East Texas Burger Co.
A hole in the wall kind of joint you absolutely should stop at if you're hungry. Apricot fried pies, sweet potato fries, peanut butter pie and the best burgers -- ever. "Don't know what they put in those burgers but they sure have a unique flavor... savory yet different." (Taste of American Blogspot)

Nostalgic. Eclectic. Cozy and friendly. Bonnie & Clyde, Dan Rather, and Sissy Spacek ate here. Usually packed. You'll wonder if you'll get a table. The answer is yes. Sister restaurant La Waffalata (baseball-broadway bakery/deli) is located next door. They even have a private dining room for large groups. "Just look for the bass with a burger in his flippers..." On the big red awning over the front door. 1st Place People's Choice Winners. Both restaurants. Mineola's oldest eatin' place. Taste why! Apricot bread pudding with Amaretto sauce... Need we say more? Dine in or out. We cater. Located on Hwy 80 at the corner of Hwy 69. ETBC is open 7 days a week. Monday - Saturday 11:00 to 8:00. Sunday 11:00 to 3:00. La Waffalata is open Tuesday - Saturday. Lunch and Brunch only.
