If your driving out 20 through Wells Point on a Friday or Saturday...STOP HERE! Robertson's Ham, Smoked Meats, and gas station is an unassuming convenience store during the week. But, on Friday's and Saturday's from 4:30pm-8:30pm it transforms into something magical. A buffet of good simple eatin. mPay at the counter, then walk into a quant dining room with styrofoam plates, plastic silverware, and all the fried catfish and shrimp you can eat! A self serve of catfish(whole & fillets), butterfly shrimp, french fries, hushpuppies, baked potatoes, fried okra, mac n cheese, beans, and more! No fluff, just good people, serving up good food! The staff are kind and welcoming, and the other patrons are your neighbors holding friendly conversations while everyone fixes their plates. It's one of the few places where folks of various backgrounds, ethnicities, and demographics, break bread together and respect each other. For that reason alone, it's worth venturing out. To take a step back to a place and time when things were simple, clean, and good. What you know bout dem Green Tomato Pickles? Grab Momo and'em and come get some of this country goodness.

Robertson's Ham / The Red Barn - Desserts Near Me - Wills Point, Texas

Delicious all you can eat catfish and shrimp for $20 a person on Friday and Saturday nights. The crawfish etouffee pies were amazing as was the cherry cobbler and ice cream. The catfish was good and comes out hot and they refill it at a good pace. The service was great and the atmosphere is casual with oldies music playing. read more

Great service and excellent quality. The workers were super helpful and pleasant. They helped us find other local spots to try and we even went back the next day on our way out of town. Would recommend it to anyone who finds themselves in the area. read more

This is a little country place right off I-20, so don't expect fancy! Be hungry! The food is really good! The fried catfish, shrimp, and two kinds of hush puppies were very fresh and hot. I also tried one of the crawfish pies, and it was delicious. The cold boiled shrimp is a nice alternative to the fried stuff. Desserts were all homemade and there's a soft serve ice cream machine to top them off. Waitresses kept our drinks filled and the empty plates cleared. It's a bargain at just $20 per person for all-you-can-eat every Friday and Saturday evening. read more

Went in the first time and got a thing of beef jerky and a sandwich. The ham was great, the beef jerky definitely wasn't for me. The service was friendly. The lady at the counter was definitely kind. Second time I got a burger and fries. Flavor was good but the burger was very small for $10. I may go back for something different just because of how much I liked the employees read more

New place for us to try. Don't think we'll be going back. The best part of the meal was the service. These girls really hustled. All the fried foods, catfish, shrimp, okra, hush puppies were all fried to long so they were hard. The boiled shrimp was excellent. The crab salad, beans and potato salad were great. Couldn't get enough of them. Had to quit trying. The pies and Ice cream were all good. Not priced to bad for all you can eat. It's easy to get to. Just off the interstate. Parking is very limited, but you can park across the frontage road. Plenty of parking over there. read more

On entering, you are required to pay in advance which is no big deal. Room is set up as a country kitchen, homie feel. Plates were styrofoam and were hard to separate. You could tell customers were local and known. Food was kept fresh during our visit, just wish they could do more for the boiled shrimp. It was served cold with no flavor. Horseradish was available if you asked for it. Filets were good and hot as well as the whole fish. Yeast rolls were great and warm. You had a choice of 4 deserts, all warm. Banana pudding and bread pudding were the best. Also had peach and cherry cobbler. Also available was a ice cream machine. read more

First time at this location but I wasn't impressed. Just stopped in for a simple fresh sandwich. We got a turkey, a ham and a sausage sandwich. Everything was sliced to order so had high hopes. They have condiments for you to make your sandwich your way. Mayo mustard , sweet relish, ketchup, pickles, sliced onions and jalapeños. So we added everything to our liking and headed out. The Oklahoma location when I visited before Covid had a bar with multiple pickled items that were homemade and delicious. This location didn't have this. The sandwich were lackluster they were fresh but not much flavor in the meats. read more

Ham sandwich was great, nothing fancy just bread, cheese , ham & mayo. You have to let the ham speak for itself. It's very good. Buttermilk pie was fantastic, the crust balanced the sweetness perfectly. The turnovers especially the cherry made my wife and daughter crazy. I bought some of their soft jerky($20) it is average at best. Ill try the original next time. The staff was friendly and the shop itself is small and welcoming. I will buy some of their meats next time through. read more

Robertson's Ham / The Red Barn - the inside of the restaurant - Desserts Near Me - Wills Point, Texas

What a sweetheart of a place to stop for a quick sandwich/snacks made by the sweetest people. We followed the signs and it led us to a place we will for sure visit again. Loved the country vibe of this establishment read more

We went to the buffet The Red Barn has on Friday and Saturday evenings. There was ample food and most was hot but just okay. I know this sounds funny but the fish was too fishy tasting and I love good catfish, which this was not. The desserts were not good at all. We won't be returning. read more

Stop in to small town charm and good burgers. I am not a catfish fan but all my friend who are love it. read more

Want an old-fashioned burger? This is the place! Great burgers and fries! They put everything on the side so you can put on what you want!

