Overview & Highlights

If you’re traveling through or residing near New Boston, TX, Skaggs Country Store & Grill is a standout destination that perfectly blends convenience with hearty, satisfying dining. Located at 3070 West US-82, this diner is far from your average roadside stop. It seamlessly combines a clean, well-maintained country store and a vibrant grill that serves up fresh, made-to-order meals with genuine Southern hospitality.

Customers consistently praise the friendly and attentive staff who create a welcoming atmosphere that feels like a home away from home. Whether you’re stopping in early for breakfast or dropping by for lunch, the warm smiles and genuine kindness make every visit a pleasure.

But the true jewel here is the food. The menu boasts a tempting variety of classic American diner fare with a Southern twist. The bacon cheeseburger, described by multiple guests as “one of the best burgers I've had in the area or anywhere,” captures the essence of indulgence — thick, juicy beef, crispy bacon, and melted cheese all layered between a soft, toasted bun. It’s a bite bursting with smoky, savory goodness that lingers long after the last mouthful.

Breakfast is another highlight, with loyal customers like Cesaré Drake stopping in nearly every morning for expertly prepared plates that fuel their day. The breakfast selection is praised for its generous portions and comforting flavors that make starting your morning on the right foot effortless and enjoyable.

Beyond the diner’s food offerings, the attached country store elevates convenience to the next level. The store is spotlessly clean, with a staff member frequently seen maintaining the space to ensure a pleasant shopping experience. For drivers, the large truck fuel pump with prepay inside offers quick refueling options, including non-ethanol fuel at competitive prices—a big plus noted by travelers and locals alike.

From fresh deli items to daily made-to-order specialties, customers consistently highlight the freshness and quality served here. James Kendrick sums it up well: “Excellent food, friendly people and convenient location! The food here is cooked fresh or made to order. All kinds of yummies.”

And if catfish or pizza happen to be on your mind, Giuseppe Gigliotti’s endorsement not only suggests a surprising menu variety but also affirms the high standards of both taste and service you can expect.

Skaggs Country Store & Grill isn’t just a stop on your route; it’s an experience that nurtures the soul through good food, attentive care, and a clean, welcoming environment. For anyone seeking a genuine Texas diner with robust flavors and down-to-earth hospitality, this spot deserves a place on your must-visit list.

Pretty friendly folks. Clean store. Good deli food. Big truck fuel pump, prepay inside.

They serve great food. Always fresh in their deli, and they have made to order items as well. The place is always clean as their is a gentleman that is seen cleaning or changing filters or whatever nearly every time we go in there. He is always doing maintenance when we see him, and the employees keep the rest clean with shift chores.

Great food from the grill and great service! Excellent bacon cheeseburger!

I stop here for breakfast nearly every morning on my way to work. The staff and other customers are always friendly and polite. Their breakfast selection is hands down the best around. They don't always have my favorite drink in the cooler but I can overlook that with ease.

Stopped in for lunch after passing this place many times .. I had a bacon cheeseburger and it was easily one of the best burgers I've had in the area or anywhere for that matter.. I'll be a regular customer going forward and will recommend Skaggs to everyone I know ...

Come on now! If you want the best catfish, pizza, drinks and service come on down!

Excellent food, friendly people and convenient location! The food here is cooked fresh or made to order. All kinds of yummies.

Absolutely one fo the better eateries / gas stations. First off it's one of the few places locally that has Non-ethanol at the pumps and at an affordable price (as of this review 87 octane at 2.99). And don't sleep on their deli. With a number of elections from chicken to fried fish you can't go wrong. Very friendly staff as well and not too far off I-30. You would do an injustice if you didn't stop by at least once.
