There's a small beer and wine section, a small produce section, and of course they have plenty of pre packaged food and drinks in the back. They had pet food and gardening stuff in the front too. It's nice to have a little place like this in Study Butte for the community; I'd bet if you go a little farther eg into Terlingua there are other spots but this grocery store is like less than 10 mins from the entrance to big bend so it's very convenient if you need to pick something up on the way in or out of the park!

Gordo's is local, fast, and very good…read more While we were in Terlingua this food truck was our go to... we made three trips to this place ordering different things and it never let me down. We travelled there in mid-July and the options in Terlingua were somewhat limited, but this is one you don't want to skip. The first evening, we stopped by coming out of west Big Bend NP, and I just needed something easy and not messy. So, I got an horchata and an al pastor burrito. Liz had the al pastor tacos, and the burrito was a self contained version of that deliciousness. The agua de melon was very sweet and energizing after a long day of hiking in the park. The horchata was creamy and thick, but just as cold and refreshing as its fruity cousin. We went horseback riding with the Terlingua Stables and before checking out Big Bend Ranch State Park. This time around, Liz grabbed a burger, which she was happy with. I tried another burrito - the chicken fajita bacon ranch. The fries that came with Liz's burgers were good... i stole some. I went back for seconds and ordered a small order (6) of wings with a not so spicy version of the mango habanero. I was able to enjoy them, and I tried their third agua fresca - hibiscus/jamaica. In the end, i was impressed with Gordo's they were always there for us, during the Terlingua "slow" season. The service was very friend, and the food served was very good. Don't miss out on Gordo's.

Be patient and enjoy the views!

Whether they ran a 10, 20, 35, 55 or 100k, the hundreds of runners finished with the same goal, to find food and replenishment (and for many a rewarding dinner). My husband and I found ourselves here after walking a few miles and passing three other spots packed with company. Alongside a lone ice cream truck (more on that coming soon), Dead Hungry was oddly quiet. I'm so glad we gave them a try because truly struck gold with this find. After a brief scan of the menu, I found myself craving something light, so (after consulting Yelp) I went for the butternut squash soup. Butternut squash is one of those dishes I'd "sacrifice" to try anything, and I mean anything else on the menu, but perfectly seasoned with fragrant, light spice, and topped with toasted pumpkin seeds, this was the perfect pairing to a cold desert evening. I would never have imagined I'd find delightful borscht, classic Peruvian dishes, pork butt and incredible butternut squash soup in Ghost Town west Texas, but here we are! At first I was tempted to keep this gem to myself, that is until I realized that these folks deserve all of the praise! If you're traveling to Big Bend, joining a group for a desert run, mountain biking or otherwise find yourself anywhere near this part of West Texas you have to give them a try, just remember to check their daily menu first!
