Historical Gold Nugget Restaurant a Wickenburg Landmark The main building was build in 1863. The coffee shop was built in 1890 along with the building to the west (originally Murphy's Grocery). to the east was a livery stable (where the present day gift shop is located). At the turn of he century the Cafe was expanded to include the area that is now the Gift shop, Murphy's Grocery was changed to the local Post Office for several years. During the late 30's the Post Office was converted to a saloon and in 1952 the back portion of the restaurant was added, expanding the establishment to approximately 8,000 square feet which included the three tier Main Dinning Room, alcove, foyer and conference room. The chandeliers in the main Dinning room are treasured rare antiques imported from France. some of the original cafe fixtures are still being use today. Due to a fire that all but destroyed the addition, the building was remodeled in 1980 at which time the "Rose" Stained Glass Window and elaborate oak woodwork was added along with the Baby Grand Player piano.
