Cleo’s 1885

🎉WE HAVE A WINNER!🎉

Congratulations to Becky Akers, winner of Dinner for Two at the Cleo's Soft Opening!🍽️🤎

Becky told us she would bring her granddaughter to celebrate her birthday, and we couldn't think of a sweeter reason to pull up a chair at Cleo's. Happy Birthday Kamryn Manry! We can't wait to celebrate you both!

And to everyone who entered and commented, THANK YOU.

We truly loved reading your comments. Some made us laugh, some touched our hearts, and every single one reminded us just how special this community is.
The support and excitement you've shown Cleo's before we've even opened our doors has meant more to us than you know.

We're building Cleo's to be a place for good food, celebrations, date nights, family dinners, old friends, new friends and plenty of stories around the table.
And pretty soon, we get to welcome ALL OF YOU.

You're not just watching Cleo's come to life...
You are becoming part of the Cleo's story from the very beginning. 🤎

Thank you, Hobbs. Thank you Lea County. We'll see ya'll soon.

YA'LL COME EAT.

Another little piece of Cleo's 1885 has found it's home.
..she ain't subtle

A little vintage.
A little wild.
A little inappropriate in all the right ways. 😉

Old Wild West meets today.

And if this sign tells you anything about what's coming...just wait until you meet the rest of her.

Today!

.🤠Well...We got a little ahead of ourselves.

Turns out Cleo's 1885 isn't quite ready for interviews unless y'all plan on showing up in hard hats.

Plus, our crew is also coming off one hell of a week catering at the Lea County Fair and Rodeo, so we're giving everyone a minute to dust off their boots, catch their breath and get Cleo's ready to meet her future crew.

NEW HIRING EVENT DATE

📅 Wednesday, August 19
⏰ 4pm to 8 pm
