The Daytripper: Ray’s Drive-In has been serving up delicious burgers since 1959. If you’ve got the stomach, go for the Ray’s Special with melty cheese and grilled onions.
The Daytripper: Now if you’re looking for piles of delicious smoked meat, then look no further than Lufkin BBQ with its tasty brisket, ribs, and all the fixins which includes their famous fried rolls.
The Daytripper: Check out Standpipe Coffee House in downtown Lufkin. It’s a unexpected and truly hip little coffee shop in a historic building. For something sweet, go with a signature “Standpipe Latte".
