Take Out

Lone Star Barbecue & Mercantile is predominately a Country Buffet that has choices such as Fried Chicken, Meatloaf Barbecue Ribs, Pork BBQ, and vegetables and an assortment of deserts. There are also Daily Specials that change from day to day like All You Can Eat Barbecue Ribs that are dry rubbed or Stewed Shrimp & Grits to name a couple. Lone Star Barbecue & Mercantile also offers catering and they provide takeout orders. We passed through Santee recently and ate there. I found the food to be unimpressive.

Lone Star also has a Gift Shop that offers various trinkets, books, and toys.

Lone Star Barbecue & Mercantile offers live Country and Bluegrass Music throughout the year, and the atmosphere is rustic and like stepping back in time. It is a very interesting place to visit and is a nice change from the usual Restaurants encountered along I-95. Therefore, if you find yourself traveling down the I-95 corridor and ant a change of pace, I recommend Lone Star Barbecue & Mercantile to break up a trip.
