The 15 Best Restaurants in Lawrence, Home of the University of Kansas
"Lee Meisel, a member of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe of North Dakota, learned the meat trade while growing up on his family’s farm and at butcher shops in North Dakota. Meisel relocated to Lawrence to study business at Haskell University, and in 2015, he and his partner, K, opened Leeway Franks, an unassuming spot that serves sausages, burgers, and patty melts. Frankfurters and bratwurst are made next door at the butcher shop, where you’ll find a variety of locally sourced meats. Away from the bustle of downtown, Leeway Franks is easy to miss, but supreme hot dogs and crispy tater tots make it worth the visit." - Erin Socha
