"Wichita is fickle about its barbecue, but for the past three years, Station 8 has been the favorite place to fill up on St. Louis-style ribs, brisket, pulled pork, and hotlinks. The restaurant is set up inside a converted fire house near downtown, and the owner has decorated the space with antique phone booths, vintage fire engine toys, and a 1940s Wurlitzer jukebox. It’s a lunch-only place that serves heaping plates buffet style, and it’s always packed. Be sure to grab a classic bottle of soda from the display case." - Denise Neil
