The Farm Shopping Center
What I like about The Farm is that a lot of its shops and restaurants are local, not chains you can find anywhere. Stores like IO Metro, Black Sheep Boutique, and Backwoods, and restaurants like Mamasota’s and Villa Ravenna.
White Lion Pub
A real English pub in an old Tudor-style house off 71st and Yale. They shipped furniture over from old pubs in England. Order a meat pie and save room for the bread pudding.
Texas de Brazil
A Brazilian steakhouse where they keep bringing meat to your table until you tell them to stop. It’s a chain, but it’s a fun night out, and Tulsa has one.
The Blue Whale
Next to the Golden Driller, few landmarks around Tulsa are as famous as the Blue Whale of Catoosa. Built in the 1970s, it’s one of Route 66’s best-known stops, and it got a new visitor center in 2026.
