    This is all that made my camera roll as I dug into my meal too fast!!!
    Don L.

    I had heard of this place for 3 years by Austin TX locals saying if you ever go near Atlanta TX that I had to try this place and wow is it everything and more!!! I was in town for training and I made this my lunch stop for the day. It is family owned and I felt adopted the moment I walked in the entry way! This is the standard that is Barbecue. Everything about it tells you it is made with a real passion for quality and consistency. The family; father, mother and daughter all put energy into making this a success. I grabbed a tray, cup, and utensils. Proceeded to try their lemonade which was fine on this hot day. The 3 meat platter was a no-brainer. The presentation of piled meats made my eyes drool. I had the brisket, ribs and sausage which came very generously portioned. I was in heaven. I also added the sides of scalloped potatoes, greens, and fried okra. They supplied a biscuit to top it all off! Let's just say if your still reading and not driving there then my writing has failed! The flavor is everything I had hoped for and more! I gorged myself and felt like a glutton albeit a happy one! :) Once I thought I could have no more the daughter delivered me a cobbler topped with ice cream and whipped cream with cherry! Oh my goodness! I have to say I truly love this place. My meal was beyond fantastic however the family and their passion for their craft really had me. That is something big business can not duplicate but rather poorly imitate. I'd eat here at least twice a week if I lived around town. This guy knows his meats and the family really knows how to make you feel welcome.

    Ten stars. When the lady at the front counter tells you "these are the best ribs ya ever gonna have" or "it's the best XYZ you're ever gonna have." She means it---and she's right. This unsuspecting joint in Atlanta, Texas was a Yelp treasure find during our trip from Indiana to Houston. Upon entering, patrons snag a tray and work their way down the line of meats and sides like meatloaf, smoked chicken, sausage, ribs (truly the best you'll ever have), sliced beef, Mac and cheese (SO good), cowboy beans, green beans, scalloped potatoes and more. For dessert you'll find an array of cakes and pies made-in-house like coconut pie, strawberry cake and peach cobbler (option to add ice cream on top). They also make the rolls and cornbread in house. Be prepared to need a carry out box for this budget friendly and super tasty establishment. You'll easily find parking on site and enjoy the convenience of their I59 location. The best part of the entire experience was the warm hospitality of the owner, Tommy, and his staff/family. It was clear this business was chock full of locals and regulars who knew the owners and vice versa. Take note of the fun murals on all of the walls with celebrities and the staff depicted. Cannot recommend this business enough.

    Some Great Bbq!!!

    Stopped at The Rabbit Patch passing through Atlanta, TX on a road trip and ended up having a really…read moresolid mid-afternoon lunch. It was pretty quiet for a Wednesday, so they didn't have a full staff on, but service didn't suffer at all--our food came out quick and fresh. We ordered a Monte Cristo, fajita quesadillas, bacon cheese fries, sweet potato fries, mini corn dogs for the kids, plus a birthday cake and a chocolate shake. The bacon cheese fries looked incredible but didn't quite live up to the hype. I wanted the cheese to be more melty but it was pretty dry. Everything else, though, was excellent. The fresh-cut fries were hot and crispy, the Monte Cristo was top notch, and the quesadillas disappeared before I even had a chance to grab a picture. Overall, a great stop if you're passing through--especially if you're craving something fresh and made-to-order. Solid 4 out of 5 stars.

    When I travel. I don't need expensive or fancy or even trendy restaurants, I just need good ones…read more If you are traveling through NE Texas and need a tasty burger from good folks- don't miss the Rabbit Patch. The owners have designed a really creative and novel approach to their restaurant, tying their theme into the local football team and high school in a classy down home way. Additionally, on our visit, despite clearly looking like we were from way out of town, the staff was friendly, on point, and treated us wonderfully. Additionally, the burgers are fantastic! Not all small town joints can pull this off. Highly recommend!
