Stanley’s Famous Pit Barbecue is famous for a reason
Residents here are close to some of the city’s favorite dining spots. Stanley’s Famous Pit Barbecue is famous for a reason, as its pork ribs have won numerous awards since the eatery was established in 1958. But the restaurant, which has been featured in multiple publications, is popular for more than smoked meats. “They have great barbecue, but if you go, you have to ask for a side of pickles,” says Myriah Boles, local Realtor with Standard Realty Group. “I'm not sure what it is, but they really have the best pickles.” Mama’s Restaurant and Happy’s Fish House are also popular eateries along East Fifth Street. For a night out, Tyler City Square is under 2 miles away and includes several local bars and breweries. Brookshire’s provides the neighborhood with fresh groceries, while the Friendly Baptist Church is one of many houses of worship serving the area. The nearest retail center is the Broadway Square shopping mall, under 4 miles away.