Never disappointed with Robertson's! We usually go once a month, the waitress even knows our drink order before we ask for it! Excellent customer service. Always a smile on their faces. read more

This place is a dump food was decent but customer service was horrible don't recommend won't be going back

Very nice people and their catfish buffet was great. I love their ham sandwiches. Summer sausage is good too. Display case with all their meat was impressive read more

Still some of the BEST ham you can get!! I love that place. if you stop on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, "The Red Barn" is open. all you can eat cat fish, and other GREAT food!! If your in a BIG truck, they have plenty of parking across the street. read more

I've seen the signs for Robertson's REAL Beef Jerky along I-20 dozens and dozens of times when trekking my to/from Louisiana and finally was hungry enough on my way home to stop and grab a sammich. Pulling up past the old school gas station pumps (numeric wheels? Haven't seen those in a decade) into the dirt parking lot took me back to my formative years out in the sticks. Grab a Coke out of the cooler, mosey up to the counter, and order a sandwich. The most expensive sandwich is $3.99. My $2.99 sandwich had about a half pound of DELICIOUS ham and a slice of swiss cheese. I also grabbed a homemade cherry turnover, which was awesome. It was like a Hostess Pie on 'roids. I ate my sandwich outside on a picnic table listening to the hum of traffic passing by on I-20 and enjoyed the simple taste of a well made ham sandwich. Good times. read more

Of the 3 Robertson's I've been to, this one is the best. It is the largest and has the best selection. This is a must stop if you ever get stuck driving between Dallas and Houston. Try both the beef jerkey and the turkey jerkey. Both are excellent. They also have various sandwiches which will help your hunger while you do the long drive. The sandwiches are around $4. read more

The old man behind the counter up front was RUDE. He got an attitude when we were just trying to look in the dining room area for our family. He told us we HAD to order to go in the dining area, almost as if we were going to try and steal food. First time and will. It be going back to support the business. read more

Hands down the best barbeque brisket sandwich in East Texas. Comes with great cole slaw, homemade french fries or potato salad. Will return soon! read more

This place isn't too far from us so we like to order fried Catfish on the weekend. They have an all you can catfish and shrimp buffet on Friday & Saturday night. We have eldery parents at home so we usually get to go orders. Everything is good here... Fried & homemade pies, smoked ham, turkey, and bacon, beef jerky, etc. Sometimes when we are craving BBQ we stop and get sandwiches and take them home. All their food is great. We are regulars. read more

The meat is apparently family owned and you can tell! It was so amazing and lean. My boyfriend and I both got hamburgers. He got the potato salad with the hamburger which he said is the best he's ever had. I thought the same thing about the onion rings! Overall it was an 11/10 experience and if we are ever in Van Zandt again we will definitely come back! read more

The best fried catfish in east Texas. They offer catfish (fillet or whole) , shrimp (boiled & fried) and great sides. Clean, friendly, and worth the price......my favorite place. read more

Yummy all you can eat catfish and shrimp. The tea was so good and the cherry and peach cobbler blew me away. Love their ham sandwiches and buy the beef jerky. This is our go to place when driving in Dallas. $15 per person during the catfish/shrimp buffet. Its so worth the money. Delicious! read more

The very best catfish ever!! Service is super & very helpful. We love coming to this restaurant when in the area.

This is my favorite beef jerky in the world. First time I've ever stopped in a store. I was hoping it would be cheaper at their place, but it isn't really. But it's worth it. I do regret eating a pound of beef jerky in two days, though. read more

Love Robertson's. Nothing like a fresh ham sandwich on your way home. However, this one got 3 stars because the lady working was really rude. read more

Meh. Ham sandwiches were terrible. I won't exit the highway to eat those again. I might try their catfish buffet on the weekends though, if I'm in the area fishing again. read more

Jerky is subpar and the lady working there is very rude. Much better jerky and service up the road at Bucee's in Terrell. You're better off skipping this one. read more

This place is awesome. You should go on their all you can eat catfish night. Fridays and Saturdays. Its pretty busy on them days but its worth the wait. read more
