Pickett House Restaurant in Texas

"This place was great, Coming from Houston, we decided to stop for lunch. The fried chicken was so good, and the sides were amazing. Everything we ate was hot and fresh. I love the honey on the table. They actually sell it, and I purchase 3. I love that they keep checking on you to see if you need more food. The staff was very friendly. The bathrooms are very clean, and after you eat, you can walk the nature trail. It was so peaceful and beautiful. Thank you, Pickett House, for providing us with delicious food, great service, and beautiful memories."

"We loved this place. The decor is vintage and just a home warming atmosphere. The food was family style, all of of it was amazing. Chicken moist and juicy. Chicken and dumplings are to die for. Biscuits super soft and melts in your mouth! Service is great, staff very friendly. It is all you can eat and very worth the visit. We are 5 hours away but glad we found this place!"

"Delicious "homestyle" cooking in a country atmosphere. All you can eat, and it's so good you can eat a lot! After eating you can tour the old country town they have with a museum of house drawn buggy, a blacksmith shop, old post office, school house and church. So many things to see. A great family outing."

"Interesting place. The fried chicken was great. I think the biscuits were my favorite. They sell day old biscuits too. I bought some of the day old biscuits and they were very good."

"If you are near Woodville you need to stop here and eat! Their fried chicken was scrumptious!! My husband loved their chicken and dumplings. We even bought some to bring home. So very good."

"An established restaurant that is part of a larger museum complex. Food is served family style. You order your entrees, drinks and type of bread at the counter and pay, then you sit and your food is brought to the table with bowls full of sides--we had the fried chicken and the sides were chkn &dumplings, greens, black-eyed peas, and yams. The food is danged good and the service is friendly and responsive with frequent checking to see if more food needs to be brought to the table. Loved it. There is also a pretty good gift shop next door staffed with some of the friendliest people around."

"I have been coming to the Pickett House since I was a little girl. My grandmother went to school in the building. I live in Houston but when I have had the toughest times and the deepest sorrows, I return to the Pickett House for the nostalgic comfort that I can rely on not to change. Heidi is always there to great me. Troy is always there to make me laugh. The chicken is amazing. The dumplings are my absolute favorite and the pinto beans I had the last time were the best I had ever had. The addition of the ice cream to the peach cobbler was a fantastic choice. This is the place to be when the world feels sad and you want the most comforting meal you could ever have."

"This is a great place for large or small parties. The food and service are awesome. Parking may be a bit troublesome, but there are no major issues. We've been there many times and we'll keep going back. Thank you."
