No, we are not kidding. Buffalo Chip Saloon offers real, live bull riding-on real, live bulls! If you're hankering for a good time away from the sprawl, pardner, head up north to this watering hole situated along Cave Creek's main drag. Cowboys are king here, as evidenced by its country-western dance lessons, and toe-tappin'; performances by the twangy musicians of the Pat James Band throughout the week. An authentic-looking Wagon Camp is also located out back, providing an outdoor bar and dance floor amidst hay bales, fire pits, and old-timey buildings and décor.

Yep, that's a live bull. And, yep, that cowboy is about to ride him. Every Wednesday and Friday, that cowboy has eight seconds, but you have as long as you like to check out the house band, take a free dance lesson, or chomp on catfish and fries (but don't forget the $10 all-you-can-eat BBQ). More than 50 years ago, the Buffalo Chip was just was a feed-and-bait shop on the way to Horseshoe and Bartlett lakes. Today, the 6,000-square-foot saloon sits on five acres.
