The String Bean Restaurant & Bar is located at the Northwest corner of Campbell and Mimosa (just east of Coit) in Richardson, Texas. The String Bean is THE place to get authentic Southern cuisine in the DFW area. Delicious sweet tea, meat loaf, pot roast, catfish, sweet potatoes, chicken 'n dumplins, cornbread, banana pudding. If you need some good comfort food in North Dallas, look no further.
The chicken-fried chicken is awesome! I can't rave enough about it. Same with the chicken-friend steak and mashed potatoes! I've loved the String Bean for years and followed them for lunch and dinner as they grew and moved locations. Good, consistent, down-home food. Staff is always friendly, service is good and it's a great option when you want home cooking and don't want to cook! Try the cornbread and their namesake: the string beans.
So the next time you don't feel like cooking but also don't feel like wrangling the kids through a sit down meal at a restaurant, give The String Bean a try. The kids can play, you can enjoy a nice conversation with your husband or friends and then everyone can eat and go home happy after dinner!

The String Bean was founded early in the fall of 1977 in an old Alfie's Fish & Chips building.
The abbreviated menu that Joe Gibson and Debbi McSwain acquired in February of 1980 in the purchase of the restaurant had only 4 vegetables, 4 entrees, 2 cold sandwiches, and 3 desserts.
Joe and Debbi were businees partners in this and one other venture for almost 3 years before they were married on Valentines Day in 1981.
As time passed, the menu of The String Bean and their family grew.
More entrees, burgers, daily specials and 3 kids all were added to the mix of what has come to be known as "The Bean" to many of their customers and friends.

My name is Dave Cogburn and I've been a regular customer at The String Bean Restaurant for over 20 years.
It is without a doubt my favorite restaurant.
I am taking a copywriting course and my first assignment was to write a piece about my favorite restaurant and this is the result.
This came as a complete surprise to Debbi, the owner, and my desire is to share with you my thoughts of what makes The String Bean a restaurant that you, too, will want to enjoy on a regular basis for years to come.
