Ray's Drive In

Best Burgers in East Texas since 1959

Ray’s Drive-In is a family-owned business that has operated in Lufkin, Texas, for over 60 years. In 1959, J.C. and Opal Ray purchased a drive-in on Timberland Drive and called it Ray’s Drive-In. Brothers Jerry and Billy became full partners in that business in the 1970s.

Though it’s no longer 1959, Ray’s Drive-In has stood the test of time and has become a tradition in Lufkin and all of East Texas.

Though much has stayed the same, there have been a few changes to the menu over the year.

They do gluten-free and added taco salads and catfish baskets, to name a few. When it gets right down to it, Ray’s Drive-In is just delicious food, and they are still doing it the way they’ve always done it.

What People Are Saying

Carlos R.

"I had lunch here with co-workers, and I had the Ray's Special, which was the tastiest, juiciest, and most amazing burger I've ever had. They know how to make burgers here, so give them a try. You won't be disappointed."
Seth Stevens.

“Just a cool diner. Has that old times feeling. The food was excellent. And the people were super friendly. A old friend kind of vibe. Indoor/ Outdoor seating.”
Mikey G.

“This is a great local burger joint that anyone visiting Lufkin must enjoy. Their burgers taste dramatically different than most of the other fast food places that serve hamburgers, and in a positive way! Really good juicy burgers, with grilled buns. The staff is nice, the atmosphere is amazing, and the best part is it's one of the old style retro drive-in burger joints as well.”
