Taylor Cafe - Taylor, TX

The corrugated tin and wire mesh door let you know that the Taylor Cafe is first and foremost a Texas honkytonk that also serves some of the best BBQ in the state.

Octogenarian owner and pit boss Vencil Mares opened the Cafe in 1948 right alongside the railroad tracks and still shows up for work daily, smoking and serving the traditional Texas fare of brisket, sausage (beef and turkey), chicken and limited sides.
