Fans of the Paramount drama Yellowstone might see a familiar site in an upcoming episode.
Weatherford staple Mary's Brazos Cafe was recently used to film the Kevin Costner drama about a cattle ranching family, all thanks to series co-creator. Taylor Sheridan.
Sheridan grew up in North Texas, and visits Mary's Brazos Cafe frequently. He says, "I chose Mary's because that's where we have breakfast when I'm here. I spent a lot of time at horse shows and rodeo and whatnot, so I was kinda raised at Will Rogers and obviously the Stockyards; everyone's gone there. I didn't discover Mary's until a few years ago, at least Mary's down here on the Brazos and sure like her and her place."
Yellowstone recently filmed at the restaurant for an episode to air next summer. And one of the best parts, the restaurant got to keep its name in the show, though they changed the location from Tin Top to Padacuh, which is located in the panhandle.
Mary Anderson, who has owned the cafe for 29 years, said, "I couldn't believe they put Mary's Brazos Cafe on the shirts. I'm not in Padacuh, of course. Everybody's gonna be looking for me in Padacuh."
Details on the episode are scarce, but it's expected to air on the Paramout Network June, 2021!
