    Great food! Had to stop and try the crab poppers, soft shell crab and kickin shrimp Po boy. All was excellent!

    This place is a great little place to eat along the side of the road. Their kickn shrimp poboy is amazing, definitely gonna go back with the family next time we're down in that neck of the woods. You could definitely taste the freshness in the seafood, didn't have to wait long for the order and there was ample seating. While the portion was somewhat small, definitely makes up for it in the flavor of each bite.

    This was a tasty and fun stop along our scenic drive. From all the good reviews I saw on yelp I decided to stop, glad we did! It was hot and fresh, the fish had a really nice light batter. Thanks for the excellent food!

    we stopped for lunch here today as we traveled the Creole Nature Trail. Had the shrimp basket and kicken shrimp po-boy with onion rings. Food was hot and tasted great. Very friendly service. Don't let looks deceive you. Highly recommend it.

    We took the creole nature trail from Texas through Louisiana and Anchors Up was along the trail. The building itself didn't look like much but the food was great and the staff were super friendly. We felt very welcome here and like we were part of the family. My father had the burger and he was very impressed, I had the BLT it was loaded with bacon, my husband had the po boy shrimp sandwich which was full of flavor, my daughter and picky eater had chicken tenders she ate every last one. It was a great stop on our vacation from Indiana through Louisiana.

This location seems like a cross between a restaurant and a convenience store, but don't let its humble appearance fool you. There's some great burgers to be had here! I guess we should start with the headliners, which are the stuffed burgers! These hearty creations have a variety of fillings stuffed into the center of the hamburger meat itself, making them a huge moist juicy and delicious handful! The variety of fillings includes mushrooms and Swiss; boudin; BBQ brisket; and even macaroni and cheese. These are a great choice, but one can also get a plain old fashioned hamburger or cheeseburger with toppings outside of the patty if one wishes. There are a choice of breads for these, so if you want it on Texas Toast or a Jalapeno Bun, it's all good! Then you need a side. There are of course fries and onion rings, but also tater tots and sweet potato fries. If you have any room left they have a pretty nice selection of ice cream and frozen treats. This location is just north of I-10, so it's convenient to stop into for a quick lunch. If one is so inclined, you could get an order to go, and enjoy a picnic at the nearby Maplewood Park.

During lunch today I happened to be in the Deridder area so I decided to give them a try. My first impression of the place was "this place serves food?" It looks like a rural truck stop, with a mechanic on-duty next door and a salvage yard in the back. Nevertheless, I decided to go in and give it a try. The place is pretty much a convenience store, with a grill that not only serves burgers, but also Krispy Krunchy Chicken and Hunt Brothers Pizza. They have a really comprehensive menu, serving breakfast to fried seafood dinners. Since everyone at the plant raved about the double bacon cheeseburger, I decided to give that a try, along with waffle fries and a drink. The lady behind the counter informed me the Coca Cola soda fountain was out-of-order the day I visited, and I should pick up a bottled soda instead. After taking my order, she informed me there is a 20 minute wait for the food to be ready. I decided to sit in the dining area to wait, and it is a small area with a TV playing FOX News (the remote was available if anyone wanted to change the channel). Overall it is clean and there is WiFi but I didn't ask for the password. Poteet's Pit Stop is clearly popular as many people came and went as I waited. There were also a lot of people who called in earlier and just came to pick up their orders. About 20 minutes passed and my food was ready. I picked up my drink and decided to eat in the car, in consideration of social distancing during this COVID-19 period. There is a Baptist Church with a large parking lot next door so I decided to stop there to dine in my vehicle. The fries turned out to be hot, freshly made, and has the right amount of seasoning. Best of all was the burger, which was hot and fresh with a generous amount of grilled onions, cheese, and bacon. I opted for the jalapeno bread, which made a difference, and overall it made a hearty meal. Overall, Poteet's Pit Stop was quite a surprise, and is perhaps one of Deridder's best-kept secrets for an excellent burger. The service was friendly, the ladies working were real sweethearts, and the food just wonderful. I will certainly come back the next time I am looking for lunch in the area!
