Cheyenne, the capital city of Wyoming, is known as the country’s rodeo and railroad capital. It has managed to retain its Old West vibe and some of its tourist attractions are a celebration of that, such as Terry Bison Ranch, Cheyenne Street Railway Trolley, and Cheyenne Depot Station and Depot Museum. However, it is often dismissed by foodies as a travel destination because they associate it with restaurant chains, fast-food outlets, and uninspired steakhouses. While it’s true that the city does have its fair share of these establishments, it also has good dining options. Cheyenne was once dubbed the Paris of the West. Combining its history and culture with its growing urbanization has brought forth restaurants that offer tasty food at reasonable prices. Check out this list of restaurants in Cheyenne, Wyoming, the USA, that you need to visit while you’re in the city.
