Lost In The Fifties Roadhouse
On Hwy 59 approximately 1/4 mile south of the Angelina River bridge.
Redland (Lufkin), TX
936-639-5750
(Angelina county is dry, so you'll see a plethora of beer joints on the Nacogdoches county side of the river.)
Open:
8am - 9pm, Sun.-Thur.
8am - 11pm, Fri. & Sat.
Don't let the outside appearannce throw you. This old building set in the middle of a decaying 1930's motor hotel, but has great food.
Great hamburgers and chicken fried steaks!
Even better onion rings. (if you are eating anything else, buy a half order!)
It's a greasy spoon. They have a great collection of authentic 1950's memorabilia collecting dust on the walls. The food is very reasonably priced. It's not far from my work so I eat there every couple of weeks. I've never been disappointed.
I enjoy imagining Hank Williams or Elvis stopping there to spend the night because it was the only motorhotel between Shrevesport and Houston back in the 1960's.
