By K.D. MICHAELS, Staff Writer

A popular Branson area eatery has just opened another location Billy Gail’s Restaurant’s newest location – this one on Branson’s Gretna Road – opened on Tuesday, offering delicious made-toorder food for locals and visitors alike.

Tyler Murphy, general manager of the newest Billy Gail’s location, noted, “This is actually our third Billy Gail’s, and the second one in the Branson market. If you’ve ever been to the one off of 265, it’s very busy all the time. So much so that a lot of our local demographic really can’t go out there and experience what we have to offer. So, we thought why not put one in the heart of Branson, and cater to the local demographic population, and also go after some of that tourism that’s not making it out there to 265 or going to SDC.”

No one has ever left Billy Gail's hungry. No one.

Billy Gail’s is a family owned and operated restaurant. The restaurant’s parent company, A&J Hospitality, owns not only the hugely popular Billy Gail’s establishments but the much-talked-about Flat Creek Restaurant, as well. Murphy has been with the company for six years and has a lifetime of experience in the Branson hospitality industry, working with his family in various restaurants, hotels, motels and dinner theaters.

“I have been with A&J Hospitality since 2016,”Murphy explained. “I started as a server, and got promoted up the ranks, then helped them open this store, and a couple others, as well.”

Murphy shared one of the secrets to Billy Gail’s success. “We specialize in our 14-inch pancakes. It kind of got our name on the map,” noted Murphy. “Our big focus point is over-feeding people and making them under-pay. That’s our bang-for-the-buck mentality. Quality, consistency and freshness is what we really like to do.”

Billy Gail’s, at 3300 Gretna Road, Suite C, the former Tequilas 2 location, is open for breakfast and lunch daily and dinner three days a week. Hours are Monday through Thursday 7 a.m. until 4 p.m., 7 a.m. until 9 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, and 7 a.m. until 8 p.m. on Sunday.

Murphy invites locals and visitors to come try their new facility. Said Murphy, “It’s a place where you can guarantee that you’re not going to leave hungry.”

Billy Gail's staff invite you to stop in at their new location.
