This is AMAZING BBQ!! Don't expect matching chairs or air conditioning or heat- but the brisket is amazing. I'd eat it every meal. Seriously. And, if the cobbler is available- buy the pan. Vegetarian options: None available. Parking: 5 spots to park out front; get your food, eat and go or take it home to bask in the glory. You are welcome on the street too but don't block it.
Without question the best part of Pat's is the friendly service and accomodating gentlemen operating the place. Beyond that, it's hard to understand the reputation or glowing reviews. The 'que is bland, potato salad uninspired and cole slaw "just okay". The place may have been "quaint" at one time, but it's unsanitary and violates more than a few health codes. It's honorable to try keeping a multi-generational business open, and I'm sure they have seen better days, but this one is long overdue for permanent retirement. So wish I could wax eloquently about this East Texas BBQ haven, but despite the really fair pricing and hospitality, it's time to blow taps and lower the flag.
Worth the drive — it’s real Texas barbecue, “the best I’ve ever had” a buddy from Louisiana said
i’ve had some good barbecue in my times but this place was easily hands down the most finger licking meat i’ve ever had. service was 100000/10, will come again for sure with my entire family tree
The food was extraordinary!! They were so nice and down to earth people. Peach cobbler was phenomenal!! Very cheap food. So delicious!! 1000/10 God bless this shop!!
Wow... Worth the drive and worthy of the hype. I was so pleased with my visit. I had the brisket and sausage with beans and some other worldly potato salad. The large plate was $12!! The potato salad was absolutely delicious. I got a large to-go because it was THAT good. Meats were awesome, service was super friendly. Highly recommended.
