A unique small town place to get some great food. The building is 140+ years old, lots of history to be seen here. Cattle brands from local ranches are branded throughout the interior. Some describe the South 40 as a destination. Stop in and try something new. We serve Elk, Bison and Beef along with Cocktails created just for Elbert we know you’ll enjoy.

The food was so good, this was the only picture we got! I liked the rabbit-rattlesnake sausage and coleslaw, and that brisket was AMAZING. The family recipe chocolate chip cookie-pecan pie was the perfect balance of salty and sweet with a crumbly crust. Everyone was friendly, the waitress took great care of us, and the place had a fun, laid-back atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!

Wonderful and charming place in small town. I had Rocky Mountain Oysters (underwhelming, tastes like any breaded and fried meat), both elk and rabbit/rattlesnake sausages(very spicy and flavorful), and BBQ brisket (very tender and fresh). What a wonderful time.

Delicious. High quality meats for a decent price. We even asked if they owned the cattle used for the food because it is so fresh. I got the prime rib and him the pastrami. Both were very good. Decoration and vibe were nice and cozy. Waitress was great. Waitress said there is live music on Saturday so we are probably going to drive back and see what that is about. The set up is nice and we know the food is good.

South 40 is great! From the outside it looks like an old bar but its actually a building kept that way to keep its historic charm. My wife was a bit hesitant going in but we found the place to be extremely comfortable and welcoming. The food though was better than I could have hopped for…the Burgers and sausages were amazing. Its not close to my house but I would drive for that food and atmosphere again! One of the best experiences I have had in a long time!

Food, atmosphere and hospitality were all amazing. Don the barkeep was great and friendly. Tried Rocky Mountain oysters for the first time and was crazy good. Also had the brisket and rabbit/rattlesnake sausage which was all great. The BBQ sauce reminds me of Franklins in Austin Texas which if you know you know. All around great and highly recommended.

Great food, fast service and amazing wait staff as well. Our waitress was awesome, got the order in perfectly and didn’t forget anything (including the sauces, which most places always forget). Take a scenic drive to visit this place…it doesn’t disappoint!
