Dead End Trading Post

Just visited the dead End Trading Post for the first time -- a WONDERFUL experience! The BBQ was really good, not dry or oversmoked as some are. I had the sliced beef sandwich, my friend had the chopped beef. These sandwiches were on 5 inch rolls and LOADED with meat. They were accompanied with delicious mustard potato salad (other choices were also available for your side). To wash it down, they offer many choices of (canned) beer -- no draft or glasses. Your beer choice is presented in a cousie, something I have not seen before. The wait staff is very friendly, giving you the feeling they REALLY want you to return. We also had banana pudding for dessert, the best I've had in a long time.The ambiance was perfect for an old style BBQ & bar restaurant -- wooden tables and chairs throughout. Just like you would expect -- not shiny and sterile like so many are these days.Thank you all at Dead End. I'll definately be back soon.

This is such a super cute/unique spot! Thry have indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoors is decorated like an old western town, so neat! I use to come here all the time when it was Bohannan Ranch and loved it. Hadn't been back since it changed hands and became Dead End Trading Post. The kid and I are on our "D" restaurant, so we decided to stop in and get some breakfast. I ordered the breakfast bowl which comes with biscuit, eggs, home fries, sausage gravy and cheese. The portion was huge so I only ate about 1/4 of it! It was yummy though! Kid ordered the breakfas6 burrito which he told me was very good between all his mmmmhhmmmss. The burrito also came with home fries. I would like to come back and try their lunch/dinner sometime.They don't have a soda machine, so you'll be paying $2.50 for each can of soda. They also sell beer, wine, and seltzers, but no liqour. They also have live music, not sure of the specific days though, so check their website or FB.

The biggest turn off was that it's located in an RV park... it was a long drive for us, coming from Decatur so for it to be located in an RV park was really disappointing. The food was okay. Brisket was dry. Beer was warm. Service was decent (nice just slow). We won't personally go back nor recommend it

This place is the bomb ! My husband had ribs, brisket and sausage with beans and potato salad and banana pudding for dessert. I had a brisket sandwich, a salad with blue cheese dressing, and a loaded baked potato. Everything was absolutely delicious and the service was excellent. Misty was our waitress. I would definitely recommend this place and we will be back.

We have a friend that lives in the RV park. So we visit often. The food and service are outstanding. We had quite a few of the menu items. I love the loaded brisket nachos and the bbq bologna sandwich are 2 of my favorites. Their queso is the best mu husband loves the phili cheese steak quesadilla and the rattlers (a stuffed jalapeño wrapped in bacon. And I can't forget the banana pudding. It is phenomenal. Every server makes you like family. We also like to go for the Cowboy Football Bingo. I highly recommend it.

I went yesterday with my son and fiancé. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was laid back and filled with Texas hospitality. We played football bingo and they had a poker tournament going as well. They only sell beer and not liquor but you can bring your own bottle and they'll give you bottle service for a small charge. Very Texan place to go.

What a hidden gem! Great bbq and such a fun unique atmosphere. Staff was so friendly. Try the riddlers! Can't wait to come back.
