Rhome's Best Restaurant

Rhome is small, but its appetite is huge. Sure, you’ll find brisket that falls apart like a promise kept, but the real surprise is a hardware store employee who treats your lawn like his own.

From pit-smoked ribs to a strawberry field that tastes like June, this town runs on genuine, unpretentious effort. The proof is in the service, the smoke rings, and the handshake at the counter.

Here’s where to eat, shop, and stay.

Big Tony's BBQ Kitchen

Highlights
New standard for Texas BBQ
Meats need no sauce
Friendly service from the door
Smoky flavor, melt-in-mouth texture
Legit, tested, and vouch-worthy

Big Tony's BBQ Kitchen raises the bar for Texas barbecue, and I say that having eaten at a fair share of smokehouses. The brisket is the star, with a smoky flavor that lingers and a melt-in-your-mouth texture that makes sauce feel like an afterthought. I walked in and was greeted warmly from the door, which set the tone. The ribs are legit too, and everything I tried felt tested and vouch-worthy. If you want barbecue that doesn't need a crutch, this is it. I’d drive out of my way for this place again. No question.

LocalCraft BBQ

Highlights
Great Texas barbecue
Fantastic pork belly and ribs
Kind owner, shows kitchen
Top-notch jalapeño sausage
Delicious banana pudding

LocalCraft BBQ is the kind of place that makes you rethink what barbecue should be. The pork belly is fantastic, rich and fatty with a perfect char, and the ribs are just as impressive. The owner actually came out to show us the smoker, which tells you how much pride they take in the craft. The jalapeño sausage has a real kick, and the banana pudding is a sweet, creamy finish that you shouldn’t skip. I left full, happy, and already planning my next visit. It's that good.

Demases Farm

Highlights
Sweet ripe strawberries
Friendly, helpful staff
Spacious u-pick fields
Great homemade jam
Fun family outing

Demases Farm is a great spot to grab fresh strawberries, and I’m not just saying that because I left with three baskets. The berries are sweet, juicy, and taste like actual sunshine. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the u-pick fields are spacious, so you’re not fighting for rows. They also have homemade jam that’s perfect on toast or straight off a spoon. It’s a fun outing for the family, and I could see making it a weekend tradition. Simple, honest, and worth the trip.

MrJims.Pizza is all about speed and quality, which is a rare combo. The thin crust is perfectly crispy, with just enough chew. The service is fast and friendly, and the staff on the phone actually knew what they were talking about when I called to order. I stopped by for a quick morning pickup, and they had it ready before I could even check my phone. If you need pizza that’s reliable and tasty without the wait, this is your spot. I’ll be back, probably sooner than later.

Ace Hardware Rhome

Highlights
Efficient, friendly service
Quick, knowledgeable assistance
Personal thank-you gesture
Outstanding EGO mower experience
Genuine customer appreciation

Ace Hardware in Rhome is more than just a store; it's a lifeline. I walked in needing help with a lawn question, and the staff was efficient and friendly, pointing me to the right thing fast. Then I saw the EGO mower display, and the guy took the time to explain the battery system, no pressure. He even wrote down a few tips. As I was leaving, he said thanks and meant it. That’s the kind of genuine customer appreciation that makes you want to shop local. I’ll be back for all my hardware needs.

Grub Truck Y'all

Highlights
Best burger in Rhome
Friendly, helpful staff
Excellent catered corporate lunches
Chicken salad with raspberry vinaigrette

Grub Truck Y'all is the best burger in Rhome, and I’ll defend that claim. The patty is juicy, the bun holds up, and the toppings are fresh. The staff is friendly and helpful, even when the line gets long. They also do catered corporate lunches, which my office loved, and the chicken salad with raspberry vinaigrette is a nice, lighter option that doesn’t skimp on flavor. Whether you’re grabbing lunch or planning an event, this truck delivers. I give it my full endorsement.

Newark RV Park by Eagle Mountain Lake is a peaceful retreat. The owners are genuinely caring, always checking in to see if you need anything, and they’re responsive when you have a question. The grounds are clean and well-managed, with trees providing shade and a sense of calm. The new RV spots are level and convenient. It’s quiet, safe, and honestly feels like a small community. I’ve stayed at a lot of parks, and this one stands out for the personal touch. Five stars from me.

PJ Fresh Marketplace

PJ Fresh Marketplace is the kind of place you stumble upon and then can’t stop talking about. The produce is fresh, the shelves are stocked, and it feels like a farm stand meets a corner store. I didn’t catch the owner’s name, but the whole vibe is genuine and unpretentious. It’s not a big chain, which is exactly why I like it. If you’re in the area and need anything from snacks to essentials, stop in. You’ll leave with more than you planned, and you’ll be happy about it.

Ginger Brown's Old Tyme Restaurant & Bakery

Highlights
1950s time capsule diner
Generous affordable home cooking
Friendly service, 35 years
Consistent since day one

Ginger Brown's Old Tyme Restaurant & Bakery is like stepping into a 1950s time capsule, and I mean that in the best way. The diner atmosphere is charming, with booths and a counter that feel authentic. The food is home cooking at its finest, generous portions and affordable prices. I had the meatloaf, and it tasted like something my grandmother would make. The staff is friendly, and the place has been consistent for 35 years, which says everything. If you want comfort food that doesn’t try too hard, this is it.

Taco Time Mexican Grill

Highlights
Fast service, clean space
Tender, flavorful fajita meat
Excellent rice and beans
Breakfast burrito disappoints

Taco Time Mexican Grill gets the basics right, which is why I keep coming back. The service is fast, and the place is clean, which is more than I can say for some taco spots. The fajita meat is tender and flavorful, seasoned well without being overpowering. The rice and beans are solid, too. However, the breakfast burrito disappoints; it’s dry and lacks the punch of their lunch menu. Still, if you stick to the tacos and fajitas, you’ll leave satisfied. I’ll just skip the morning order next time.

Accommodating in advance

The Ranch at Rhome RV Park isn't just a place to park your rig; it's a place to breathe.

The park is conveniently close to Haslet, making it easy to visit family or run errands. It's quiet at night, which I appreciate, and the overall vibe is welcoming. If you're looking for a stress-free spot to land, this is it. They genuinely care about your stay.

B4 Barbeque

Highlights
Brisket is super tender, juicy
Charro beans have great spices
Burnt ends are otherworldly
Tres leches is heaven on earth

B4 Barbeque serves brisket that is super tender and juicy, with a smoke ring that tells you they know what they're doing. The charro beans are spiced just right, a hearty side that could be a meal on its own. And the burnt ends? Otherworldly. They’re caramelized, smoky, and almost buttery. For dessert, the tres leches is heaven on earth, soaked and sweet without being cloying. This is old-school barbecue done with care. I’d say it’s a hidden win for the area, but honestly, it deserves to be famous.
