We’ve also set up a few fun fall photo spots, and our kids play area is slowly coming together! Bring the family, grab some food and drinks, snap a few pictures and hang out with us for a fun fall Saturday.

🌧️ WE’VE BEEN WATCHING THE SKY ALL DAY... ☂️

The forecast keeps showing us rain, but so far Mother Nature hasn’t delivered! 🙌🏼

And since we definitely don’t want a little rain in the forecast spoiling our first "official day" at The Railyard, we’ll be OPEN for our regular hours tonight from 4:00–8:00 PM!

Come see us! Grab dinner and drinks from your favorite vendors, hang out for a while and take a look around. You might even notice a few of the little changes we’ve already been working on.

New chapter. Same great food. And we’re just getting started!

See you tonight from 4–8 PM!

Tomorrow is the BIG DAY! ❤️

October 1 officially begins a new chapter at The Railyard, and we’re so excited to finally be here.

The support, encouragement, kind words and excitement you’ve already shown us have meant more than you know. We have a long list of ideas, plenty of work ahead of us, and a whole lot of love for this little place on Route 66.

More than anything, we’re excited about what The Railyard can continue to be for our community. A place to grab some great local food, spend time with family and friends, listen to some music, make some memories and simply enjoy being together.

Thank you to Springfield Business Journal for sharing a little bit of our story, and thank YOU for cheering us on as we take this next step.

Tomorrow, it’s official. ❤️

Here’s to a new chapter at The Railyard on Historic Route 66. We can’t wait to share it with all of you!

Tim and Emily Lewis are stepping back from managing The Railyard — the outdoor food venue they have operated since February 2025.

Brad and Adria Martin, who run Oakview BBQ in one of the four food-vendor shipping containers at the Railyard, will be taking the reins as of Oct 1.

🛠️ A LITTLE WORK IN PROGRESS...

Today we rolled up our sleeves and got to work at The Railyard!

First up, those tarps came OFF the stage and work started on a brand new roof. We’re already making some pretty great progress!

We also had some awesome help cleaning up the picnic tables and giving the outdoor pub tables some much-needed love with new tops.

We have quite the list of things we want to tackle around here, and we know it’s going to take some time. But we thought it might be fun to take you all along for the ride as we clean things up, make some changes and make this little gem shine again! ✨

Some changes will be big. Some will be small. But we’re pretty excited about what’s ahead.

Here’s a little peek at Day One!

Start making your plans to stop by Thursday, Friday or Saturday to grab some food and drinks, hang out for a while and check out what we’ve been working on!

Stick around. We’ve got some work to do! 🛠️

P.S. A little something for our littlest Railyard visitors is in the works...
