About the Silver K Café

Johnson City’s Silver K Café (SKC) proprietor, Kay Pratt met Karen Granitz in the summer of 2000 and discovered that they shared the same passion for food, Texas music, entertaining, and the dream of one day owning a restaurant in the Texas Hill Country. Through the support of family, friends, and the community their vision became reality. During the winter of 2001 the owners of the Old Lumber Yard collaborated with the SKC, giving the restaurant a home.

Kay Pratt carries on the vision of serving outstanding Texas Hill Country Cuisine in a ambiance of rustic elegance, featuring Texas wines, fine art by local Texas artists and Texas Singer / Songwriters.

About The Old Lumber Yard

Owner’s of THE OLD LUMBER YARD (TOLY), Jesse & Sandi Kinman purchased this property in the late 1990’s. At one time it was the old Stein Lumber Company. Their dream of developing a premiere shopping complex and their belief that Johnson City was in its youth, helped create their mission of having a unique variety of shops featuring antiques, collectibles, while offering spaces for entrepreneurs. They recognized that Johnson City would soon become a strong competitor with neighboring communities and they wanted to be a part of that history. Many of the architectural features in TOLY are from the original building, such as the wood walls, ceilings, windows, and trim. Memorabilia is scattered throughout the complex, and visitors are invited to tour the grounds and enjoy shopping seven days a week.
