In case you’ve never been to Morton, Texas, its about a one-hour drive west of Lubbock, and is home to about 1,700 lovely people.

Other Options In Morton

Woof. When I googled this, I only found four total of restaurants in Morton (I’m hoping that’s a Google problem, not a Morton problem). Sonic, Chillax Cafe, J & A Burgers, and Gracias Cafe. I’m sure they are all great, but that’s not very many options.

Here’s hoping RH Grill can make a return and that any medical issues clear up for the proprietors. In the meantime, Morton, yall are always welcome here in Lubbock.
