Birds and stray cats are assigned that duty. 3) the food is NOT fresh. This is a fast food burger joint and everything is clearly kept in the freezer. 4) not a stop for anyone who cares about what they put in their body. Aside from the poor food options, the ice cream and drinks are all filled with fake ingredients. 5) The staff is friendly, but the service is gawd-awful S-L-O-W.... Gas stations on the interstate have MUCH better offerings....

After spending several hours on the casino floor with great success my elderly dad and I decided to…read moregrab lunch and a cold beer before resuming play. This cafe is located right off the casino floor and is an open air layout with easy access for my dad's electric wheelchair. The staff here was very friendly and attentive and we were seated without a wait. Our server was the best she make sure our table was well suited to seat my dad and moved things around to make him comfortable. We each ordered a cold bottled beer to toast our outing which arrived immediately as we looked over the menu - we both started with a cup of chicken and sausage gumbo which was absolutely delicious and a amazing large portion for the price. My dad ordered one of his favorites, a nicely prepared ribeye steak cooked perfectly and hand cut fries and I ordered a pair of perfectly fried bone-in pork chops (so crispy and delicious) - we both skipped the side vegetables and mashed potatoes and opted for a chilled side salad to keep inline with our healthy entree and appetizer choices. The quality of the food was excellent, the service was outstanding and the prices beyond reasonable. We didn't sign up for a player's card at the casino and probably could of gotten this meal comp'ed with the amount of play prior to having lunch but that's okay since our visits here are infrequent. The food was all delicious and my dad is still talking about how much he enjoyed his steak - we both had a wonderful experience here and would definitely come again...

During lunch today I happened to be in the Deridder area so I decided to give them a try. My first impression of the place was "this place serves food?" It looks like a rural truck stop, with a mechanic on-duty next door and a salvage yard in the back. Nevertheless, I decided to go in and give it a try. The place is pretty much a convenience store, with a grill that not only serves burgers, but also Krispy Krunchy Chicken and Hunt Brothers Pizza. They have a really comprehensive menu, serving breakfast to fried seafood dinners. Since everyone at the plant raved about the double bacon cheeseburger, I decided to give that a try, along with waffle fries and a drink. The lady behind the counter informed me the Coca Cola soda fountain was out-of-order the day I visited, and I should pick up a bottled soda instead. After taking my order, she informed me there is a 20 minute wait for the food to be ready. I decided to sit in the dining area to wait, and it is a small area with a TV playing FOX News (the remote was available if anyone wanted to change the channel). Overall it is clean and there is WiFi but I didn't ask for the password. Poteet's Pit Stop is clearly popular as many people came and went as I waited. There were also a lot of people who called in earlier and just came to pick up their orders. About 20 minutes passed and my food was ready. I picked up my drink and decided to eat in the car, in consideration of social distancing during this COVID-19 period. There is a Baptist Church with a large parking lot next door so I decided to stop there to dine in my vehicle. The fries turned out to be hot, freshly made, and has the right amount of seasoning. Best of all was the burger, which was hot and fresh with a generous amount of grilled onions, cheese, and bacon. I opted for the jalapeno bread, which made a difference, and overall it made a hearty meal. Overall, Poteet's Pit Stop was quite a surprise, and is perhaps one of Deridder's best-kept secrets for an excellent burger. The service was friendly, the ladies working were real sweethearts, and the food just wonderful. I will certainly come back the next time I am looking for lunch in the area!
