    We found out about the Rose Tree Museum from the owner of the nearby Cowboy Coffee place. He has a…read morefamily connection to this place, but although maybe not objective, it was a good recommendation. If you bring your coffee cup from Cowboy Coffee you get a dollar off the normally six dollar admission price. However, even without a dollar discount, this stop is very worthwhile. There are Yelp complaints about a rude person who was collecting tickets, but we encountered a very hospitable woman, so maybe that guy is gone. There are three period rooms that are worth seeing, but I enjoyed the other displays even more. They have a lot of family artifacts from the gold rush error, including my favorite, an assay scale used to measure gold dust. It claims that it can measure the weight of a pencil mark on a piece of paper! Another interesting item is a check made out to the very not politically correct "last Chinaman in Deadwood." There are period guns, dresses, elaborate locks, and many other items that really are museum worthy. The namesake to the museum is the rose tree in the courtyard. Or more accurately, the rose tree and the court yard are synonymous, because it covers the entire court yard. It is supported on a giant trellis, and it was planted in 1895. It's enormous and it was in bloom. Honestly, this place is more interesting than it looks on its website. I recommend a visit when you are in Tombstone.

    Such a historic and memorabilia museum and although the rose bush was not blooming or the parts I…read moreheard may be blooming but I didn't find it definitely going to have to comeback when it is in full bloom. A lot of history, pictures and information! Great information

In the small museum in the back, an orchestra frog band lined up with instruments while music and different lights flashes. It's weird to look at it but cool at the same time. Also there multiple uncanny artworks​​ displayed in the museum. The shop itself is unique and you can find unordinary souvenirs. The staff is​ very friendly and welcoming. When you are visiting Tombstone, it's a place to visit to buy eccentric art pieces.

    BEST STORE IN TOMBSTONE !!!!…read more Honestly, I have to say I had a great time in this store/museum. This is a profound collection of multi-culture oddities! The staff who I believe were the owners, were fantastic! They were personable and knowledgeable and took great care in wrapping my delicate items (I purchased a fully articulated bird skeleton in a delicate glass case as well as a taxidermied furry bat) as well as some odds and ends, crystals, Buffalo teeth and some AMAZING buttons ! Marshall Applewhites "Beam me up"! Baaaahahahaha! Everything made it back to San Diego with no problem ! They also gave me a few free incense sticks and a tombstone sticker. I can tell that the owners absolutely love their store and one even commented that it was his dream to have this place. The energy is palpable and gratitude is genuine. I also appreciated hearing the gal very lovingly dispel stereotypes to a curious customer regarding voodoo/witchcraft and energy and spell work. The passion is noticeable. I encourage anyone to visit this store while you are in tombstone and see the cool museum in the back that is really neat! Support these folks ! Blessed be.

Between the live music and the old historic vibe, I think it's one of the coolest experiences in town! The history behind the place is also really interesting. It's the second-oldest restaurant in Arizona and opened in 1880. The building used to be the Grand Hotel before it burned down in 1882 & was rebuilt, and there's a lot of history connected to it. The food isn't luxury dining, but I've never been disappointed with a burger or sandwich with some onion rings (really tasty btw). My girlfriend also loves the Macho Nachos. Overall it's just a fun spot with good prices, good service, and a Wild West-sized load of character

    I'd have to say that if for no reason other than atmosphere alone, Big Nose Kate's Saloon earns its…read morefive stars! Even on a Tuesday afternoon in mid-April, this joint was bustling with live music, servers rushing about in their period costumes, and the chatter of happy patrons enjoying themselves and taking it all in. Whether a lover of frontier history, western cinema, or just plain ol' drinking in a genuine saloon, Big Nose Kate's screams, "WELCOME TO THE TOWN TOO TOUGH TO DIE!" Upon entering, our party was seated in a raised section above the main floor near the front windows. It was an excellent spot to see all the action (including a monitor playing the movie Tombstone, BTW) as we perused the menu of appetizers, entrees, and libations. The selection of specialty drinks was impressive, though I opted for a simple "Big Ass" draft pilsner (flavorful and locally brewed). My wife did order a Cowboy Sangria - and it appears wimpy drinks "don't go around here, Law Dog," because she thought it was good but a bit too strong. I actually had to finish it for her. (Such a chivalrous sacrifice!) But don't assume that Kate's is just a drinking establishment; there's quite a variety of eats, as well. Good-sized, tasty looking burgers and sandwiches passed by our table, which were tempting; however, not being overly hungry, we decided to sample a few of their appetizers as we moved on to another round of beers. The Buffalo Wings were good but nothing really special. The Soft Pretzel Basket - actually one HUGE pretzel served with cheese and mustard sauces - was warm, salty, and much bigger than anyone anticipated. It was enjoyed by our entire table. When visiting, don't neglect a trip to the gift shop, which can be accessed from a spiral staircase right in the center of the dining area. Their menu recounts that a part of this underground area was once the abode of the saloon's swamper, and you can even view his living cubby and mining tunnel when below. Of course, there's lots of branded swag available for sale down there, too! Big Nose Kate's Saloon is a must-see stop for Tombstone visitors. Priced aren't exorbitant, portions are generous, and the food and drinks are pretty darned good, as was evident from the satisfied looks of the diners and drinkers around us . You may even be approached by Steve, who offers FREE photos (from your personal camera or phone) with props and piano-top poses - now how can you beat that value? Make it a point to come on in, belly up to the bar, and enjoy the saloon's hospitality.
