, and friendly faces come together under one roof. Located right off Historic Route 66 inside the Elk City KOA Campground, our tavern isn’t just another stop on the map — it’s a homegrown spot where locals and travelers gather to share stories, laughter, and a taste of true Oklahoma hospitality.
What started as a small idea — a cozy tavern that serves great meals and even better company — has turned into a community favorite. From breakfast burritos at sunrise to cold beers under the stars, The Moose Knuckle Tavern has become Elk City’s go-to hangout for families, campers, and road trippers alike.
We’re proud to be family-owned and locally operated, built on small-town values and the belief that a good meal shared with good people can turn any day around.
It’s simple — The Moose Knuckle Tavern feels like home.
Our guests come back not just for the food, but for the feeling. We greet everyone with a smile, remember your favorite order, and always make room for one more at the table. Whether you’re a regular from down the road or a traveler cruisin’ through on Route 66, you’ll find comfort here — in our food, our people, and our down-to-earth atmosphere.
We’re not fancy, we’re family — and that’s the kind of dining Elk City loves most.
The story of The Moose Knuckle Tavern starts right here in western Oklahoma.
We wanted to create a space that captured everything great about our town — the friendly spirit, the open skies, the easy laughs, and the joy of gatherin’ together over a hot meal. So we built it, one table and one smile at a time.
Since our doors opened, we’ve become a part of the Elk City community. We’ve hosted travelers from all over the country, fed families after ballgames, and poured cold drinks for tired campers lookin’ for a place to relax.
And while the menu’s grown and the faces behind the bar may change from time to time, one thing never does — our love for this town and the people who make it feel like home.
There are plenty of places to eat in Oklahoma — but there’s only one Moose Knuckle Tavern.
We’re more than just a restaurant; we’re a place where travelers and locals meet, stories are shared, and memories are made. Here’s what sets us apart:
Our menu’s packed with hearty favorites — burgers, pizzas, pastas, and breakfast classics — all made fresh every day.
Whether it’s a Made in Oklahoma craft beer, a Route 66 cocktail, or a glass of wine, we pour every drink with pride.
Live music, happy hour specials, and weekend events make our tavern the liveliest spot in Elk City.
Everyone’s welcome here — families, couples, solo travelers, and even the occasional furry friend from the KOA.
Everything we do — from our menu to our music — celebrates the local flavor and laid-back charm of Elk City and Route 66.
We’re the kind of place where you come as you are, eat ‘til you’re full, and leave with a smile. That’s what makes The Moose Knuckle Tavern more than just a restaurant — it’s an experience.
Behind every plate we serve and every drink we pour is a team that truly cares.
Our crew isn’t just staff — they’re family. From the cooks who know your favorite breakfast order to the bartenders who remember your drink by heart, every member of our team takes pride in making your visit a great one.

Our passion for hospitality runs deep. We grew up right here in western Oklahoma, and we built The Moose Knuckle Tavern to reflect everything we love about this place — the people, the traditions, and the stories that connect us all.
Every time someone walks through our doors, we’re reminded why we started: to create a space where everyone belongs. Whether you’re here for breakfast, dinner, or just a cold beer with friends, you’re part of our story now.
