Cheeseburger slider restaurant chain heading to East Texas

According to a permit filing, the Tyler location will be on the west side of town near S Southwest Loop 323 and Earl Campbell Parkway.

TYLER, Texas — A restaurant chain dedicated to serving cheeseburger sliders is coming to Texas, and some of its first locations will be in East Texas. 

Smalls Sliders is a drive-thru and walk-up ordering only restaurant offering customers sliders, fries and milkshakes. According to a filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, the Tyler location will be on the west side of town near S Southwest Loop 323 and Earl Campbell Parkway. 

TDLR states the the restaurant will be housed in a modular building with drive-thru and walk-up ordering and no indoor seating. The exact address is set to be 1781 S Southwest Loop 323. The project is set to start Nov. 1 and be completed on Jan. 10, 2025, the filing shows. 

In August 2023, a press release announced Smalls Sliders would bring its first locations to the Lone Star State. The announcement listed Tyler, Marshall, Longview, Lufkin and Nacogdoches as the restaurant chain's target cities at the time. 

There is currently no word on when and exactly where the other locations will be built. 

“This agreement is a pivotal step for Smalls Sliders as we continue our nationwide expansion across the country,” said Maria Rivera, CEO of Smalls Sliders. “We are thrilled to be working with Hank, Ryan and Steven and look forward to supporting their team as they expand our brand into the East Texas region. Backed by a wealth of knowledge, I am confident in their ability to make Smalls Sliders a highly sought after dining destination in a market with stellar growth potential.”

Right now, the nearest locations are in Louisiana with the closet to East Texas being Shreveport.
