Unlike the motel next door this bar has managed to keep a great environment and atmosphere. Nice workers nice people. Food is great and cheap and it's just a cool place to have a drink, get a bite to eat or play pool and listen to the jukebox. Never crowded or obnoxious people when I have went.

In from out of town, had lunch here and it was so good I came back for dinner. Staff is amazing, so welcoming. Can’t recommend it enough! Only gave it 5 stars because 10 wasn’t available

Joe is a great bartender and the nachos were great for bar food. Half price selected appetizers on Mondays or for atleast when I was there.

Woman owned, fun, and friendly. From 11am to 2am there is a party going on: from karaoke to concerts to games to food that is affordable and filling. The humorous owner and other friendly bar tenders remember your drink preferences, and what matters to you as a person. There’s plenty of regular attendees throughout the day. I’ve been going for a year and it has become my favorite bar

This place has been around since I was sixteen sneaking in to pick up cougars in the 80's. The new owner has really done some great things, the biggest being the service and attitude. Great, positive and friendly. And lemme tell you something, the food is damn good. I mean real damn good. I wouldn't lie. Their Sunday brunch is the best kept secret in Tulsa. Wanna watch a game? Go to the Elephant Run. Want to be around nice people? Want to meet the owner and see what a badass she is? I'll see you at the Elephant Run.
