FOR ALL RESERVATIONS..... make a phone call to 940-366-4255.  I'm Denis, I take the calls, I make the reservations, and it is my desire to talk to a friendly voice at the other end of the phone line.... so I can "tell you all about the Ancient Ovens experience.  It's more fun that way!  I won't make a reservation via the computer. 


Whether we have 2 guests or 50 guests, our dining events are served family style.  One meal (event) per evening.  Your seating is yours for the evening.  Please check our calender for all event dates and showtimes.  Ancient Ovens is currently an outside venue, therefore, the weather can negatively impact the evening.  Soon to come....

Children at Ancient Ovens:  Two seasons of serving at Ancient Ovens has taught us that we are predominantly an "adult venue".  Folks young and old, married and dating, have continuously relayed to us that Ancient Ovens is the perfect eclectic and romantic "date night event".  We do welcome children.  Since we are a working farm and in order to maintain the decorum for those couples seeking that "date night" experience, we ask that children remain at their tables with an adult guardian as well as be escorted to and from the restroom facilities.  Cost for children ages 3 through 12 is 15.00 dollars.
