ROCK SPRINGS CAFÉ

Sunday August 24th @ 11:00 am
By Wednesday, August 20th
Established in 1918, Rock Springs is a historical landmark serving legendary pies and great atmosphere! The Village includes the Cafe, Pie Box, and Various Shops.
In the early days the drive between Prescott and Phoenix was a tortuous experience. Flat tires, steaming radiators and dust were not unexpected problems, just part of the normal trip. Ben Warner, then an aspiring 19-year-old entrepreneur, built a canvas-covered store to supply merchandise for travelers, miners and local ranchers. Many of Arizona’s famous pioneers knew “The Rock” well. As frequent travelers between Prescott and Phoenix, the Goldwater family became frequent visitors to the store and cafe.
