Ruby Cafe

You did a real good thing here, Lacey.

— Hank, "Ruby Reborn".

The gang at the Ruby.

The Ruby is the only restaurant in Dog River, is owned by Lacey Burrows and is attached to Corner Gas. Josh works there as the cook and busboy. It was passed to Lacey by her aunt Ruby after she died. Lacey renamed the restaurant "The Ruby" to honour her late aunt. Brent often eats a chili cheese dog there. Its bulletin board is used for various messages by the community. It's been used for various functions including a wedding rehearsal dinner. ("Wedding Card") Its first appearance is in the Season 1 episode "Ruby Reborn".
