Lunch at Three Rivers Eatery & Brewhouse in Farmington, New Mexico

Eric and I worked up an appetite walking around Downtown Farmington.  Eric pulled out his phone and looked for a place to eat lunch.  www.yelp.com users give Three Rivers Eatery & Brewhouse high ratings.  Eric wants to sample their Colorado beers and try something new for lunch.  Their hamburgers get rave reviews.  I'm hungrier after looking at Yelp.com.  Let's go eat!





The white arrow on the
sidewalk points the way
to Three Rivers Eatery
& Brewery.













That's the biggest
can opener I've
ever seen!















The spacious bar welcomes
visitors.





I enjoy looking at
the owner's collection
of memorabilia.














The Kids Corner has
toys for young children
to amuse themselves
while their adults dine.




Today's Specials

















The largest private beer
label & coaster collection
in New Mexico




Eric & I are seated at a
spacious booth that has
been collected with 1940s
magazine articles &
advertisements.





During our visit, Eric and I chatted with owners John and Bob.  John told me many of the items that decorate the walls were found when he and Bob were renovating this 1912 building.  Because of my interest in the decor of the Eatery, he recommends we stop at the Tap and Game Room.






Eric got a "build your own"
beef flight & Coq au Vin
with Bread for lunch.






A fellow diner recommended the Green Chile Turkey Stew, do Eric ordered a cup.

 


I ordered the Southwest Burger
with Green Chile, Avocado,
Lettuce, Tomato & Onion
with French Fries on a
Ciabatta Bun.






Our lunch was amazing!  Chef Jeff is a wizard in the kitchen.

John loves talking about things to do in Farmington.  He found out that I am a retired librarian and gave us directions to the Farmington Public Library.  John gave Eric directions to access off road trails on the outskirts of the city. There's also a trail that follows the river.  Visotos park at the Courtyard Marriott  to access the river walk.




Eric asked for the Green
Chile Turkey Stew recipe
& a copy was printed 
out for him.











He will be using a calculator to adjust the ingredient amounts for a smaller yield.  The recipe makes five gallons of stew.
