RANCH HOUSE BBQ GRAND RE-OPENING!

Ranch House BBQ & Steakhouse will re-open their doors at their original Olympia location on Monday, February 9th at 11am!

As many of you know, Ranch House BBQ was completely destroyed in an early morning mudslide on 12/03/07. Operating most of 2008 out of a temporary downtown Olympia location, allowed the business to survive while building and property re-construction was being completed.

At times it felt like the doors to the historic Ranch would never re-open. A roof fire in early December 2008, followed by another 2 week delay due to the heavy snowstorm that fell in late December and, most recently, minor flooding due to the heavy rains in early January. But, out of the mud, smoke, snow and rain, Ranch House BBQ will rise again!

The months of hardwork and dedication provided byJeff Bowers and Bowers Construction of Montesano, has finally paid off. Ranch House BBQ will gladly re-open their doors to their long missed customers and friends. "I just want to cook BBQ," said owner and chef Amy Anderson. "It's been a long, long road to get here and we just hope the worst is over."

While Anderson and co-founder Melanie Tapia promise the same award-winning bbq, you will notice some changes. "Just about everything is new," said Tapia. "We really wanted to keep it the same ole' Ranch but between the mudslide and fire, it was just all gone." Although the overall size of the building is the same, upgrades include the addition of air conditioning and central heat, a cocktail lounge and kitchen upgrades.

Ranch House BBQ is located at 10841 Kennedy Creek Rd Sw in Olympia off Highway 8. Ranch House BBQ will be open 7 days a week from 11am to 9pm. Reservations are accepted. To contact call (360) 866-8704 or www.ranchhousebbq.net.
