Best Old-fashioned Feed Store

Buck Moore Feed Store

When Buck Moore opened in an old grocery building 23 years ago, Lamar was known as the Dallas Highway. A drive-in theater sat on the corner of Lamar and Koenig Lane, the Stallion Drive-in across the street sold the best chicken-fried steaks in town, and the Buck Moore Feed Store served mostly farmers and ranchers. Now the store serves mainly urban pets, but it still offers top-quality pet and farm feed and supplies with friendly service. This is the best place in town to get bag balm for your udders, tail and mane shampoo, or a new catnip toy; they also sell garden seeds - packaged or in bulk - old-fashioned ceramic pots, and jewelry. Still family owned and operated, it usually has one of the three generations of Moores behind the counter.
