Pockets' Grille - Smithville

Sunday-drive on a Saturday took us to the town of Smithville, TX, best known for movie Hope Floats (photo). Pocket 's Grille was a good choice to eat. Big menu with something for everyone; friendly order-taker made an old guy feel welcome, calling me 'hun '; variety of seating options. Wife had blue cheese mushroom burger, no bun. I adapted their BLT to a BT on white bread not toasted with extra mayo, plus coleslaw. Food was very good. Food soft drinks: $24. A solid 4 .

Dr. Pepper tasted like fish water. Owner was rude about it. I choked down my sandwich. My husband could not eat his food at all. It was that bad. Never will return here. Bad first time experience. We took our done in to go so we could get drinks at the convenience store.

Had the spicy chicken sandwich and fried okra. Both were very good. The only thing is my bun was burnt but was still good. Seems like a really cool place with large menu. I?m glad I stopped by.

Huge menu, has a bit of everything to please everyone. Every time I eat here or order for takeout, the staff is friendly and the food is good. There is a nice play yard for kiddos outside. Only downside- the menus on their website are old and do not reflect the current prices!

I ordered the guacamole chicken swiss samich. Was really delicious and very carefully prepared. I was super impressed! Nice staff and chef. Absolutely recommend. Get Some!!
